One day last week when Tower Bros,
were driving three thousand head Of
cattle from the south, all went well un-
Oh they reached the Sunk Wells, twelve
miles south Of Lakin. The day was hot
AMI the cattle had not had water dur
ing the day. Coming up to the sunk
Well, they smelIed the water and dived
into the well, which was in the shape
of wash basin, and is thirty feet deer
before reaching water. The cattle rush
eel in upon each other and all the cow
boys could do 10 save the cattle was in
vain. They trampled one another. and
before they could be turned out of the
way, seventy-tiye were drowned. This
should lie warning to all stockmen Ia
look out for the Sunk Wells when driv-
ing cattle to the Lakin yards.-Garden

DARING pEsPERApoEs.

Last Saturday morning, at o'clock
an attempt was made 10 rob the Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe cannon ball
train at Coolidge, a station near the Col
Orado line. The engineer of the train
was shot and killed and the fireman
dangerously wounded. The train had
stopped at the station as usual, and was
ready TO start, when three men attemp-
ted the robbery. Two got ON the engine
and ordered the engineer, John Hilton,
~ start the train, but he refused, when
he Was instantly shot through the heart
and fell dead. The fireman attempted
10 jump from the engine and was shot
through the neck. While this was go
ing ON, another robber had climbed into
the express car and fired2a shot mt the
messenger, 5. 5. Peterson, who was
lying ON an imprOvised bed made on top
of the safes. Peterson remained mo-
tionless until the robber partially turn

sTOcKMEN AT CALDWELL.

CALDWELL, Ms, Oct. =
Just at this time, Caldwell is filed to
overlooking with cattlemen; boarding
houses and hotels are taxed TO their full
capacity to accommodate their guests.
The Leland hotel is feeding and sleep
ing, and has been for ten days, no less
than than 200 persons, and it is greatly
due the good management of the pro-
prietOr, Sam. G. WOodson, that the
crowds are satisfactorily cared for.
Caldwell is improving nicely and the
new brick hotel will soon be ready for
occupancy, and will fill a long felt want
though the Leland will still be the head
quarters for cattlemen.
The Board of Arbitration and Direc-
tors of the Cherokee Strip Live Stock
Association are i'm session and will be
for several days. A number of cases

are decided by the Board of Arbitration
are appealed to the Directors, and in
nearly every case, after final judgment.

The first semi-annual payment of the

quah by the treasurer of the associa-
ton. 1t was raised by an assessment
of the different ranges at 80 much per
acre and was collected in half a day.
which shows something of the enter
prise of the members of the association.
The ranges have been generally sur
veyed and G. ii. Burgess, who surveyed
the western district will at once print a
map of the Territory, showing the diff
erent ranges, number of acres, :bounda-
~ lines, course of streams, location of
camps and such other general informa-
ton as will lie of almost incalculable
value to owners of range on the Chero-
kee Strip.
The rental per acre for the first year
will be 3t cents per acre, and q per acre
per annum for the following four years.

The proposition that the man who

The news was telegraphed up the road
and a posse Of men were sent out from
Dodge City on a special train, and soon
arrived at the scene of the attempted
robbery and proceeded to scour the
country for the desperadoes.
At last accounts, several persons had
been arrested on suspicion, with chan
ces that the right men were found. One
man, named Dean, who claims to have
come from Colorado, was seen at Cool
idge the night of the attempted robbery
as were others Of the parties arrested.
\ dispatch from Dodge City, dated
the lst, to the Kansas City Times, has
some interesting points in connection
with this affair. 1t says:
Coolidge is one of the hardest towns
in the west and there is almost a total
absence of law there, and when a
few cowboys get into town and fill
themselves with ''sheep-dip," as the
vile whiskey sold there is called, they
usually run the town to suit themselves.
4 common form of amusement is for a
es into the saloons, iand, riding to the
bar, drink while mounted, probably va
rying the amusement by shooting out
lamps or down through the floor, or up
through the ceiling. Not bar room
floor or ceiling in town has escaped such
fusilades until most of them are COM
pletely honeycombed.
The cowboys are again at it i'm Cool
idge, drunken party having taken par
tial possession of the place. They are
riding up and down the streets and into
the saloons, keeping up continual fu-
SHADE with their siX-shOOters, shooting
into cars, buildings, etc. 1t is under
stood that Singer and Bridges had left
when the affair started and were on
their way to this city with another pris-
Oner, but upon orders from Borst, SUI
perintendent of the division, they re-
turned and will shortly reach there. BY
telegram from Deputy Sheriff Singer, it
is learned that he has made another ar
rest this evening, but it is supposed to
he the leader Of the gang of this after
noon and has no bearing on the attemp-
ted train robbery, but he has followed
up the story of Dean and has found that
he was not where he claims the night
of the shooting Of Hilton.
Dean claimed that he spent that night
nj a certain farm house several miles
from Coolidge, but it is learned that he
did not reach there until towards morn
ing, allowing him ample time to reach
there after the shooting. This makes
it almost certain that Dean isone of the
men, if not the leader, which is very
probable. lie is a man whose looks
would denote desperate character. He
is about five feet ten or eleven inches
high, well built, high complicated, with
clear steady eye, cool, deliberate and
self possessed. He is just the man to
execute, and if he was the leader of the
party it is likely not his fault that the
plans Of the gang miscarried. He is a
cOw-puncher who has been working in
the Indian Territory, and his reputation
is very unsavory, but he is well connec-
ted in New Mexico. lie shutters badly
and it is now thought that as Fable, the
fireman, has said the man who ordered
Hilton To pull out stammered, and that
this was the first clue, if this is true,
and the officers while affirming, do not
deny il.
