MANGLlNG SURGERY.
Two Fingers Cut OTby wagon Brake.

Going home on the Kaufman road,
yesterday afternoon, was q man seated
in his wagon with little boy occupy
ing position in the bottom of it just
behind him, with one hand resting on
the brake-lock, and apparently I'M
mindful of any exigency that might
demand quick application of the
lever, and thereupon an almost certain
injury to his hand.
At a point some two miles from this
city there is small stream, which is
approached from one side (the west
side) by the road leading down bank,
the inclination of which is little better
than sheer straight up and down.
Becoming drowsy from the lazy speed
of the horses and about half asleep at
the time, the man did not perceive that
he was descending the bank until he
was aroused by thesuddenly increasing
gait Of his horses. Not noticing the
child's hand between the lever and the
brake-teeth, he gave the former a
quick, powerful pull forward, dragging
the child's hand along with it, and lit
orally pulling two of the fingers off at
the middle joints. OF course the little
sufferer experienced the most poignant
agony, and having to undergo a ride of
ten miles, subjected to the jars Of a
rough-moving wagon, a contemplation
of its sutierings can not but excite the
utmost pity in every breast.

Destructive Fire In jefferson.

The following special appears in the
Shreveport Times of the 9TH, for which
we are indebted to the kindness of
Mail Agent Heath, of the Pacific road:
JEFFERSON, Texas, January IA
fire was discovered in the Morris build
ing, on Austin street at 4:30 this morn
ing, and destroyed nearly an entire
block of fine brick buildings. The
mammoth hardware establishment of
s. w. Stone, the Tribune printing es-
Enlistment, photograph gallery of
w. w. Sloan, saloon of Herring q
Longmotte, Souter's piano depot and
Hurd's steam dental office, besides q
number of Offices and sleeping rooms
were located in these buildings and
very little was saved from either. The
total loss is estimated at eighty thous-
and dollars, with an insurance of about
forty thousand. The Tribune office,
valued at twenty thousand, was only
insured for four thousand.
The total loss was reported last even
ing as being $3.50, 900, but owing to the
wires being down east of Longview, we
were unable to obtain full particulars.

Indian Murders ON the Frontier.
FORT BELKNAP, Texas, |

January 4, 1874.
To the Editor OF THE DALLAS HERALD:
Mr.. Slater, who, with party, has
been out on wolf hunt for some time,
informs me this morning that, on
Christmas day, they came upon party
of men who had been murdered by the
Indians. There were four men, with
a wagon and harness, in the camp.
The bodies looked as If they had been
killed three or four days, were all
scalped and literally cut to pieces. The
bodies were buried as well as could be
done. This murder took place at
Buffalo Gap, now known as Hill's
Gap. After reaching this place
learned that the murdered men belong
ed to one Of s. w. McKibbin 4 Co.'s
wolfing parties.
Yours truly,
JOHN WALTERS.
