SALEM, Or., Nov. 15. A report
has been gaining circulation here
that James A. Finch, hanged at the
Oregon Penitentiary Friday for the
murder of Ralph Fisher, died from
"physic, shock" between the time the
trap was sprung and the instant
when his body jerked taut the hang
man's noose. Dr. J. N. Smith, who
gave the official announcement of
Finch's death, says Finch did not die
form physic causes, but front a brok
en spinal cord.
"Usually in death by hanging,"
Dr. Smith said, "the check ligament,
which supports a process in the neck,
is broken, and the process, thus un
supported, presses upon the spina!
cord, causing death; but tn the case
of Fiueh tins usual manner of-death
did not hold. Finch met Instan
taneous death when the rone jerked
taut, the spinal eord itself having
been broken, and not the ligament.
"Death W hanging does not result
from strangulation or suffocation, as
some say, either," continued the doc
tor, "but is a direct result of the
breaking of the ligament which sup
ports the process already mentioned"
No postmortem examination, as re
quested by Finch in his speech on the
gallows, was held in this city.

Ilenmins of Finch Were Interred
Without Ceremony,
No greater service has been rendered to
womankind than the giving' by Dr. FredricK H.
Stearns of his remarkable prescription for the
many weaknesses with which women are
afflicted.
This great remedy is being placed on the market by the New
York and London Drug Company and is labeled "Nyal's Vegetable
Prescription," "a boon to womankind"
The local drug firm, Fullerton & Richardson, are agents for
Roseburg. They report as follows:
"Nyal" remedies are superior to all of . the highly exploited
patent medicines, but the best of the Nyal's line is the "Vegetable
Prescription."
"During the many yoars we have sold drugs in Roseburg we
have never heard as much favorable commendation of any other
medicine. Nyal's Vegetable Prescription has received the praise of
every woman who has used it. ,
' Other Nyal's medicines which are worthy of mention at this
particular season are:
Nyals Baby Cough Remedy for colds. Re
lieves difficult breathing'. '
Nyal's Croup Ointment.
Nyal's Cod Liver Oil Compound without the
oil. It is betterthan "Vinol" or Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil and is an ideal system builder and - tonic.

tators and the relatives and friends
of the dead-man chose this time for
