She aaw everything and knew every body, and no thief could carry off a coal scuttle under her eye without having a bue and cry at hit' heels. )Yhn the New Yorker returned from his vacation he found that his house had been raided, and that his neighbor had watched the proceedings la serene coutcntmcnt. Hie thieves bad provided themselves with a ' key tagged with bit name. 5 They had . put oa overalls and jumpers to look like honest workmen, and had driven up to the house in a cart with an imposing dis play of tools. But their finest touch the device that blinded the widowwas the calling of a police officer to point out the house for them. They ascer- . tuned when tho officer on the b at waited till he had passed the premises, drove f after him to ask where Mr. Blank lived and brought him back to ahow them the place and tee that al was right That settled their standing for the widow. The absentee bad over rated her acutenrsa. Instead of being at good as a dozen policemen, one ofii ccr was quite too much for her. ' , Speaking of farmers' encampments, D. D. T.

They combine the prominent features of M .... .a Mnnerw insiuu.es ana ciuue, agricui tnral exhibitions, and also of the sale or . exchange fairs to common and popular In Greet Britain.

Louis Linn?, one of tho seven con. dumnod anarchists in tho Chicago jail, ondod his life tho day before the one nxeuiurihe execution, by means of a fulminating can. Hu luid the caso ia his mouth and lit it with a cnndlo which was burning in his cell. Tho explosion was the first waruinsr that the iuil dcopIo had, the guard seeing him with the can dle in his hand supposing that he waa lighting a cigar. Immediately after the ex pU sIimi Deputy ON mil hhi 4et Linng't cilL which was votni'letilv enveloped in smoke.' There he found the anarchist tying on his back with great holes in his head from which tho blood was rushing in torrents. The scene in Llnng s cell after the ei lui-loa was ghastly. Tectb, bits of jaw tone, shreds of -flesh and yiooa were rcnttcrcrt all over too narrow compartment. A little trail of blood marked tho wav over the stone fiaccinir to the room olu re Linns was carried. The rivintfWn was carried to the office of the jail, and placed oa a hastily im- pr.vied table. Uy tula time tJirce phy sicians bad amvtu. One dresced tbe t.rn flesh, another gave attention to the tongue oi flic mortally wounded man. A portion of the tonuue waa left and was attached to tbo palate. This fell back into uis throat, sioiio.nir Liunc s ureatb- ifg.

Jailor Fulz at one care order to nave every one of the other cells searched, and Pr- ou's was tic fiist one a dtsccnt was made unon. Denutirs entered his cill, took him by the wri-ts and shoulders and led him to Jailer Foil's private of fice. There he was detained until bit cell waa thoroughly searched, and noth ing was found. The x-editor oi tbe Alarm shivered with excitement, fear and curiosity. His fnC0 was white and bis ejet looked ready to start from their sockets. He was in his shirt snd trous ers, and a wide felt hat shaded hia face. Within fifteen" niinuti after the ex plosion, Fischer, Parsons and Kngil wcie taken from their cells and searched in the jail- r s tHKce. All their ctotui-e was tuken from them and new suits, made by the hi riff's oiders, were given them. Turnker O Seill diteovercd ibe little agi nt which had served Llnng to accom- rtlmh Ins terrible work. It wsa a small fulminiting cap, little over an inch long. It had been fi led with fulminate of mer er y and i mil fuse,' which H wually attai bed to mee instruments of death, had been touched off by Llnng. At tbe time of the report it waa thought he waa liitbtin'racicar. When Linns committed Uic deed he was Itintr oa hit cot. After tbe affair, whea hia cell was searched. another candle was found. At the top of it, barely concealed by the ends oi the wick, a second fulminated cap was louniL so it is supposed that Linng't alt ;mpted suicide was committed with one similarly hidden. The C indies were furnished by the jail, to that the cups must nave been put in by Linng blruelf. The exi'loMon iu L'nng't cell created a doeiiknt seuation in j iil. All the prison ers, over two hundred, heard the retiort. Jailer F u was the r ne who carried t e news to - to the other anarchists. The jiiiler approac-licd Farson's celt "Linnir has ki ll liim-elf.'' said Mr. Folz. "Great (Itnl. Ik that sof" exclaimed Pamins. "Yes, it's a fact," was the re- ulr.

Fursons, Samuel Fioldon, Michael Schwab, Adolph Fisch er, George Engel and Louis Liung were j found guilty by a verdict or a jury, and. fterwarda sentenced to bo hanged for tho murder of Mathus J. Dcgan. An appeal was taken from tuch finding and sentence to the supreme couit of the state. That court, upon final hearing, ' and after mature deliberation, unani mously affirmed the judgment of the court below.

A caroful consid eration of the evidence in the record of tho trial of tho parties, ss well as of all al leged and claimed Lt them outside of the record, hag failed to produce upon my mind any impression tending to im peach the verdict of the jury, or the judgment of the trial court, or of the su preme court affirming the guilt oi thete parties. Sutishcu. therefore, as I am. oi their cuilt. I am precluded from consid ering the question of the commutation of tnosentenceof Albert K.

Samuel Fiuldcn, Michael Schwnb end August ppics unite in tho petition for executive clemency." ridden ana Schwab, in addition, present separate and supplementary petitions for a com-; mutation oi their cntences. vt hue, as said abov;, I nm satisfied of the guilt of all the parties, as found in the verdict of the jury, which was sustained by tne judgment of the courts, a most careful c msideration of the whole subject leads me to the conclusion that the sentence of the law aa to Samuel Ficldcn and Michael Hchwab may be modified aa to each of them in the interest of humanity and without doing violence to public justice. And as to said Samuel Ficldcn and Mi chael Schwab, tbe sentence is commuted to imprisonment in tbe penitentiary tor lite. As to all the ether above named defend ant, I do not feel justified in interfering iih the tcntence o: the court, nniie I would have cladly come to a different conc-liMon in regard to the sentence of the defendants, August Ppies, Adoipn Fiiu her.

When tbe news of tbe commutation of the sentence of Ficldcn and Schwab was received at the jail, there waa an extra ordinary scene ot activity. 1 he news was sent to the relatives ot an the con demned men and in a short time they be gan to arrive at the jail, and the first of the women to come wa Sirs, bchwab. Boon after Schwab was brought from his cell to the main office. His wife quickly advanced to bim and throwing her arms about hia neck burst into tear Schwab returned the embrace in a calm manner and toon the two were chatting quietly together. After this, Spies aod Fisher weie brought from their cell and taken to the jail library. Engel waa brought to the private office of Jailer Folz. 1 his was done for the purpose oi allowing rel atives to take their last interviews. The first one of the women to arrive after Mrs. Schwab was Miss Kneel, dauchtcr of tho condemned anarchUt. When the two met in the private office there waa an outburst of grief, which it it iinpoible to deiM'tibe. The father and daughter clung to each otlier and aobbed convul sively. Their conversation was in Ger man and listened to only by Deputy Ole- son. Then came Mrs. Spies, mother of August. She had been waiting outside for an hour and a half. Her sous could lie heard through the corridors of the building. She did not stay long in the library with her son, and on her exit from tho jail, Mrs. Fischer was admit ted, She went into the iibrary.and h r lamen tationa were heard above the tramp of the deputies, who swarmed about the placet. Hut tne crowning scene oi til was the visit of Nina Van Zandr.tle proxy wife of Sides. She was conducted to the library by Deputy Easn. As the walked tbiongh the main office she betrayed no emotion, but ino moment sne taw ah gu.t, however, her demeanor completely changed, and there was a look, then a man. and in a trice the lovers were In each other's arms. A number of curious rcpnrtera and oflicert crowded up to the door of the library, nut it was quicaiy shut by a deputy. The interview lietween (he prisoner and hit faithful devotee lasted nrarlv a half hour. Mrs. Lucy Parson! created a scene in the Crinimil Court building about ten o'clock at biirht. Approaching the door which leads to the jait-yard.she demand ed tHruilMion to proceed, inn waa ae i.lcd. "Hut I mind bo in to see my hut band," exclaimed Mrs. rarsotia. "Yott cannot." waa the firm re pi v. Then the dusky wife of the anarchist threw np her hands and fell to the floor in a dead faint, it took over twenty minutes to bring her In cniiscioiisnc, but when this was done she was escorted from the building. bief F.lierwtd had a line of police, armed with rifles, thrown around the block immediately surrounding the jail, which prevented the approach of crowds. Ten companies, of twenty men each, all bearing rifles, were posted about the jail and streets in the vicinity, all under command of Capt. George Hubbard, of the central detail. Squads from tbe com panies did guard duty at the entrances to tbe jail ana the Criminal Court building. At the Central etation, Harrison street, west Twelfth street, jJesplaincs street, West Chicago avenue and East Chicago avenue, companies were held in reserve, while one company were left at each of the fifteen sub stations. ' Rev; Dr. Bolton, of the First Metho dist church, called on Parsons. His visit Ubted about three minutes and hia effort to get Parsons to consider spiritual mat ters were of no a vaiL The callows was put up in the northeast sorridor of the jail, where for many years all Cook county hangings have tuken place. The icaffold was the tame used u the hanging of tho three Italian mur derers, but it had been lengthened for the purpose of twinging off tbe four an archists st once. It was painted a dead brown color. Tbe sheriff gave personal no li e to Spies, Engel, Fischer and Parsons, that they would have to 6ufler the ex treme penalty of the law.

Tho remainder of the state will increaso this majority by eight or ten, giving tho democrats about tho siuno majority they had in tho lost legislature. Five colored members of the house have been elected by the republicans. Returns show that the Senate will stand: Democrats, 25; republicans, 10; with live senatorial dis tricts yet to hear from, which will prob-. ably ehange these figures to, democrats, 28; republicans, 12. The house stands: Democrats, 58; republicans, 23; with nineteen counties to hear from, which will probably change these figures to. democruts, 65; republicans, 35 making a democratic majority of 40 ou joint bnl- lot.
