'talian, in Hysteria. Exonerates
Five Others Condemned for
Same Crime.
OSSINING, N. V., July B.—Three
murderers were electrocuted in rapid
B uccession in Sing- Sing prison early
today The three men were the most
jjvferical ever executed here, and each
„ e nt moaning or praying to his death.
The men electrocuted were:
Santo Zanzara. Italian, Implicated In
the murder of Mrs. Mary Hall at Cro
ton Lake. November 9, 1911.
Giuseppe Cereili. Italian, who killed
a fellow workman at the Millville res
ervoir in Yonkers.
George Williams, negro, who killed
Charles Conklin, station agent at Crd
ton Lake, tn April, 1911.
The same voltage was used for each,
but three contacts were required to kill
Zanzara and Williams. Only two were
necessary for Cereili.
Zanzara showed greater terror of the
electric chair than any man previously
executed at Sing Sing. He moaned and
sobbed in hysteria, but before he was
strapped in th» chair he knelt In prayer.
Before his execution. Zanzara wrote
a statement to Warden Kennedy, tn
which he declared he alone was guilty
of the murder of Mrs. Hall. There are
five other men awaiting execution for
thl« crime—Vincenzo Zena, Angelo
Giusti Eilcho DeMarco, Lorenzo Cali
and Salvator DeMarco. The statement
made by Zanzara, that all the others
were innocent, was the fifth that he
had made. No two were alike, and the
other Italians probably will he unable
to obtain a new trial.
Zanzara was in the electric chair
nine minutes and fourteen seconds be
fore the 1.900 volts killed him.
Cereili prayed in a loud voice before
he was strapped in. He was in the
hair for five minutes. Williams was
In the chair eight minutes,

CONNOR WOULD
BE J CANDIDATE
Commissioner May Announce
to Succeed Self Despite Al
leged Promise to Brown.
Wil! J. J. Connor, commissioner of
agriculture, be a candidate .to succeed
himself?
That is a pertinent question politi
cians in Georgia are asking themselves
nowadays, and thereby hangs one of
the most interesting arid absorbing
tales current in political circles. •
If the commissioner dohs announce
as a candidate to succeed himself, he
must do so, so the inside story goes, in
direct violation of a promise made to
the governor when that gentleman ap
pointed Commissioner Connor in suc
cession to Thomas G Hudson, resigned,
unless he can get the governor to re
lease him from said promise.
When Commissioner Hudson re
signed there
office he vacated, James D. Price and
J. J. Brown. The governor Was em
barrassed in the matter of appoint
ment -then, for both candidates had
claims on his consideration, and he
was loathe to give the plum to either,
and thus express a preference between
them.
Connor Made Promise?
Finally the governor decided to ap
point some one who would say he
would not be a candidate to succeed
himself, and thereby leave Brown and
Price even at the sjtart of the big race,
so far as the governor wa-s concerned
In those circumstance*, the matter
of appointment was put squarely up to
Mr. Connor, who, after a day’s hesita
tion. agreed to the terms of temporary'
occupancy. Both Price and Brown
stated frankly that they would be can
didates for the long term, and the gov
ernor passed them from his mind,
therefore, as probsfble appointees. Aft
er his appointment to the office of com •
mlssioner of agriculture Mr. Connor
appointed J J Brown his assistant,
but that was of the governor’s
affair.
Now, it is said, Commissioner Con
nor has become, greatly enamored of
the office he holds and would like to
have a try for it before the people.
It is said Mr. Con'nor would an
nounce at once but for the promise he
made the governor. Moreover, it is
said that he has sounded the governor
on the matter of a release from that
promise, but has met cold response.
The governor has had nothing to say
about the matter, and probably will
have nothing to say. unless, in his ma
ture judgment, it becomes necessary,
for him to make clear certain feature’s
of the situation.
If you are a housewife you can not
reasonably hope to be healthy or beau
tiful by washing dishes, sweeping and
doing housework all day, and crawling
into bed dead tired at night. You must
get out into the open air and sunlight.
Ts you do this every day and keep your
stomach and bowels in good order by
taking Chamberlain's Tablets when
needed, you should become both healthy
and beautiful. For sale by all dealers.

of the officers of the petty courts were
pure vandalism, and, run as they are
at present, the bailiffs recognize no law
higher than their hat; that it was a
system of ’injustice of the peace:’ was
archaic in its form and brutal in its ad
ministration. 7
