Three Tucson men Killed fin South
Africa.

Associated press reports of two days
ago announced that three men had been
killed in Mashonalano, South Africa by
the Matabelans. The name of ono was
given as Hammond, the other two were
reported unknown. Yesterday General
Roekruge received dispatch from Vic
toria, South Africa saying "Palmer,
johnson, Hammond killed." The dis
patch wss signed by Enoch Kenyon, Il
friend of Mr.. Roskruge and O well
known Arizonan, a member of Tue
son Lodge No 3, f and A. n. Mr.. Ken
on is IN charge of mine IN Mae bona
nd and the fact that he wired the
killing of the three men se above noted,
is evident that they too were Tucson
men and known to Mr.. Roskruge, but
inasmuch as the disp atch contains only
the surnames of the parties killed, 1t is
rot easy to locate thNm. 1t is however
thought that Nick Palmer and Toppy
johnson are two Of the parties mention
ed, as both are believed 10 be in South
Africa, but the identity of Hammond Is
stlll question OF doubt. A year or so
ago Toppy johnson was in British Col
umbia, later he was in Prescott. and il
just he liable to be in South Africa az he
is to be in any other section of the earth
