gerald, farmer, and George Gender, a
carpenter, had difficulty yesterday even
ing. Fittsgerald struck Gender on the
forehead with weight, knocking him
down, Fitzgerald thinking he had killed
Gender, jumped on horse and made his
escape. The officers gave him a lively
chase, but failed to get him. Gender is
seriously II not fatally hurt; his skull was
found to be fractured, A small particle
OF the brain was taken out, also one or
two fragments Of the skull. Fitzgerald
had come to town with his wagon, and it
is said Gender had been following him
around for some time, trying to raise a
difficulty with him. II seems that they
had mad a difficulty previously. Too much
bad liquor was the main cause.

Further Particulars Of the Horrible Crime
In ThrocKmorton County.
Correspondence of the Gazette.
THRooKMoRToN, TEX, Sept. 29.-Our
town and the whole country was thrown
into the greatest excitement last night by
receiving information of the most villain
Gus and brutal murders perhaps ever
known to the state. The sheriff i'm
mediately summoned posse and went TO
the scene, about ten miles from town.
Upon arrival they found that Bette Urry,
girl about thirteen years old, had been
murdered and outraged Upon examlna-
ton this morning, the father of the un-
fortunate girl was found about three
quarters Of a mile from her, also murdered.
The girls throat was cut with knife
from ear to ear, and through to the neck
bone, almost severing 1t from the body.
Upon examination by the Jury of inquest
1t was found that she had been outraged
after life was extinct and while the life
blood was flowing from the poor unfortu.
nate victim. From the evidence it Is
thought that after the flend had accom-.
plished his hellish crime he mounted his
horse and attempted to fee, but met Mr..
Urry, an old decrepit man, who was
quietly tending his flock Of sheep, and
threw a rope on him and dragged him
about 100 yards and then cut his throat
with knife.
MIR. Urry has lived in this county for
several years and was always regarded
as OF quiet, inoffensive and law-abiding
man. His wife being dead this little girl
and he composed the family, and they
lived in thinly settled part OF the coun-
ty, where they held a flock of sheep.
There is no clew as to VINO are the villain
Gus perpetrators of this deed, and most
brutal murder of the father, an old Grip
pied and helpless man, and the unprotect-
ed girl, whose innocent blood cries out to
heaven for revenge. But some have strong
suspicious and officers are doing all in
their power to flnd out the truth.
r. The theory is about this at present: The
demon, though he may be called man,
went to the camp and attempted to out
rage the little girl, she being alone, and
being unable to do this he cut her throat,
making the most CHASTITY sight man ever
beheld. He then accomplished his hellish
purpose, His horse could be easily
trailed, and as he fed he came on the old
man about three quarters of a mile dis
tant. He threw his rope on him, ran his
horse, dragging him for one hundred and
sixty yards, and then cut his throat and
continued on in the same direction as in
dicated by the tracks OF the horse.
There is little doubt If the right man is
found soon but that he will climb limb.
1t Is said by all who have seen the poor
victims to be the most cruel and brutal
murder that the mind Of man could con.
ceive.
The evident intention of the fiend in
killing the old man was to prevent his
being a witness against him, as the old
gentleman saw him coming directly from
the camp where he had murdered and out.
ragged the girl.

Logan and Phr.lnlorr.

During Senator Logan's recent visit to
Kansas he offered the following curious
explanation of the Republican defeat in
1884: 'During the years 1862 and 1863
the loyal unmarried men OF the country
were In the army, and at home they were
breeding copperheads; these came OF age
and voted for Cleveland as expected.
In 1864 and 1865 the soldiers came home
and within twelve months nearly all Of
them were married. Their boys will cast
their first votes In 1883, and niue out OF
ten OF them are like their fathers,
Republicans. We are as sure to carry
the election as the sun is to rise.n The
Hannibal Journal thinks that Logan's
theory is rather hard on the furloughed
meni but there are other objections TO It
as an argument. How does the senator
account for the large and continued pre-
'ponderence OF the so.called copperhead
vote in the Southern states in spite Of the
act that the copperheads were all In the
army while the Union men were at home
raising loyal offsprings? 1T is probable
that Senator Logan Is mixing too much
physiology with his politics.
