Then the executioner grasps the handle, gives a vigorous twist and death is instantaneous. The entire machine is made of iron and ordinarily weighs several hundred pounds. Persons who have witnessed all sorts of capital punishment are unanimous in the opinion that garroting is the most revolting and appalling of all. It is not always as expedit.ous and its inventor made it possible to be. A vicious execut.oner can prolong it practically at will, and herein is the sys- tem's great drawback, as it is now con- structed. Cases are citable in which the process was prolonged 20 or 30 minutes, even three-quarters of an hour. The executioner HORSE BIT MRS. MORRIS. > Now She Is in the Hospital With an Inflamed Thigh.

Pe ee ee Theodore Mori, Eight-Year- Old, Fatally Injured ina Runaway Accident. HIS SKULL WAS CRUSHED. WOMEN STOPPED THE INFURIATED HORSE AT THE RISK. OF THEIR LIVES. Pinioned between the shafts of a cart, drawn by a mad horse, 88-year-old Theodore Mor! of 5323 Manchester road was dragged several blocks. The runaway horse kicked the boy tn the head, inflicting a probably fatal injury, and he was bruised all over his body. But for an act of almost unparalleled bravery on the part of two women, the youth would have been dashed to instant | death. The heroines are Miss Emma RBochten- Riggs, 6607 Marquette avenue. They rushed out into the street as the infuriated horse stopped the runaway. They then lifted the bleeding boy out of iggs and | his perilous place and called Dr. H. Jones of 5436 Manchester avenue. Meanwhile the owner of the horse, Charlee Mori, uncle of the injured lad, arrived upon the scene. A few minutes prior the elder Mori had left is horse in front of 6625 Tyler avenue. His nephew remained in the cart to hold the horse. Soon after Mori entered the house, the horse took fright without any appar- ent provocation and dashed away. WAS FOUND The boy was thrown forward out of the Story of Absolute Destitution Told bya cart. He lodged on the shafts and became entangled in the lines that hung loosély. The horse plunged wildly about, and®the boy was kicked in the head. His skull was fractured and there is but little hope of recovery. Several men along the route tried to stop the horse, but failed. The boy’s screams at- tracted much attention. Mrs. Riggs and her visitor, Miss Boch- tenbach, heard the Startling noise.

Cash wheat sold for $1 a bushel on sam- ple. The farmer’s dream was real'zed and though the vision was fleeting it was one of the many indications that he is wise in holding on to his wheat for higher prices. Only one carload was sold at $1 a bushel. It was choice grade and bought from the Brinson-Judd Gra'n Company for seeding purposes. It was raised in Sedgwick Coun- ty, Kan. Dollar wheat cut a figure in the trading @ second time on the call, when 5,000 bush- els of May wheat sold for $1 a bushel. It was bought by the D. R. Francis Commis- , sion Co. from C. H. Albers. It was the first option trade made at the price in six years. When the stentorian voice of Caller Joe Carr was heard announcing the sale a mighty shout arose. Men threw their arms about wildly. Some almost danced for Joy. Others rushed out into the corridors and spread the news. After the sale May wheat was held at $1.00%. The September and December options again broke all records Friday, end got within hailing distance of the dollar mark. December opened at %c, yc over Thurs- 'day’s close. September showed a 3%c advance over night, opening at 964¢c. The big traders were about the pit early. David R.

There was some chaffing and sparring for wind, during which lack of active trading caused the December option to ease off to 9%%c. Suddenly Tom Francis jumped into the pit. “Five and a half for December,” he cried. HIS CHRISTMAS DIME, ' PEUD OF THE RUNGE BOYS CHAS. PAULFERE SAYS IT WAS THE LAST MONEY HE HAS TOUCHED.

FRED A TARGET FOR ALBERT. Two Bullets Answer an Argument in a Dispute Over the Division of Some Property. “‘My brother tried to kill me,” said Fred W. Runge of 2013 Franklin avenue, as he rushed into the warrant office at the Four Courts Friday. Runge carried a mashed bullet in his hand. He said the ball struck a water pitcher and saved his Hfe. A second shot also failed to strike him. Albert Runge is charged with firing the shots. A warrant for assault with intent to kill was issued. The shooting took place at the Runge home on Franklin avenue. For several weeks the brothers have been in a dispute about the div'ision of some property. Friday morning the subject was renewed. the open door of a second floor bedroom. Albert stood on the stalr- way leading to the room. “What are you going to do about this property?’ Fred inquired. According to his story he received a startling reply. He claims that without a word of warn- ing his brother commenced to shoot. “I dodged behind a dresser in the bed- room and the bullet struck a pitcher of water on the dresser,’’ Fred explained. The feud between the Runge brothers has attracted os attention before and it is conetantly growing warmer. MERCHANT SHOT AND ROBBED. Dastardly Crime of Unknown Men at Plattin Station, Mo. .

Some of the big fellows soid to realize and the price shot back to %'‘ge. There was another advance to %c. The heavy traders bought and sold by turns and kept the market bobbing up and down until the most sensational foreign report of the year reached the Exchange. It was from Beerbohm, the recognized English authority. Mr. Beerbohm sees a prospect of $2 wheat. He says the entire European crop will amount to 1.264,000,000 bushels. He says that European consumption will call for 1.648,000,000, leaving a deficit of 384,000,000 bushels. The United States crop he estimates at 550,000,000 bushels and the consumption 366,- 000,000 bushels. This will leave the United States only 185,000,000 busheis to apply on the European deficit. Even after the United States surplus is shipped to Europe there will, he says, still rematn a deficit of 199,- 000,000 bushels. 3 In concluding his report Mr. Beerbohm says: “From these figures we should have not $1 wheat, but $2 wheat.” It was on this report that the bulls based their raid Friday. After its receipt they ran December to 97% cents. It was the most exciting buige of the year. Five min- utes after the bulls got to work the De- cember option advanced 5% cents over Thursday's close, The September option advanced to 97\c, 4uc gain on the day. The government report kept the market up. It was even more bullish than Beer. bohm's, as it estimated the Unlted States crop at 458,000,000 bushela instead of 0.00,- “0 bushels. On this showing December ad- vanced to 937\c. ¥ WHEAT’S HIGH-WATER MARK. MRS. ANNA ELLIS CAUGHT AT A CURVE BY A MISSOURI PACIFIC TRAIN. A WOMAN WITH A SAD HISTORY. Crushed Under the Wheels of a Train. Near Howard Sta- tion, Mrs. Anna Ellis, a seamstress, about # years old, met a eudden and horr'ble death at 6 o'clock Thursday evening on Barron avenue at Howard Station, five miles west of the city. The instrument of death was the power- ful engine that pulls train No. 2 of the Missouri Pacific Railroad, due at Howard Station at 6 p. m. About 150 feet east of Barron avenue there is a sharp curve in the railway tracks. Mrs. Ellis had been to del'ver some sew- ing to a family on “Dago Hill” and was returning to the city. The curve is al- most shut in by steep embankments and there is scarcely room for pedestrians on either side of the tracks. As the train turned into the curve at full speed, the engineer, Healy, saw the woman about fifty feet ahead. He sounded the whistle and applied the brakes. The woman gave a frightened | glance backward and ran. Her steps were too elow and the herculean efforts of the engineer too late. The giant engine struck her. The body twisted and she fell head downward. The ponderous wheels rolled over her, crushing her head. A few yards more and the train stopped. Engineer Healy and Conductor Wheeler rushed to the crushed and bieeding body. The dismembered form was picked up, placed im the baggage car and brought to Unioh Station. from where the City Under- taker’e wagon conveyed it to the Morgue, Mrs. Ellis’ life was not a happy one. Her home its said to have been at Fort Smith, Ark.. where her family is well-to-do, and where she moved in most respectabie cir- cles.
