TO HANG ONE AT A TIME
Arizone Board of Control Overrules
Governor "Bee" Plan

Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. g." Hang
them one at a time," was the word
sent by the board of control yesterday
to R. B. Sims, warden of the peniten-
tiary. The board refused to grant a
permit for a special scaffold for the
hanging bee on December 10, and re-
jected an offer foom j. F. Kulian, of
Cheyenne, Wyo., to construct a scat
fold on which all the men would spring
their own traps at the same moment.
Governor Hunt had said that the
scaffold in the Jail yard, the only place
where it could be placed under the
law would have an undesirable effect
on the other prisoners.
The list to hang on December 10
was reduced yesterday. to six, when
the Governor was notified that w. w.
Kermeen, Francisco Garcia, Atha M.
Leonard, John Tomlin and Richard
Dayton Talley had succeeded in get
ting applications for new trials before
the Supreme Court.
The governor has practically decid-
ed to test in court the law taking from
him the pardoning, reprieving and
committing power and placing it in the
hands of the board. This law was pass
ed by the Legislature and upheld by
the voters last month.

Size of an Atom

''Radium emanations,' said Profes-
sor William Crookes in lecture in Lon
don, care due to the breaking down of
the atom of radium, and electricians
are constantly flying off with about
two-thirds the speed of light (1S2, 900
miles per second). These electrons are
now looked upon as being absolute
units of negative electricity. To try
to illustrate their size is difficult. I'M
agine one drop of water magnifed to
the size of the earth $4,000 miles in di-
ameter). An atom would then be about
the size of walnut or a cricket ball.
Now magnify the cricket ball or atom
to cube of about 100 feet each side.
The electron would be about the size
of this dot (.)-one one-hundredths Of
an inch in diameter. The mind cannot
conceive such figures"

The PLANTING OF TREES
Can Be Set Out Any Time in Fall and
Winter When Ground Is Not
Frozen, Says Surface

A correspondent from the northern
part of Pennsylvania wrote to State
Zo%ogist H. A. Surface, asking for in
formation as to the proper time to
plant trees. The reply may interest
many persons who wish to plant one or
more trees about their premises before
the next growing season. 1t is based
upon experience in planting thousands
Of trees, and is as follows:
You can transplant trees at any
time in the fall or winter when the
ground is not frozen. I would just as
soon plant in the fall as in the spring
as far as future growing is concerned,
and, in fact, l during recent years have
been doing most of my planting in the
fall of the year. Trees that are hard
to get to grow, like cherry, are much
better planted in the fall. The main
point is that if you have the trees at
hand for very early spring planting,
and they have been wintered properly
and in good condition, that, on the
whole may prove to be the best time
for planting; but between planting late
in the spring and at any time during
the fall or early winter, very much
prefer the latter. The poorest time of
the year to plant trees is late in the
spring. I am frequently asked, How
late can plants' There is but one re-
ply to this, and that is, The earlier the
better
"You should bear in mind that at
the time of planting the tops should be
cut back in proportion to the root cut
ting that was done in digging the tree.
This means in most cases that three
fourths of the top should be cut off.
Leave some twigs with buds, as growth
starts quicker and surer if the buds are
there than though the tree must push
forth new shoots from latent or unde-
veloped buds"
