' j Richmond, Val, Nov. 15 Governor Yann today de clined to interfeiein the case of Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., and the young wife mur derer's last hooe of evading the electric chair on Friday, November 24th, was swept away. Attorneys for the condem ned man held their last con ference with7 the Governor during the morning and just before noon the latter an nounced his intention not to interfere in any way with the decree of the Chester field county "court, which was sustained by the Supreme Court of Appeals of the State. A petition had been present ed to the Goyernor praying for a respite Of at least 30 days for spiritual prepara tion. In a signed statement Governor Mann said in part: "I followed this case dur ing the trial and as its hor rible facts were developed, regretted that a crime so cruel and malicious should have occured within the con fines of this State: "In the decision of every question which was present ed to the able and impartial judge who presided at the trial, he was careful to give the benefit ot evety reason able doubt to the prisoner; that he did not erf is shown in the refusal of the Supreme Court of Appeals to grant a writ of error.

Bat the average reader ie inter ested iu just two tbiuge concern ing colds : Firat, how to avoid them, and, aecoud, how to cure them. Concarning the firat, we may protect ourselvea by four lines of defence, as follows : First. Colda are. probably "catching," particularly from others, aud it is therelore best to avoid iutimate aasoeiation each as the use of the same drinking cup aud -toweL with people vho hafft cold. Likewise avoid peo ple who have reoutly had pueu mouia, orowde, and QVeTheated or badly veutilatfed plflcar. Second Colds may be 'caught 1 from ouraishrea, that ie we may reinfect ourselves; so that a scdnd line of defense is to keep out own mouth, nose. thr at. and tonsils clean, and avoid urging with to j i pi driuk particularly alcoholic drinks. Third. While a poesil 1 gtter is oue factor, getting our b'.dy or any part of our body overheated or thoroughly chilled is another. Therefore indulge in no careless) exposures or permit" th b6y to oool too rapidly when once warmed. Fourth. Another line of de fense is to beild up our own physical resistance, Th's may be done by workiug and living in well ventilated rooraa and in the open air aa much" aa possible, particularly at night; careful aud regular batbiug, m de'at) eating aud daily exeroiae in the open air if the weather permits. Bat even after we have thrown every practical safeguard about ourselves, it still sometimes hap peus tnat we taxe a cold, and then the question or prime im portance is how to cure it in the safest way aud in the least time!

He said: "The curse of our day is sensa ibnal journalism. We have oome to such a pass that we over- ook all the good there is in life because the yellow press pays no attention to the good but devotes itself almost wholly to the bad. The kindly deeds of a good wo man, the philanthropies of a gen erous hearted man are overlooked by sensation mongers, who fill the columns of our papers with the salacious details of divoroe cases and the stories of bloody crimes. These papers so into the" homes every, day. They are read by the fathers, by th mothers and by the children. They . counteract-all the best influences of the school and the churoh. They create a morbid appetite for undesirable news, make the un successful jealous of the success ful, the poor spiteful toward the rich and the dishonest question the fruits of honest toil.
