semi-annually $1,000,000 each per annum.

Hew Winners and Hia Father and Meter
fteoeived the Verdict that Dooma Elai
to Die.
The closing scene of the trial of
William Wieners in St. Louis for the
killing of Amcricus Vespucius Lawrence
is thus described in the Ulobe-Democrat:
For an hour the assemblage in the
court room waited anxiously for some
intimation from the jury room. Three
minutes longer waiting, and then at
thirty-eight minutes past three o'clock a
tapping on the the jury room door
brought Marshal Hohon to his feet and
caused a deathlike silence to reign in the
room. Tlie Marshal opened the door,
looked in and closed it again immedi
acy. A sigh of relief passed around,
and the words fal*e alarm fell from
the lips of several. It was not a false
alarm, however, and as Judge Jones re
sumed his seat upon the bench the jury
room door was again opened and the
twelve men filed slowly and solemnly
into court. Not a word broke the omin
ous silence which pervaded the* piace,
and yet before the jurors had got to their
seats there was not a person in the room
who had not read the terrible verdict
from the fates of the jurors. The pris
oner maintained his composure wonder
fully, the nervously rapid working of his
fingers alone evidencing the excitement
under which he was laboring. His sister
turned pale, grasped the back of her
brother's chair and cast a piteous glance
along the line of jurors, whose foreman
handed a slip of paper to Mr. Clabby,
C'ierk of the Court, who read out in a
clear, ringing voice, the verdict—" We,
the jury, find the defendant guilty of
murder in the first degree."
A sensational scene such as is seldom
witnessed in court ensued. The pris
oner's face blanched. His sister sat still
for a moment, gazing into vacancy and
clutching the chair in front of tier.
Then she flung her arms around the con
victed felon's neck and broke into
hysterical sol*, which he tried in vain
to check. Over and over again she kiss
ed him on the face and neck and hands,
only stopping now and then to crv to
him_ in a tone of most nitesus endear
ment, "Oh, Billy!" "My own brother
Hilly! "My only brother!" Then she
would stop for a moment, and look wild
ly round, and say defiantly, They shall
not do anything to you!" At last the
stolidity of the prisoner melted away,
and, with tears streaming from his eyes,
lie leaned back over his cnair, and broth
er and sister were enfolded in one an
other's arms. The»* was hardly a drv
eye in the court room, aud the judge's
voice trembled as he ordered the mar
shal to remove the prisoner into the jury
room. Here he was followed by his
father, whose meeting with his convicted
son was a scene of terrible patbos. Ut
terly crushed by the woe that waa upon
them, father and son rushed into on
another's arms, and broke into hysterical
sobbing, which was heard in distant parts
of the building. It was a terrible sight
to see the old man, in his hysterical
emotion, clasp his mighty son to his
breast and kiss him, with such fondness
as a parent bestows upon a little child
he loves, and even more terrible when,
overcome by excess of feeling, the ago
nised parent suddenly relaxed his grasp
round the prisoner's neck, and fell baca
senseless upon the floor. Restoratives
were applied, and in a few moments he
recovered consciousness. 8o (tainful a
scene had never before been witnessed in
the court, and it was only an act of
mcrcy to remove Wieners to the jail,
whither he was followed by his sorrowing
relatives. The crowds "in the court
rooms collected togetderand waited anx
iously at the foof of the Four Courts
staircase tocatch a glimpse of the prison
er a s he parsed by. They were disap
pointed, however, as Wieners was re
moved to the jail by the back way,
where, after undergoing a specially close
search by the guards, he was consigned
TO UA cell.
