 To give the execution a semblance of legality, a "trial' was hurrie1ly ar ranged with the understanding that the men would be condemned to death as soon as the trial was over
 The negroes lynched were Marshall, Edward and James Stineback, These brothers created a disturbance at religious meeting near Tipt0nville on Saturday night. When officers Bur russ and Hall attempted to arrest them, the negroes shot the officers and escaped, Tt was barely daylight Sunday morning before a posse of citizens from Tiptonville and sur rounding towns were in pursuit of the negroes, but the trio eluded the pur- suors until this morning. when they were surrounded and captured in a swamp near Ridgely Tho negroes, covered by Q hunlro guns, were cas- lr captured They had two guns but were out of ammunition.
 Tho news of the capture spread rapidly and soon the iall was sur rounded by . mob which had no hes- tancy in threatening lynching at once, in broad daylight.
 As last resort, Justice Davis agreed to open court at o'clock summon a jury" and allow the nc groes, after "al available evidence" was heard, to be duly sentenced to death
 Meantime Governor Patterson was advised by telephone of the situation and he orderedsa company of militia to proceed from Union City with all haste to Tiptonvlle, seize the three negroes and conduct them to q place of safety The troops started at once. but failed to arrive in time to prevent the lynchine
 At the trial" all of the evidence of those who had seen tho killing was heard; and in an incredibly short time the caseT was given 10 the jury" which in flow minutes returned verdict of guilty and fixed the penalty at death.
 The sentence had barely been pass cd on the. three negroes when the mob, with a whoop and yell swarm ed into the court room, seized the prisoners, rushed them 10 a large tree, near tho edge of the town and duly executed the sentence of death by hanging them, firing volley after vol ley into the air as the bodies were drawn up from the earth,

VOTE FOR MALONE
Representatives Elect Loos and Bishop Will Oppose Judge
 Banks for Speaker.
OPPOSITION IS FRUITFUL
Fairfield Candidate Beginning to Feel Tint Mir. Woodruff Has Some In.
 ilucncc, After All.

While neither of them up 10 tho present time has publicly announced tho position he will take In regard to tho speakership of the next lower fouso of the legislature 1t was learn d last night from good authority that both New Haven's representatives will sup port Judge William J Malone of Bris- tol against Judge Flmoro s Banks Of Fairfield, who ran against Maior John c Tilson two years ago Neither rep resentative-elect Emil Looe or Repra sentative elect Frank E Bishop has committed himself anall, 10 tho sup port of Judge Malone. but both have decided to oppose Judge Ban5s
 This action is the result of the strenuous opposition of Judge Banks to the policies of Governor Woodruff iu the last general assembly and many Of Governor Woodruff's progressive bills were tabled or defeated on account os the activity of Judge Banks. Just now Governor Woodruff has been quite busy stirring up sentiment In favor of Judge Malone. and incidentally against Judge Banks go that the possibility ot the Fairfield mans getting the speak ership is less than 1t was a few months ago and by the tlmo the officers Of the assembly arr chosen Judge Banks will probably discover that the governor had many friends and supporters, both in the general assembly of 1907 and the general assembly which will open this coming year
 Several of the repre esentatlvcs in the upstate districts have sIgnihed thclr intention of voting for Judge Malone and that Governor WoodruTs opposi- tion to Judge Banks candidacy Is bear ing fruit in the cities is shown by the stand of Mir. Loos and Mir Bishop.

Affiliated Democratic
 Clubs of Arizona

When the democrats meet in Tue son, May 2S, to name their six dele gates to the Denver convention, It is probable that plan will be outlined to organize the Affiliated Democratic Clubs oi Arizona.
 Each county will be given it's share of representation in the territorial club which will consist Of an execu tive committee. Every precinct in each of the thirteen Arizona counties will be allowed a subsidiary club.
 Several prominent democrats, to whom the proposition has been out lined, are heartily in favor of the move, and when the Tucson conven tion meets steps will doubtless be taken to make the idea a reality.

After Low Rates
 for Arizona Growers

General Agent L H. Landis, of the Maricopa and Phoenix, one Of the Randolph lines, has written to the San Francisco offices of the Southern Pacific lines for rates from Phoenix to various points in the East and on th- coast on cotton.
 Within sfOr; time he expects to receive a reply, and the fate of the cotton industry in the Salt River val ley will then be known.
 Agent Lsndis took up the matter at the request ol Prof. R. W. Clotheir of the University of Arizona, who Is very enthusiastic over the prospects of raising cotton in quant ties in the Buckeye valley. He is acting for the Buckeye Cotton Growers associa- ton.
 II favorable rates can be secured on the product the members Of the asso c.ation plan to order an up-to date gin at once and will send their crop into the outside markets to the best advantage possible. Where they will ship will depend upon the rates and prices prevailing in the various markets. It is hoped that it will be found advisable to ship to the coast.
 The members of the Cotton Growers association have 25O acres planted to the staple, and it Is all doing very nicely, Most of it is oi the Egyptian variety. The government expert. claim that this variety can be most successfully grown in the United States in the Buckeye and San Josqiun valleys, but succes ful experiments have also been made near the town of Yuma.

Coming to Watch
 Boring of Crater

Professo. George r. Merrill, head of the department of geology of the '. :. National Museum, has started from Washington, D. C., for Coon Butte A.iz, to be present at s number oi deep borings to be made in the so- called Canyon Diablo crater" the cause of which has been puzzle to geologists ever since it was brought to their attention.
 The crater-form depression on the desert is about 6)0 feet deep. Some men Of science believe it to be an ex- tinct volcano and others regard it ai the record of the impact ot huge meteor which struck the earth cen turies ago.
 Professor Merrill made study of the depression last year and in draw. ing conclusions upon the evidence brought back he says:
 This, of course. absolutely pre. cludes the formation of the crater l J any deep-sested agency, and have been forced to consider an origin by impact of stellar body" The present borings in search of & buried meteor or meteoric iron and other phenomena may furnish addi tionsl material to account for it- origin.
