Fatal Fail of a Mexican Actress
Sensational Divorce Suit
at Waco.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.

BoNHAM, March 16.-The district court
room was filled with a crowd of curious
spectators to-day to hear the evidence in
sensational murder trial. The case is
that of Jim Scarlett, charged with killing
Andy Lacefeld in 1885. At the last term
of the district court Scarlet was sentenced
to hang, but owing to technicality in
rendering the verdict, he succeeded
in gaining a new hearing.
The murder with which Scarlet
is charged was committed on Red river,
in the northern part of the county. Scar
lett and Lacefield had been engaged in
running a whisky boat on the river. They
had difficulty, but were separated. Later
Scarlett came upon Lacefeld sitting on
the river bank. Creeping up close to
his victim he shot him in the head. After
shooting Lacefeld, to make sure that he
he was dead, Scarlett pounded him over
the head with his pistol and threw his
body into the river. Scarlett
fed, and was not apprehended until
six months ago. The strangest part
of the story came out several weeks ago,
soon after Scarlett's first trial. A man
was found in the southern part of the
county, who claimed to be Andy Lacefield,
the same person whom Scarlet WAS
charged with killing. His story is, that
when thrown into the river he revived and
succeeded in getting out of the water, and,
more dead than alive, made his way to the
house of a friend, where, after many
weeks of lingering weakness, he recovered
and left the country. He had heard of
the trial of Scarlet. When asked why he
did not appear and stop the proceed
ings be stated that he did not
care if Scarlet was hung. Lacefeld to-
day testified substantially to the above
story, and was identified by several wit
nesses as the man whom Scarlet is
charged with numbering. He has several
scars on his head, which answer the
description of the wounds made by Scar
lett. Legions of witnesses are in attend
ance on court, and the case will likely
occupy several days.

Eating interest the details of the catastrO-
ply, and are deeply impressed by the
sacrifice of human lives involved. Yet
thousands of men and women are falling
victims every year to that terrible disease,
consumption (scrofula of the lungs), and
they and their friends are satisfied to be-
lieve the malady incurable. Now, there
could be no greater mistake. No earthly
power, of course, can restore lung that
is entirely wasted, but DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery will rapidly and surely
arrest the ravages of consumption, if
taken in time. Do not, therefore, de-
spsir, until you have tried this wonderful
remedy.

LoNGvIEw, March 16.-At Howe's circus
to-day the favorite Mexican actress,
SenorIta Lipz, fell from the top of the
tent to the ring, distance of over thirty
five feet, striking on her feet and back,
and sustaining what are now considered
fatal injuries. The accident was due to
the splitting of wheel and breaking of
the rotten gear of strap which she held
by her teeth, Gliding down an incline wire
from the center pole to the dressing room.
The act is known as the "slide for life,"
but which might now be called "the fall of
DEATH" When the senorita fell she lay
like dead and held the strap in her mouth,
and was carried limp and apparently
lifeless to the dressing room, but she was
sooD regained to consciousness, and the
audience were assured she was only Sc
verely shocked, but not dangerously hurt.
The show continued as though she was
not hurt, but investigation proved the
seriousness of her wounds. Though no
bones we're broken as yet known, she is
fearfully iammed up and suffering intense
pain.

Evans was just of age. OF late he had

thought he was drinking and had at
tempted to get on the train while
passing through the city and had
fallen between the cars. He was dragged
forty yards and had one leg cut off and
the other crushed. Conductor Swartz and
Engineer Walker knew nothing of the
tradedy, though it happened within 100
yards of the depot. They passed on
through the city without discovering what
had been done. People living in the
neighborhood heard his moaning, but
thought it was some drunken man and
paid no attention to 1t. About o'clock
he was found half unconscious and all
bloody and mangled.
