Reno, New, March 7.-Nevada's

of its first legal shooting of murderers
under the new law providing for the
choice between that and hanging by
condemned men.
Two such murderers have chosen
that mode of death. while third, MINI
rod Uric. has selected hanging. Three

hanging as means OF paying the ex.
IRENE penalty for their crime.
The condemned murderers will sit
inside a steel framework on which are
to be trained three rifles to which
have been attached the Maxim 81
lencers. The rifles will be aimed di.
rectly at the hearts OF the victims.
zles of the guns and the legal wit
nesses who will watch the execution
will not know when the death dealing
yolley is to be fired.
Their first knowledge of each execu-
ton will be when the murderers'
bodies collapse in death.

In THE INTEREST OF
THE A. & N. COLLEGE.
Enthusiastic Meeting of the CONNER
cia Club Held Last Night
for This Purpose.

An enthusiastic and intensely ear
nest meeting of the Bryan Commercial
Club was held last night in the inter.
est of the A. and NJ. College. The
meeting was attended by large mum.
Der of the members of the club, a
number of citizens, and President R.
T. Miner and Dean Charles Puryear
of the college.
The meeting was called to order by
! President L. l.. McInnis, who stated
that in view of the slanderous and I'M
truthful rumors that were being cir.
culated by the enemies of the college,
which were calculated to prejudice the
members of the Legislature and in
fluence them in the appropriations for
the college, the meeting had been
called for council as to how best to
counteract these reports.
Colonel Miner was called on and
responded with a complete refutation
of every charge that had been made
against the college, and closed with
a concise statement of existing condi.
tons, which would be satisfactory and
convincing to any fair-minded man in
the world. He referred to the late
trouble at the college as a mere cpl
sode, likely to occur, and which does
occur at all colleges and universities.
l. was now ended, normal conditions
restored, nearly all the students back,
and the affair would really have been
forgotten had it not been famed and
enlarged and misstated and twisted by
the enemies of the institution.
Colonel Miner was followed by
Dean Puryear, who spoke along the
same lines, and stressing the fact that
the course followed by the faculty at
the recent outbreak was the only way
left open to them to preserve author
ity and maintain discipline.
Earnest talks were made by Prof |
j. H. Allen, j. Allen Myers, Judge |
V. B. Hudson, Judge ]. T. Maloney, |
DR.. R. j. Hunnicutt, E. ]. Fountain,
Judge j. w. Doremus, Ed Hall, Mr.. |
II. T. Lawler and others.
The consensus of opinion of all pres.
ent was that the college will emerge
rom its trials and tribulations
stronger and grander than ever be-
ore. The firm stand taken by the
aculty has entrenched it in the con-
idence of the people of Texas, and all
believed the opening next autumn
would be the largest in its history.
Every man present pledged himself
o work in the interest of the college
nd combat in every way possible the
alse and slanderous reports that are
eing circulated throughout the State
y its enemies.
