 ;he Jurt, and i. ia hereby ordered, that you. William Haldcrman and Thomas Hailermeu, be taken her rce to the county .ii ald thnre couiinei until Friday, the 2J:;i day of August, 1899, and on that day, between the hours of ten o'clock in the forenoon and five o'clock in the afternoon, each oi you be hanged by the nsck until you are dead and may G d have mercy upon your souls"
 The above .srre the woris Of Judge Davis as he pronounced sentence this afternoon upon Inc two convicted mur icrcrs of Ted Moore and Con- stable Ain, worth.
 The pri .Cn,rs wAeu asked if they .hould net be pronounced replied they lad none aul when the sentence was pa 'sed their countenanoe showed ;he samo s,oicAl, un!eeling indifference that has characterized them during tho entire trial. h leaving the cour t roon to return to their cells, Vim Ii ild armau the older of ths two brothers, noticed an acquaintance seated near the isle and as he passed him the condsm med murderer smilingly said i'll a loud enough tone 'hIt 1t could be heard by all in lhs room "a good shot. eh." When the officers and prisoners ieacht d the stairway the same prisoner s;nbbed his foCt against the carpet, the le Of one shoe being loose. This brought momentary stop to ,h. procession, and being il little dis comtited by the incident, Haiderman said, ""e are wearing out our shoes tray, Ing up and down these stairs, eh Tom?' aad followed with a good laugh. Tom who evidently also thr ught the matter huge joke GcGuIesced a:.d smiled.
 The sentence dii rot affect the condemned men in the least. When returned io their cells, both brothers acted as if not happened and were soon engaged in playing game oi cards.
 While the prisoners Were being taken to jail their attorneys filed notice Of appeal to the supreme court and the court granted the attorneys until July 20,h to file bill of exceptions. As the supreme court does not meet until October it is very probable the execution of the death sentence VII be delayed until the supreme court acts on the appeal, meanwhile the death watch will Lc pu; on the prisoners and every precsu:ion taken.
