0NE NIGHT WITH A HANGMAN. Extraordinary Experience of an Artistâ€" Mectlng a Public Executioner Under l'ccullnr and Exciting ('lrrum- sumo“. An artist connected with a New York political paper tells the following story of his experiences of a. night 2- The particulars of the Silver creek murder are matters of record, showing how Rheinhart cut his wife into pieces, trundled her a. long distenm over a. plank road, and finally threw the dissected re- mains into the creek. I was then and am still connected with one of the leading il- lustrated papers of the city. and was de- tailed to watch the trial and take sketch- es of the prisoner, judge, counsel, jury- men, and any prominent persons who might attend the trial. The trial over, I was again instructed to attend the execution of the murderer in order to gets front-page picture of the cane and the gallows. The day preced- ing the hanging I met a couple of friends from the country and was compelled to show them some of the sights. Between you and I time flew so fan that I found myself at the Staten island ferry barely in time to catch the last boat. It had been snowing for some days, so that when I reached the island I found travelling on foot anythingr but agreeable. 1 went straight. to the police-station house and asked the sergeant on duty if he knew where I could get a sleigh or any kind of a conveyance to bring me out to the jail. I soon learned that I would have to depend upon shank’s mare‘ and started to walk. I must have walked about an hour when I heard a sleigh approaching at an ordinary pace. I got out in the middle 1 1L- AA.‘ A: m“ Ul. Minna, rllvvo of the road and bellowed at the top of my voice. “Who the â€"â€" are you '1" was the response. Or. “What are you doing out a night like this 7" I explained who and what I was, and I not a lift. Arriving at the jail I bade my friends in need good- night, showed my badge, anc. was admit- ted within its dismal precincts. There were a number of representatives of local and outside journals stretched here and there around a. room, with their coats, backs of chairs, stools, or anything that might answer for pillows. I noticed one man who sat upright. He was neatly- clad and looked intelligent. I took him for a newpaper man at once and greeted him. We chatted very pleasantly for a while when I told him of my lonely tramp along the road. Both flasks were emp- tied, and when I told my new-made friend that I would give a good deal for a drink. he volunteered to escort me to a neighboring saloon. When we reached there one of the most promiscuous crowds I ever saw was present, all of whom had traveled for miles to see a human being I ever saw was present, an 01 wnoin nan traveled for miles to see a human being expiate his crimes on the scaffold. Having taken a nip or two we return- ed to the jail. It was then far into the night, and I wm so tired that I could sleep standing. There was nothing left upon which I could lay my head. The man told me he was going to turn in, and that he was willing to share his bed with me such as it was. I agreed, and by the aid of the light of a tallow candle we climbed to the garret and entered a. small room. In it was one small cot and a rickety chair without a. back to it. By this time I had concluded that the man was an attache of the jail. “Take off your coat, ’ said he, “ and tumble in. We have not much time for sleep, for the job is to be done early, so as to disappoint the big crowd that is ex- pected or any demonstration in favor of the condemned man.” While sitting on the side of the cot I thanked my acquaint- ance for his kindness and intimated that, as I had told him who I was, I would like to learn the same about himself. He hesitated for some moments, looking straight into my face, a sickly smile or grin on hi countenance all the while, and after an apparent struggle, said : v 1' MY‘AVFVEIITEE mafia? ubon knowing, I will tell you. I am J oaeph â€", the haygmf’ . . . n 1 a“ ",L, 'I ‘D If 1 had been stricken with palsy I could not have been more frightened. I felt my hair gradually creep up until it stood on end.”5 A cold, clammy perspira- tlon came out through my whole body, a. mist floated across my eyes, and I became as weak and scared as a babe. I looked a: the hangman for several seconds, but was unable to articulate or llsp a word. He still leered at me, but remained mo- tionless. As soon as I recovered 1 seized my coab wbich I had already taken off and oâ€"r; Vfihe plea that I had fbrgotten some- thing down stairs I borrowed half of the candle and madermy way 'dowpfih‘e rigk- ety stairs the best way I could, fearing every instant that some one would seize me from behind. My head was swim- ming and I could hardly walk. Once down I got sick in my stomach and re- mained for at least an hour in an inde- scribable stupor. Early in the morning Rheinhart was hanged. I saw my friend of the evening before dispatch the unfortunate man into eternity. The moment I laid eyes on him I was attacked with the same symp‘ tons. The sketches I made were from memory principally, and were necessarily far below my average work. When all was over I again saw the hangman for the third and last time. He looked as calm as though nothing had happened. Ap- proaching me he held out his hand, which I refused to touch, and whispered in my ear: “ I told you my name on your word that you would keep it secret. So long. We may meet again. Meanwhile you may come across worse men than Joseph â€", the hangman." For nights and days the haugman was ever in my thoughts. Finally I got sick from want of sleep, and told my doctor what I thought the cause, and he no doubt told you. Since then the illus- trated paper with which I am connected has asked me to attend a number of hangings, but I have always declined. You may laugh at; me if you will, but un- til my dying day I can never forget the idea of my going to sleep in the same bed with a hangman. I am willlng at all times to face any danger, but keep hang- men away from me ; they are worse than grave yard spectera. now Detroit Medical Students Use a Neigh- boring lboof. A couple of citizens walking up Wood- ward avenue the other night snifl‘ed a peculiar odor near the Finney house cor- ner. It was something like the smell that comes from the carbon-works at Deiray, and one of them suggested that perhaps there was a crematory in the neighborhood. He was right as far as saying the smell came from human bones. An ambitious student at the Detroit medical college had part of a skeleton sizzling in a big iron kettle in a lumber- room of the college building, which opens into the alley behind the Finney house. From inquiries at the college it was ‘ learned that it was a common thing for qu-uvw w“... students to take choice bones from the deaecting-room and boil and scrape and prepare them for mounting nearly every other mgbt in an atmosphere strong enopgh to kill rats. n a-.. .p ,AAL1-X_ .. Norman E. Williams' livery stable is a two-story brick building on the corner of Farmer and Gratiot streets, and it joins the college building. 8316. a recent graduate of the college this morning : “The roof of that burn is where we used to bleach the bones before bolllng. You see, we used to get frequently three or four subjects a. week, and when the flesh was shaved ofi“ we would take the bones around in the alley up the steps in rear of Csrdonl's marble-sham, and then up a. ladder to the roof of the barn. The roof is gravel, and there is a. brick ledge all round, so the skulls couldn't. roll into the street. “Have you many bones there ‘2 Well, now, I would like to have shown you the collection last fall. I guess there were two (hay-loads spread out when the first snow fellâ€"everytmng from the skulls to the bones of the toes. You could rake up piles of ’em all over the roof. And when the sun was shining bright, oh, how they smelled I We used to tie handkerchiefs around our noses when we went up there. I often wondered that the public didn‘t find us out. The graduating class last week skimmed the roof clean, but come along with me and see if there are any left.” There was about four inches of snow on the roof. A few patches were kicked clean and the doctor picked up a handful of finger-bones, half a. down knee-caps, a section or two of vertebra, and the bone ‘ from a forearm. BLEACHING HUMAN BONES. “Those weren't worth taking, I sup- pose," he remarked. “Too common. If the roof was clean I could find half a. bushel of them. No, people in the block didn’t know they were there. If they did we would have had to gather them up pretty quick.” “I Love Her Better than Life.” Well, then, why don’t you do some- thing to bring back the roses to her cheeks and the light. to her eyes? Don’t you see she is sufiering from nervous de- bility, the lresult of female weakness? A bottle of Dr. Pierce’s “Favorite Pre- scrlption" wlll brighten those pale cheeks and send new llfe through that wasting form. If you love her, take heed. Muslc is the sound which one's children make as they romp through the hotel. Noise is the sound which other people's children make under the same circum- stances. How Pale You Are! is frequently the exclamation of one lady to another. The fact is not a. pleasant one to have mention, but still the act may be a kindly one, for it sets the one addressed to thinking, apprises her of the fact that she is not in good health, and leads her to seek a reason therefor. Pal- lor is almost always attendant on the first stages of consumption. The system is enieebled, and the blood is impoverished. Dr. Pierce’s “Golden Medical Discovery” will act as a tonic upon the system, will enrich the impoverished blood, and re- store roses to the cheeks.

Many people are not aware that it is the wrapper of tobacco which gives the color to the plug, and are, therefore. often deceived by a. handsome outside appearance. The wrapper is a. single film of leaf wrapped round the plug, and is never good smoking tobacco. It is costly only because of its fine color. In the “Myrtle Navy” brand the chief attention is paid to the “filler,” that is, the inside of the plug. It is this which determines the smoking tobacco. A tobacco can be made to look as well as the "Myrtle Navy” without much trouble or expense, but at the same time be a. very inferior ar- ticle.
