neutrality-suspicious. of Richard I'LL Sat
urday evening was one of the finest rieces of
acting ever seen on the Augusta stage, and it
is a severe commentary on the dramatic cul-
ture of our people that the eminent tragedian
played to an audience which did not one-third
fill the hall. From his advent before the
footlights in the famous soliloquy Of Gloster
to the termination of the fatal duel with Rich
mond, Keene cast away his individuality and
became for the noEce the scheming, savage,
malevolent tyrant of the play. Keene has the
art to conceal art. One forgets that he Is
acting, and almost sees, in the misshapen ig-
ure and baleful countenance, Richard him
self strutting his brief hour upon the stage.
The various costumes worn by the tragedian
were extremely rich, and with better setting
than Granite Hall affords the tragedy would
have held the audience spellbound. 1t is
wonderful, the play of emotions in the facile
face Of the actor. keene's conception of the
role varies somewhat from Booths. He
makes Richard character almost devilish in
his intensity of wickedness, unrelieved by
single fash Of humane impulse. The support
was not strong. although the Richmond OF
George Learock and the Queen Elizabeth OF
Georgia Tyler were extremely well done.

THE LA nARCE SHOOTING
Two Stories of the Affair from lar.
uEts ON the Spot

The LEADER is in receipt of a COM
munication from a correspondent at La

place on the End inst:
LA BARGE, June ?, 1882.
Editor Leader:
Sir: There was q man shot in this
place on the End of May and badly
wounded. He is considered a hard case
and went by the name of William Hill,
but confessed his real name to be W. II.

1t is said that he had been arrested fol-
murder, convicted and sentenced to be
hung but escaped, and that he has beer
stealing sheep somewhere on the Platte
river. He has a brother in Atlantic
City, Iowa.
Peedmore is about 40 years old, /,

From a correspondent of the Sweet

strange Fate of James r. Campbell
An Investigation.

a telegram was received from Hat
Creek, IN Saturday, stating that a man
named Campbell was found dead near
there and that his body a buried on
Lance creek. Furthur information
developed the fact that there were -four
bullet holes found in the remains, two
in tie breast, one of them being over the
nipple, and two holes were found In the
head, the bullets having evidently
entered the brain.
A later telegram stated that the man
had been working for LOOMS Il An
drew's and had been discharged at Fort
Laramie, hut that he followed the
party up to Hat creek. where his body
was found as stated.
Our county authorities were vIgilant
in the matter and they decided
upon an investigation, so they arranged
FOR Coroner Lee and DR.. Crook, county
physician, to go up the former to hold
an inquest, and the latter to make a
proper examination Of the body, especi-
ally as some Of the kilograms limited
that it was a case of suicide. But how
a suicide could put a second bullet into
his brain is rather difficult TO conceive.
However, the truth will probably o o
be reached. If a foul murder has
occurred and the perpetrator is cap
tured, he will be dealt with as he
deserves, which, If it Is a suicide, the
knowledge of that fact will clear the
skirts of the bountry of the tarnish of a
crime.
The following is from the Fort Col
Inns Express of Saturday last:
The following telegram was received
in Fort Collins this afternoon:
Hat Creek, Wyo., June Ga man
named Campbell, whose people live near
your place, en- route to Belle Fouche
country, in company with Lon LOOMS
and one other raan, was shot and killed
yesterday. Loomi3 and partner claim
suicide, but impossible. Evidently
cold FLOODED murder. Notify his
friends or people.
1t has beer ascertained that the third
party was Will Mabel, well-known in
Collins. The idea of murder is secuted
here, al no cause can possibly be
assigned for such a crime. Campbell's
companions are of high reputation,
especially Lon LOOMS, who is the son
of Abner LOOMS, the well-known cat
tie man. The theory of murder is pro-
badly the conception of some over
jealous official.
The suicide theory is extremely pro-
bable, as it is said that Campbell
repeatedly threatened to kill himself
before leaving for the north.
1t will be remembered that the
Campbell family had been to law about
business affairs, and that the suit was
recently decided. The deceased man
is also said to have not been exactly
right in the mind, and it is supposed
that the family trouble only aggravated
the complaint.
Campbell, LOOMS and Mabel started
north some weeks ago with r herd of
bulls for Loomis Il Andrews.
Abner Loomis leaves for Cheyenne
this afternoon, and Agent Darling will
notify the Campbell family of the sad
fate of their relative.
Later.-The following telegram has
Just been received:
HAT CREEK, Wyo., June 10.
James S,ceeney, Sheriff:
Boys are probably fifty miles north of
here. They will not be molested.
