the death penalty .
It is Imposed on the Beattie-Meeker
Murderer.
S eattle , October 20.—Thomas Blanck,
the murderer of Charles H. Birdwell and
William Jeffery and the would-be mur
derer of Detective Cudihee, was to-day
found guilty of murder in the first de
gree and the death penalty imposed.
This Was not done, however, until he
had made two desperate attempts to es
cape and forced the Sheriff to have him
taken into court by main force. Blanck
was ugly at the long-drawn-out trial,
and was watching for the first oppor
tunity to escape, which he thought pre
sented itself while he was being taken
upstairs to the courtroom between two 1
guards. One guard had a pair of nip ,
pers around his right wrist and the other
was walking at his side. Suddenly Blanck
struck the man who had the nippers on
the jaw, knocking him down the stairs.
The other guard jumped after them and
grabbed Blanck by the collar. A fierce
fight ensued, in which the prisoner was
finally floored by a blow on the right ■
temple from a revolver in the hands of
the guard he had first struck. Blood i
covered the marble floor at the base of
the stairs, and the prisoner left a trail
of blood on the way back to the jailer’s i
office.
After he was ready to go again to court
he became sullen, and refused to move.
Nippers were put on each hand, but he .
still refused to move. Suddenly he i
sprang to his feet, shot both bands out •
.and then commenced to kick ¿.nd bite at
his guards. Jailer Munroe tried to grab '
him by the throat, but Blanck caught .
the jailer’s finger in his mouth and bit
off a large piece of flesh. The fight
lasted three minutes, and it took five ,
men to overpower him. He still refused I
to go to court, and It. was only by the ,
combined force of four men that he was ’
taken in. His counsel presented no wit
nesses. This was a great surprise, as it
was expected a strong fight would be .
made on the insanity plea. The jury
was out thirty-five minutes, and brought •
in a verdict of murder in the first de
gree and imposed the death penalty.
Blanck’s record before he commenced
killing people here is still a secret, which
he has not divulged even to his attorney.

nearly all of the courageous thousands
of women who registered at the varibus
booths in Chicago yesterday- For the
first time they will vote in November
for the trustees of the university under
the new State law. Each party, has a
woman candidate—Mrs. Lucy Flower,
the Republican, and Dr. Juliet Holmes
Smith, the Democratic: The women
turned out in great numbers. They went
to the engine-houses, cigar stores, hotels,
billiard parlors, shoe stores, clothing
stores, livery offices andlbarns, but the
universal report was that the men were
“ nice.” They ceased smoking when the
women entered the places. They also
removed their hats, something they
probably had not done before on regis
tration day within their memory. In
nearly all cases the women were ushered
politely to thfe head of the line, and at
one booth they received a rose in com
pliment of' their maidenjote.

there was much inttrest and a compara
tively large registrtWn, and so far as
the women voting il Cook county is con
cerned they represent-the best class. The
returns show that th ^disreputable wom
en took no interest in the registering.
In the Worst precinct^ of the First Ward
only one or two napes of women were
registered, and that pas not from choice
so much as from persuasion by male
companions. This fblieves the situation
of a sincere dread.; It was argued last
week that the disreputable people would
flock together and overcome the votes of
the members of good society.
Another noteworthy thing is the en
thusiasm of the colored sisters. In the
West Side of the Second Ward, where
the colored vote is inost numerous, the
women registered freely. There are sev
eral ways of accounting for this, but the
best one perhaps is. that the colored
male voter seldom fails to turn up on
registration days. The records show
that in comparison!'the colored people
vote more nearly to the limit of their
population than any other class. The
enthusiasm of the male voter has been
apparently communicated to the women
folk.
The social prominence of many of the
women .who registered may not be rec
ognized, since they were obliged to dis
card the Christian names of their hus
bands. This was something they had not
counted upon and - almost invariably
they had to be requested to give their
own Christian names. Several Women
of nearly 80 were in line to-day. Said
one of them :
“All things come to those that wait.”
Harriett Hosmer, the sculptress, went
to the registration booth at No. 248
Goethe street soon after it was open, and
was pleased at thé courtesy shown by
the officials.
