Cheat the Gallows The subjoined from the Ha1tford Post will be of interest to the readers of the GAZETTE "' _ , ' From now until April 18, the time . .fixed by law for the hanging of Charles i A. ‘Boinay, the murder of George Mar- cus Nichols. Warden Woodbridge and 'h is officers-willprobabl y manifest greater uneasiness than at any time since they enteredthe state’s employ. Boinay has said that he will never hang, 'which means. that he will attempt some strategic move to rob the gallows ‘ of as worthy a victim as ever stretched hemp. By everybody eXceptIWarden Woodbridge and the men under him, the possibility of the fulfillment of the threat is ridiculed. If Boinay should die by his own hand before April 18, the prison officials would perhaps be the least surpfised:of—any.body,-—because they know the opportunities a desper- ate man has to commit suicide during the. preliminary stage of his imprison- \, ment. Under the existing conditions regu lating the care. ofpondemned criminals, from the time they enter the‘prison until they are placed in the condemn- ed cage, the opportunity for self-de- struction is fairlyg Good. They are in an o1dinary cell in the same tier With the rest of the prisoners,and so located that our times daily large numbers of pris- oners pass within a few feet of their cell door. To guard against the pass- ing of poison or dangerous weapons to the condemned man a screen is fitted in front of the bars, through which nothing much larger than a toothpick Apart from this adjunct of protection, the Inurdcrer’s quarters are exactly the same as those of the- other inmates. It is this defective system, for defective it is, that bids fair to in- crease the arduous duties of the war- den aud officers with regard to Boinay. He will be so much to himself and so free from watchful eyes for the first three months of his incarceration that he may find an opportunity to end his When the present law goGerning the care and execution of criminalswas can pass. life. inaugurated, a special cell was built, into which condemned men might be put while awaiting the infliction of the death sentence. ,' It is so constructed as to enable a guard to keep strict watch on his man day and night. By the existing rules- of the prison, ‘it is only used labout ten days in every:- case, although the pris- oners are sometimes allowed to live six months before being hanged. Out- side of this ridiculously short time the cell is unoccupied and practically use- less. Why this is so is best explain- able on.economic grounds. When the cell is not in use the wages of special guards aggregating about $70 a month a1 e sav ed. . If Boinay commits suicide $7 0 will look small _compared with the public censure that will fall on somebody’s shoulders. To guard against just such a possibility as this, Ward’en Wood- bridge has embodied in his annual re- port,.which will be made public in a few days, some carefully prepared opinions on the matter, which may im- press the directors sufliciently as to lead to a change in the present system of caring for desperate criminals. It may indeed induce the prison board after all the circumstances are care- fully weighed to have Boinay placed in the condemned cage at once, pro- viding the board is vested with such power. The warden and his deputies are unanimous in the. belief that the adoption of such a edurse in this par- ticular case ‘will be a wise step. The desperate character of Charles A. Boinay, the doomed murderer and his pal in crime, David Weeks,becomcs more evident as the details of their ing that the murderer told of himself was more bold than the robbery of Vol- ney and Thurman Bull, of Northeast, Pa., so often referred to in the trial. ‘While these two men were being hunt- ed for the outrageous crime in Trum- bull, they were engaged in a crime which terrorized the entire community in Pennsylvania, regardless of the fact that detectives were hot On their tracks. Sheriff Hawley has received from Captain J. P. Sullivan of the Erie coun- ty police, the details of the robbery there. ' Boinay, Dave Weeks, “Ned” Curran or Cowan, and a man known only as “Paddy” were the robbeys. Weeks and Curran were masked be- cause: they wece‘kuown in; that section. I'wnnxnra lBoinay Has Declared He Will more recent crimes are disclosed. Notb- -- "t Boinay and Weeks planned the robbery last January, but were compelled to wait. Again, in April, they went to ' Northeast, determined to carry out their plans, but Were seen and thought it best to. disappear without attempting the robbery. July 22 the Trumbull murder took place and August 31 fol- lowing the daring crime in .Northeast startling the residents. Volney Bull and his son Thurman :zwere enticed into the barn. Boinay; and Paddy asked the older man if they could sleep in the barn, and at the same time Weeks and Curran stepped up with cocked revolvers. They carried Bull and "his son into the hayloft and there took from them about $17, a gold watch and chain, and several other ar- ticles. Then they demanded $500, threatening to cremate both men in the barn unless it was paid. Bull dfdn’t have it, but promised to send it to them by September 20, to an address they gave. When it did not come Boinay wrote the following letter, which is a sample of hisvillainous work. I “Mr. Bell, Esq.: “We send you these few lines to re— mind you that Sept. 20 is past and gone, and as We kept our agreement" with you, we expect you to do the same with us. “Carry the $500 with you wherever you go.

Boinay and \Veeks skipped over to Middletown, N. 11"., from whence they mailed the letter. “Paddy” left them, but “Ned” Curran remained. The three went back to Bull’s house Oct. 7, and stole into the barn. They were seen, however, and were. obliged 'to leave without carrying out their plan of again attacking old man Bull. They were traded and fled through a swamp, escaping to New York state. The three men were determined to extort the $500 from Bull, and Boinay .wrote a second letter to Garfield,N. J., October 17. Detective Sullivan was in Bridgeport the day Boinay He reached there the day previous and Sheriff Hawley permitted him to talk Boinay admitted that he was the writer of. the letter, and told all about the robbery. But he de- clined to “squeal" on Ourran, although he told the officer he knew Where he was. On the witness stand he swore that he did not know what had become He also admitted that Cur— was sentenced. to the prisoner. of Curran. ran knew he was wanted for murder, and had helped Boinay and Weeks to get food. «Captain Sullivan has not succeeded in landing the other two men in the crime, but hopes to get them before long. Dave \Veeks first went to work for Captain William Pelki, in North- east, in June, 1896. six 1nonths,prior to the first trip that he and. Boinay made to Bull’s house. Bull was reputed to be wealthy, and they understood he had money in the house. At the time Captain Sullivan inter- viewed Boinay, the prisoner had some hope ofa new trial. He did not tell the officer about the crime until he ex- acted a promise that he Would not give the particulars to the°Fairfield county authmities at- that time. Sulli- van kept his word, and went home without disclosing what he had learned. The \Veeks family have sent Boinay’ s personal effects to Sheriff . Hawley at the jail, and the sheriff will distribute them whenhe learns from the prisoner ‘ what he wishes done with them. The Bible used by Boinay in prison is among them. Warden Woodbridge ‘is keeping a. ‘ close watch over the .condemned man, fearing that he will” attempt to,carry ' out his threat to end his own life and thus cheatrthe gallows. . 0 NORWALK? ._,_ jConnecti'eut Senator Hay be Offered Insurance Com- missionership. ‘ A Washington special to the Courant saysz—The statement was made today - gby agovernment official in high author fity that Sgpastor Platt of Connecticut is seriously mentioned for appointment as United-:States commissioner of 'insur- ance under the proposed new law. The bill providing for the establishment of a. division in the treasury department to regulate fusurame among the sever- al states was int’rOduced by Senator Platt himself early in the current ses- sion. It was drafted in response to a need which has become more and more apparent for several years, and great confidence is expressed that it will be- come a law during-the present yvinter or before the present session adjourns. It is not known that Senator Platt has said that he would accept the office if it should be created and tendered to him, but the proposition to secure his appointment under the proposed new law is a definite one, and the matter is well known to several of the senator’s intimate friends. His thorOugh ac- quaintance with the needs of the insur- ance companies and of the people under the proposed law is urged in favor of his Section. I11 addition to this, the fact that Hartford is the location of the largest insurance interests of the coun- try is spoken of as favorable to the ap- pointment of a Connecticut man to the commissionership. While it is true that Ml. Platt 'has but tel ed upon a new te1 In of six 1 ea: s as a recently en- senator, his friends believ e that the ex- pected permanency of the proposed new office and the probable high salary and great influence attached to it would i11- duce him to resign from the Senate.

A man of sixty who had been most successful in life, at least in what tho world calls success, said to me tho other day: “The thing that I remember with the most pleasure happened When I Was I boy of ten. I was-an orphan at? three years of age, and no one wanted me} i grew up in spite of neglect and 11 treatment. ,At six, I was Selling. paperl on the street, earning enough each day to keep me from starving, and some times enough to get under 'cover-a‘. night during the very cold weather I slept generally in a doorway, in a box, in an old barn or out-building. By the time I was ten, I was wise in experience of the hard side of life. I was as tough, dirty, cruel and bad 3 boy. as could be found in a city. My hand was against every man and every man’s hand was raised against me. E asked no quarter and gave none. “One day, ’ sema- weeks beforc Christmas, I fen' ‘bn' the pavement struck my arméoni‘they‘curbing, and broke it. I kept: on selling my mom ~ing papers, one arm hanging helpless I was used to discomforts and hard ships, but, at last, my arm became so: swollen and painful that I believed than I was going to die. I‘ did not propost to fall where all my enemies could see and gloat over me; so I turned my fact toward the country. I walked a long distance, goaded on like a wounded do: by the feeling that I must find sonic hole where I could hide myself and die. At last I fell exhausted. When 1 regained consciousness, I was lying an a soft, white bed, my arm was in a bandage and a man and a. woman were talking in the room. I don’t know how long I lay there. It seemed like heaven to me to be nursed so tenderly and to have such a beautiful, gentle woman 'care fior me. When I began to get better, she used to bring 1161 baby, a jolly little fellow of two, and put him on the bed, with his toys, and she would sit beside the bed and saw and talk to us. One day, as she leaned over to kiss him, she turned to me with a smile, and said: “ ‘Dan, I'believe you have been here long enough to be my boy—sud I al- ways have to kiss my boys.' “And then she kissed me mouth and on my forehead. “That kiss was the beginning of a new life for me. It taught me that ii the world was hard and gold and cruel that good women were tender, loving and pure. It dawned upon me in a dim way that shehad to give 'What was best worth having in this wc1‘ld,'1ove and that in order to get it, a boy 01 man must work for it. That was the gift of the good and pure and loving to the good and pure and loving, and in me awoke, for the first time, the desire to be worthy, to be true and good.-" As soon as he was. strong enough he went'to work again, and to such purpose that to-day he is a man of wealth, honored, not only by the people of his immediate neighborhood, but by his State as a man of sterling integrity and goodness. He fought his way upward through many vicissitudes and is crowned with honors, but, in spite of the gifts that the world lays at his feet, his sweetest memory to- day- is the kiss that came to him when his heart was hard and wretched for the lack of a mother’s love. And the strongest influence of his life was the Christmas week spent in a home where love was king—Anni June in the New York World. on the THE FASTIDIOUS CHINESE. Packages Rejected if Not Presenting I Neat Appearance. .1 was coming through Norfolk re- cently and on one of the wharves saw about three hundred bales of cotton drilling awaiting shipment to China My attention was called to it because of the neatness of packing and the evi- dent care with which the stuff was be- ing handled, only expert shifters being employed to move it. This is due to the fact that the Chinese will not re ceive a bale of it that is not in perfect condition. If the covering is soiled or cut, the baleis rejected and helc subject to the order of the shipper. Because of this peculiarity of the Celestials, the cotton is beautifully packed. No other merchandise shipped fxom the United States equals it in packing 01 in the came with which it is handled. The bales a1e wrapped in paper, and then clean, closely-woven burlap cloth is sewed over this cover- ing and tied with a number of clean cords. All of this is done in the neat- est and most secure style.
