The First Execution Tnder the New
Minnesota Press G&g Law.
Little Falls, Minn, July 19. Al
bert Burlow -was hanged at 1:52
o'clock this morning for the mur
der of Franklin Eich. This is the
first execution to take place under
the new law, pro Tiding that crimi
nals shall be executed in the great
est privacy, and that no newspaper
men shall be present.
The crime for which Burlow suf
fered was a meet cold-blooded mur
der, committed November 23 last
near the Tillage of Boyalton. The
victim was Franklin Eich, a well-to-do
batchelor farmer, living at Buck
lin, about ten miles south of here.
Eich owned a fine team and it was
to gain possession of the team that
Burlow murdered him.
Though the state attorney of
Minnesota has declared the new cap
ital punishment law constitutional,
which excludes newspaper men and
forbids newspapers from publishing
anything beyond a simple announc
ment of the hour at which the hang
ing occurred, all the larger newspa
pers of the state published full
accounts of the execution, and will
make a test case of it.

after leading in prayer he advanced
to the front of the pulpit and said
in a distinct voice: "It's d d hot!"
The people were more startled than
before and began to wonder what
was the matter with their great lead

merely quoting the language of a

and broke the news as best he could
to Miss Rettie. Cole, Jim and Bob

my own personal feeling and preju

Canton, Mo., July 17. A great
event in meteorology will take place
between September 12 to 15, 1889,
and is destined to be the trreatest
6torm period that has occurred in
the past 100 years, or during the
present century. This storm will
be universal, covering every meteor

The main part of the storm will
in ail prooaDiiity take its course
along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts,
producing terrific hurricanes, tidal
waves and possibly earthquakes.
The interior portion of the United
States will be severely affected also
by eddies or "spurs" from the main
storm, which will spread over the
county iu high gales and terrific
storms during the passage of the
main storm. Prof.

A correspondent from Sioux Falls
where the convention to forma Con
stitution for the new states is now
in session, has this information:
"One of the two Missourians in
the Convention is William T. Wil
liams, a native of Callaway County.
He was educated at the Warrens
burg Normal, worked on a farm,
taught school, studied law, was a
staunch Republican, and the kind of
a young man Missouri can ill afford
to lose. Seven years ago he came
to Dakota, and is bow mayor of the
city of Tyndall, as well as a mem
ber of this convention, after having
filled the office of Probate Judge
of his county for four years. His
wife is a lady who when a girl was
a member of the first school organiz
ed in the territory of Dakota."
Williams finished the elementary
course at the Normal in 1875. He
was connected with the school as
pupil and assistant teacher until
1879. Hu home was in Johnstown

his father informing us that he
will be unable to get out the Star

trouble. Mife'ortunes never come
