iail. of two Mexican murderers, An
tonic Flores and Geronimo PARA.
When the cell door was opened to
conduct Flores to the scaffold, both he
and PARA suddenly drew dagger pre-
viousIy sharpened and concealed about
their persons, and made desperate
attack on the deputies who had sur
rounded them. PARA attacked jim

shall go to hell with me to-day" he
sprang at Ed Bryant and plunged his
dagger in Bryant's clothes, repeatedly
attempting to reach vital spot, how
ever. he was covered and made safe
with hand cuffs. He was placed on
the scaffold and heard the death
warrant read and madea short speech
and soon passed into eternity. Before
going into the cell for PARA, Sheriff
Boon made a statement, that Para
was a desperate man, who had been
cantain of a band of tough men, and
that he was going in the cell, and If he
ATTEMPTED to iniure any citizen of the
county. or his deputies, that he would
kin him in the cell. But, when the
door was opened, and the order:
"Throw up your hands," was given,
the prisoners hands went up; but,not
until several drawn revolvers were
cooked and pointed in his face. The
prisoner was covered and hand -cuffed,
and led steadily to the scaffold where
the death warrant was read. He made
a long talk. The black cap was ad-
iusted and the trigger pulled; the
BODY shot down to death. Parra's
head was almost severed from his
body and the blood gushed from un-
der the black cap in every direction.
