EXECUTION OF
HENRYSPENCER
Self Confessed Murderer of
25 Persons Paid Penalty
Y esterday. Modern Dr.
Jekyl and Mr. Hyde.
Chicago, III#.-- Henry Spencer, who
to twenty-five murders and
many other horrible crimes, wan hajig
e<J yesterday In the Du Page county Jail
at Wheaton, fll. # for slaying Mrs. Mil
dred Allison Kexroat. a tango teacher
who was Infatuated with hlin.
The hardened criminal a few days ago
had said, “I'm tired of waiting; get out
the rope and let's have It over.”
Spencer's victims were mostly women.
"I have killed men, 1 ’ he said recently
"hut women alwnys attracted tne to the
evtent that they filled me with a mur
derous passion. lam a woman-hater.”
Spencer was a real "Dr. Jekyll and
Mr. Hyde." He attended church regu
larly often led In prayer and worked as
a clerk. In his last days he enjoyed
much recounting his frightful misdeeds.
Meet at Dance Hall.
"I met Mrs. Rextroat at a dance li&lf,"
he said In his latest version, “and took
her home that night. We became frleno
ly, tilling each other our troubles. 1
figured she thought me a kind of easy
mark and I danced awkwardly to hire
her on. She tried to teach me the tan
go and I told her I would gladly pav
her fI.BO a lesson for instruction. At
first i had no thought of killing her. I
had killed so many other women, how
ever, that the thought of murdering her
didn't bother me much, and one night 1
got it Into my head I ought to have the
big dlumond ring she wore.
"I told her 1 was a farmer from near
Wayne and she could orzanlge a tango
class there. At first 1 was going to
Uke her to Michigan and kill her but
she was so easy I decided that was too
much trouble. She kept her appointment
to meet me September 26th and on the
way to aWyne we talked about our sr
proachlng marriage."
Shot Her.
"We arrived In Wayne about 7:30 p.
m. When we left the train It was veiy
dark. I led her down the railroad tracks
and below the viaduct l shot her
through the head. She made no cry
nnd I had to shoot only once. I th6n
put her body across the railroad tracks,
after drawing off her g.ove, taking ncr
ring, and putting the glove back again.
Wljen I got back to Chicago I gave the
ring to a girl I met on the street. About
this time I found my landlady had some
money and If I had not been caught 1
would have killed her."
Investigators who looked up Spencer s
list of murders decided his story was
"80 per cent true."

PRINCE ADALBERT OF PRUSSIA.
Berlin.— The romance of Prince Ad
albert, Emperor William’s sailor son.
Is engaging society. He was away
from Kiel a Week and has not been
seen in recent family gatherings. His
stay at Carlpbad as the Duke of Hohen
steln is undoubtedly due to grief over
his love affair. Two years ago he be
came engaged to the beautiful daugh
ter of a Hungarian count. The ent
perer broke . off the manth and since
Adalbert has frequently approached
his father on the subject, but in vain.
A crisis.came when Adalbert learned
a morganatic marriage for his broth
er Oscar had been sanctioned, and It
is even hinted that Adalbert went
through a, secret marriage ceremony at
Budapest a. short time ago.
VESSEL OWNERS
IRE DISTURBED
American Steamship Ass’n
Fear Any Hasty Action by
Congress in Present Crisis
New York, Aug. I.—Officials of the
American Steamship Asosciutton, com
posed of various coastwise linea, are
disturbed by the news from Washing
ton of a movement to enable the iaTge
trans-Atlantic steamships to obtain
American register.
H. B. Raymond, president of thdcas
sociation, said he feared any hasty ac
tion on the part of congress might pre
manently injure the American mer
chant 1 marine.
"At the present time, under the Pan
ama act of 1912," Mr. Raymond eaid,
"any foreign built ship which at the
time of its application for admittance
to the American register is not more
than five years old can become an
American vessel. Its officers must* be
American citizens, however, and It can
enter into all trades except the, coast
wise trade. Only American ships can
enter the coastwise trad*.
“The association fears that unless
congress uses the proper deliberation
in considering any measure to cover
the threatened European wars, a blow
at American shipping mu> be struck.
Kor instance, the legislative body of
the nation must be careful ln-revlsnig
any marina legislation to see thnt no
error occurrs by which these foreign
vessels are allowed in the coastwise
trade."
PREPARING THE WAY.
Clgude had disobeyed his parents,
and'his mother knew of it.
'1 am afraid," she said, "that when
I tell your father what you have been
doing this forenoon he wilt punish you
severely.”
"Have you got to teit him. Mother?"
asked the hoy.
“Yes," was the reply; "I shall tell
him Immediately after dinner."
"Well. Mother." said the boy. “give
him a real good dinner, wont you?
You might do as much as that for me"
