Kidney-Wort Tablets cure desperate
kidney and bladder diseases that are
beyond the control of all other remed-

ney disease." Taken in time, it is very
easily cured. All kidney disorders are.
not equally dangerous. The peril is

briefly cautioned'tbem with reterence'ed- He wore that upon the ride back

to their duties before them. They
were to be silent, to keep their seats,

face with any part of the procedure.
“We have plentiy of guards and
keepers," said he, to meet any emer-
gency.”

Willis Van Wormer entered the death
chamber at 11:34:30. the curreni was
turned into his body one minute later
and at 11:37 he was declared dead.
At 11:41:30 Frederick entered the
death chamber at 11:42. the current
was turned on: he was declared dead
at 11:43:30.

Burton entered the death chamber at
11:47. the current was turned on at
11:47:30 and be was declared dead at
11:48:30.

The entire proceeding from the start
of the. first man from his cell to the
dociors' declaration of the death of the
last. consumed but fifteen and a half
minutes and no untoward incident mar-
red the execution of~the law.

in almost all respects the tragedy
which closed today at Clinton Prison
with the death in the electric chair of
the three brothers Van Wormer, was
unique in modern criminal history.
Only once before, in this state. is it
recalled that three brothers have gone
to their death together for a murder
in which they were jointly concerned.
Their death, with that of- their victim.
probably wipes out the blood of their,
line, fulfills the avowed desire of the
entire community in which they spent
their lives from infancy, and avenges
a crime for which. in point of brutali-
ty, one might search far for a parallel.
On Christmas eve, 1901, with their
cousin. Harvey" Bruce, the three broth.
era, in a wagon hired for the purpose,
drove from their home in Kinderhook
some fourteen miles to the hamlet of
Greendaie. in the town of Greenport.
Columbia county, where lived Peter A.
Halienbeck, the uncle of the Van Wor-
mers. When some distance from
Greendaie, they turned their coats iii-
side out. put on false-faces, or masks.
and thus disguised proceeded to the
scene of their crime. 0n the way they
stopped at the Greendale church, to
see who if any of the household upon
which they were descending might be
in attendance upon the Christmas Eve
services. Here also they stole from
the vehicles of the farmers a number
of robes and whips.

Thence they went on to the Hallen-
beck house. where Mr. Hailenbeck, his
wife. and his aged mother, were sitting
in the iampllght in their living room.
Both of the women saw them drl
past. A few moments later there w
a knock at the doorand Mr, Hallen
answered it. to find the masked
in force before him, armed wi
voivers, and plainly bent u
chief. Burton Van Warmer dad the
way, and with him the old an grap-
pled. At once all four be fusllade
of pistol-shots which fal y riddled
the body of Mr. Hallenbeclt. Mrs.
Hallenbeck, the wife. ran into the
kitchen, where the affray was in pro-
gress. and the brothers shot at her.
but failed to hit her. Her husband
ordered her to ties, and she did so.
musing upstairs. whither the older
woman had preceded her. and the. two
trembling jwomen barricaded them-
selves ln the attic until long after the
dead silence below assured them that
thedesperste deed had been finished.

Mr, Hallenheck, a man of notable
physical vigor, although mortally
wounded, broke away from his assail-
ants, and went to the landing of the
stairs leading up into the second floor.
where he kept a loaded shot-gun.
Through the smoke which filled the
room the assailants saw him get the
gun and then tied. The man fell to the
floor and died.

The four young men were soon after
arrested, betrayed by their toot-prints
in the new around the house, and be-
cause they were known .tohsvehsr-
bored bitinr feelings. and to have made
threats against their uncle. Moreover.

from the scene of the crime, One of the
brothers boasted of having made a
“Czolgoss shot" into his uncle's stom-
ach: anotherrof having shot in the
I back, while the third declared that the
old man had not escaped without gei-
tlng the contents of his revolver.

if was shown that the bitterness
which‘ihe brothers felt toward their
uncle was due chiefly to his having
foreclosed a mortgage upon the prop-
erty in Greeudaie owned by their step-
mother. the loss of which compelled
their removal to Kinderbook. Upon
April 18. all three were found guilty
and sentenced to be put to death in
1 the week ending May 30th. 1902. Their
lappeal lo the Court of Appeals acted
{as a stay. and the case went over to
‘the present year pending the decision
of the highest court upon the excep-
ilons taken by their counsel to the pro-
ceedings before Justice Chester.

The grounds of appeal were, in the
main, that the lower court erred in per-
mitting their conviction upon the evi-
dence of their footprints in the snow.
the accused men's counsel, Judge
Cady's contention being that when
their shoes were taken from them at
the jail for the purpose of comparison,
they were in effect compelled to give
testimony against themselves. it was
also contended to be an error that
Bruce, who was jointly indicted with
them. was permitted to testify against
them. Upon all these questions, to
gather with others of a technical na-
ture, the court of appeals ruled un-
animously in dismissing the appeal and
affirming the judgment of conviction.
Judge O'Brien, in writing the unani-
mous opinion of the court. pronounced
incredible the main plea of defense.
that the expedition of the four to Hal-
lenbeck's house wasin the nature of
a young men's prank. the fatal outcome
of which had not been a part of the
plan.

The court fixed upon the week of'
July 6 for the carrying out of the
death sentence. but the Van 'Normers.
have been twice rcspitcd by Gov. Odell, i
lo.whom Judge Cody appealed for a:
commutation 0i sentence to life im-
prisonmenl.

case. commuting the sentence of Fred-
erick M. Van Werner. the youngest of
the three, upon the natural theory‘that
he might have been influenced'tc the
crime by his older .bretbers'. but a
careful re-investigstlon of the question
convinced the governor that the young-
est brother was as guilty as any it in-
deed he was not in fact the ringleader
in the crime.

Harvey Bruce, their fellow in the
crime for which they died today. was
tried alone, and was sentenced to im-
prisonment for eighteen years.

event reports received at this of-

to refill with spirits bottles which

of March 3, 189?, The law referred to
provides:

That any persomwho shall re-use any ,

stamp provided under this not after the
same shall havc been once affixed to a
bottle as provided hi-rcin. or who shall
reuse a bottle for llic purpose of con
lulniug illfliillcd spirils which had once

for each offense be fined not less than

the discretion of the court, and such
spirits shall be forfeited to the United
States.

While the reuse of a bottle for the
purpose of containing spirits which
had once been filed and stamped un-
der the act referred to without de-
stroying the stamp previously affixed
to such bottle may not result in fraud
upon the govcriimeui. it involves ‘a
gross violation of law and enables the
offender to impose upon the public. by
disposing of a cheap and inferior grade

some are reported for prosecution.

MAYOR LEEDS‘ FIRST VETO.

Disapprovas Reduction of License Fee
for Stamford Opera House.

STAMFORD. Oci. i.—Mayor Charles
Henry Leeds submitted to the Com-
mon council Monday ulghl his first
veto since cnicrin Yalc. At the pre-
vious meeting i c council adopted
resolutions making ii rebate of $50 in
the fee of 8100 for the annual license
of the Grand Opcra House, the princi-
pal local iheiitra. and instructed the
city treasurer in pay in l. M. Hoyt. the
manager of the house, the $50 rebate.
The mayor vetoed the resolution in
ibis fashion: v

“To the common council: l have his
approved the resolution adopted at the
last regular nwcliilg providing for a
whale of 850 on tho Opcru iiousc ll.
rouse fee. While it is unfortunate
that money is required for ihe proper
conduct of this ciiv's affairs. such is
the case. And it is my belief that Mr.
l. M, Hoyt has not contributed any
more than his share. l have disap—
proVed the rcsoiutlon adopted at the
last regular meeting authorizing the
treasurer to pay 360 to Mr. 1. M. Hoyt.

“i do not fully comprehend why you
select Mr. i. M. Hoyt for your gener-
osity instead of some poor vegetable
pcddler who has paid his license ice
like a man, or instead of some poor
widow who has paid her mile of a fax
wilh fears in her eyes.“

The resolutions were not passed over
the veto.
