KILLING TROUT WITH POWDER,

Captain Eide was hugely disguised
yesterday. In fishing along the river,
from the head of the Water Company's
ditch to the mouth of Deer creek,
he saw fully $50 trout of various
lengths floating On the water, and ex
hibiting unmistakable evidence Of
the use of giant powder.
This crime seems to be INDUCED
in to as great an extent as ever, yet
no arrests Of parties guilty of it are
ever heard of. If not put stop to,
the practise will cause incalculable
injury to this region, and deprive it
Of one of its proudest boasts.

Special Telegram to the statesman.

QUANAH, Tex, May %, "A shooting affair
occurred here last night, which resulted in
the death of Tom Fergus on, cowboy,
who was in the employ of j. P. Wills On,
who has a ranch in this vicinity. 1t
seems that feud existed between Fergu-
son and Sterling Price, of Captain Nc =
Murrry's ranger company, which, 1t
seems, had the usual woman at the bot
tom. Yesterday both parties arrived in
town-Ferguson from the roundup and
Price from Vernon, where h. had
been on duty for few days.
About 10 O'Clock last night Price
was informed that his official presence was
needed at the fancy house of Carrie VII
son, in the suburbs of the town. Fergu-
son was there when Price arrived, aud APP
parently unarmed. But when he saw the
latter euter, he remarked that he was
going to the ranch and left the house, but
instead of starting for the ranch, as he
had stated, he brought his horse to the
door, dropped thesreins over hishead and,
taking his Winchester from the scab
bard on the saddle, re-entered the
house and started with it in readiness.
When Price saw his actions his suspicious
were aroused and, entering another part
of the house; he found Green, an ex-
ranger, and present deputy sheriff of Don
ley county, and told him what he had seen.
Both men then started for the barroom
where Ferguson was. Green entered a
lit in advance of Price, and walking up
TO Ferguson, remarked:
"What are you doing with that gun,
Tom?"
Ferguson made no reply, but, throwing
the gun to his shoulder, fired at Price.
Green, however, knocked the gun aside,
thus, perhaps, preventing the shot from
taking effect upon the ranger. Price and
Green both drew their pistols and fired
simultaneously at Fergu.oa, O1e of the
balls passing through his heart and the
other entering his left arm. BE staggered
back AID fell out the open door, dying
instantly. Price and Green surrender
themselves to the citizens, there being nj
other officers in town, and are now unde
guard awaiting an examining trial.

The Strickland Tragedy.

PALESTINE, May 29.-Before Justice
Watts this morning John Moore, charged
with the murder of Strickland at Iona
last Thursday, waved examination and
his bail bond was fixed at $4,000. The
only evidence introduced was the identi-
ication on the part of defense of the
letter written and sent by Strickland to
Mrs. Moore, the contents Of which caused
the tragedy. Davis Moore, Gus Moore,
Still Moore and James H. Moore,
half brothers of John Moore, went
with him to find where Strickland was at
work, and we're present at the killing.
They we're arrested this morning on the
affidavit of Strickland's brother, which
charges them as accessories to the killing.
The sttong point, as alleged by the state,
is that after coming on the ground some
time was spent in parleying, that Strick-
land ran and received the contents of
Mo3re's gun in the back. The Moores
are poor, but industrious farmers, and
appear to have the sympathy of tho citi-
