weeks.
lliyheson's removal to the prlsoh
from the Charles Street .iali yester-
day was followed almost immediately
by the. appearance of! many persons
who expressed a desire to be shown
over lhe institution. Not a few ap
parently had the mistaken ldea,thst
by such inspection they would have an
opportunity N seeing .the prisonen
now most in the public eye
The law expiosslt stipulated how-
ever. that the only persons who. may
see a prisoner awaiting his execution
are the prison officials. a minister se-
lected by the prisoner and the war-
den. and members of the family of
the condemned identified to the satis-
faction of the warden. Among the of-
ficials are included the prison chap-
lain and the pristin physician.
Riehesou passed his first night in
the death chamber uneasily last night.
During his stay in the Charles Street
Jail he had the companionship of Har-
ry 11. Butts, a colored prisoner. to
whom as a Southerner used to such
service. he became quite attached and
on whom he was more or loss depeh
dent.
The prisoner undoubtedly missed
his prison friend and was more. or
less affected by the constant vigil-
ance of the two guards wtto watched
him uuceasihgly through the night.
The night was passed in tossing and
turning on his cot.
,The prisoner's breakfast was
brought him from the prison hospital
cook room.‘ it included tho‘customary
glass of hot milk. of which Rlcltosou
is fond, followed by coffee. Other
food for which he expressod‘a prefer.
once was also supplied, but the man
ate but lightly. 1
Early in the morning the Rev. Her-
bert S. Johnson. pastor of the,Wurreu
Avenue B'nptlst Church, called upon
ltlcheson. Tho prisoner informed the
warden yesterday that, he would pre-
fer to have Mr. Johnson visit him.
During niche-son's stay at the jail Mr.
Johnson visited him often. The cler-
gyman has expressed himself very
1strongly upon the case. however, do
olurlug that ho bollovod in capital
«punishment and that if Richesou wits
found to be sane he should be elec-
trocuted.
it was expected that the reports of
the three alleniats. appointed by GOv-
ernor Post to determine Richeson‘o
sanity, would be submitted to the gov-
erttbr today.

Pastor Ruuoll Replica With Facts.
Mr. Editor:—
ln my sermon of May 5th 1 charged
that the Christian ministry is hiding
the Key of Divine knowledge from the
people. as did the Doctors of Divinity
of Jesus' day. This has aroused much
comment. I am' asked in substance:
Why, Pastor Russell. did you not
specify the particular subjects on
which the pulpit is seeking to keep
the pew in ignorance-hldlng the key
pected danger! But prove to us that
it is true!
Sad i am that it is true that the
ministers of all.denomlnatlons (with
some noble exceptions) are the chief
foes to real Bible study. Christians
of all denominations love and rever-
ence the Bible as the Word of God.
Under the light now shining from one
page of it to another. they would soon
discard the creeds of the darker past
and become one united church—with
"one Lord. one Faith. one Baptism."
were it not for the ministers. The
preacher-o having lost faith in the in-
spiration of the Bible are "higher
critics." They do not wish to show
their Itnballof, hence avoid Bible dis-
cussion. They await the ripening of
unbellef when they can'publlcly say.
We educated ministers have not ho-
liovod the Bible inspired rfor many
long years. We kept quiet until you
would not be shocked by the state-
nreat. llut to the proofs:
(i) The preachers know that the
tonly Hebrew word translated hell in
our Bibles has no reference whatever
to a moat torture-chamber ouch II
their people believe contains nearly
all humanity. Privately they will ad-
