THREE ARE LYNCHED
MIssIssIPPI NEGROES HANGED TO
 TELEGRAPH POLE.
They Were Charged With . Series of BaFglaries Which is a New
 Crime in Judge Lynch's Court.

Tunica, Miss. Oct, 11-Three negro men were lynched here today for a series of burglaries. Two were hanged to telegraph pole and the other was shot to death.
 The negroes were Will Johnson, Jim Shonts and George Robinson. They had been placed in the Tunica jail, where they confessed to a series of burglaries, covering about ten years .
 Sometime last night. the negroes were spirited away from the jail and the sheriff and his deputies claim they do not know even the hour when the prisoners were taken. The sheriff tes tiied at coroner's inquest today that the negroes captors must have sneaked in while he and his assist ants were out, and that they used the jail keys, for he found the cells locked and apparently undisturbed, when the regular rounds were made later.
 It was the mob's intention to hang all three negroes, but after Jackson and Shonts had been hanged, Robinson broke out of a barn where he was be- ing held and was shot as he fled.

Queen of the Seas. wrested from her German rivals. by making the voy- age from Daunts Rock to sandy Hook lightship in four days. nineteen hours. and ffty-two minutes.
 Three hundred and twenty-three hremen. under orders to work to their limit. fed the furnaces between $50 and 1000 tons of picked British navy Welsh coal each day, in order that the Cunarder might become the first four- day ship to cross the Atlantic.
 On Tuesday night when the Lusi- tania turbines were working at top speed. the heat in the stoke hole was so intense that a fireman became crazed and the strength of half q dozen brawny stokers was required so carry AiEn to the ships hospital. That evening the Cunard's ofhcers ss- tablished a precedent and gave each fireman a bottle of ale In appreciation Lusitania broke all records by rseIing off s17 knots and made an hourly rec ord of 24.76 knots. The nremen re- ceived no ale that night. which they laughingiy asserted accounted for the slower days run of 500 knots on Thursday. Captain J. B. Watt of the Lusitania was highly pleased with the ships performance, and said:
 with better weather conditions, the Lusitania can do better
 Representatives of the German steamship lines. with photographer. made the voyage on the Lusifsntas and made observations of the ships con struction and the workings of her tur- pines. They would express no opinion on the Lusitania.

TO RELIEVE EVANS

Tn the regular course of events. he will retire from active duty in August of next year, and his associates say it is natural for the admiral to desire a few leisure months nrior to severing active connection with the service.
 Az to Admiral Evans''s successor 4hara Ia already much speculation There are many naval officers who be- lieye that the plum will fall to Rear Admiral Sebree. who. when the fleet arrives at San Francisco, will be the oon,noander of the second division and who will not reach retirement age un- til 1910.
