faro game has been hourishing near the
depot and Tom Ward, whom every boomer
knows, lost his all, the boys say, sixty-hve
cents. The gamblers took fright at the
soldiers, same as the boomers, and this
morning their tent was folded up and they
had flown.
FIVE wagons, loaded with provisions and
supplies for the Cheyennes and Arapahoas,
are standing at the agency, and the In
dams have hitched up to make the trip
back to Reno. One wagon has stuck in
the mnd, but instead of getting mad and
giving the atmosphere blush cast, they
laugh and appear to heartily enjoy the
situation.
A freighters' train has just come in
from Reno. There are two outfits-two
wagons to an outft-each drawn by SIX
horses. They bring the news that the SOL

are seeking their hiding places.

BELIEVED 10 HAVE BEEN Murdered

NASHVILLE, March 16.-A special to the
American from Huntingdon, Tenn, saws:
1t is now regarded as certainty that the
Flowers family at Hollow Rock, an ac-
count of whose cremation was given last
night, were foully murdered. Mr. Duncan,
who first arrived on the scene of the con-
hagration. found not only the door to the
side room open, but the other doors also.
When the roof had begun TO fall in the
inner part of the house was illuminated,
the bodies OF the victims could be seen
burning. Mr.. Flowers, as stated, was in
a side room where there was no bed. He
lay upon box with his feet on d side
board.
Today the coronors jury made a partial
examination and found a round hole in
Mr.. Flowers forehead, as if made with a
pointed instrument or pistol of large
calibre. The hair on the head was pre-
served above the hole as if by clotted
blood. The neighbors are inclined to
think that some of the moonshiner clan
with whom Mr.. Flowers has been med
ding of late years put an end to him and
his family to prevent being reported to the
authorities
