HOT ON TRAIL OF THE RIDERS Governor of Tennessee Knows Who Slayers of Rankin Were.

QUICK PUNISHMENT VOWED. CONFESSIONS OF PRISONERS DISCLOSE FACTS CONCERNING MURDER AIR OF MYSTERY AT CAMP NEMO. Camp Nemo, Reelfoot Lake, Teun., Oct. Bl. "We know who fired the shots and who put the rope around Rankin's neck," said Governor Patterson, in a statement, just before his departure for Union City, where a special grand jury is investigating the night rider depredations in this section, which culminated recently in the murder of Captain Quentln Rankin. The governor, in his statement, said: "The proof which has thus far developed ts positive as to the guilt of Borne of the men under arrest and implicates many others. This will all be presented to the court at the proper time, and a long step has been taken to discover and suppress lawlessness in thin region. "Conditions have been extremely bad. the night riders going from one lawless act to another until culmination came with the murder ot Captain Rankin and the attempted murder of Colonel Taylor. We know who fired the shot and who put the rope around Rankin's neck. "The number of men actually at the tilling was probably not more than 10, while some stood guard and others held the horses. The whole number engaged in the undertaking did not exceed thirty-five. The Injury will be further prosecuted and the state will have ample evidence to convict.' Complete Confession. It is , learned that Frank Perriner's confession was full and complete, that he says he was with tne men who took Ilankin and Taylor to the bank of the plough, that he told the name of the men who pulled the rope, lifting the mob's victim into the air, and the name of the man who fired the first ehot Into Rankin's body. The confessions of Hogg and Morris are also said to be complete. Hogg, it is said, was one of the four men who guarded the horses near the scene of the murder, while Moris stood guard around the house when the leaders went in after Rankin and Taylor. .An air of mystery pervades Camp Nemo. ' No one knows what the next important move will be. There Is still a large number of prisoners in the guardhouse here. The court of Inquiry is being conducted daily, and it is generally believed that the governor is getting to the bottom of affairs. Married Man in Trouble.

GREAT RESULTS AND GOOD WORK CONTINUES. Root Juice Has Proved Its Great Merit to Many. Many people here as elsewhere, are no longer incredulous, they are simply amazed at the results obtained from Root Juice.

Root Juice makes so many remarkable cures by removing a few causes and giving nature a chance. It tones and heals the stomach, bowels, liver and kidneys; it creates a healthy appetite, and by its toning action on ' the blood-making and blood filtering organs, good, rich blood ' is made to nourish every weak part of the' body.

"WASH BETS" ARE THE LATEST Men Wagering Money in New York Meet Opposition in Anti-Gambling Law. JUDGE TAFT A FAVORITE.

ODDS STAND 6 TO 1 BROKERS OFFER HUGHES MONEY BUT CANNOT GET TAKERS SMALL AMOUNTS WAGERED. New York, Oct. 31. Down in the financial center tliey are not only in dulging in "wash sales" of stocks n the exchanges to boost things along politically, but they are having a go at a new thing, "wash wagers." This may be done with impunity, for all that is necessary to say is: "Why, I cannot give you the names, you know, of those offering to bet on the candidates. That would get them into trouble under the new law, you know. Couldn't think of mentioning names." Those who have gone after some of these bets, said to have been offered met with: "Sorry, my friend, but that wager has been taken. Who took it? W7hy Lordey, man, it would never do to name names, you know." The truth of the matter is that, in most cases, no wagers have been offered. When they have been it has been among friends, who "wash" the bets like they have during the past four weeks the reported sales of securities on the Stock Exchange. In these "wash wagers" today Judge Taft opened a favorite at 6 to 1. and Governor Hughes at 10 to 7. A lengthening of the odds on Governor Hughes is given as the cause of the change in the betting on Judge Taft. The brokers offered Hughes money yesterday at 10 to 9, without takers, and later at 10 to 8, still with little Chanler money in sight. The Chanler men demanded odds of 7 to 10. Most of the wagers were in small amounts, such as $100 to $80. ECONOMY, IND . Economy. Ind., Oct. 31.

i INTEREST SHOWN Chinese Natives Show Apathy To Ceremonies of the American Fleet. PREPARING FOR GAMES. Amoy, China, Oct 31. (Saturday) The order excluding the Chinese public from participation in the program for the reception of ihe Americans has caused much apathy, and only a few natives have turned out yesterday to witness the ceremonies for the big battle ships. Only 100 Chinese guests were admitted to the grounds on which the celebrations for the reception of the American officers and sailors were held. The illumination ot the fleet last night was the cause of the greatest wonder of the Chinese. Last night also 124 officers of the fleet were entertained at dinner by the Imperial Chinese commissioners and the reception committee of China. The menu was native. The football and baseball teams of the ships which are to play here the final games for the championship of the fleet for which beautiful and valuable trophies have been prepared by the Chinese government are on shore practicing for the games. American patrols have landed and are stationed on the beach and along the roads. No officers or men will be allowed to enter the native city of Amoy. The Cushion Danos.

Perverse Women. Walter Pater, an old man at fifty, bald as a coot and grotesquely plain, regarded every woman much as did Dean Swift, who wrote, "A very little wit is valued in a woman, as we are pleased with few words spoken intelligibly by a parrot." "You don't approve of marriage?" a friend once observed to Pater. "No," he replied, "nor would anybody else if he gave the matter proper consideration. Men and women are always pulling different ways. Women won't pull ur way. They are so perverse." If RunDi Dale, OL071 lng
