There Is still some time.- Yon have no

shall appear before the tribunal of
God. I cannot consider It Just that you
should be believed more than myself,
since I told the truth from the first time
we came here, which appears not to have
been considered before the court. All
this I did not know In time, or else) I
would have told all myself at the time I
was naked whether I had anything to
say. I had the confidence that those
who had the law in hand, to whom I told
there things, would cause tame things to
operate In the proceedings, but t h is did
not happen - according as It appeared to
me afterward. When • man Zannot
confide In those who aro in authority
what can I do who am • priscmor. I
cannot speak English; do not ;know the
laws of this country, and have no friend
who could do anything in my favor.
Neither have I money wherewith to
make friends. I could do nothing more
for myself than what I did, vie:-to tell
the truth, which, as I said before, could
not condemn me to death; for in Ger
many the law is such that whosoever
does not take the life of any many cannot
be condemned to death. This also I
take for jostles. There Is, therefore,
no more left than the confidence which I
have in our Father which Is. In Heaven.
It will by this time have appeared who
the real murderer Is. However, the
word guilty has been pronounced upon
me, who will have to be executed. 1 re.
afire the answer now from every ono
that it Igloo late. (To nave nos unjustly

over no, who established the powers that

wield this authority may this Mapocudbli
ity rest. I will not, nor is it In my
power to prononnoe Judgment upon any
man. I commit all Into the hammed' the
Lord our God. He is the great Judge.
He says; "Vengeance Is mine; I will re
pay." In HIM I pl*ee nX7 trust; in Him
I five and die.
It is true only the few profess We
name; so it - falls to my lot, like unto Him:
every one cried °away with Ilim;" so it
le now; no mite takes mercy on me ex
cept One, our God. - It Is indeed a matter
of no small amount to nut to take leave
of Hie world in the best years of my lire,
and It may well be a matter of regret for
all inch as could have been of asalatance
to me. Many who think of me after my
death will see my spirit flit before their
eyes.
It is true that I did what I should not
have • done, in this, that I shared the
money because I knew nothing of the
murder.
_Yet this cannot condemn me
to death. Men may think of MO what
they please; Iknom that I took (he life of

I now return my sincere thanks to

TICE EXECITTION
At an early hour yestardny . morning
the streets of tho town wore thronged
with people, and the crowd continued to
Increase during the day. Sheriff Neety

THE scurrow,
The condemned ascended the scaffold
at half past twelve with firm steps and
took the positions assigned them on the
trap. After the preliminaries had been
arranged, prayer in German was offered
in behalf of the unfortunate men by. Rev.
.1. IL Sykes, of the Reformed Church.
After the prayer,
ono of the clergymen
asked Charley if be had anything to say.
He replied, "no." Von Bondenberg
then read the statement made Tuesday
and given above, and appealed to the
other to confirm it. truth. The paper
was read in German, but the tone was
earnest and foaling. Atter concluding,
Bohner said-uwe were both in the bonne
together, both helped to kill, and we
both are going to die together." Von
Bordenberg replied: "It is a shame.
You ought not to say that at the list
moment. It lainhumen." Rey. Steckel
then offered a prayer In German. The
last farewell was then said, and all des
cended from the platform except the
Sheriff. Von Bordonbergasld: "Cf Lord,
beyond the Skies, forgive my sins and
take my poor soul up into Thy Kingdom
Amen, Amen."
THE DEO,
Black cape were then placed over the
Leads and the noose adJcutted, about the
necks or the condemned, Bohner„after
the cap had been drawn over his head,
made some remarks In German, bull they
could not be heard. The signal wee then
given, and In a moment the bodies of Ltie
wretched men were suspended between
heaven and earth.

The drop fell at fifteen minutes of one
o'clock. In ten minutes Albert died. and
four minutes later the oonculaive twitch.

An Interesting Report—Progress of Our
Schools—Hew they are Managed—A
_Year's Review Same Interesting
Figures,
The first annual report of Superinten
dent Luckey, of the City Schools, has
been received. It lea very neatly arrang
ed and printed pamphlet of ninety-nix
pages, containing a full account of the
schools for the year ending June, 1803,
together with a mass of atatletical infer-
Mallon of an important character, and a
resume of the history- of the schools
from their organization here. Accurate
lithographs of the principal buildings,
embellish and add to the attractiveness
of the pamphlet.
Every topic of interest connected with
wheel management and prosperity and
progress la touched upon, and many new
and valuable suggestions thrown out,
some of which have recently been adop
ted with decided success: The Superin
tendent speaks with pleasure of the
Increased public interest taken In the
schools during the year. This is evinced
In the erection of new school houses, the
adoption of now plane looking to the
greater efficiency of the system, the pro
vision's for the erection of a High - school
building, and, more than all, the unusual
attendance of citizens as visitors. Of
the growth of the schools the report says:
"From a few rented rooms on unpleasant
al lays in 1835, our school accommodations
have grown to thirty-two buildings, meet
ly well located, having all the modern con
!affiances and capable of accommodating
over 15,000 pupils: Our new buildings
are erected on npaeloun grounds, properly
ornamented with trees and shrubbery.
The room. are large with high ceilings
end well illuminated. Bcquata of flow
ers in semen-adorn them, and many of
the school room walls are adorned with
beautiful and attractive pictures, making
the school room an attractive place of
resort. Especially during the past year
Progress has been made In this work of
beautifying the walls and grounds, and
the work le beingi numbed earnestly for
ward."
In the matter of school discipline a
great reforni has been made. In refer
ence to corporeal punishment this la
especially observable. Under the new
rule, requiring teachers to report all
each, this very objectionable practice
has been almost abolished, and the
teachers have been led to devise more
rational plaza for controlling, pupils.
This rule has had • most healthy effect
both on teacher and scholar.
Drawing and mimic have been intro.
duced as regular etudlea, and the reach
nem with which they are pursued by the
acholareevincee the practicability of such
a dimpling and cultivation of the le Shot-
Ical nature of the children. Groat 'pro
gress has been made in both these
branches, as well as In that of etallethen.
Ice, which, however, has not yet been so
generally adopted. -
The report further contains a complete
history of the Central Board of Educa
tion, Its organisation, membership, Ac.,
, and of the Central High School, and
all matters of 'lmportance in relation
thereto, together with a list of its pupils
and a record of its-graduates thus far.
Connected with the report is an appen
dix from which we glean a few interest
ing figures. During the year 204 Leech.

having on an average 43 pupils in charge.
There was an average daily attendance
of 7,121) scholars; 12,329 in all entered

ed with a large audience at the Opera
House last evening to witness his third
rendition of "The Streets of New York."
He assumed five separate and Instinct
characters in the "Badger," all requiring
a different style, and which his versa.
tility of talent enables him to present lei
the bent possible manner. In the char
acter of the "Match Vender" he Is ex
tremely funny. General Grant, Jr. is a
youthful prodigy of great promise,. and
In the role of "Bob" the boot black, re.
calves a lion's share of the applause.
The piece will be repeated tonight.
MASQUERADE AT THE Rrsx.—No pains
are being spared to make the fancy dress
carnival and masquerade at the
Rink this evening, the "biggest
thing on Ice." All who go are promised
to be fully repaid in healthy and pleas
ant amusement. To say the very least
there never wan such ice on any rink as
there is today at the Keystone. The
action of the atmosphere has tended to
give It a gloss and smoothness which bard
freezing Invariably roughens .as those
who are better acquainted with the na
ture of the ice can testify.' Boys take
your girls, mothers send your children,
and we promise you they will come
home with rosy cheeks and much the
better of such escarole's.
