r
day. against the eight alleged
night riders on trial for the mur.
der of Capt. Rankin. when it
drew from Frank Fehringer, a
member of the band, who turned
States evidence, q detailed state
ment of the Rankin affair, and a
score or more of other outrages.
1t also called to the stand Mrs.
Emma Thurman Johnson, one of
the two women said to have been
whipped by the band, and had
her tell her story.
The startling testimony of
Frank Fehringer who confessed,
accusing the men on trial of be.
ing actual participants in the
murder of Capt. Rankin, given
with an exactness of detail,
amazed the people who thronged
the court room. Then, as Mrs.
Johnson's name was called, a
murmur OF satisfaction arose.
She walked rapidly to the stand
and removed her veil reluctantly
on the Judges instructions, that
she might be heard by the jury.
Mrs. johnson had married Joe
Johnson, man 80 years older
than she, and lived with him
four years, when a child was
born. Last August she sued him
for divorce, charging cruelty and
asking maintenance. Early in
September the riders visited her
fathers home and left word that
she must withdraw the suit. She
failed to do so and on a second
visit her father was whipped.
On both occasions she was at
her sisters home. The riders
seem to have realized this, for on
September 80, about II o'clock
at night, they went to the sis
ter's house. Mrs. Johnson awoke
beside her child to find her bed
loom filed with masked and
armed men. A man who she
said she recognized as Fred Pin
ION, one of the defendants, was
standing so close that she could
touch him.
"We have come to tell you for
the last time that you must dis
miss that divorce suit" Pinion
is charged with saying.
Il will not withdraw it," she
replied.
"You will before we get
through with you," was the re-
ply.
"If you dismiss it now we will
see that he supports the child,
but you must not touch his prop
erty."
Mrs. Johnson insisted that she
would press the case. Then the
men withdrew into the yard to
consult. In few moments they
returned. Pinion stepped over
to the young woman's bed and
said: "Come with us.'
Two others OF the band seized
her and dragged her from the bed
in her night clothes. They Eur
rted her about $50 yards away
and one Of them beat her across
the shoulders with strap. After
the first beating they asked her
il she would dismiss the suit.
She said no. Then she was again
whipped. This time her fighting
spirit was broken, and she sob
bingly said she would give in to

"she has had enough.
Union Cny, Tenn. Wien Mrs.
Emma Jaci son, one of the State
witnesses this afternoon in the
night-riders' trial, was excused
from the stand, she turned to
Judge Jones and said, 81 will not
leave the court room without
armed protection. | know these
men"
Mrs Jackson told vivid story
of several visits of the riders,
corroborated Fred Fehringer's
testimony in many details, as did
other witnesses, and identified by
name at least 81 members of the
band. She was followed on the
stand by her daughter, Miss
Dora Jackson, an 18-year-old
girl, who corroborated her
mother.
The last witness of the day
was Will Russell, another al
legged night rider. who has turned
States evidence. Russell came
to Union City alter the Rankin
killing and made a confession.
He was trembling with fear and
could scarcely raise his voice
above whisper. The Attorney
General had to repeat most of
his answ wers in order that the jury
might hear them. Russell is
under constant guard, but says
he fears that he will be killed
in spite of these precautions.
Russell's story was practically
the same as that told by Fehr-
niger, and corroborated it in
every esse ential detail.
Mrs. Emma Jackson said the
nighi-riders came to her home,
forced her to dress and accom-
pany them TO her fathers with
her husband and daughter. They
ordered her to kill some dogs she
owned, and burned her fathers
house. She identified Garrett
johnson as the leader. The
riders came back two nights
later, she declared, forced her TO
go to her fathers half-clad, and
said there had been some talking
done. They whipped her father
and then her sisters. She said
she again recognized Garrett
Johnson and several others.
A third time they called to
force her TO get rid of her sisters
little child because the latter had
quarreled with another neigh
boris child. They told Mrs.
Jackson that it they had to come
again they would whip her. A
fourth time they came to whip
her father, because he testified
before the grand jury. On the
last visit Garrett johnson, said
the witness, asked her if she had
talked. She replied, "No, Mr..
johnson, / have not"
III you were a mau," john
son retorted, "I'd blow your
brains out. We will hang you if
you talk"
Judge Shaw, witness, said
the nigbt-riders wore "mother
hubbards" and black masks and
tried to disguise their voices by
talking in false lones. When
Judge Shaw was summoned be
fore the grand jury he tried to
slip into the town at night. The
riders caught him aud thre eatened
to kill him. Finally they gave

of the days shooting, for, in the 20

Candy Boy got away at the start
with a good lead, daylight showing
between the two horses, but little
Harry Lewis knew his horse, and
sent him shooting around the curve
with quick squirt that carried on
past the Boy and gave him the pole
and the lead.
Down the straightaway It was tho
same. The two ponies were lighting
hard. but Mallet came in easy while
the loser was laboring and had to be
whipped to get the finish dash. This
