lars of the killing at that place ot w
 c. O'Boyle by Fales, alias Goode:
 For some time gang of five aes.
 perate characters, of which Fales was
 the leading spirit, have been terror'
 izing the towns of Silver King and
 Pinal, making threats against citizens
 and shooting recklessly on the streets
 O'Boyle was one of the few who was not intlmidated by their reckless
 bravado, which fact aroused the emni. ty of Fales who made several threats that he would kill him. On last Sat- urday, George Brandon and Jesse Hayes of Silver King were put on trial in Pinal before Justice Benson for robbing Tom Buchanan,-mention of which has been made elsewhere in these columns-and Fales had been summoned to appear as a witness. O'Boyle had also come down from the King. Before Fales was waLt,d to testify, he visited the saloons and suc- ceeded in getting enoughliquor aboard to make him ugly, and while talking on the street to courtesan he said Il am going to hunt up O'Boyle" and he started up the street. In company with another man he entered Murray's saloon and there found O'Boyle stand ing at the bar with three friends. Fales ordered a glass of beer and ot- taining it picked up the glass and threw the contents in the faces of O'Boyle and his companions. O'Boyle stepped out and said "did you intend that for me" and received the reply "yes I did you s-of b." O'Boyle then said "well it wasn't very gentle manly of you.' Fales had in the meantime passed out to the sidewalk and O'Boyle had advanced almost to the door when the shooting began.
 We could not learn who drew first but both men fired almost simulta- neously without either being hit. Fales' second shot however took effect in O'Boyle's left breast; the bullet passing through his heart killed him instantly. Fales continued to fire, after O'Boyle fell, until he had emptied his revolver. A man named Van Worn, who was with O'Boyle, when the latter fell secured his pistol and followed Failes up, overhauled and held him until the constable. arrived who arrested the murderer. He was handcuffed, Oregon boots were put on him and he was taken into the sitting room of the Palace Hotel. After wards he was removed to Lewis cor ral and left in charge of X deputy A-i....- s1 --i-----t--I, par ty of armed men numberings tw&* ty-five or thirty, entered the corral and demanded the prisoner andy with out encountering any resistance from the deputy sheriff, they took Fales and placed a rope around his neck. The prisoner pleaded for This life and also for time to write to his mother but he was told that his mother would be better left in ignorance of his fate. He then offered prayer after which the rope was passed over pole ex- tending from the roof of shed in the rear of the corral and Tales was swung into eternity.
 Fales is described as a young man, 23 years of age, with reddish hair, ruddy complexion and six feet three inches in height. He is said to have been very intelligent man. evidently well educated.
 Three others of the gang, Billy Stewart, Tom Sone and boy called "the Kid" were then hunted up, es- corted out of town and told to skip and they lost no time in complying with the request. They went through King, over the trail past Irion's ranch and thence to Pinto Creek, where they, on Monday, made forcible entry into the cabin of Henry Dehrman, took all his cartridges, an axe, knife and other articles and decamped. Dehrman, on his return from Globe, Monday even ing, missed the articles and at once started in pursuit of the thieves, over took them and recovered nearly all the articles missed. The three men then headed for Globe and passed through town Wednesday afternoon going south. A posse of citizens soon after wards mounted their horses and started in pursuit with the intention of arresting the fugitives, but Sheriff Ben Pascoe and deputy Tom Pascoe had anticipated them. They overlook the three men, brought them back to Globe and placed them ill jail where they now are. When arrested they were all heavily armed with rifles and revolvers. A charge of house break ing has been entered agalnst them and they will be given a hearing be-
