W. R. Lloyd paid the death penalty
t th ttat penitentiary for the mur
der of Clinton I. Baun of Independ
ence on the night of September 1,
last. Lloyd dropped through the trap
Monday morning at 10:04 o'clock and
at 10:17 wai pronounced dead by pris
on physician B. L. Edwards and Dr.
W. B. Mott.
"I a in a victim of bad company and
booie," said Lloyd when asked by
Deputy Warden J. W. Lillie if he had
anything to say. "I was drunk when
I committed the crime and was booze
in the car. From my boyhood I have
associated with bad company. I have
no ill feeling toward anyone and want
no one to have hard feelings against
me."
Lloyd, before he went to the execu
tion chamber, bequeathed his tobacco
to Tom Murray, who is under sen
tence of death for the murder of John
Sweeney, prison guard, in the peni
tentiary break of last August except
a pack of cigarettes in which two or
three cigarettes remained. These he
gave to Prison Chaplain C. H. Bryan.
"I am going to use these in a talk
some day at the boys' training
school," said the chaplain.
Lloyd, when visited by the chaplain
late Sunday, was utterly unrepent
ant and "hard boiled," damning every
one he eould think of. Most of the
night he spent at the windows of the
little room in which he was locked
When visited by the chaplain next
morning he was rn a repentant mood.
and according to the chaplain, seemed
to have undergone a complete change
overnight
The chaplain pronounced the execu
tion the most perfect he had ever wit
nessed, there being no hitch anywhere.
Lloyd was accompanied on the scaf
fold by Principal Keeper Miller, two
guards and the chaplain.
Among the persons present from
Independence were Mrs. Clinton I.
Baun. widow of Lloyd's victim; Irvin
Baun, his brother; Mrs. Irvin Baun,
R. L. Gaines, W. A. Dickinson, Henry
Oberson and Frank Laws.
The two women wanted to enter the
execution chamber and see the hang
ing, but were not allowed to do so.
On the night of the murder Lloyd
engaged Baun, a taxi cab driver, to
take him to Albany. He shot and
killed Baun on the road, evidently for
robbery, stole the ear, and was caught
a few days later at The Dalles.
Lloyd was 26 years old. Prior to
the crime for which he was executed
be served two years in the Oregon
penitentiary for forgery. He now has
two brothers in the Oregon prison,
Tom Lloyd, who wavreceived July 1,
this year, to serve a year for burglary,
and H. L. Lloyd, received June 6 to
serve two years for forgery. Both
were sent up from Lane county. An
other'brother, George, is in the state
training school. Superintendent Gil
bert of the training school says
George Lloyd, who is 16, is a model
inmate. Last Saturday he requested
to be allowed to visit his condemned
brother, and was allowed to see him
at the penitentiary.

Heart Massage Is One
of Surgical Marvels
The heart is a pump, and Its
work can be done for it quite well
for a little while by hand, while its
own power fails, and it takes a rest.
One has to remember that, normally
it never hns a rest from the moment
of life until death. And what hap
pens in cases of heart massage Is
that the surgeon rapidly makes his
way to the organ, and, taking it
flrmlv mid Eently in the nana,
squeezes it so many tunes to me
minute, thus keeping the stream of
the blood circulating. If all goes
well, the heart gradually recovers
itself, and begins to beat of its own
accord.
Thus It practically amounts t
this that a person may actually me
nnd be brought to life again.
There was a time when it would
have been thought madness to touch
the heart. Yet wonderful things
were done in the World war in re
moving bullets and shrapnel and In
repairing heart rents, though often
it is better to let sleeping dogs He
undisturbed, nnd the surgeon Is
still very chary of touching the
great vital organ. For. though the
heart Is not so fragile as we once
fancied. It has a queer temper. Its
nervous mechanism is nut a HttleJ
touchy, and easily thrown out of
gear. London Times.
Cassandra of Troy
Cassandra was the daughter of
Priam, king of Troy, and was re
garded as a prophetess. She, dur
ing the king siege of Troy, uttered
various predictions of impending
calamities which were disregarded
at th time but verified in the event.
During the plunder of Troy, B. C.
1184, she took refuge in the temple
of Minerva, where she was bar
barously treated by AJax. In the
division of the spoils she fell to the
lot of Agamemnon, who brought her
home, where she excited the jeal
ousy of Clytemnestra. In conse
quence, Cassandra and Agamemnon
were both murdered by Clytemnes
tra and her paramour.
Cassandra is suid to have been
surpassingly beautiful and to have
had many suitors In the flourishing
times of classic Troy. Chicago

Organization of Scientists
The Royal society grew out of
two small groups of friends, who
met occasionally in London and Ox
ford to discuss scientific questions,
about the middle of the Seventeenth
century. These were organized into
a definite society in lfiGO, and two
years later the society was granted
a charter by Charles II and Incor
porated as the Itoynl society. Its
early meetings took place In Ores
ham college, and afterwards In
Crane court. In 17 the place of
meeting was transferred to Somer
set house, and In 1 S57 to Burlington
house, London. London Mall.

Papal Triple Crown
The tiara, a high cap of gold

with a mound and cross of gold at
the top, is the triple crown of the
pope. It is ornamented with pre

Is without Inscription. A symbolic

Sea Oil Wells
Sea-going vessels frequently re
port having passed through parts
nf the ocean where the surface of
the water was covered with oil for
a distance of perhaps many miles
The source of this oil Is frequently
mystery. In some cases It Is
known to be due to oil-carrying ves
sels which have sunk, but In others
It is believed to be due to oil wells
on the bottom from which the oil
rises. In some cases It has been
observed bubbling out of the water,
as If a steady stream of It were
rising. These apparent submarine
oil wells are most common In the
Gulf of Mexico and off the western
coast of South America.

Importance of Light
Too much light can he as bad for

light Is now supplied so readily and
so cheaply that It Is a temptation

to direct It with too great In

you ever try to rend a hook or news

have yon will understand how ex

Two Men and their
Credit
. -
TWO men walked into this bank the other day both
asking for a substantial loan. One of them secured
all that he required. To the other we could not and did
not extend credit.
The reason is this: The man who secured all that he
requested had maintained a substantial balance in his
checking account. We know his ability and his financial
stability. We know our money with him will be safe.
The other man to whom we dared not extend credit
has an account, it's true, but the balance in his account
was always low and occasionally overdrawn a poor
credit risk. This is only one reason why it is valuable to
maintain a substantial balance in your checking account.
