There is more than the usual amount of fiction
read in idle hours by Chester Bailey Fernald and
Katherine Fullerton Gerould.
Those who know Charles B. Towns, and the
work he has done for the cure of drugand alcohol
addictions, will want to read his article in the
June Century on “Hope for the Hard Drinker,” a
sane, authoritative
statement of what can and must be done to save
the man worth while.
The dominating interest of the presidential
campaign gives special timeliness to two narra-
tives in the June Century of other presidential
campaigns which have been important factors in
our history; the story of ‘Cleveland's First Nomi-
nation and Election.”

Richeson Pays Death Penalty.
Clarence V. T. Richeson, the sell:
confessed murderer of Miss Avis Lin-
nell, and a former Baptist ciergyman,
was put to death by electricity in the
state prison in Boston early Tuesday
morning.
At 12.10.02 o'clock the electrician
threw a lever that sent a powerlui
current of electricity through the
condemned man's body as he s-!
strapped in the chair. The first shock
| caused instant death, and after an e -
amination by the physician in attend
ance Richeson was pronounced legaliy
dead at 12.17 a. m.
Richeson went to his death with
composure, as he said he would. He
stepped from his cell into the corrid>:
and through a door into the deal
chamber. When he had taken thirteen
paces he was in front of the electr.:
chair. He took his seat in it, the
straps and electrodes were quickly
put in place.
The four guards who had accom
panied him from his cell, and Chapla n
Stebbins, who preceded, him into the
room, stepped back. Warden Bridges
raised his cane as a signal, and in the
next second Richeson’s spirit had lef
his body.
Richeson passed the last twenty
four hours of his stay on earth in
much the same way that he spent the
two previous days. He slept very lit
tle, scarcely tasted food, read the
Bible and other religious books, talked
and prayed with Rev. Herbert 8. John
son and Rev. W. H. Stebbins, th:
prison chaplain, and expressed his
last final wishes to William A. Mor:e.
of his counsel. Because he abstained
from food so long Richeson was in a
{ much weakened condition, but he re
tained complete control of hisself.
Fioyd Allen Guilty of Murder.
Floyd Allen, first of the Hillsville
mountaineers tried for the Carroll
county court house murders, was ad
judged guilty of murder in the firs
degree at Wytheville, Va. He will jay
the penalty of his crime in the electric
chair at Richmond.
Sentence was not pronounced Gi
Allen, as he may be called to testii:
in the other cases.
Allen was very cheerful in the ex:
pectation that a mistrial would re
sult. When the verdict was announc-
ed he relapsed into dispair. There
was barely a handful of people in the
court room. Whether this was because
of fear that the Allens might attempt
to repeat the scene enacted at Hills
ville is not known, but there was no
reason for such fear.

Gives $4,000,000 to Cripples.
The memories of a crippled child
of a devoted wife and of a brave son,
who gallantly stepped aside on the
wrecked Titanic that women and chil
dren might be saved, were revived
when P. A. B. Widener, of Phila:
delphia, execeuted a deed of trust to
the Land Title and Trust company ani
delivered to it $4,000,000 in 4 per cent
securities as an endowment for the
Widener Memorial Home for Crippled
Children.
The sum given makes a total of $7,
000,000 actually paid and set aside for
the home by Mr. Widener. It is pro
posed to utilize and invest the $4,000,
000 in such a manner that it will
eventually become an endowment fun:
of $5,000,000.
Killed Fighting Mine Fire.
The body of John Lipokowicz, who
was killed, and three other men, in
jured by a heavy fall of rock at the
Hillside colliery at Avoca, near
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., was dug out of the
debris.
The men were constructing a rock
cut to head off a fire. This is the firs!
fatal accident in the region since tic
suspension of mining.
Deadly “Movie” Realism.
Roy Wilt and James Salyard, ten
