One or two Far out at the lonely crossroads huddled the little school house. Now with tile dark sky above lt lay Uko a blot on the snow, and InBlde the school house, placing the last avail able bit ot wood In the box stove, Rhea still hopefully waited. She had not gone home after school with her released pupils, for there was to have been a meeting of the school board that evening, here in the tiny assembly room.

Sitting before the rapidly freeelng window, Rhea looked back over the years of her own saddened girlhood.

Petree, Tom Christmas, Otto Ste vens and John McClure died in the electric chair at the State prison this morning for the killing ot George Lewis, of Knoxville, on May 30th, 1921. The men went to their deaths with prayers on their lips, and all except Pitreo met death calmly. An hour before the execution Petree be came ill. The men died in the order given: Petree at 6.15 o'clock, Christ mas at 6.25, Stevens at 6.35, and McClure at 6.40. The story of how the four men were captured and convicted of mur dering Lewis, near Clinton, Tenn., on May 30th, 1921, is fraught with dramatic incidents. The gruesome murder, the wild chase over the mountains of East TonnosHoo for the outlaws, the subsequent trial and conviction, all served to engage the interest of the people of that section more, perhaps, than any murder case for many years. It was brought out in the trial that, having planned the robbery of the Oakdale, Tenn., bank, the men hired a taxi driven by Andrew Crum ley, of Knoxville, Tenn. George Lew is accompanied Crumley on the trip which the four men hired the latter to make. .When the party had reached a secluded spot near iRobertsville, in Tennessee, according to testimony by Crumley, Lewis and the driver of the taxi were bound and gagged and beaten over the head with a pistol, and left for dead. Both of the vic tims' throats were cut. The bank robbery failed to ma terialize. Then followed a search, which was joined in by hundreds of mountaineers. Two of the men were arrested in the mountains, and the other two were later captured at Hardman, Tenn. The outlaws had, killed Lewis, but Crumley lived a ad lt was his testimony that went far toward convicting the men. Mountaineers from many sections crowded into the little town of Clin ton to attend the trial. (Excitement ran high, and for a while;violence was threatened. Be fore lt was evident that the defense's case^had collapsed an attempt was made to show that Petree had pos sessed low mentality since his child hood. This effort failed, and the de fense entered a plea of guilty, with a request for the morey of the court. Tho four convicted men were sen tenced on July 24, 1921, to die In the electric chair on Sept. 16. An appeal for a new trial was later over ruled and the defense appealed to the Supreme Court of Tennessee, thns suspending temporarily the electrocution pending the final de cision.

M., in The Tri-County Adver tiser, C lar ko? v ll lo, Ga.) A music writer whose name was* Bennett was an intimate friend of Daniel Webster. The latter at times was subject to melancholy. Bennett dropped into his oilioe one morning and found Mr. Webster very much depressed in spirit. "What is the matter now?" asked Bennett, noticing his sad counte nance. "No matter," said Webster. "It will be all right by and by." "Yes, that swoet bye and bye," said Bennett. Would not that senti ment make a good hymn?" asked Bennett. "Maybe it would," said Webster Indifferently. Turning to the desk Bennett wrote three verses of the hymn and handed them to Webster.- When he read them his whole domeanor underwent a change. Stepping again to the desk Bennett began to write the notes, and when finished he called for his violin and played the melody. In a few minutes more he had the four parts of the chorus completed, which was not over thirty minutes from the first thought of the hymn, and lt was but a short while until the two friends and two others who had come in were singing all the parts toge ther. A bystander, who had been at tracted by the music and listened in tearful silinoe, remarked, "That hymn is immortal." .It ls sung bow In every land and tongue under the sun, and no col lection of Sunday school or religious hymns is complete without lt, and tears flow freely when lt is rendered skilfully.
