From the John Day Sentinel.
On last Friday, January 8tb, occurred
Bt Canyon City the execution of Ming
How the Chinaman who was convicted
of the Murder of Ah Fub, on September
24th.
Early in the forenoon on the day of the
exeoution people began to arrive
Canyon from all directions, each bent on
seeing the condemned Chinaman's "pig
tail snap on the gallowB," and before
noon the streets of the plaoe were almost
thronzed with people. Chinamen were
seen trailing in from all directions, each
apparantly breathing down malediotionB
upon the man whose life would now
soon pay the penalty for one of the most
horrible murders ever oommitted by
mortal man.
Shortly before the hour set for the ex
eoution Lung On, the interpreter, wai
called into the cell where the condemned
man awaited his fate, and the death
warrant read and interpreted by him
The twelve witnesses were then summon
ed to the scene of the exeoution and
awaited the arrival of the victim. How
ever they were not held in suspense
long, as the last one had soarcely arrived
when a dull, heavy tread was heard on
the stairs; the door was opened and
Ming How, looking pale and haggard
was ushered upon the scene by Sheriff
Cresap and Deputy Sheriff Yergerson
The Chinaman seemed a trifle nervous
bat considering the ciroumstanoes, he
apparently oonsigned himself to the in
evitable in a very calm and composed
manner. His hands were tied by Deputy
Yergerson, the Chinaman meanwhile
watching very olosely every move made
by Yergerson while in this aot. Lang
On, the interpreter was then called who
asked him if t rbad anything to say
befort, biiria oiecited. He replied wmat
was interpreted to us to be: "I killed
Ah Fuh and have nothing to say." He
was then led out directly under the gal
lows and his les strapped together.
During this part of the preparation he
began to reel to and fro and would have
undoubtedly fallen to the floor had not
Mr. Cresap taken bold of him and stead
ied him. Just as the rope was being
slipped over his head; he looked straight
at Lung On and said what was afterward
interpreted to the reporter to be : "That's
all right." The black cap Was then
drawn over bis faoe, the soaffold tripped
by Sheriff Cresap and the condemned
Chinaman desoended like a shot a dis
tance of eight feet tightening the rope
with a sickening thud. He gave several
jerks with his shoulders and then all
was quiet. It took about ten minutes
from the time he was led up the stairs
onto the scaffold until he was dangling
at the end of the rope, utterly imperviouB
to the maledictions being poured out upon
him by his fellow oountrymen, who were
scattered profusely along the fence and
on the adjoining hill.
In about 8 minutes after the fall Drs.
Ashtord&Fell.the examining physicians,
pronounced bim dead and the witnesses
repaired to the sheriff's office and sign
ed the death warrant. Here came the
most trying part of the whole soene to the
reporter. For lo ! after signing his name
he was about to resign it as he could not
bring himself to believe that those hiero
glyphics which stared him in the face
could be his signature. So intent was
he on watching the exeoution that he
did not realize that his nerves had been
considerably shocked.
After the allotted time which the ex
ecuted is required to hang by the neck
had exoired. be was lowered into the
coffin and taken in charge by tbe under
taker, who hauled him out to the ceme
tery and buried him along side the two
oriminals who had previously been hung
in Canyon.
The execution was a complete success
in avery particular; the exeouted was un
doubtedly unconscious as soon as be
reached the end of the rope, and the gal
lows worked to perfection. Muoh oredit
is due Sheriff Cresap in not keeping the
oomlemned man in suspense any great
length of time.
Should a stranizer have visited the
court yard at the time of the execution,
it would have been difficult to convince
him that so solemn an ocoaaion as tbe
taking of a human being's lite on the
scaffold was the oause of the gathering
there. The crowd had more She appear
ance of a party of picknickers waiting
for an excursion train, than a ooncourse
of people witnessing a irfrwff (king -his
departure from this lirnile the
doctors were making tbeir nunl examina
tion of the deceased someone had the
audacity to ask Dr. Fell to remove his
cigar, as the smoke might be oiensive to
the oorpse.
Shortly after the execution was over
the road between John Pay and Canyon
was literally lined with oelestials re
turning home, and each wearing a smile
of sweet revenge. It seems that the ex
ecuted Chinaman was a sort of a stray
sheep, so to speak, for whom his country
men had no use, and were .all glad to
know that he was out of the way.

A White Woman With a Chinese Husband.
Spokane Review.
A full-blooded Mongolian with a full-
blooded Cauoasian for a wife was the
strange anomaly that greeted the night
clerk of the Columbia hotel late on Mon
day evening.
The gentlemnn with the queue walked
up to the register with the dignity of an
fcnglish duke and subscribed the name
of L. J. Vinagnr and wife, San Franoisoo.
Accompanying the couple was an un
developed speoimen of a poodle dog.
The women was apparently about 25
years of age and a pronounced brunette,
while her esoort was abigh-oheek-boned
Chinaman. The couple attraoted con
Biderable attention from the guests of the
house and comments of all sorts were
ventured.
They seemed plentifully supplied with
cash and were apparently happy in each
other's confidence. During yesterday the
reputed wife of the Moogol dropped
remark to the effect thut Mr. Vinagar
was merely ber Chinese cook andnother
husband at all and that she was en route
to Vancouver to join ber family. This
oircumstaace led to an ipvestigation on
the party of the hotel proprietor, but be.

Vinagar and her pigtail icort bad pack

Thev Attempt to Rob Joe liatin' S.ilonn at
Prairie City.
John Day Sentinel.
Last Thursday night Jerry Dailey and
Burt Babcock, two youths ot I'rairie
city, made an unsuccessful attempt to
rob tho saloon of Joe Bates at that plaoe,
Theyiwere discovered just in tbe nick o'
time by Deputy Marshal Ouerney, who
immediately proceeded to arrest them.
To this the young hoodlums objected,
and endeavored to take leg-bail for
security, but a ball from Mr. Guerney's
revolver soon persuaded them to stop.
The shot took effect in Dniley's lpft leg
just below the knee. At last accounts
they were languishing in the Prairie City
jail. This may serve as a lesson to the
rest of the hoodlum element of that
plaoe, which is rather too abundant in
that otherwise orderly town. Both boys
are from highly respectable families, and
it is a shame and disgrace that they
should oonduct themselves iu such a

10-year-old boy of Camas Prairie, was

and has become notorious in the com

boys who might do better in the reform
school.

Why
So Anxiously Concerned ?
The prestige of the Royal Baking Powder and
its constant success are matters of anxious con
cern to envious competitors.
It is noted that advertisements of other baking1
powders are filled with spleen, malice and -misrepresentation
against the Royal, more than with
honest claims as to their own goods.
That the Royal Baking Powder makes finer,
whiter, sweeter, more wholesome cookery, the
ladies who have tried other kinds are willing to
testify and tell their neighbors; this fact is a
serious concern to all competitors.
The superb quality of the Royal Baking Pow
der, over and above all other kinds, is never so
manifest as when tried in comparison. It has
greater strength and docs not deteriorate with
age, the last spoonful in the can being as good
as the first. All over this country the "Royal"
has the lead; this is why makers of other brands,
envious of its sale and popularity, talk so much
about it.
