By Private Leased Wire.
Boston, Mass, June 12.—Charles
Louis Tucker paid wltWhls life for the
murder of Mabel Page at 12 minutes
past 12 o'clock this morning In the elec
tric chair- at the Charlestown state
prison.
it took three shocks to kill him and
the utnpperage had to be . increased to
such an extent that It tested the capac
ity of the death apparatus.
Tucker went to his death bravely,
without a tremor. He walked from his
cell to the death chamber unassisted,
the coolest man In the ropm. He read
a short statement, asking forgiveness
of those he had wronged, forgiving
those who had injured him and com
mending his soul to Qod.
Tucker Helps In Execution.
He stepped Into the death chair with
out a guiding hand, and helped the
guards Insomuch as lay in his power.
In less than a minute after he had
seated himself and closed his eyes, his
body, stricken with 1,820 volts of elec
tricity, was straining at the bonds that
held It
Fifty seconds later, the current hav
ing been in the meantime reduced to
:50 volts, was shut off, and the prison
doctor felt the artery In Tucker's
throat
"Pulse Is still beating," he said
slowly. Then more quickly, turning to
the warden, "Pulse still boating."
Body Strains at 8traps.
Again the electricity was turned on,
and again the body sprang forward to
Its straps. Nearly another minute
E asaed, and then the current stopped.
>r. McLaughlin again examined the
body. This time he listened at the
heart.
"Heart still beating,” he said. "Heart
still beating."
It Is almost never necessary to give
more than two shocks. The witnesses
cauf ‘
hltcl
calculations.
Tucker’s Body Falls Limp.
That there was ground for their
fears, was indicated Instantly when the
executioner cable -from behind the
screen that hid the switchboard,
was a man experienced in electrocution,
Electrician George B. Davis, of Sing
Sing prison. New York. He stepped
quickly to.the chair and circled around
it.. He felt of tho^leqtrodes oil Tuck
er's head to malio certain that the
contact was right. He looked carefully
at the connection of the wires at head
and leg. Then turning quickly he re
traced -hie steps to the switch and
altered the am peerage.
For a third time the current was
turned on, with more electricity In the
bolt then on either of the former ap
plications. Again the body swayed
and fell limp, and for a third time an
examination was made, this time by
three phyBlclans.
Their verdict was that at last Tucker
was dead. The execution took six and
one-half minutes.
Electrician Nearly Collapses.
The electrician was the most nearly
overcome of any person present. He
was deathly pale. He could hardly
speak. He hurried from the chamber
through the rotunda and away from
the prison as fast as he could go.
Delayed for a moment In the death
room, he said that different men re
quire different quantities of electricity
to kill them. He had flrst given Tucker
the usual amount—seven and a half
amperes. Then he had Increased the
quantity to ten and a half amperes.
At last he had switched on eleven am
peres.
At the trial of Tucker, who died for
the murder of Mabel Page, the state
contended that robbery was the motive.
In the statement of Governor Guild,
which he .issued as a result of the
hearing, for the commutation of Tuck
ers death sentence, his excellency inti
mated that Tucker went to the Page
house for the purpose of making an
attack upon the young man.

“I FORGIVE EVERYBODY 0
WHO HA8 WRONGED ME.’
Just as he was about to be 0
electrocuted, Charles L. Tuck- 0
er. condemned to death for the 0
murder of Miss Mabel Page, 0
read the following statement to O
those who were to witness his O
execution: q
"I hope that God will forgiva .0
me for all the wrongs I have ' -
ever done In my past life. I for
give everybody who has ever
wronged me. 1 am at peace with
my Maker. May God have mer
cy on my aoul."
HISTORY OF THE MURDER
OF MISS MABEL PAGE
The murder of Mabel Page occurred
•t the suburban town of Weston on
March 21, 1204. There was no more
apparent motive for any one to kill
her than there would be for the os-
*»»»! nation of any rtiodeet, retiring, In
tellectual woman who never gave of
fense, and who might be found any day
m her home. She was forty years old,,
the daughter of -Edward Page, a re-
|lr< I dealer In steel and Iron, whom
nuMness reverses had reduced to com
paratively poor circumstances. Mr.
cage passed away a few months ago,
'hugged to his grave by the over
whelming sorrow of his daughter's vlo-
km death.
'in the day oS the crime, Mlvs Page
*** left alone In the house. Her fath-

living room, he found a note In

W-t received word that her brother
~'J ">et with an ac.-ldcnt and was In

room. She was dressed appurert.
out. An examination revealed
, , fac ! th * 1 she ha<l been stabbed
:! “cath. For several days, the In-
'’’ligation brought forward no person
I unity* tnoilvs and oppor-
Theory of Deiectivse.
rne theory of the detectives was that
0000000000000066000
the murderer must have told Miss Page
her brother had been injured and was
In the hospital She, must have left
him downstairs while' she went up to
dress, after writing the note for her
father. He undoubtedly stealthily
crept upstairs, entered the room while
she was standing before the mirror ad
justing her bat, and stabbed her to
death before she had an op|K>rlunlty to
resist. The theory was advanced that
the murderer must haoe been some one
whom Miss Page recognised, else, lie-
Ing. a. timid woman, she would not
have left him downstairs, while she
went to her room to dress.
For three days the stale detectives
worked day and night trying to And
every one who was in the vicinity, of
the Page house on the day of the mur
der. Finally, on the fourth day, it
was ascertained that a young i man
who had not been previously describ
ed. had been seen In the nsig'ihorhood
about noon on the day if the crime.
Late that night, the Identity „f me
man was established as Charles L.
Tucker, living in Auburndaie.
Tucker a Wild Blade.
Tuoker was the son of Albert K.
Tucker, an old and respected employee
of the Boston and Albany railroad.
He had always lived In Auburudale,
and was known all over that section.
He had been Inclined to be somewhnt
wild and dissipated, though never-sus-
pected up to that time of any serious
crime. Although very young, he was
a widower. His wife had been drown
ed by the overturning of a canoe on
the Charles river about a year pre
viously. Tucker was with her at the
time, and he was an expert swimmer.
The wife's death was regarded as
somewhat mysterious, but Tucker's
explanation of the accident was ac
cepted at the time. .
Upon being questioned by the police,
Tucker told an apparently straight
forward story of his movements on the
day of the Pago murder. He was not
taken into custody, but was kept un
der surveillance. Within a day or two,
new developments came to light nnd
strengthened the suspicions against
Tucker. He was placed undei arrest
and a. search made of his house.
Parts of a broken knife blade were
found, and Tucker admitted that the
knife was his. Among other things
found was a Canadian shield stick
pin, which at the trial was Identified
by the family as having belonged to
Miss Page. The broken knife nnd the
stlrkpln were the two things that con
tributed most to Tucker's conviction.
Had Money After Crime.
• Other evidence Introduced tended to
show tha't Tucker had at one liine
been an acquaintance of Miss Page’s
brother, and had called at the house.
Witnesses testified also to Tucker's
having money following the time of
the murder, and the possession if
which he could not reasonably ex
plain. The evidence showed that Miss
Page had a ten-dollar bill in her
purse on-the morning of the murder,
and that It was missing when the body
was found.
The verdict of. the Jury was received
with surprise by those who had fol
lowed the trial closely. This senti
ment was not unanimously based upon
a belief In Tucker's Innocence, but upon
the opinion that the evidence did not
fix the guilt upon the young man.
"Tucker may have done It,” was the
expression heard on every hand, "but
the evidence did not show beyond u
reasonable doubt that he did It."
But efforts to secure a new. trial were
fruitless. The higher courts of Mas
sachusetts and the United. States su
preme court upheld the verdict of the
trial court.
