A HORRIBLE SCENE. Execution of the Condemaed BaM. Khobben at Onik, Mo. A terrible Scene Oceasioeaa by th Baarllar Maaaer ia Which the Tarriala Daty wm Fwrfaisasa by taa OMeera. - Otars, Mo., May 10. It is all over. The majesty of the law has been sustained. Dave Walker, his son William Walker and John Matthews, the three Bald Knob bers,were hanged to- day for the killing of William Edens and Charley Green on the night of March 11, lsg7. The prisoners were ap at an early hoar this moraingand ate their breakfast at the asnal hoar. The jail-yard was fall of guards armed with Winchesters, shot guns and revolrers, and were in charge of Captaiu G. W. Taylor, who was fore man of the grand jury which indicted the Bald Knobbers. and known here as the "special Bald Knob grand jury." Quite a number of people trom the country came in, but the number of strangers was not very large, as few people were per mitted to witness the execution. Mat thews' wife and mother came in last evening, and it "xas learned this morning that several other of his relatives were here. Walker. Divine services were opened in the jail at 7:C0 a. m conducted by Revs. Thos. Hanks. D. E. Graystone and T. B. Horn, assisted by a few Christian ladies. The service was continued up to the hour of execution. John Matthews took part in the exercises and delivered an earnest prayer in loud voice. Wm. Walker also led in prayer ence. but persons on the outside could hear very little that was said by him. At 5:53 a. m. the sheriff entered the jail and read the death warrant to the doomed Bald Knoobers. after which Thomas De laney, one of their attorneys, was ad mitted to have an interview and bid them farewelL At 9:10 a. m. the prisoners commenced dressing themselves for the scaffold and finished their toilettes at 9:20. They were dresied with white shirts, imen colors, black cravats, low slippers and black soat, vest and pants, an imitation of broadcloth. The jury and reporters were admitted to the inside at 9:20. Just before leaving his cell John Matthews proclaimed his innocence in a loud voice. The sheriff helped Matthews ip the steps. Young Walker followed with a firm step, his fa ther following close behind as firm as sver. At the trap a short prayer was delivered by Rev. T. B. Horn, after which all joined in singinc- T. B. Horn rendered a selection from the book of Job. Rev. Thomas Hanks delivered a beauti fal prayer. The noose was ad justed at 9:40. John Matthews said he had nothing to add; he was there, but took no part in the crime. Matthews called on all who were willing to help his little ones t hold up their hands. Near ly everyone in his sight held up their hands. The black caps were adjusted at 3:51. At 9:.3 the drop felL John Mat- thews fell praying. The stretch of the rope let all fall to the ground. The rope broke and William Walker fell loose and lay there struggling and groaning. He talked for three minutes, when he was taken up by the sheriff and dep uties on the scaffold. Dave Walker was drawn up and died in about fifteen min utes. Matthews lived about thirteen min utes and died with his feet on the eround. The scene was horrible in the extreme. Matthews and Dave Walker were cut down at 10:10. The trap was again adjusted, and Wm. Walker lifted helpless and groaning and gurgling and almost insensible, and the rope again adjusted and the trap again sprung. This time the descent came to a sudden stop with his feet full thirty inches from the ground, and he died without a strug- In about fourteen minutes, whenhe was cut down. The bodies were laid on a white sheet spread on the ground and covered with another. William Walker. The jury- composed of tne following men, J. C. Rogers, T. L. Robertson. Dr. J. H. Fullbrigut, Dr. C. B. Elkins, Dr. W. H. Dewitt. T. J. Hanks, Thos. Baviiff. J. G. Kenston. J. A. Graham, E. W. Pearce, Thos. Voland and M. Hipes. went to the circuit clerk's office to finish up their work. The people have been very quiet all day. They discuss the revolting scene at the scaffold and are somewhat bitter in their denunciation of the bungling work. Many of the people in this county think the hanging was a very unjust punish ment, but recognize the fact that it was the duty of every cood citizen to submit to the enforcement of the law. GOVZRSOR FRAJICIS' LOTTO. Below we give Governor Francis letter to T. J. Delany, counsel for the Bald Knobbers, reciting his reasons for de clining to extend executive clemency. EXECCTtVX DEPATEST. 1 State or Missouri. V Jeffxrsos CUT. Mo.. Mav S. 1S89L ) To T. J. Dluti, Emi-, Springfield, Mo.: Deak Sm Within three weeks after my in auguration as Governor I was visited byyour 4? and Colonel Boyd as attorney for John JTStthews and W 11am Walker, then under sentence of death for executa m on the 14th of February. Your petition for eommutat:oa of entence-foryourc i-nt was not granted, bat inasmuch as the cae of Dav.d WalSer. another parucipaat ia the crisae for which they were Ihirid eotXYieted. had not at that time been passes up on by the Sapreae Court I granted a reprieve to the former two until April 29. Previaas te that the Ssptesse Coart had aJBrmed the Ind ln? of the lower court in David Walker's case, aad had fixed May 10 as the date of his execu tion, about April 13 you made another appeal for commutation ot the sentence imposed on William Walker and Joan Matthews, and when that was denied asked for a respite until May Id. the day fixed by the Supreme Court for the execution of David Walker. This was granted. For the past four days I have devoted most ot my time and attention to a consideration of tee anroments which you have presented la be half ot the condemned men. and to aa invest! ration of the testimony riven at the trial ol their cases and now on file in the office of the clerk ot the Supreme Court. I have read care tally the petltioa ot the trial Judge and prose eating attorney for commutation of sentesce, as well as your many written appeals for mercy Lvnade by letter and petition from different seo ftions of the State. 1 do not understand you to claim the innocence of your clients. The trial, judre and the prosecuting attorney admit ia their communication that the condemned men had fair trials, that they are anquestiocably guilty, aad that "their conviction was simply the conclusion of the law from the evidence." These beinx admitted facts, it is obvioasly necessary that strong reasons should be pre sented to justify executive interference. That you have ably and ingeniously presented every reasonable argument for your clients X cheerfully testify. The ignorance and poverty of the culprits, the wildness of the country in which they lived, taeir former good character, the fact that the Bald Knobber organization to which they belonged, was not formed for the purpose of pillage, but through a mistaken desire on the part of its founders to correct evils and enforce the law themselves all these mit'gatisg facts you have careftilly set forth is a forcible manner. The new testimony which vou have preented in the shape of affidavits from respected citizens and official, attacking the credibility of a promi nent witness in the case of David "Walker, has been duly considered and carefully weighed. The testimony given at the trwts. as shown in the record of the case, presents few, if any. palliating e'reamstances It shows tiiata meet ing ot a score or more of armed and hideously masked men was held on the nisht of the 11th of March. 1&57, and that for two hours they con sulted together: that the members of the meet ing departed from the plao of the assemblage in a direction difreat from the oce in which lay the home- of the leaders aad many of the men: that although prf concerted act on was not proven upon their arrival at the home of one William Edens. almost with one ac cord the party approached the house and did not turn away until it was ascertained that the dwelling was uno-'cup ed, that thence their footsteps were directed tcward the hocse of James Edens. father of viid William Eden?, which was situated one-fourth of a mile dis tant, and which was on the opposite side of the ra lroad and of the main road: tnat when they arrived there they tired into the only window of the tenement, and breaking down the doors ruhed in. discharging their firearms iad-senm-isately: taat the efforts of tne inmates to pro tect themselves from this isvas.oa were futilo against the over-powering number and arms of their assailants: th.il this family, not charged with bsiag other than harmless, honest and law-abiding, and who? only offence had ben occasional expression of disapproval ot the methods of the Bald Knobber organization, and whxh consisted or a father, mother, son and daughter-in-law, daughter and son-in-law. and two grandchildren, was aroused from its slum bers at the dead of night and butchered over its own hearthstone: that the son and son-in-law were murdered, the fath-r felW and left for dead: that the daughter cnlv escaped with her life by the alertness of her defen-e. The theory of the trial judge advanced in his plea for commutation to the effect that these murder, although possessing the elements of deliberation in a technical sense, were not nre- J meditated in a moral sense, does not comport with the fact that the distance between the houses ot William and James Edens ot one John Jfatthrtcs. quarter of a m le. required sufficient time tn traversing to enable the participants ia this homd deed to weigh the consequences as well as the srravity ofthcract: that all those who en gaged in this attack were equally guilty can not be denied, but the fact that the State was com peted to grant immunity to some ot the accom plices in order to convict others if not more guilty offenders, should not relieve from pun ishment thoe who have been sentenced by the courts. This was a conspiracy, the parties tc which were masked and bound tosetner by a terrifying oath attended by ceremonies calcu lated to impress the subscriber with a deep sense ef the solemnity ot his obli gation. The new testimony which you have ad duced for the purpose of overthrowing the statements made by one of the State's wit nesses. a?ainst David Walker to the effect that he not only encouraged but ordered the attaca. appears from the testimony to have been known to the counsel for the defense at the time of the trial. But even if such were not the case, the fact remains that David Walker was the organizer and leader of this band: that his au thority over the men was absolute if not des potic, and that by its timely exercise he could undoubtedlv have prevented the assault Tae youth of William Walker, which has been urged as the reason for the extension of elem ency to him. would in most cases be justifiable for merciful action, but ia this one the testi mony shows him to nave been a leader rather than a follower, and establishes the fact that he was the most daring and desperate of the band. It is a wise provision that vests in the Gov ernor the power of the respite or pardon of these unfortunates, whose innocence may be established alter their convict.oa in courts of justice, or in whose behalf such extenuating circumstances may be presented as are calculated to soften the asperity of justice. But as I interpret the provision this power should never be exerc.sed except when justice demands it. In the case in hand the innocence of the accused is not as sorted, and the extenuating circumstances bal ance poorly with the enormity of the offense committed- The courts have passed upon the law in the case and their decisions agree as to the just.ee of the punisnment inflicted. I see no reason why I snould interpose clemency: and whilst I appreciate the gravity of the situa tion, the fact that the crime must be expiated by the lives of the three men. and many mast suffer on account thereof, I discern many rea sons why the sentence of the law should be earned out. The State guarantees protection to every citizen, aad under its s?gis the humblest as well as the highest claims security from the in cursions of the lawless. The murders for which these men were found responsible were committed, not in the heat of passion, on the hishway. nor in open day. but after apparently well-formed judement. in the sol-ma hours ot the night and at the fireside of the family. Tee sanctity of a home was invaded and the blood ot those who had lain dowa in peaceful slumber shed within their dwelling place. The attack had little provocation, aad no reasonable explanation of it has ever been offered. The executive authority of the State can cot be better emoloyed than in throwing about the homes of its children the mantle of its protection. The epidemic of lawlessness which has broken out in various parts of the country in the guie of seir-styled regulators, and which in this State has found expressica in Bald Knobbensm. should be suppressed, and it is to the credit or Missouri that she has so promptly administered the punishment pre scribed by law for the commission of outrages of the nature of the Edens-Greea murder. Be ing sworn to support and uphold the law. to la sure protection to peaceable citizens and to as sist in the punishment or offenders, I can not grant the commutation desired. With tae highest respect aad greatest per sonal esteen. I am sir. Your obedient servant, Datxd R. FRA5C3S. Governor. Datlcs ea Farcah-Post Mrcnsat . Washctos, May 11.

Urn U Jaat aa Wan aUpcsaUa to taa W astataaEaat. I have occasion to walk aboat the streets so much, that without any con scious eiort I find myself classifying the people whom I meet, and dividing a great many faces and figures into a small number of types. There is one species in particular which of late has inspired me with good deal of disgust. It or he is a young man of medium height and slight frame, with a small, narrow head, a thin, pale face, promi nent check bones usually, and a weak chin. His dress is of the shabby gen teel variety, ranging from new aad flashy slop-shop garments to those that are old and threadbare. His hat is invariably a derby, and commonly placed on one side of his head. He is very apt to sport a plated watch-cbain. and a pointed shoe is one of the objects of his ambition. There is a general air of reckless abandon about him, his high collar being very open in front. bis vest cut low, his coat unbuttoned and his movements slouching and un certain. If the reader recognizes this type, he will not need to be told that the young man whom we have in our mind is commonly out of work, or "loafing," as he correctly describes his state, such being his natural con dition. I suspect that there is almost always some toiling person behind this gay butterfly some mother, sister or other relative, who works hard, and generously but foolishly supports him. Meanwhile he walks the streets, sits out on the common in fine weather, haunts the dime museums and other like places of amusement, and must certainly be de ferred to as a connoisseur in five-cent cigars. His financial transactions almost always take the form of small pool-buying on the result of profes sional games of base-ball. In fact, he comes out very strongly when the national game is in progress, and may be seen hanging on the end of a horse car in great numbers, with the usual cigar in his mouth, upon tbosa occa sions when a championship contest is to take place at the South End. I fear that he is beyond the reach of mission Sunday schools, or even of the Associated Charities: and if any thing could "set him up" physically and morally, it would probably be a con scription and military service.

Too ought to be at church and wor saiptaff God instead of breakiDg the Sab bath in this way." The poor lad in his rags looked up at the city missionary and said: "Oh, sir, it's very easy for yon te talk that way, bat God knows that we poor chaps ain't got bo chance." The sentiment seems to be growing that in the United States the tine has arrived whea "the poor chaps don't save no chance." Thereis some truth ia it. The poor are not shot out from making a livelihood, but the gulf between riches and poverty coa tinually grows more difficult to cross. As the country becomes densely populated keen business competition decreases the chances for accumulating wealth by ordi nary business methods. But the same conditions vastly improve the chances for great success to those who can strike out in new paths, can furnish something to the world that others can not. True merit, ia commodity or ability, will win easily and with grand results in this country, if the masses can be induced to recognize it. This recognition can only be accomplished by what are sometimes sneeringiy alluded to ss advertising methods. What a marvelous success has attended the thorough introduction to the world of thementsof that wonderful remedy for kid neydisease Warner's Safe Cure. Hon. H. H. Warner first came to know of its cura tive power by being restored to health from what the doctors pronounced a fatal kidney trouble. He concluded the world ought to know of it and in the ten years since he be gan its manufacture he has spent millions of dollars ia advertising the Safe Cure. His methods have been ingenious some times, perhaps, open to criticism, but they had a purpose, which has been accomplished. But mark! he never would have secured a four-fold return of the vast sums thus ex pended if the real merit of the remedy bad not been fully proven to the millions of peo ple reached by his advertisements. Ten years of increasing success of War ner's Safe Cure is due, hrst, to intelligent and pleasing advertising, by which the peo ple were made acquainted with the remedy. Second, to the true worth of the remedy, proved by actual experience, showing it tc be Uie oiilytp'cijlc for kidney disease, and all diseases growing out of kidney derange ments. Mr. Warner has something the people want, tells them so, then proves it to their satisfaction success follows as a matter of course. m Sojcb Windor Lock (Conn.) people who forwarded fl each for a "music box capable of playing twenty-three tunes" re ceived a large" package " on which sixty cents express was charged containing three nveceat harmonicons. 5TJACOBS OR FOR POULTRY.
