Aunt Becky, come oftener,
your letters are so sunshiny.
They seem to make new inspira-
tions and make everybody glad.
Last Saturday evening Mr.. w. j. P.
called at the phone Office to see
Miss Rosa B.
They chatted and talked and thought
it fine until the hour was about
nine.
He seems to enjoy those Office calls,
But he never once thought there
would be any falls.
But alas, on Sunday eve, if might say,
He said to another, Lets attend the
Children's Day."
So both girls were there in all their
glee,
But what was said l can't tell, so
please excuse me-
But they didn't look so pleasant as they
did Saturday eve,
But then l mustn't tell, so will leave
With best wishes to The Robe
sonian.

Tip Burton Tells the Story
OF Capt. Quinton Rankin's
Murder.
COILS OF LAW TIGHTEN
Gives the Names of Forty
of the Masked Night
Riders.

Tiptonville, Oct. 28.-In the pres
ence of Sheriff Haynes, Judge Har-
rls and Mayor Cleveland Donaldson,
Tip Burton, the night rider arrested
last Thursday at Samburg, made a
full confession in the Lake county
jail at Tiptonville. He implicated
forty we'll known residents of the
Lake district in the murder of Capt.
Qulnton Rankin Monday night a
week ago. Of this number over
half are now held prisoners in Camp
Memo under the guard of State
troops.
Burton denies that he was with
the night riders when Capt. Rankin
was hung, but admits that he fur
nished the information to the leaders
Of the band that caused them to
swoop down upon the hotel at Wal
nut Log.
TELLS NAMES OF LEADERS.
According to Burton's statements
Tom and Carrot Johnson, both of
whom are under arrest at Camp
Memo, and Will Watson were the
leaders of the night riders who per-
petrated the dastardly crime. Wat
son is now at large under a $4,000
bond for having participated In the
whipping of Justice of the Peace
George VIM in Lake county about
four months ago.
With Burton's confession at their
disposal and with other valuable in
formation which was obtained today,
it is confidently expected by the au-
thorities that it will be but matter
of a few short hours before the
members Of the crew still at large
are taken in custody. Burton said
that he went to Walnut Log the
night before the murder and there
had a conversation with James F.
Carpenter, the attorney of this city,
at whose solicitation Col. Taylor an d
Capt. Rankin, made the journey to
Walnut Log, ostensibly to arrange a
deal in timber lands, but as it is now
alleged, Carpenters sole purpose
was to place them at the mercy of
the night riders.
SAW VICTIMS AT SUPPER.
After this conversation with Car
penter, Burton told the authorities
that he communicated with the lead
ers of the night riders and betrayed
the presence of the victims. He said

No one can afford to miss seeing his

better In the line of magic in the
world and the people of the Sioux Val

derful exhibition. He is one of the
most remarkable performers ever seen
in America one who, both in Europe
and America, has excited the most
unbounded enthusiasm and called
forth praise so lavish as to appear ex-
aggerated to those who have not had
the extreme pleasure of witnessing
his wonderful performance.
Nicola is probably the youngest sue
cessful magician before the public,
and magical science Is indebted to It's
youngest artist for many of the new
and up-to-date methods by its expon.
