There was "A shooting atlray three

yesterday, In which Daniel Lee 1.-THE
father Of Bob Lee, noted desperately
received n dangerous, II not fatal,
wound at the hand OF William smith
1t Is bloody finale Of feud OF some
two or three years standing Smith
had Lee indicted for stealing some
of his stock, and Lee was tried and no.

the day before he was shot. IL seems
they left here together yesterday, in
company with three or four mutual
friends, and ut or near Henry Taylor's
firm, one of Lees sons, youth some
thirteen or fourteen years of age, and
Smith had some words, and they dis
mounted to fight, tisticutl While they
were quarreling, old Uncle Daniel, he
being some trty or fifty yards behini,
came up, and some words passed be-
tween him and Smith, when the latter
drew revolver and fired two or three
shots, one of these taking effect in the
side, ranging round and coming out on
the opposite side near the point
of the shoulder. blade. The wounded
man now lies in n very critical
ndition, AT til residence OF Thomas
j. Gales in this city, and Smith has
not yet been captured. Lees friends
say he was unarmed, which puts
Smith in an ugly situation, should he
be captured. | also have to chronicle
a homicide, which occurred at FL
wood, on Red River, day before yes
terdsy. The actors, residents OF the
Choctaw Nation; names unknown.
One of them was shot In the forehead,
and killed outright.
Spring has fairly opened and the sea-
son seems propitious for fine crops
Wheat looks exceedingly well, MS does
other cereals, and farmers are well up
with their work. The "burued district
here is being rebuilt, but with frame
ranches, and we may expect disastrous
ilres again, with no facilities to guard
against them. Yours, etc.,

ctteA over New bonanza.
y VA Francisco dispatch: The Post,
n IL stock article this evening, gives
II account of the alleged discovery of
a new b DnanHa lying east of the Com
stock Jde and parallel with it and
abreast Of the Consolidated Virginia,
the Best u Belcher, Gould d. Curry,
and Hale " Norcross. The article
states the formation to have been dis
covered by running "A diamond drill
eastward from tho workings of the
above mentioned mines. 1t held that
from this assure has come an immense
volume Of water, which has so
long delayed the lower levels of
the Savage and Hale " Nor.
cross. To test the question samples OF
water from these mines were evSpora-
ted and the sediment was found, on
analysis, to correspond with the COM
position of the one taken from the
drill holes. The matter has been kept
secret by the managers, and COM
panies cutting in the direction OF the
new bonanza have been carried with
caution, as the aim was to draw the
water nom the ledge before tapping 1t,
fearing that rush of water might fol.
low that would stop work in the mines
It is estimated that in a few weeks it
will be safe to begin cross cutting to
develope the ledge. The statement
seems to be believed on the street with
pue caution, owing PROBABLY In part to
the general lack of confidence lately
shown by outside operators, aud to the
fact that the Post has for some time
been bullish in the tone of its stock
articles.
