EXECUTION C
Killed by 1,700 "V"
AUBURN, N. Y., Oct. 29-At
7.12.30 o'clock this morning Leon
Czolgosz, murderer of President Mc
Kinley, paid the extreme penalty ex
acted by the law for bia crime, He
was shocked to death by seventeen
hundred Volts of electricity. He
vent to the chair in exactly the same
manner in which have the majority
of murderers in this State, showing no
??rtioul?r sigs cf 'sar, but in fact
doing what few of them have done
talking to the witnesses while he was
being strapped in the ohair.
Czolgosz retired last night at 10
o'olook ?nd slept so soundly that when
Warden Mead went to the cell shortly
before 5 o'clock this morning the
guard inside had to shake Czolgosz to
awaken him. He sat upon tho edge
of bis cot and made no reply to the
warden's greeting of "Good morning."
The prison official took from his'
pocket the , death warrant and read it
.slowly and. distinctly to the assassin,
who hardly r?ised his eyes to him
during the perfunctory oeremony.
Juit as the warden stepped away
from the cell door Czolgosz called to
him and said:
"I would like to talk with the su
perintendent."
The warden responded: -
"He will be down presently."
Then the oondemned man rolled
over OP his cot apparently anxious to
sleep again.
At 5.15, however, the guard brought
to him a pair , of dark trousers with
the left leg slit, so as to allow the free
application of the electrode, and a
light gray outing shirt. He was told
to get up and put these on, which he
did.
Contrary to the usual custom he
was given a new pair of shoes. When
dressed he laid down 'on the cot again
and in this attitude the superinten
dent found him at 5.30, when he went
down to Visit him. The superinten
dent stood in front of the steel bars
and when the guard had called .Czol
gosz's attention he said:
"I want to make a statement before
you kill me."
"What do you wish to say, Czol
gosz?" asked the superintendent.
"I want to make it when there are a
lot of people prefect. I want them to
.hear me," said the prisoner.
"Well, you cannot," said the su
perintendent.
"Then I won't talk at all," said the
prisoner, sullenly.
After the superintendent left the
guards brought Czolgosz's breakfast,
consisting of coffee, toast, eggs and
bacon, and 'ho ate with quite a relish.
While he waa partaking of this the
witnesses were gathering in the office
of Warden Mead and at 7.06 o'olock
the procession passed to the death
chamber, going through tho long south
corridor. - .
In the chamber Electrician Davis
and former Warden Thayer, ot Dap
n cm or a, had arranged the ohair test,
placing a bank of 22 incandescent
lights across the arms and connecting
the electrode wires at either end. The
witnesses were ordered seated and
then the warden addressed them
briefly:
"You are hero to witness the legal
death of Leon Czolgosz. I desire that
you keep your scats and preserve ab
solute silence io the death- chamber,
no matter what may transpire'. There
are plenty of guards and prison offi
cials to preserve order and to attend,
to the proper details."
The prison physician. Dr. Gerin
and Dr. Carlos P. MacDonald, of New
York, took a position to the left of
the ohair, Warden Mead stood directly
in front and Electrician Davis retired
to the little room containing the elec
trical switchboard. -Thayer gavo the
signal and tho current was turned
through the electric lights, flooding
the chamber with, brilliant light and
dramatically showing the power that
was used to kill the prisoner.
Warden Mead gave thc signal to
have tho prisoner brought in and at
7.10.1-2 o'clock Chief Keeper Tupper
swung open the big steel door leading
to the condemned cells, and as the
steel bars behind which Czolgosz had
been kept wero swung aside two
guards marched the prisoner into the
corridor, two ..thorsfollowing, and tho
chiof keeper walking in front,
Tho guards on cither side of Czol
gosz had hold of his arms, aa if either
to support hi sj or tc? keep him from
making .a demonstration. As be
stepped over the threshold he stum
bled, but they held him . up, and as
they urged him forward toward the
ohair he stumbled again on the little
rubber-covered platform lipon which
the chair rests. I^is hoad vasereot

perceptibly. As he was being seated
he looked about at the assembled wit
nesses with quito a steady stare and
said:
"I killed the President because he
was an enemy of the good people- of
the working people/'
His voice trembled slightly at first,
but gained strength with caoh word,
and as he spoke it was norfeot Ene
ii sh.
"I am not sorry for my crime," ho
said loudly, just as the guard pushed
his head baok on the rubber head-rest
and drew the strap across Iiis fore
head tuju chin. As the pressure on
the straps tightened and bound the
jaw slightly he mumbled:
"I am awfully sorry I could not seo
my father."
It was just exactly eleven minutes
past 7 'o'clock when ho crossed the
threshold, but a minute had elapsed
and he had just finished'his last state
ment when the strapping was com
pleted and the guards stepped baok.
Warden Mead raised his hand and at
7.12.30 Electrician Davis turned the
switch that threw 1,700 volts of elec
tricity into the living body.
The rush of the current threw the
body so hard against the straps that
they creaked perceptibly. The hands
clinched Suddenly and the whole atti
tude was one of extreme tenseness.
For forty-five seconds the full current
was kept on, and then slowly the elec
trician threw: the switch baok, reduc
ing the current volt by volt until it
was cut off entirely. Then, just as it
had reached that point, he threw the
lever baok again for two or three seo
onds. The body, whioh had collap
sed as tho current was reduced, stif
fened up again against the straps.
When it was turned off again Dr. Mc
Donald stepped up to the ohair.and
put his hand over the heart. He said
he felt no pulsation, but suggested
that the current be turned on for a
few seconds again. Once more the
body became rigid.
From the time Czolgosz had left his
poll until the full penalty was paid
less than four minutes had elapsed.
The physicians present used the steth
oscope and other tests to determine if
any life remained, and at 7.17 the
warden, raising his hand, announced:
"Gentlemen, the prisoner is dead."
The witnesses filed from the cham
ber, many of them visibly affected,
and the body was taken from the ohair
and laid on the operating table.
The body was placed in a black
stained pine coffin, every portion of
the anatomy being replaced under the
supervision of Dr. Gerin and Warden
Mead. Shortly afterward it was taken
to the prison cemetery and au extra
ordinary precaution taken to com
pletely destroy it. A few days ago
under thc warden's order an experi
ment was made to determine the
power of quicklime in thc destruction
of flesh and bone, whioh was not sat
isfactory. Warden Mead at once eon
i'erred with some of the physicians
present and determined, in conjunc
tion with Superintendent Collins, that
the purpose of the law was the destruc
tion of the body, that.it was not ne
cessary to usc quicklime for that end. !
Accordingly a carboy of acid was
obtained and poured upon the body in
tho collin after it had been lowered
into the grave. Straw was used in
tho four corners bf the grave as the
earth was put in to give vent to such
gases as might form.
It is the belief of the physicians
that the body will be entirely disin
tegrated within twelve hours. Dur
ing that time and as long as deemed
necessary a guard will be kept over
the unmarked grave.
A lengthy report prepared this
afternoon by the autopsy surgeons re
lated entirely to the brain and was of
a highly technical character. After
scientifically describing to the min
utest detail the brain of the dead mur
derer the report conoludos as follows:
-, "No anomalies found. The brain
in general is well developed, sufficient
ly masked with fissures and tho lobes
are in a normal proportion."
. Tho surgeons have not yet..drawn ?
report on what tho autopsy disclosed
as to the other organs.
The Rev. Herrick, chaplain of tho
prison, was in the death chamber
ready for any call that might bo made
for bis services. He was not wanted
by the prisoner, however,' and sat
.quietly in the rear 'of tho chamber
throughout thc oxecutiou.
Tho clothing and personal effects of
the prisoner was burned. under direc
tion of Wardou Mead shortly af ter tho
^execution.
Prison Superintendent Collins made
the following statomont to tho Asso
ciated Preiss:
"Tho execution was ono of tho most
successful over conducted in tho
State. Kxiraordinary caro had to bc
taken in thc ease, because both.tho
Warden and 1 received hundreds of
threatening letters, many of them as
serting in violent and intemperate
langnage that the prisoner would
never be put in the chair. I have de
cided for the present that we will not
destroy any of the hundreds of letters
written to Czolgosz, the warden and
myself as to the case. Eventually
they will be destroyed, but it has
struck me that perhaps we should
make a list of them, especially of
those letters signed wita full and
proper names, in which condolence
was offered to the prisoner or threats
agaiust us were made. My plan is to
get the addresses of these people and
keep the list for police reference. I
believe that there may come a time
when such a li Rt would be valuable in
running down Anarchists."

NIAGARA . FALLS, N. Y., October
24.-Mrs. Minnie Edson Taylor, 50
years old went over Niagara Falls on
the Canadian side thia Afternoon and
survived a. feat never before accom
plished, and indeed never attempted,
except in the commission of suicide.
She made the trip in a barrel. Not
only did she survive, but she escaped
without a broken bone, her only ap
parent injuries being a s?alp wound
one and a half inches long, a slight
concussion of the brain, some shock
to her nervous system and bruises
about the body. She was conscious
when taken out of the barrel. The
doctors in attendance upon her to
night said that, though she was some
what hysterical, her oondition is not
at all serious and that she probably
will be out of bed within a few days.
Mrs. Taylor's trip covered a mile
ride through the Canadian rapids be
fore she reached the brink of the
precipice. Her barrel was twirled
? and - toppled and buffeted through
( these waters, but escaped serious con
? tact with rooks. As it passed through
the smoother, swifter waters that
rushed over into the abyss it rode in
an almost perpendicular position with
its upper half out of tho water. Over
tho brink it rode at an angle of about
45 degrees on the outer surface of the
deluge and descended to thc white
foaming waters, 158 feet below.
True io her calculations the anvil
fastened to the bottom of the barrel
kept it foot downward and so it land
ed. The ride through the rapids oc
cupied eighteen minutes. The barrel
could not be seen as it struck the
water below, because of the spray,
but in less than half a minute after it
passed over tho brink it was seen on
the surface of the scum-covered water
below the falls. It was carried swift
ly down to the Maid of the Mist Land
ing, caught in an eddy, and held there
until it floated so dose to the shore
that it was reached by means of a pole
and hook, and drawn in upon thc
rocks. Ten minutes later the wo
man was lifted from the barrel and
half an hour later, sho lay on a cot at
her boarding place OB 1st street, in
Niagara Falls, on the American side.
She thanked God she was alive, thank
ed all who had helped her in any way,
said she would never do it again, but
she was not sorry she had doue it "if
it would help her financially!"
She said she had prayed all during
the trip, except during "a few mo
ments of unconsciousness just after
her descent."
The barrel in which Mrs. Tayioi
made the journey is four and a hali
feet high, and about three feet in
diameter. A leather harness and
cushions iusido protected her body.
Air was secured through a rubbei
tube connected with a small opening
near the top of tho" barrel.

recently came here from Bay CUy,

A Dam of Pure Soda. t
-- I
Probably few people ever heard of a s
soda dam, but such a freak of nature d
really exists in an"unfrequented part t
of the great West, says the Washing- x
ton Star. A. O. Wright, of the In- i
dian tserviee, who travels extensively s
through the section of tho country
west of tho Missouri River, in speak- t
ing of strange things he has encoun- t
tered in his tours, alluded, to thc soda 1
dam. Asked what he meant by a i
soda dam he said: <
"In Box canon, just above the hot '
springs of the Jnmez River, Arizona, , <
is a dam extending from one wall of 1
the gorge to the other. This dam is |
nothing more nor less than a massive '
dam of pure soda, rising to a height
of 100 feet, and probably 600 feet
from end tn #?nd. Nature's forces,
of course, started their work of con
struction away back in tho dim and
distant past, when deposits of soda
contained in the water thrown off by
the springs were made at thc base of
what has since developed into one of
the natural wonders of the West.
Those deposits must have been made
with remarkable rapidity.
"Just ten years ago the Jamez i
River rose to an unprecedented
height, and under tho abnormal pres
sure of the torrent a lower section
bf thc dam gave way, leaving a breach
in thc wall of soda about twenty feet
high. When the water subsided the
lake formed by the dam was, Of course,
destroyed, leaving the upper eighty
feet of the dam high and dry.
"I passed through that section of
Arizona last summer and purposely
visitd tho soda dam. I was most as
ooished to soo that the twenty-foot
ranch had boon nearly filled in. Tho
oda from tho springs had made fresh
eposits and gradually patched up the
ole made in 1890. At the prosent
ato tho breach will be entirely closed
a another year and the lake will as
ume its former proportions.
"Previous tb the break in tho dam
he lake above was fully 600 feot wide j
nd extended up the oanon for at least
hree-quarters of a mile. Scientists
rho have examined thc dam are of
he opinion that it will nover attain a
leight much above 100 feet, for thc
eposits ic the water seem to sink in
hat great depth before the brink is
cached. As they fall, however, they
rill tend to strengthen the base of
he dam and will gradually decrease
he depth of the lake at its lower end."

The following story is being told in !
