CARELESS WITH HIS GUN.
The Result Was Fatal to Pasadena
Sportsman.

The Result Was Fatal to Pasadena
Sportsman.
Coroner Gates was called to Whining
ton yesterday morning to hold an in
quest over the remains Of man who
had accidentally shot himself while out
hunting, and returned last evening.
The case was an exec edlngly tragic one.
Three young men from Pasadena went
down to Wilmington Sunday night and
yesterday morning took boat and pro-
ceeded to Machado lake to shoot ducks.
They were in the best of spirits and an
ticipated fine day of sport. When
they reached the lake, which ia only an
arm OF the bay running far inland, they
proceeded to land at q certain place.
Two of the hunters got out OF the skif
and the third started to follow them.
He had his shot gun by the barr ell and
in stepping to land the hammer
was caught on the side OF the boat
in some manner and one barrel
was discharged. The whole charge en-
tered his right side, slightly in front,
ranging upward and backward. He
staggered for moment, fell, and then
by sheer will power crawled little way
up tho bank before losing consciousness,
crying out: 81 have killedGmyself." He
lived about five minutes after being
shot.
Coroner Gates went out to the spot
where the body lay, and held an in
quest there, the jury returning verdict
OF accidental killing.
1t developed on the inquest that the
mans companions did not know his
name. They said he had been in Pasa-
dena about two moths, and was labor
ing man. They also knew that he was
unmarried, and bevond that knew moth
ing about him. He was Dane, and
about % years old. The remains were
shipped to Pasadena.

HEkRiYA MURDER
A Strange Story of Attempted
ASSASSINATION.

On April so George A. Williams, OF
Kansas City, started for Oklahoma.
He had a wagon and seven head OF
good horses. He hired young man
of his acquaintance, Bert Fisher, to
go with him. Last Thursday night
the two men camped about three miles
south nf town. At daylight Friday
morning Williams rode into lola driv.
ing Fisher, tied ON another horse. be-
fore him and turned him over to the
sheriff, charging him with attempted
murder. Williams then went to DIR.
Fulton and had a 44-calibre bullet Ia
ken out of the back of his neck. The
story he tells is substantially this:
ave went to bed ON Thursday night
in the wagon box as usual. About
one o'clock in the morning l was
awakened by blow on the head. My
first thought was that somebody pass
ing by had thrown rock into the
wagon. 1 grabbed in the tool box for
my revolver but did not find it. Just
then man climbed up in the front OF
the wagon and fired at me. He miss
ed and I jumped forward and pushed
him off. In moment he was at the
side of the wagon and fired again,
but 1 had snatched the blankets
around me and they must have STOP
ped the bullet. This time / recog-
nized that the man was Fisher. After
firing the third shot he started to run.
/ jumped out and started after him.
Seeing that he was Outrunning me /
stopped and returned toward the wag-
on. He also stopped and followed me
back. He tried to shoot again but the
revolver caught and did not go off.
/ then picked up the neck yoke and
told him to lay down the revolver and
let us talk this thing over. After
some little talk he threw down the
gun and / threw down the neck yoke.
We then talked for quite awhile, but
i noticed he was edging toward the
revolver again, so l made rush,
pushed him over it and got it myself.
/ forced him to let me tie his hands,
then l dressed and brought him to
town.
Williams did not know he had been
shot until he got to the jail, whSn Har-
mon Bobart found there was hole in
his head ara that that the hair was singed
all aennrd it. Evidently the gun had
been placed close against his head and
fired. 1t seems miracle that he was
not instantly killed, and he would
have been if the shot had struck an
inch higher or lower. AS it was it
struck the point of the skull and
glanced down into the muscles of the
neck where DIR. Fulton found and ex-
tracted il. Williams is a very mus
cular man, and the wound has thus
far given him but little trouble.
The preliminary examination of
Fisher was held on Saturday and
Williams told substantially the above
story. Fisher did not offer any tssti-
mony and was bound over for trial at
the approaching term of court. Fisher
will say nothing except that he acted
in self-defense. 1t is the general opin-
ion, however, that Williams tells the
truth and that it was deliberate and
premeditated attempt at murder, the
motive being to get possession of the
horses and outfit, all of which be-
longed to Williams.
1t is a singular story and the out
come of the trial will be awaited with
much interest.
