WARMwOOD SPRINGS, HARDEMAN
COUNTY, March 2l.-[Correspondence.l-
A party of cattlemen just returned from
trip into Greer county, report they
found on Lebas creek, 25 miles nor h
west from here, the bodies oftwo men rid
died with bullets. 1t appears that they
had encamped for the night and had
been attacked while asleep. A lot of
camping utensils scattered around in q
heller SHELTER manner and dead pack
pony, with five or six wounds, indicated
that they had not given up life without
a struggle of the most desperate nature
The discoveries searched the remains
and found on the person of one letter
addressed to Frank Daily, postmarked
Tazewell, Virginia, and signed S. II.
Williams. On the oiherswas a memo
randum book, containing entries sup.
porting the theory that the unfortunate
men were prospectors. On February %
the note is made: "Leave Sherman this
afternoon to try our luck in the Pan
handle. Have purchased a complete
outfit, and are well heeled for rOughing
it," On the fly leaf Of the book Is the
Signature Of j. G.. Easton. No money or
valuables were found in tho pockets OF
either. Both were young men OF u robust
type and evidently Of gentle extraction,
as their clothing was Of plain but eN-
cellent material, ana their hands seemed
to be comparative strangers to toll A
double grave was dug, and side by side
they were consigned TO mother earth by
the rough, but big.hearted men, who
had 10y chance been enabled to give
them sculpture, Who thor assassins
were is still and probably win remain
wrapped in mystery, as doubtless they
are by this time secure in the Businesses
OF the territory. A marGudiug band of
Cheyennes may havo stolen from their
reservation, but this theory is hardly
plausible, as ne Indian depredations
have been reported in that section, and
IL is more likely that Panhandle rustlors
who disgrace the huckskins of tho true
cowboy, swOoped down upon the un-
suspecting adventurous and committed
the deed for the sake OF plumber as
their boots and hats were missing, and
there was evidence that strange hands
had been thrust into their rockets,

d. Noble, a largo cattleman Of this
county, with his partner left here with
bunch of cattle for the lower county
about three weeks ago. News was re-
ceived by his family to-day that about
one week ago Noble, who was then
camped near Pona Station, ON The
Laredo d Corpus Christi road, started
his partner 10 tho neGrss. store for pro-
visions. They had paid of and dis
charged two MeXicsns the evening be-
fore, Noble had large sumio money
with him. When his partner returned
ho was nowhere 10 boz seen and search
was made, which resulted in
finding his boiy yesterday. He
had been shot twice from behind, aud
when he fell from his horse,he had been
dragged some distance into the chap
arel and partially covered with leaves,
His money he had secreted under II
Kettle near the camp and had only a
small sum on his person when slain 4.
The body had laid partially exposed for
some days, and the Mexican vultures,
with which the country abounds, had
been hard at work. The eyes were
gone, more than half the scalp eaten oil,
and the hands, face and entrails almost
entirely eaten away. He was recog-
nized by his spurs, quirt and NEE
schaum pipe, which was very large
and fine one. The supposed muTderers
are young Mexicans named Antonio
NalasqueZ and Senoria Helon. They
are supposed to be safe In Mexico,
though pursuit was institated two days
after Mobiles disappearance. There is
intense excitement here where the dead
man was well known and esteemed.

between Americans, and Mexicans and
