]. n. Bullock swore out q couple Of
warrants for the arrest OF Thomas Muir
ray and his son. William. on the charge
of assault with deadly weapons with in
tent to kill, committed on Harry L. Bull
lock. his son, near Millerton Tuesday
night, an account of which appeared in
the Eagle yesterday. The warrants were
issued out of Justice Ctaddon's court at
Wellington and Sheriff Heskett was sent
after the alleged murderers Immediately.
The trouble occurred, according to Mr..
Bullock's story, as follows:
Murray and his 19-year-old son, William
wefe employed by Mr.. Bullock to help
him in harvest. Murray had a wagon
and on 1t was Bullock's hay rack. They
were stacking wheat. Some little difficulty
arose between Harry and Murray, and
the latter decided to quit work. He i'm
mediately demanded his wagon but it was
refused him until 1t could be unloaded.
Mr. Bullock, the father, told them to go
home and as soon as the wogan was I'M
loaded he would send It to them.
Murray refused to do this and being
angry at Harry, he picked up a wagon
neck-yoke and struck him on the side OF
his head. Murray's son followed him and
cut five big gashes in his neck. Harry
fell over almost helpless and by the assist
ance OF some of the other men standing
around, Mr.. Bullock succeeded after a
hard tussle in taking the knife away from
William, WHO had already sworn VEN
geance on some others.
Bullock Is in a very critical condition,
but will recover. HIS tugular vein was
barely missed in the cut. He is a young
man about % years of age. His many
friends will be sorry to hear of his mis-
fortune.
Murray and his son now live In the Strip
but used to live in Illinois township in
Sumner county.
No hearing can be had until Harry Bull
lcck RECEIVERS sufficiently to attend trial.

PARTY Of FIVE MEN
Venture TO Explore the
Greenwich Cave.
SIDES ARE SOAP STONE
Stream of Water Five Feet
Runs Under II.

party Of FIVE citizens near Greenwich
ventured to explore the cave that has
been recently discovered on the farm OF
Mr.. Henry Young, in Payne township.
This cave has been an object of much
interest up there since the Eagles account
of its discovery week ago.
A ladder was tied to a rope and let down
into the hole. when Il had touched what
was apparently hard substance the rope
was held by four men on the bank while
Mr.. A. L. Tankersly slid down to the lad
der. The walls Of the cavern are COM
posed of hard soap-stone and in this Mr..
Tankersly cut a place as a base Of rest
for the lower end Of the ladder, which,
on being let down. had sunk into quick
sand. The rope was fastened on the out
side and then four others went down. fol-
lowing Mr.. Tankersly. Only a few OF the
party were brave enough to venture into
the place, for while the hole was appar-
emily only about eighteen feet deep, they
were afraid the sides would collapse and
pen them In or mash them TO death in
stantly.
On the inside the party reports that the
cave looks very much like a big cistern
around the north side. To the south and
east, about nine or ten feet from the top,
a dark ugly opening runs of from the side
and there is no way OF finding out its di-
mansions. At the mouth Of this opening
is a lake or stream of water five feet deep.
From where the party stood they thrust a
rod into the water and struck soft sand
or mud at that depth. The opening Is
probably six to nine feet in width from
east to west and from the bottom OF the
water to the upper edge Of the tunnel 1t
is probably from nine to twelve feet. A
pole pushed back into the opening four
teen feet failed to touch anything that
would indicate the end or change in its
course. At some time within the next
two weeks Mr.. Young proposes to find out
more about the cave. The water is muddy
and settles to clearness only when allowed
to stand for several hours. There is no
growth of any kind in the cave to indi-
cate that it was ever of artificial con-
struction. Mr.. Young Is afraid Of the loss
Of a valuable part Of his farm from caving
into the place.

CAUSE OF MRS, FRIENDS SUICIDE
Was Not Domestic InfelIeIty as Re-
port stated.

In the report Of the suicide Of Mrs.
William Friend Of Kechi, in Tuesday
mornings Eagle. the statement was made
that Mrs. Friends act was directly caused
by domestic d!scord.
That statement was in error. Mrs.
Friend did commit suicide but the cause
was not domestic discord. The morning
of the day the deed was committed Mr..
Friend, in disciplining inc of the boys,
switched the boy, striking him three
slight blows of the usual force put in a
switch from the orchard. His wife, much
to Mr.. Friends surprise. said: THAT is
a nice way to treat the child.''
Mr.. Friend asked her to be quiet
That was the end of the matter and her
remark was due to her mental condition
a. the time. She had been out in the field
the Saturday before. She was about forty
years OF age, and at a critical time in
her life, and the heat of the day proba-
bly, unbalanced her and in lit of melan-
choly due alone to her physical weakness,
she took her life
Mr.. Friend. her husband Mr.. ]. E. Nor
ris, her step-father. and neighbors called
at the Eagle Office yesterday and Mr..
Friend said: 1--WE were not quarreisome.
She was not of a quarrelsome nature.
she was gentle, sweet-tempered and kind
al all times. Our life was a happy one,
unusually happy, and her loss to me is
sad enough without adding 20 my burden
that we had been discordant in our mar
ried life. We did not quarrel. She never
mentioned suicide to me and l was as
surprised as any one who knew her at
her DEATH

was one OF the gentlest, loving, forbearing
women who ever lived. Always pleasant,
always patient always kind. It was the
farthest thing from her nature 70 quarrel.
And I know that there was no domestic
discord in the family"
Friends of Mr.. Friend also said that
there was no quarreling in the family
and great injustice had been done both
the late SIrs. Friend and Mr.. Friend.
