BY ROPE AND FIRE
Negro Who Admits Assault on
White Girl LynChsd at the
Spot.

Chickasha, l. T., July 1.-The
negro who committed q criminal
assault upon the 16-year-Old
daughter of Ira Robertson, near
WOmack, was captured last night
and, after beiHgt1ksn back to
the scene of the crime, was hang
ed a quarter of q mile from the
spot. He confessed his crime
and offered no resistance to the
mob. To one persen the negro
gave his name as Cliff Mays of
Marshall, Tex, and he told an
other that it was Win Newbright,
San Antonio. By the time the
negro was overtaken near Brad
ley last night fully 400 men had
joined in the chase, aud soon
after the capture the march to
WOmack began.
1t was nearly 3 o'clock this
morning when the Robertson
home was reached and the negro
brought before the girl. That's
the one, said she at once, and
the negro replied, '.Yes, lady,
I'm the one. Gentlemen | ad-
nit the crime"
The mob then proceeded with
him a vuarter of a mile east,
past the spot where he had COM
mitted his crime, and then a
quarter Of a mile south to a large
tree in the road on the bank of
Walnut Creek, where a rope was
thrown over a limb about eight
cen feet high and one end knot
ted about the mans neck.
he was given an opportunity
to speak, and again confessed
his guilt and, after . feryent
prayer to God for forgiveness, he
was drawn into the air to die by
strangulation. Before life was
extinct the body was lowered to
the ground, logs and brush were
heaped upon it and the mass
ignited. For q moment the body
a few grOans were heard
and the flames completed their |
work.

FIFN-MHTH NOW HISTORY
Declared to be Most Important
Session iof Many Years.

Washington, ID. O., June 3d.
Promptly at 10 o'clock tonight
Vice-President Fairbanks in the
senate and Speaker Cannon in
the house declared the final ad-
jOurnment Of the first session of
the fifty-ninth congress.
For the first time congress ad-
iOurned on the day which closed
the fiscal year. Other sessions
had adjourned before and some
after June 30, but the fifty-ninth
congress ended its first session
on the day when the government
strikes its balances and closes
its books.
There were some interesting
features to mark the end which
came when there was less than a
quorum in either house. Many
senator's and representatives be-
heving that the adjournment
would come early in the day,
made arrangements to leave in
the afternoon and did not remain
for the closing scenes.
The work accomplished by the
session is told by speaker Can.
non to the Associated Press. He
said:
In my Judgment the work
done and legislation enacted in
the session closed exceeds in
Importance for the best interests
Of the people, the work of any
session during my thirty years
of public life.
The legislation covering the
appropriations and the authoriz-
ing of public expenditures has
been most carefully considered
and wisely enacted. The legis-
latiOn commonly referred to as
the rate legislation, pure food
bill, inspection feature of the
agricultural bill-all are mea- |
sures that affect the interest of
all the people and while nothing |
perfect can be enacted. / am
satisfied that the operation of
theselaws will demonstrate their
wisdom.
And / believe, if nothing
else had been accomplished than
the enactment of these three
measures, they alone would be
sufficient to make the first ses-
sion of the fifty-ninth congress
memorable in the history of the |
republic"
