ROW IN A CHURCH..
Bonham News:
Saturday night there was festival
at the colored MethouIs. church in
East End, During the entertainment
Oliver Stull and Tom Cobb had dis
agreement and retired from the house
to settle it. When on the outside,
Lee Anderson, another negro, made
some remark at which Tom Cobb took
offense, and he turned his attention
to Lee: all parties left the church,
some fifty or hundred yards, Tom all
the time cursing Lee. Turning
around they went back to the
church, Tom shaking his fist in Lees
face. Lee told him to let him alone,
or he would hurt him. This Tom re-
fused to do, when Lee stabbed him in
the abdomen, infiicting a wound
which cansed Toms death Wednes-
day night. Oliver Stull, according to
report, attempted to interfere, when
Sam Wallace jerked a picket from the
fence and came toward him. Oliver
then shot Sam twice, inflicting slight
wound in his neck and another in the
side, neither of them serious.

southern Texas cattle men drove vast
herds across their grazing lands, and

for the purpose of settling upon d

cattle owners to recover the damage
done to their herds. which they esti~
mate at fully 100000. Their cattle
contracted the Texas fever by reason
of the diving of the infected cattle
through this territory, and the
proposed action grows out of
the interference with the government
which protected them in that act, and
