Fishing at d orehead.
(Kinston Free Press.0

Messrs. A. Oettinger, j. c. Wagner anC
J. G. Quinerly returned this morning
from a fishing trip to Morehead. The
fishermen report remarkable luck in still
fishing up Newport channel. The party
caught over 600 trout Monday, using three
and half gallons of shrimp for bait. The
trolling for mackerel outside seems to be
very poor and after several hours yester
day without success in trolling for them
the party went back to the trout in New
port channel and to luck.

Beats Tobacco and Cotton.
durham SUM

There is undoubtedly money to be made
in the raising of figs for market, in fact
it beats raising tobacco or cotton.
o. b. Tenny, of Chapel Hill, has sold
on the Durham market in the last ten
days twenty-five bushels of figs at 81 a
bushel, thus realizing $50 from the sale
of these alone.

"BUSTING" OF BRoNcHoS.
ExempIification of Sport Given Every
Day in Chickasha.

Chckasha, /. T.. Feb. 12.-Mat Chiffon s
wagon yard on Second street was the
scene this morning of some lively broncho
busting, which furnished amusement for
an hour or so for quite crowd of on
lockers
This sport, if such it can be called. is
not new to this part of the country, but
it is always entertaining both to those
used to seeing it and to those to whom
it is something unusual.
Wild and untamed horses that have
never known what it is to be encountered
with saddle, bride or harness, are
brought into the enclosure. surrounded
with lariat throwers, who, after a pre-
liminary skirmish that scatters the spec
tators to a place of safety, finally bring
the animal TO his knees, then after
few violent spasms in an effort to free
himself from the ropes, he is finally quiet
ed down and after being haltered securely
is led away. not always subdued. how
ever, for some of them keep up the buck
ing process for a good while, but some
what more amiable than when first
brought in.
1t is a dangerous business, both for
those who are doing the breaking and
the animal also. for he cares not which
way he runs or jumps and unless a fellow
is pretty active is liable TO be run down:
the animal. too, when roped is liable to
fall and break leg.
1t is hard TO find an entirely humane
way of subjecting such animals, but
patience win get the best results.

cATTLEMEN's CONVENTION.

Oklahoma City, o. T.. Feb. 12.-The
cattlemen's convention has beeu very

POISONING
CASE TO BE
INVESTIGATED
Suspicious Circumstances OF
UIman's Death.
TOO MUCH LAUDANUM
Coroner Will Have Body Re-
turned for Examination.

Lawton. O. T., Feb. l2.-It was unsuspi-
ciously given out that ]. D. Uliman, who
died Sunday, was a victim of an overdose
Of laudanum, taken by mistake, says the
OF taking the opiate to relieve his suf-
fering, which was due to stomach trouble.
He is survived by a wife and four chill
dren. Interment took place this after
noon in Norman, Oklahoma.
There seems to be nothing the least
unusual in so simple a statement, but
there are circumstances which Coroner
Knee and probably County Attorney Cum
ningham will investigate, and possibly
have the body brought back here for a
post mortem examination. In the first
place it seems that the remains were
shipped out of town withoue the neces-
sary death certificate.
The wife of the deceased is a young wo-
man, while her husband was near 60
Moreover, he had a large estate which
will probably amount in the aggregate
to $4,000.
Sill<ett under rather strained circumstan-
ces. 1t seems he had reasons for not
caring to be uniteu with her. He was
engaged to her, it was true and num-
Der of years ago a breach of promise
suit for $4,000 brought him to the issue.
Now it becomes no newspaper to make
any statement that shall reflect upon the
character of any woman, no matter what
her past history may have been. Yet
the circumstances of this case will un-
questionably be inquired into, for in the
event that the man died without leaving
a will, his widow becomes heiress to one
third of the estate. Were this the case.
the wife of the deceased would have
some $40 600 of his property.
The question is now raised as to who
administered the poison and through
what motive. Before the matter can be
satisfactorily cleared up, it Will be nee
essary to establish that Ullman had been
in the habit of taking the opiate to re-
Iieve his suffering, and again, to prove
conclusively that the drug was taken at
his own volition.
The couple formerly lived in. Norman.
They moved to Lawton from Sterling.
Here they resided in the house next to
the Taley cottage on Avenue B. Mrs.
Ullman came with her mother to Okla
homa from Iowa.

i'm the larva state, have but three pair,
although the males are usually somewhat
smaller and fatter than the females. The
nymphs are half grown eight legged fe-
males; the larva, as stated above, are
six-legged and without sexual orifice. and
this is where the mistake comes in about
the male having but six legs. The eggs
have a rather hard leathery shell, young
specimens and males rather fiat, but the
females become plump and rounded with
increasing age. Upon examination il will
be found that the ticks are composed of
tow distinct portions united by an articu-
lation. These parts are known as the cap
itulum. or head and the body. We do not
intend to imply that all of the parts of
the head of the insect are contained in
the capitulum. The eapitulum, also
known as the head of the rostrum. is the
small anterior structure with the mouth
parts.

WAS NOT KILLED.
Report That Judge Oman Would Die
Was Incorrect.

Lawton, o. T., Feb. 12.-"He's shot
through the head. the bullet going
through his forehead and coming out al
the base of the SKULL says. the Enter
prise. Such was the report which spread
like wildfire through the city last even
ing, after udge zman, candidate for police
judge had participated in little trouble
with j. T. Davis. And so liberal is the
ina gination of man that by O'Clock the
report was amended to this statement:
''The judge is still alive. The bullet
struck his forehead and fattened out"
Alive, Well. one would rather think.
The truth is he was down town yester-
day morning almost soon as the polls
were opened Davis had bruised him con-
siderable by striking him over the head
with a revolver, but the only shot that
penetrated his flesh went through the
second finger of his left hand.
The episode took place at $40 last even
ing in front of the City Meat Market A
disputed account was the source OF the
trouble. Davis did some painting for
Judge Ozman and a settlement for the
work done was made nearly fourteen
months ago. Davis, however, was under
the impression that he was paid in full.
He alleged that Sc was still due. Judge
Ozman refused to make any further pay
ment. The dispute waxed warm and
finally reached the stage of abusive terms.
Davis contends that the Judge finally
spit in his face and that not until then
did he draw his revolver. Be this as it
may, while the two men were standing
close together, Divis whipped out his
weapon and fired three shots but one OF
which took effect. When this had been
done he dubbed his antag gonist over the
head.
Undersheriff La Fors then arrived upon
the scene and took charge of Davis,
marching the man OFF to the county Jail.
AS for Judge Ozman, he walked down
Avenue o in the direction of the post
Office He was then assisted upstairs into
the doctors office, where his wounds were
dressed.
Davis was released after having made
$500 bond for his appearance. He is
magnetic healer with Prof. to his
name and an Office above the City Meat
Market
The bone in Judge Ozmans finger was
not broken. The bullet passed around II
and lodged under the skin. The flesh had
to be lanced before the thirty-two caiibre
ball could be taken out.
Dr. Dolson, who was talking with the
Judge a few minutes before the shooting
took place, was first upon the scene after
the affair took place. He helped the judge
upstairs in DR.. Turner's office, and with
the assistance of other physicians dressed
the hurts of the injured man.
