”El CUTION OIGOLLI
Assassin of the Spanish li’remier
Killed at San Sebastian.

 

UN REPEN TAN T TO THE LAST

'The Doomed lifnrderer Even Sneered at
the Priests JVho Offered Him the Con-
solations of Religion—The Story
- of His Awful Crime.

San Sebastian, 'Aug. 21.-—Miche1e An-
giolillo, who shot and killed Senor Ca-
novas del Castillo, the prime minister
of Spain, at the baths of Santa Agueda,
on Sunday, Aug. 8, was garroted today,
according to the sentence of the court
martial imposed upon him on Monday
last, after his trial on the previous Sun-

. day, which sentence was confirmed by
the supreme council of war yesterday.
He was unrepentant to the last and re-
fused persistently to accept the minis-
trations of the priests in attendance,
even sneering at them occasionally.

Angiolillo heard calmly the news that
he was to be executed today, but he
appeared to be surprised and bitterly
complained of the frequent visits of the
priests, declaring they would obtain
nothing from him. He declined to enter
the chapel, saying he was comfortable
enough in his cell.

An executioner from Burgos per-
formed the garroting, just' prior to
which a priest exhorted the anarchist
to repent, to which Angiolillo respond-
ed: ‘

“Since you cannot get me out of
prison, leave me in peace. I myself
will settle with God.”

Sketch of Golli’s Crime.

The crime for which Michele Angiolillo
was executed today (Friday) was the
assassination of Senor Canovas del Cas-
tillo, the prime minister of Spain, on
the afternoon of Aug. 8 last, at the baths
of Santa Agueda, between San Sebastian
and Vittoria, northeast Spain. Senor
Canovas had been indisposed and had
gone there to take the waters. About
1 o’clock in the afternoon, whole sitting
in the public galleries and waiting for
his wife, Senora Canovas, he was 43%—
proached by the assassin, who fired th. 2
shots, two of which struck the premier
in the forehead and the other in the
chest. Senora Canovas was but a short
distance away when her husband tell.
The wounded man lingered unconscious
for two hours and died at 3 o’clock.
Acdording to one account he passed
away with the exclamation, “Viva Es—
pana" (long live Spain). words uttered
because of his belief that the assassin
was a Cuban.

The murderer, who was immediately
seized, declared that he had killed Senor
Canovas “in accomplishment of a just
vengeance” and that the deed was the
outcome of a vastanarchist conspiracy.
He gave the name of Rinaldi. Subse-
quently it appeared that he had passed
under the name Michele Angine Golli,
but the police finally identified him as
Michele Angiclillo, a Neapolitan, with
whose antecedents the police at Foggia
were familiar.

Considered Himself 8 lilartyr.

The assassin was taken from Santa
Agueda to Vergara for trial by court
martial. On arriving at his destination
he said:

“My Calvary has commenced. A priest
will try to convert me, and the usual
comedy will be gone through. I remem-
ber what happened to all the others,”
mentioning the names of the anarchists
who have been executed in France,
Italy and Spain. '

At his trial his statement Was re-
duced to writing and read by the clerk
of the‘ court. In the course ofvit he said
he left Foggia in October, 1885, and
went to Marseilles and Barcelona,
where he took the .name of Jose San-
tos. At first he had no thought of be-
coming .an anarchist, but while at Coro
Mina he began to be‘interested in an—
archist doctrines. He then returned
to Marseilles, and, after being expelled
from that city, he said he went to Bel-
gium and London, where he passed
most of his time in the society of an-
archists. When the execution took
place, at Barcelona, on May 4, of five of
the anarchists convicted of participa-
tion in the bomb outrage at the proces-
sion of Corpus Christi, he conceived, he
said, the idea of assassinating Cano-
vas. Without seeking an accomplice,
he proceeded to Spain to carry out the
resolution. He stated that the passion
for vengeance led him to commit the
crime. As he was unacquainted with
the manufacture'of explosives, he used
the revolver. He denied that he had
any accomplices.

“QUIET” CONSTANTINOPLB.

Bomb Explosion Aimed Against the Cub-
inet—Further Outbreaks Apprehended.

Constantinople, Aug. 21.~——It has been
learned that last Wednesday was se-
lected for the explosion of the bombs in
this city because the Turkish cabinet
had been announced to.meet that .day
at the offices of ,the grand vizier. The
Turkish officials for some time past have

 

been apprehending danger, though they

‘were notaware of its imminence. Im-
mediately after the explosions gangs
of Mussulmans crowded the streets
ready for mischief, but the police
promptly ordered them back ,to their
.homes and arrested some of them whc
were armed With cudgels. ,

Fresh outrages are apprehended, 1908'-
sibly upon the anniversary of the at-
tack on the Ottoman bank, Aug. 26, or
on the anniversary of the accession oi
Abdul Hamid II to the throne, Aug. 31.

The British and Italian guardships
have left their usual anchorage and
have entered the harbor.

The Indian Mince.

London, Aug. 21.——The Pall Mall Ga-
zette this afternoon says there never
existed the least reason for supposing
that the British government officials
contemplated reopening the Indiar
mints. It thinks, however, that the ."
shilling piece and the silver dollar and
wheat are respectively lower and higher
than they should legitimately be.

 

I Heavy Theft of Coli'ee.

New York, Aug. «-21.—The~ discovery
was made today that some time since
July 31 129 bags of‘coffee, valued at $2,-
000, consigned to La'mpaport & Holt,
had been stolen from Roberts' stores,
on Furman street, Brooklyn; The po-

. lice of theSecond precinctwere notified,
and detectives are investigating the
case. ' f ‘

 

THE ALASKAN GGLD HUNTERS.

A Man, Who Would Like to Return, but
Dare Not—The Biockaded Passes.
Port Towushend, “lash, Aug. 21.——In a
letter received here from C. M, Wey-
mouth, who left here on the last trip of
the Mexico, dated Lake Lindeman,
Aug. 7, Weymouth says he is disgusted
with the trip and would return but for
the terrors of returning over Chilkat
pass. In his opinion, Dyea will become
famous as a horse market, for the rea-
son that horses cannot stand the usage
there longer than a few days, when
their hoofs, notwithstanding heavy
shoes, become so broken as entirely to
lncapacitate them for any use. Wey-
mouth is With W. J. Jones, the United
States commissioner for Alaska, whose
party wasthe first to land at‘Lake Lin-
deman, after the Klondike rush be—
gan. Both Jones and Weymouth give
the opinion that not one in ten of those
who are now‘ at Dyea and Skagguay and
on the way will be able to cross the di-

vide this year.

Sailing of a Large Party From Victoria.

Victoria, B. 0., Aug. 21.—The steamer
City of Kingston has left for Dyea and
Skagguay with another large party of
Klondikers. She has as much freight
aboard as she can comfortably carry
and is crowded with miners. Residents
of Ashcroft, Caribou, are raising funds
for a survey for a route from that town
to Telegraph creek, at Stickeen river, a
distance of 650 miles by land and water,
a. trip often made by Caribou miners to
the Casiar mines, and by Hudson bay
traders. It offers, many persons believe,
a. good all Canadian route to the Yukon.

A Vigilance Committee on a. Steamer.

Seattle, VVash., Aug. 21.——Soon after
the collier Willamette left Seattle for
Dyea the passengers organired for police
protection, the organization being named
the Willamette and Klondike Protective
society. Especial care was taken to
prevent fire, and 'all suspicious charac-
ters were watched. Before the boat
reached Dyea eight suspects had been
imprisoned.

Valentine scrip has jumped in price to
$35 and $45 an acre as the result of the
rush to the Klondike goldfields. Large
blocks have been sold in this city, the
intention being to locate property at
Skagguay.

PURDY’S PBGULIAR FLIGHT.

Effect on a Middletown Boy of Experi-
ments by a Traveling Hypnotist.

Middletown, N. Y., Aug. .21.—Harry
Purdy, 18, the son of ex-Alderman L. L.
Purdy‘is attracting the attention of phy-
sicians here owing to his daily habit of
sinking into hypnotic sleep. Purdy at-
tended a hypnotist’s performance here
last winter, and when volunteers were
called for he went on the stage. He was
a good subject and appeared nightly
and was put under the influence of the
hypnotist for exhibition purposes. His
parents became alarmed at the ready
manner in which he succumbed to the
hypnotist and told him one day not to
go on the stage. That night Purdy’s
presence in the balcony was told of by
another boy on the stage, and the hyp-
notist called to him.,

“Come on a run to this stage,” he
commanded. .:'

Purdy ran through the balcony aisles
into a second tier box and leaped twelve
feet to the stage. He fell on his feet and
was not injured.

After the departure of the hypnotist
E1. Vii Corey, manager of the theater,
experimented with the boy successful—
ly. He caused him to become rigid, and
while the boy’s feet were on the back
of one chair and his neck on another
heavy men sat on his chest. A few
days ago the boy walked into Haskell’s
barber shop. saying that he was tired.
He'sat down in a chair and fell asleep.
Physicians tried for hours to arouse
him, but could not do so. That he was
in a hypnotic spell was evident, as he
talked and laughed in his sleep and fre—
quently called for Corey. Corey ap—
peared in the evening and released him
from the spell. Every day since then,
at the some time of day.he seems about
to sink. into a Sleep, and his parents
are obliged to adopt severe methods to
prevent it. Today he again fell asleep
and could not be awakened until the ar-
rival of Corey.

v1"tt-s of his horrible suflerings from
(r. f' unnatory Rheumatism:

L; run; or J. F. GnEER, COUNTY JUDGE,
”Lilli Cove Springs, Clay Co., Fla. i
‘ Twenty-three years ago I
:ed with inflammatory rheumatism.
-' x. z..tended by the most eminent physician
. : land. I visited the great Saratoga
Springs, N. Y., the noted Hot Springs of Ar-
kansas, and many other watering places,
always consultingr with the local ph Sicians for
directions, and finally came to lorida, ten
years ago. About two years ago I had a severe
attack of rheumatism, was confined to my
room for twelve weeks, and during that time
was induced to try P. P. P.. Lippmau‘s Great
Remedy, knowing that each ingredient was
good for impurities of the blood. After use-
mz two small bottles I was relieved. At four
different times since I have had slight attacks
and each time I have taken two small bottles
of P. P. P., and have been relieved. and I con.
szder P. P. P. the best medicine of its kind.
Respectfully, J. F. GREEK.

James M. Newton, of Aberdeen, Ohio,
says he bought a. bottle of P. 1’. P. at
Hot Springs, Arkansas, and it did him
more good than three months’ treat-
ment at Hot Springs.

Rheumatism, as well as sciatica and
gout, is cured by a course of P. P. P.,
Lippulan’s Great Remedy.

 

 

 

P. P. P., Lippman’s Great Remedy, is
a friend indeed to weak women. It is
a positive and speedy cure for general
weakness and nervousness.

All skin discasesare cured by it; any-
thing from pimples to the worst cases
of eczcmas succumbing to the wonder-
ful healing powers of P. P. P.

Dyspepsia. and indigestion in their
worst form are cured by it. As a tonic
to restore the appetite and to regain
lost rigor, it is simply marvelous.

in the world. It removes that heavy,
out-of—sorts feeling and restores you to
