As the boats arrived, the captains were recolved by the race committee to re- vive instructions for the cruise and permits to pass through the Erie canal.

Smoking in silence, the old men stood about in the hospital grounds yesterday evening thinking of 'the ev- ents of the great day. "It's-the day of' my life," one and all declared, and the others smiled in svmpathy. But themselves out in their minds, For the events have not. yet straightened many vear to come strangers will 'hear fram the old men long and veracious stories of "how I visited the king," and doubtless also accounts of con- versations with his majesty which lose The ldst time that a king reviewed his old guard was in the time of the Georges.

The scene was a touching one. The old were again young. Pleasure was marked on the face of cach as the king, wearing his fiell uniform, passed along their ranks. "Three cheers for the king 1" called Sir George White, and the inspection over, 400 voices, gruff and eracked, were raised and 400 three-cornered hats were waved, "Three cheers for the queen!" And again the roar of voices. At the close of the inspection the king. addressed the pensioners in these terms : "I am glad to see you all hore today, and I thank you for coming down to see us. Youn have a new governor and = a new lieutenant governor, and 1 trust they will look well after you as long as you live. May that very long." As the veterans were about to re- peat their demonstration the king saitl : "Wait a niinute," Glancing at the army list, his 'majesty remarked to Quartermaster-Sergeant Organ : 1 see you 'are one of the oldest quar termaster sergeants in the army.

Pastor Tells of Experiment Made With y New York, Aug. 17.~According to the World the Rev. E. A, Meury, pas- tor of the Second Reformed church in Jersey City, made the statement, yes- terday, that to him and five others a murderer proved wi being executed on the gallows that he retained con- sciousness, memory and the power of voluntary motion after his neck was broken. Paul Genz, 'executed in the Hudson Sounty jail in 1897, arranged to make signals with his hands as soon as he fell 10 the rope's end. This he did, and six other men who knew of the pre-arranged signals, also declare they distinctly 'saw him make the signs, Hymn Of Faith.

New Albany, Ind., Aug. 16.--Calmly and without apparent reason, Mrs. Emma Winstandley, wife of Chester Winstandley, one of the most promin- ent men of this town, Srowned her Smginer, Ruth, eight years old, in a bath tub to-day, hen fired a hullet into her husband's body and dinally ended her own life by swallowing the contents of an eight-ounce bottle 'of carbolic acid. So deliberately did the woman go about her deadly work that her mother, who was in the house, did not realize the extent of the yrag- edy which had been enacted until she saw her daughter expire in the arme of the husband she had wounded. The tragedy apparently had heen planned yesterday when Mrs. Win- standley hy the pistol with which she shot her husband and the carbolic acid with which she killed herself. About three o'clock this afternoon she was ready to carry out her plans. She told her 'mother that she would 'give Ruth her daily bath, She filled the bath tub with water, and then calling to the little girl undressed her, took her into the bathroom and remained there about twenty minutes When Mre. Winstandley came out she showed no signs of nervousness or agitation. She walked over to the hed in which her hushand was lying ill with typhoid fever and, sitting on the edge, she gently stroked his forehead. "Where's your heart, dear?' she asked her hushand. Winstandley put his hand over his heart. The wife drew it away and put her own there afiectionately," While she kept the one hand over his heart she drew from the folds of her dress the pistol. This ghe slipped under the sheet and as the muzzle pressed against his breast she fired, Tne hushand, despite his illness and his wound, sprang out of bed and started after his wife. She ran into her room and locked the door. Her mo- ther, who had heard the noise of the shot, also ran up-stairs, and husband and mother urged the worgan to open the door. With the same self-control he had displayed on the edge of the bed she parleyed with the couple, but refused to open the door. Finally the husband became so weak that he sank to the floor. The wife wife heard him fall and asked : "Mother, is he dead ?" "I don't know," the mother replied. "Open the door and see." "Oh I guess not," Mrs. Winstandley shouted, and she sat down on a sofa. The mother carried. the husk 1 to his room and placed him in bed, where he regained consciousness, Curiosity also got the better of the wife, and she opened the door of her room. Not seeing her husband on the floor, she walked to his room. As she entered she swallowed the carbolic acid and threw herself on his bed. She died in his arms several minutes later, The death of her daugh® and the wounding of her son-in-law had un- nerved the mother, and no thought rushed out of the house screaming for help, and several men responded. They found the husband vainly trying to arouse his wife, apparently oblivous to his own wound. He also asked them to find Ruth. They called to the girl, hut she did not respond. Then Winstandley re- membered that his wife had taken the girl to the bathroom, and he asked the men to look in there. They found the girl's body in the tub. The mother apparently had taken the girl into the room, placed her in the tub and held her head under wa ter until she died. The husband swooned when the news of his daugh- ter's death was brought to him and a physician was sent for. As he remov- ed the bed sheet he saw bloodstains and found that Winstandley had been shot, The bullet had entered the body near the breast, but made only a su- perficial wound. Despite the wound and his illness, it was said he pro- bably would recover. Both Had An Appendix. "The most apropos happening which has come into my fifty-seven years," said Bishop Brewster, of Connecticut, the othér day, "was a little detail in a church service.
