Professes Religion
Resigned to Hia Pate. .
Richmond, Va Nov. 22. Henry
Clay Beettie,Jr, the youthful wife
murderer, today received the sacra
ment of the Lord's Supper. He pro
fessed religion and told hia spiritual
adviser that he. faced the unknown
with equanimity.. Although Beattie
ia subdued ia demeanor, tha wonder
ful nerve that thus far haa sustained
tba condemned man haa not deserted
him.
The sacrament was administered
with all due solemnity in the death
cell in the State penitentiary thia af
ternoon. The Rev. John J. Fix, the
Presbyterian minister who has la
bored with Beattie since bis condemn
ation, officiated, aaaisted by the Rev.
Benjamin Dennisyof South Richmond.
The only ether person present waa
the prisoner's aged and broken-hearted
father. The vigilance of the death
watch waa not relaxed during the
ceremony, although the guards with
drew to the corridor.
Reports that Beattie 's iron nerve
had broken have been disproved.
During the desperate efforts made
for a new trial and for a reprieve at
tba hands of tha Governor ot . the
State, the high tension under which
the eon vie ted man labored stretched
hia nerves aa taut aa piano wires.
Naturally ha waa irrsseible and given
to sodden fits of anger. But these
hsve disappeared. -
That Beattie ia now resigned to ma
fate ia proved by a remark to his
guard today, when the suggest ioin eras
that made that uovernor Mann nugni
grant a reprieve at the eleventh
hour. V
"Let us get it over with," Beattie
ia declared to have aaid. "It it haa
to be, the sooner it is ended the bet
ter."
It developed that the elder Beattie
within the past few days paid a secret
visit to uovernor Mann in a nnai de
spairing effort to gain the governor 'a
interference. It waa unavailing. '
Invitations have been sent to the 12
witnesses who will compose the jury
in the death ehamber Friday Burn
ing. Under the law the witni
must present themselves at the pris
on before 7 o'clock on that morning.
Shortly thereafter Beattie will be led
from hia cell to the chair The prep
arations will be extremely brief, and
within ten minutes at the most, the
jury will be trooping from the eham-
lar nf death.
Tha same mails that bore the invi
tations to the witnesses brought more
than 100 letters to Governor Mann.
Some of the writers commend his
policy pf non-interference with the
mandate of the law. Other hysteri
cally called upon him to intervene. To
none of them waa any attention paid.
Beattie spent the day in reading.
While much of his reading is of a re
ligious nature, he maintains still his
keen interest in the daily papers, ne
pays especial attention to tha sport
ing pagea and reads them avidly.
Hia appetite, so say his guards, ia
excellent and be displays no aonor-
malitv either mentally or phaieally.
Unless there is a sudden breaaaown,
Beattie will walk to hia doom una
bashed and unafraid.
Voted Aviator Makes Three Si

8peeial to Charlotte Observer.
Salisbury, Nov. 22 Lincoln Beaeh-
ey, noted aviator, in a class with the
late Hoxey, Ely, Moiaant and others,
demonstrated at Fair park, thia eitv,
yesterday afternoon, that the most
successful of flights can be made in
the faee of a strong wind. Many
to the conclusion that Beaehey
would not go up with the wind blow
ing at 25 miles an hour, bnt prompt
ly at 3 o'clock he cranked his engine
and rolled across the opening and
waa noon up in apaee.
Tba first flight waa a kind of re-
eonnoiter, the second was astonishing;
the young bird-man rose to an alti
tude of 3,000 feet and soared over
the ' eity, returned and circled the
grounds and alighted almost in the
same spot from which he arose. The
third flight was not as distant as the
second, but was spectacular.
The Observer correspondent spent
a moat enjoyable half-hour with Mr.
Beaehey at the Empire hotel after
the flights, and to him he talked in
terestingly of his aviation life. He
statedSthat he was a native of San
Francisco, waa 24 years old and that
the young woman, who remained by
hia aide until he left the ground,
kept a elose eye on the aeroplane
while in the air and was right on the
spot when he landed, waa hia wife
aa much interested in the success of
hia flights as he. He sailed in dirig
ible balloons for five years before he
took to aeroplaning, making his first
flight in the latter at Los Angeles
last December. He broke the alti
tude record at Chicago on the 20th
of last August, ascending to a height
of more than 11,000 feet, landing at
08 in tha afternoon, the meet cloa-
ing at 7.
Mr. Beaehey stated that in his
flight of yesterday afternoon he made
30 to' 35 miles an hour against the
wind and with the wind at one time
he waa clipping it off at 00 miles an

the whole city went out again to eee

Beaehey defied the elements fees

North Carolina. During hia first
flight today the spectators stood al
most breathless while the daring
