KhiTormePTHi: 1xtki.liei:nci:k: lean lean
net agree with you In your advocacy of the
golden-red as our national flower. It was
the golden-calf of Aaren that get the cho
sen ieople Inte trouble, and 1 hepe thore Is
no golden-red lu pickle for Americans. In
the first place, It Is net a flower of the Old,
true blue color, that color of the skies and
sea which Is the best hue for a symbol of
freedom.
11 Is the sickly yellow of royal geld, n
metal that has Uttle part In the actual pro
gress of this age of steel, serving only as a
medium of exchange. The flower Itself
may be graceful and stately enough, but
we want something mere than grace and
btutellness In our national flower. A whole
stalk Is needed te produce pioper effect,
and ene can net wear a stalk of goldon-red
in the button hole If disposed te be aesthe
tically patriotic. The golden-red has no
fmgrance and no 'associations in our
hlhteiy.
New 1 am willing te ace-opt uny sugges
tion that vv ill offer a national Hew or that Is
beautiful, blne and fragianl, and or pioper
slze and style, but believe It will be hard
te Hud a better emblem than the blue bell.
It may be said that Scotland hffi already
taken II, but the Scots have the thlstle,aud,
moieovcr they are uetanutlrn and never
woie a very blg'enc, as we aie and w ill be.
With all due lespect Ter brave little Scot
laud she has taken mero than her share or
rame and will have te step aside and give
the real nations a chance.
The dainty, fragrant, brave little blne
bell Is the very perfection or sticngth and
beauty. Its little stalk has in due pie pio pio
portien all the statellncss of the golden-red,
nnd It Is net tee tephcavy under Us weight
of bells, but has u sturdy air. Our famous
liberty bell will ever ling through
history the joyful tones with which it
proclaimed liberty thiougheut the laud,
and what mere fitting national emblem
can thore be than this modest
but brave little llovver, with its blue bells
ever sw inglng as though proclaiming
Ilberty In man' teuesaud various tongues,
but all lu perfect chime. Yeu say that we
gather, In our civilization, the hurvcts
sewn by ether nations and should have the
goldcu-ied as the harvest emblem of full
fruition; but we may be veiy farludeed
fiem climax eff civilization tow arils whkh
we seem te be taking a fiesh start. We
are net merely reaping the fruits sewn by
ether nations, but are sewing new
and Btrange seed ourselves. We have
no light te assume that we are gather
ing the harvest when the millennium is
se far nwuy that we have te struggle
hard against poverty and wickedness.
We don't want the " top-lelly " regal
golden-red, flaunting Its geld lu the fuee or
the teller with Its hollow- claim that the
top of civilisatien lias been leached und
that tlicre are only harvestw te be gathered.
We de want the little blue bell symbol
of a brave bliliggle In uature for the up
raising of the beautiful true blue.

TH15 SLIVERS' OF WOMEN FORCED TO HIVE

Twe feu Holds Usest In tlie Tombs III New
Yerk Oue of the Murderers Curses u
Moment Before Ills Execution.
NKW'Yenu, Aug.lt. The Tour munlarcrs
or women Patrick Packenhatn, Jack
lxw Is (colored), James Nelan and Ferdi
nand Carelln were hanged In the yard or
the Tombs prison this morning.
Tlicre wcre two scaffolds and two men
wcre hanged en each. Packenham and
Nelan were the llrst executed en the scaffold
w hick had been erected en the Franklin
street side of tlie prison. Tlie drop fell at
ti:5e o'clock. Eight minutes later Lewis
and Carelln were bunged from the scaffold
en the Leenard street side.'
Sheriff Flack and Undcr-SherllT Sexten,
entered the prison at 0:33 o'clock. They
were followed by twenty deputy sheriffs,
till In bluck clothes and wearing silk hats.
Ten of thorn went le the Leenard street
and the ethers took their places at the
Franklin street wall. At. 0:10 o'clock the
llrstjury et twclve men, all newspapcr
representatives, woie given the signal le
outer the prison yard, and two minutes
later the second set of Jurers llled
out uud marched te their places. Sim
ultaneous wllh the marching out of
the second Jury I'aeltenhnni and Nelan
worn taken Inte a cell lu the new prison.
At 0:15 Carelln and Lewis were removed
te the boys Jail en the Leenard sheet side.
The last rlte of the church wero then ad
ministered, tlie ceremonies en-cupylng
eight minutes. At 0:15 Packenham and
Nelan emerged from jail. Father Prouder
gist suppeitcd Packenham and Father
GcllnuK walked ulongside of Nelan. The
precession brought up with Father Vun
itcnsellncr. The arms of the condemned
men wcre pinioned. Packcuhiitn's face
was of a ghastly pallor, but his step was
firm and he looked unflinchingly into the
faces around him. Nelan hardly appeared
te realize his position. Thore was a half
defiant took en his countenance and he
cast his eyes up at the cress-boam, from
w hlch two rejies dangled, with something
akin te curiosity. Upen reaching Ihe
scaffold Nelan took his place under
the repe hanging ueaicsl tlw Frank
lin sticet wall. Fackenhaui was four
feet away from his companion, both
men tinned and grusixsl the pilests
by the hands, wringing them fervently.
In a tw inkling (he caps were adjusted, uud
Hangman Atkinson nipped tlnce times in
lapid succession en the side of uliex vvheie
an assistant steed with a hatchet. Tlie
third rap had hardly been given when the
bodies of the murdetcrn weiO crkcd into
the sir. At the ex pi rat ion of four minutes
theie was u mighty threo almost togethcr
in the bodies of the suspended murderers.
At 7:10 o'clock both inen wcre pronounced
dead, but were permitted te hang for lif
ted) minutes longer.
CAIIOLI.N'H bUIlMttSlNll CONDUCT.
While this scene was being enacted
ptopurutieus wcru being made for what
proved te be the most shocking spectacle
that has ever taken plaee within the. walls
of the Tombs prison. The hanging of
Carelln and Lewis Is probably unparal
lcllcd In Boveral aspetls. The two inur inur
derers at six forty-flve o'clock re
ceived the last spiritual consolation.
At two minutes after 7 o'clock Carelln and
Lewls, with priests, catue tliieugh the
deer. Lewis walked unsteadily the first
dozen paces, but quickly recovered him
bcir. Carelln had the butter a cigar be
tween his lips, and was pulling vigorously,
blowing great clouds or smoke into the
faces of attending priests. His face
was us palu us the face of the dead, and the
scowl upon It almost demoniacal He
glared ut the prlcslH as he turned
around and felt the repe touch his shout
tier. Spitting the cigar stump from his
mouth he broke out in a blasphemy that
hurrlllcd the spectators. Atkinson had
Just pinioned his legs when he spoke. Look Leek
ing sullenly at tlie priests he suddenly ex
claimed, "I die an Innocent man; G d
it, I didn't de this thing." Lewis, w he had
then been pinioned, half tinned his head
unit addiOsalug Ills companion, said;
"What's the matter with you, anyway;
vv by don't you die llke u man 7" "I will
die llke a mini," shrieked Carelln, his facr
turning perfectly livid ; " 1 will die like a
muu an Innocent man." The words were
scarcely out iff his mouth before Atkinson
"clapiicd the black cap ever his face. The
assistant hangman covered lxivls' fine
ul the same moment. Atkinson gave
the signal and the weight fell.
Instead of bounding up, as Packenham
and Nelan had done, the miserable
wretches went into air with se little feice
that theie was scancly any rebound ut all.
Lewis began te struggle In the most sick
ening manner. He threw his legs about
se vlolently as te kick of!" Ills slippers.
Then he began te gurgle and choke. The
rasping, whee.y sound came from under
that horrlble black cap for fully ten sec
ends. His body turned and swayed and
the coutei liens wcre se painful thut hull' a
dozen men turned away their heads. The
peer cio.UurevvuB slowly btratigkd. Caro Care
liu's body was violently contorted also,
but he utteied no sound. The w eight fell ut
7;0J o'clock and al7:l(Jbeth men weiedead.
The four bodies hung for half an hour and
were then cut down and placed in plain
cefilns. All four wcre strangled,
-ilium uvsi smnr.
A Her the men had supper last night they
sat In the plisen yard smoking and chat
ting. They v.'cie then shut up lu their
cage and by midnight all wcre asleep,
bie.ithlng heavily. Father Satiuas slept in
the cage with tlieiu. Shortly after four
o'clock I'ae-kenhaiu get up and begun te
dress very carefully. He washed himself
thoroughly ut the basin and hud just fin
ished w lien the deputies begun te awukcu
the rest. It took but a touch te bring Caro Care
lln te his senses. All night long he hud
lolled and tossed en the nairew Iren cel.
At times he would set belt upright und
fan himself vigorously with a newspaper.
It lequiied seething words from the
deputies te coiii)kse hlin. Neither Catellu
nor Packenham sixjke for a long time.
Lewis was the llrst te break silence. "It
will seen be ever new," he said. This re
mark caused Nelan's lip te quiver, and the;
youngest of the murderers begun te show
signs of weakening. At 4:30 o'clock the
men were busy in arranging their last
toilet. Nelan paid particular attention te
the arrangement of his uecktie, while
lvvls, the negre, spent most of
his tiiue In blacking his lxets.. At 5
e'cIiK-ktlie inaieli te the ihapcl ceiiimeui ed,
Father Prendergast leading. Fer thico thice
quartcrs of an hour the group remained in
the ihapcl. After mass hail been stud the
men were returned te their cage, where
breakfast was serves!. It was a bountiful
meid and all of the men partook heartily.
Sheiilf Flack arrived ut about i:30 o'clock
and Immediately thereafter the black cups
were put en the men and they wcre led te
the scaffold.

The Western and Northwesteru uillwiiy
managers are much cencerned ever llie
notification given them by Chairman
Coeloy, or the Intor-state commerce
commission. In an Interview In
regard te this notification, Judge Ceeley
said: "In my opinion the lecent as
sumption of authority by the mads,
soverally, te inake through rates by
mciely publishing a notice of what
they should accept as their divisions
Is something net warranted by law. In
legal ell eet It only makes u local rate te
which ether local rales must coufeim. I
have given the reads te understand that In
my opinion when clictiinstances Justify the
making of rates which Ignore .the long
and short haul clause of the statute
the rates actually made must be reason
able, when computed one with the ether.
The gicat dlspuilty that Is new mude
between long-haul lates uud shett-haul
rates en the lines between Chicago and St.
Paul would of Itself make the latter illegal
and indefensible. If maintained It will
compel the commission te muke an order
reducing mom le me proper pioperuon. i
have called the attention of the managers
te the fact thai when they exacted execs execs
stve short-haul rates they rendered them
selves liable lu overy Instance te an action
en behalf of any person who hud been com
pelled te pay the same."
