CARLYLE HARRIS DEAD
Murderer of Helen Potts Electrocuted at
Noon.
HIS LIPS SEALED TO THE LAST
Went to His Doom Without Making a
Confession A Statement for
the Press.
Sing Sing, N. Y., May 8. Carlyle W.
Harris, the young medical student,
whose trial and conviction in New York
city for poisoning Helen Potts, to whom
he had been secretly married, has at
tracted so much attention, was electro
cuted In prison here today.
Harris had been told when the execu
tion would take place. He retired, early
last night showing more evidences of
excitement than usual, his heretofore
strong nerves giving evidence of. strain
in the unusual quantity of cigarettes he
smoked. He slept little during the
night, rose early this morning and
looked over a manuscript he had pre
pared to be given to the press after his
death. He seemed cooler this morning,
and ate a light breakfast at 8 o'clock.
At 9 o'clock the medical witnesses began
to arrive, and half an hour later the
fires were started under the boilers
which operate the engine which runs
the dynamo furnishing the deadly agent
of execution. His mother and brother
had already taken a final leave of him,
but occupied a room in a neighboring
hotel, from the window of which the
black flag could be seen when hoisted as
a signal that his spirit had taken flight.
The death warrant was read at 8:30.
The reading had no visible effect on the
condemned man. Half an hour later
the prison chaplain spent an hour with
him, then one of the medical examiners
visited him and found him showing
some signs of nervousness, but nothing
more. Harris did not ask for morphine
or any stimulant, but wanted a couple
of oranges, which were given him. He
was shaved and bad his hair cut at
10 :30, and put on a new suit of clothes.
At 12:15 the witnesses were conducted
to the execution chamber and the death
flag placed in position to hoist. The
witnesses numbered 27, consisting of
seven physicians, ten newspaper men
and ten state officials and friends of the
warden, arrived in the execution cham
ber. The witnesses took seats in a semi
circle around the death chair, and every
thing being in readiness two keepers
brought Harris into the chamber, ac
companied by the chaplain. He looked
pale as he entered the room, paused an
instant on the threshold and calmly
surveyed the assembled witnesses. One
of the keepers indicated the chair to
him, and without even a glance of curi
osity at the death-dealing machine he
stepped forward and took a seat.
PROTESTED HIS INNOCENCE.
As he did so he requested permission
to speak. This was accorded him. He
said, speaking as if every word cost him
a great effort :
"I have no further reservation to
make. I desire to say I am absolutely
innocent." Then he settled back in his
chair and the electrodes were quickly
attached.
The signal was given, the lever clicked
sharply, the form of the condemned man
stiffened till the straps creaked, while
1760 volts passed through his frame. At
the end of fwo seconds the current was
reduced to 150 volts, which was con
tinued 54 seconds longer, when Harris
was pronounced dead. As the current
.'was fully shut off the body dropped back
limp. An examination showed no signs
of life, and it was evident that death
was instantaneoue. The execution was
most successful. His relatives will take
the body away this afternoon.
THE WORLD'S FAIR.
An Knelish
Journalist's
the Show.
Opinion of
Tokonto, Ont., May 8. Sir James
Long, proprietor of the Sheffield (Eng
land) Telegraph, who visited the world's
fair last week with a party of British
journalists, has given his impressions
of and the prospects of the fair. He
said he considered the Chicago show the
greatest ever held, the most extensive,
the most costly, and architecturally the
moBt imposing. It was a question of
money and never before had so much
money been contributed for such a pur
pose. The buildings were much ahead
of those at Paris, but be was disap
pointed at the unready state of the ex
hibition. Strangely enough, the most
backward exhibits were those which the
Americans themselves were making
In his district in Sheffield, all but two
manufacturers had practically boycotted
the Chicago fair on account of the Mc-
Kinley act preventing them from selling
goods in the United States. He ap
proved this action at the time they de
cided it, but he now thought it was a
mistake. Many British merchants
were losing the opportunity of a life-time
for advertising. If it had not been for
the McKinley act, England's exhibit
at Chicago would have been the best
that country had ever made. He did
not think the exhibition of paintings
equal to that made at Vienna. He did
not think it would be a financial success.
TWO BATTLES FOVOHT.
Nicaragua
Revolutionists
Victorious.
Are Again
Panama, May 8. With Santiago Mor
ales at their head, the revolutionists of
Nicaragua have established a provisional
government over that republic, and are
preparing to strike a crushing blow to
President Sacass. This important news
is contained in a special cable which has
just been received from San Juan del
Sur, on the Nicaraguan coast. Head
quarters of the provisional government
have been established at Granada, the
city which first fell into the hands of the
revolutionists. Santiago Morales is the
provisional president, ex-President Za
vola minister of war, and Eduardo Mon
tiel general-in-chief of the revolutionary
army. Around Granada have been con
centrated the leading divisions of the
revolutionary army, and from that point
of course all operations are conducted.
In addition to Granada and Masaya,
which they captured on April 29th, the
revolutionists have taken Rivas, Jinc
tepe and Chantales.
Gives Satisfaction.
St. Paul, May 8. The nomination of
William Lochren to the important post
of commissioner of pensions, is received
with greatest satis
faction in the north
west, where he is
one of the most pop
ular men. He is
judge of the circuit
court of Minnesota,
having been appoint
ed once by a repub
lican governor. He
retained the position
M.lCMRE.M for three terms.
Judge Lochren was born in Vermont in
1836. In 1857 he went to Minnesota
and practiced law. He enlisted in the
first Minnesota regiment and served
with distinction throughout the war.
He went into the famous charge at
Gettysburg, which checked Pickett's on-
laught, as a lieutenant, and came out
in command of his regiment, every offi
cer above his grade having been killed
or wounded.
Henderson Sentenced for Life.
Oregon City, May 8. This afternoon
the case of the State vs. William Hender
son was called in the circuit court on a
rehearing ordered by the supreme court
in reversing the decision of the lower
court, and the prisoner was given an op
portunity to enter another plea, which
opportunity he took to plead guilty to
murder in the second degree. Hon.
Henry E. McGinn appeared for the
prisoner and C. H. Dye for the state,
and in behalf of the prosecuting at
torney his deputy accepted the plea
rather than put the county to the ex
pense of a new trial. Time was waived
and Judge Mc Bride at once sentenced
Henderson to be confined in the peni
tentiary for life.
La Grippe.
During the prevalence of the grippe
the past seasons it was a noticeable fact
that those who -depended upon Dr.
King's Hew Discovery, not only had a
speedy recovery, but escaped all of the
troublesome after effects of the malady.
This remedv seems to have a peculiar
power in effecting rapid cures not only
in cases of la grippe, but in all diseases
of throat, chest and lungs, and has cured
cases of asthma and hay fever of long
standibg. Try it and be convinced. It
won't disappoint. Free trial bottles at
Snipes & Kinersly's drug store.
Square Up.
Charles L. Richmond, having disposed
of his grocery and livery stable business
in The Dalles, has placed all accounts in
the hands of L. A. Esteb for collection.
All parties are required to make settle
ment within thirty days.

with the considera

his rank, and when,
dying requested
that . one of the
BERT Kamehameba fami
ly should succeed him. His request was
not complied with, and in consequence
Prince Albert was compelled to live a
life of comparative idleness. He is 43
years of age, is of magnificent physique
and is regarded by some as the hand
somest Hawaiian in Honolulu. The
only time that he has appeared promi
nently fn public life was in. the legisla
tive session of 1880.
Another French Scandal.
Paris, May 8. T. Turpin, the inventor
of the new explosive, melanite, has in
volved many of the French government
officials and high
officers by the
French army in an
other scandal, sec
ond only to the
Panama scandal.
About two years ago
Turpin gave the
secret of his explo
sive to the French '
government. Short-
lv after this he sold M.iuR.Pikl
it to foreign governments, for which he
was convicted of treason and sentenced,
to five years imprisonment. He was af
terwards pardoned by President Carnot.
Turpin now says that high officers have
sold both melanite and its formula to
foreign governments, and avows his in
tention of exposing the names of the
guilty men.
AMERICAN BABIES.
They Are Claiming; Much Attention and .
Valuable Time from Foreijrn Writers.
It is now American babies who are
commending themselves to foreign eyes.
An Englishwoman visiting- this country
writes home for publication: "You could
not imagine anything more quaint
ly delightful than American small
children and babies. They, up to four,
wear the dearest little close caps of all
colors, but generally white the queer
est, prettiest clothes all just touching
the ground. It is easy to see where
Kate Greenaway got her models for
her quaint pictures; they are exactly
here.
. "Then the baby carriages nothing
approaching our clumsy perambulators.
They are all of either bent wood or good
wicker work, yellowish white, like bam
boo, and openwork all around, on per
feet springs, and most of them rock up
and down when not being wheeled, and
fixed large parasols overhead in all col
ors and pretty devices.
"Half lying under this bright shade is
a round-faced, pale, very pretty,
piquant baby, with unusually dark
eyes, with an expression in them as if
there was nothing they didn't know; a
tiny white silk cap on its tiny head;
rings secured to its wrists by a ribbon
on its fat fingers; the daintiest white
pillows, white fancy coverlets over its
little body, and an air of cushions and
coziness about it. Such is the American
baby."
This is very delightful, even if it
sounds as if the American baby were a
species newly discovered by intrepid
explorers.
The total recorded immigration to
this country is 16,004,u3, almost, a
many as the whole population of Spain.
