Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
Saturday night in Temple. 1t will be
remembered by the readers of THE GA
ZETTE that nine months ago Bob Hawkes.,
deputy city marshal of this city, was
shot down in cold blood by one Pick
Wiseman, a notorious gambler, who
concealed himself behind a screen in the
Keystone restaurant, and, resting his
shotgun on the doorsill, fired, the whole
charge taking effect in Hawkes. head.
causing instant death. WisemRu was
arrested and gwen q preliminary trial
aud In default of bail was placed in the
county Jail at Bolton TO await the action
of the grand jury at the March term of
the district court. His case was con-
tinued OH account of the non-appear-
ance of state witnesses. He was allowed
to give bond, and once more he

free man. Shortly after returning
here he, beng under the influence of
liquor, attempted the life of Charlie
Miller, a fellow sport, but missed his
mark. 1t took the combined force OF
and others TO capture him, as he was
acting monarch of the ball after firing
the shot, but he was chained disarmed
and placed in the city lookup where he
renamed until the next day. His bonds
man, hearing of this second scrape, i'm
mediately surrendered him to the au-
hort les and, unable to give bond, he
was placed behind the bars in Bolton.
He was tried at the last term of the dis
trict court and verdict of not guilty
rendered. Feeling against Wiseman
ran very high in Temple, and upon
every corner the all-absorbing topic of
conversation was the result of his trial.
1t was the universal thought If Wiseman
returned to Temple there would be
MORE BLOOD SHED
and he would be shot down like dog
without warning. After his discharge
from jail he returned TO Temple and kept
in close quarters at the house OF Cora Nc
Mahan, woman of Ill repute, never
once making his appearance upon the
streets until last evening. He and Cora
McMahau, procuring buggy, started
for drive. At an enrly hour this
morning one of the most horrible specta-
Giles ever presented to the eyes was seen
about one and one-fourth miles from
Temple, when it was discovered both
Wisemau and Cora McMahan were stone
dead in the buggy and the horse hitched
to fencepost near Mr.. Adair's place.
From the tracks of the buggy it is evil
dent they were on their way to Bolton,
and were both shot down with q Win
chester rife and shotgun by unknown
parties from the right and left of the
road. Then turning the buggy half way
around turned back and hitched the
horse to fence post, where they we're
found this morning by John Culpepper
of Bolton who was on his way to Temple.
THE CoRPsEs
were brought to Temple and an inquest
held, stating both parties met their death

There is scarcely physician who has
been practising any great length of time
but has several fayorite prescriptions,
one of which is generally given for the
subduring of pains throughout the body,
such as rheumatism, headache, back
ache, neuralgia, pleurisy, contracted
muscles. pain in the stomach, ear-ache,
ETC.. etc.
1t is one of these prescriptions from
which is compounded the great Southern
liniment known as Mansfield Mag 10
Arnica Liniment. A noted physician
used this liuiment for long time in his
private practice before the Mansfield
Drug Company, of Memphis, Tenn. I,
began its manufacture. 1t became
famous and many of the physicians,
begged from him his magic cure for all
pain, and to-day it is generally the first
thing Southern physician orders to
effect a speedy cure.
1t has always been found equal to every
emergency in giving prompt relief TO the
afflicted. 1t is a peneti ating fluid which
passes through all the tissues, muscles
and TO the bone itself. Its action upon
the absorbants is not to sew them up as
other liniments do, but to open them
and increase the circulation. Its opera
ton is based upon scientific principles
and Is therefore applicable to the care or
natural restoration of all organic de-
engagements from an improper or irreGu-
lar circulation of the vital fluids, whether
in man or beast.

the weapons used were shotgun aud rifle.
Pick Wisemsn was shot with Winches-
ter 10 the head and left side, also in the

Cora McMahan was shot through the

the whole top of her head away; also

Temple now breathes easier since two of
the most dangerous characters in the
country have been removed. The people

victims are this day avenged.
ACCIDENTALLY SHOT HIS BROTHER.
Will Ward, living on the outskirts of
town, accidentally shot his brother, Ben
Ward, with u shotgun, indicting pain
tul, but not dangerous wound. The par
ticulars are as follows: Both the Ward
boys had been losing considerable corn
from their crib, aud last night Ben Ward
undertook to watch and catch, If posi-
BILE, the party or parties. He remained
in hiding until IL o. CLOCK, when he gave
up for the night. He was in the act OF
returning to the house when he was
called upon to stop. Not paying any
attention to this summons his brother
Will, not recognizing him, raised shot
gun and fired, with the above results.
SPORT WINGED.
Last night about 10 o CLOCK the report
of two pistol shots was heard and large
crowd gathered in front OF the Otto
saloon to learn the cause. 1t appears
that John Morris, q gambler who had
been drinking freely all day, had used
some very hard language towards w.
Weldon, and at night went to the
latter's gambling hail just above the
Otto saloon opposite the Exchange hotel,
and renewed his attacks upon Weld n, at
the same time drawing pistol, but be-
fore he was able to use it Weldon pulled
his istol and fired shot at Morris,
which took effect in his right arm.

CATTLE IN THE W EST.

The Range is Good, the Herds Fat, but No
Shipping or Selling Going On.
Mr.. A. s. Nicholson has just returned
from a ten days trip through the western
part of the state, having, while gone,
visited Taylor, Nolan, Mitchell Howard
Borden and other counties, where large
cattle interests are located. When in
terrogated by a GAZETTE reporter yester-
day, he said that the entire country
visited by him was in good shape-much
better than the section in this part of the
state. This, he said, was attributable
to the good rains which had fallen in the
West.

The Welsh Strike.


Special to the Gazette.
LONDON, Aug. 1l.-Each succeeding
day since the beginning of the great
Welsh strike has witnessed an increase
in the number of men involved and
growth of prospects that the strikers will
finally win their fight. Employees of the
Welsh railways, who are not involved i'll
the strike, have subscribed shilling
week each from their wages to the sup
port of the men who are out. The
strikers are certainly not lacking for
sympathy, as IL evidenced by the fact
that 800, 900 GOLFERS marched to Cardiff
with bands of music, banners and tlags
to-day to attest their support of the
strikers cause. 1t is estim ated that the
strikers have already lost $40 900 in
wages and the masters have suffered still
more severely through the stoppage of
their business.

deserters, because of the tyranny of
nom commissioned officers and from
other causes, are increasing. Police are
securing the country for deserters, and
several of them have already been ap-
pretended and returned to their regi-
ments and confined.
