in Hastings. Some time ago the gIos-
sips of Hastings were commenting on
the rumor that the young lady had
eloped with the colored coachman, both
having left the city. Miss Yocum osten.
ribly had been teaching music. 1.-The
same report was renewed and circulated
with more energy than at first but a few
weeks since. 1t was said to have origi-
mated with young Vanfeet, who was a
former sweetheart of Miss Alice. The
prominence of Captain Yocum's family
made the rumors the more sensational.
Having reached the ears of the captain
he traced the source of the rumor to
Vanfieet, and he shot and killed him at
sight. 1t is stated by Mr.. Heffner that
he had some evidence that the two had
been in Denver together and that they
were secretly married here. Although
he had examined the records he finds
that no marriage license were issued to
them. Still he believes that there is
some ground for the reports. Mr.. Heff-
ner says they will endeavor to show that
the allegations made by the murdered
man were true.

THE SMITH OUTRAGE,
Statement of Mrs. Smith, Giving Detail,
of the nIurderous Assault

VI tht <hbshuits
SHERMAN, Tex, March 9.-Mrs Betti,
Smith, one of the victims of Sam Mas
sey, supposed to be in Jail in Dallas, re
covered sufficiently to make statement
which was in substance that the negro
brought Smith home in drunken con
dition and hung around the house, ask,
ing for some coffee which was given
him. His actions were of nature tc
arouse the fears of Mrs. Smith. He per
sisted in advising her to get Mr.. Smith
to sleep. She finally threatened that ont
of Mr. Smiths brothers would be along
soon and if he hadn't left before he got
there, that he, Massey, would be throw
out.
He grappled Mrs Smith and was try
ing to choke her down to the floor, wher
she screamed for her two little boys
who had just gone to bed, to get up and
wake their father, who had fallen into &
drunken sleep by this time. In the
her assailant, who, in addition to bruig
ing her otherwise in the scuffie, bit one
of her fingers very badly. Smith, Il
whom the little boys had gone, started
mp in a half-dazed way, and as he did sc
the negro caught sight of him, and pick
ing up billet of wood felled him
into insensibility and seeing the two
little boys awake, knocked them down
IN succession.
During his attention to Mrs. Smith h,
dealt her powerful blow and as she
tried to raise he struck her again and
again, inficting terrible wounds upon
her face, head, shoulders and throat
After this all was blank to the poor
woman.
Both Smith and his wife are deaf and
it is not impossible that they will re-
main permanently so in case they finally
recover their physical strength.
