NO SENSATIONAL INCIDENT
Condemned Man Thanked
 Prison Officials for Kind Treatment During Con
 finement-Trap Fell at I1:15-Death in 15 Min.

Domingo Franco stepped on the scaffold in the execution chamber of the territorial prison at Florence. shortly after II o'clock yesterday morn ing. thanked the prison officials for their kind treatment during his con- Ifinement in the penitentiary: the black cap was adjusted, the trap was sprung at I1:15 and fifteen minutes later ne was declared dead by the prison phy- sician. Though the usual formal invi- tations had been issued to officials and those entitled to be present, only few of the prison officials. a few convicts, the physician and newspap- CT man were present. There were no sensational features and probably no event of the kind was ever carried out with greater formality and less of the spectacular.
 The prisoner had little to say and went to his death with stolid bravery. though not with indifference, for he realized fully the gravity of his situa- tion and had prepared for it by a stu diOUs attention to the scriptures in re- cent weeks. He had never denied the commission of the crime but pleaded self defense, saying he cad been at tackled with a knife by the man he killed. A few days ago his relatives ap- piled to Governor Sloan for a Commu- tation of sentence, but the executive did not find himself warranted in in terfering with the due process of the law.
 In the execution of Franco justice has been more swift than is usual in the case of high crimes though there has been no informality and the prisoner has had the benefit of all legal rights
 On the 18th day Of March he shot Francisco AmadO in the stomach in the road in front of a Chinese store in Harshaw, Santa Cruz county. D severe ly that Amado died a few hours later at Patagonia. The shooting was the aftermath of quarrel the two men had the night before, following a dance in Harshaw
 After the dance Amado and another man had some controversy during which Franco made an observation that caused Amado to call him a fool. Words ensucd and the men separated for the night, after mlX-uQ In which It Is said AmadO had scratched FrancOs face serevely. The next morning Franco who had armed himself in the meantime. visited the store kept by Chinese, where several men were con- gregated. among them Amado. When he left Amado followed him out. wheth- CT by his invitation or of his own ac- cord is not known though Franco claimed Amado came voluntarily. he supposed. to talk things over and re- store their friendship.
 They went down the road a short distance when Franco stepped to one side. drew his weapon and shot AmadO On being arrested Franco said Amado tried to kill him with a knife When the wounded man was found, according to a witness. He had pocket knife in his hand. but 1t was closed. Franco was convicted April 19 of murder in the first degree and sentenced to death.
 There are six more men in the peni- tentiary under sentence of death but their cases are all delayed Dy appeals to the supreme court or measures for r. hearing

Of the strongest attractions that has

Their music was enthusiastically re-

occasions. Their manipulation OF
stringed instruments u : marvel and
their voices are Of q rare sort. They
sang many Of the popular songs in
termingled with beautiful melodies
from their native land. The music
by the Lyric orchestra between the
other numbers was Of class that
made the show an exceptionally high
