Dorbla Tragedv

News reached Bristol yesterday OF a
double tragedy enacted Christmas even
ing At Bertha, Tenn, near the Virginia
Tennessee line, resulting in the instant
death of Roscoe Nichols aud the fatal
wounding of Silas Greene. A dispatch
last night said l00 armed men are IN
the mountains near the scene OF The
tragedy. This dispatch says the men are
following leaders from among the friends
of the dead and the wounded man, and
that a bloody conflict seems certain.
During The day both factions have been
gathering arms and ammunition.
On the border line of the two States
there is a distilery operated by William
Greene, where a miscellaneous element
from both States assembled. Colonel
Greene. the proprietor, having been
placed in Jail in Sneedsville for violating
The revenus laws, had left his SOD, Sllas
tireene, in charge of the place. On
MONDAY evening a band of men came to
the distilIery, shooting and swearing
that they were hunting blood. One en-
tered the home of Greene and COM
menced swearing. The SOD, Silas
Greene, requested him TO refrain from
using such epilhets in his home.
As soon as Greene made this request
Roscoe Nichols, it is alleged, drew his
revolver and, with an oath, fired upon
Greene, wounding him in the abdomen
Greene drew his revolver and sho'
Nichols through the heart. ln the ex
citement Greene escaped to a neighbor
ing house, where he now lies in a dying
condition.

BIG GAME IN ARIZONA.

Despite the destructive activity of
mankind, large game appears to be
about as plentiful as ever in Arizona.
Deer and antelope alone have decreas-
ed, and 1t Is hoped, under protection
of late laws, that they will henceforth
be found in gradually increasing num-
Der. A decade ago deer were plentiful
in the mountains around Phoenix and
antelope ran in great bands in the
Grand Canon region.
Though $40 scalp is paid for their
slaughter mountain lions and bear are
numerous in the Mazatzal. Mogollon
and Sierra Ancha mountains. as well
as in the mountains of southeastern
Arizona. The lions can be hunted only
with the aid of well-trained dogs, for
they flee from man and hide themselves
readily, despite their size. They have
been killed as near Phoenix as Mo-
Dowell, showing themselves, as a rule,
in their quest for colt meat, for which
they have a special fondness. A nine
foot lion was killed recently north of
Phoenix by James Linville.
Bear of great size are common all
along the rim of the Mogollon, from
the upper Verde southeast to the New
Mexican line. An S00-pound black
bear, the largest of the species ever
locally known, was killed few days
ago in the Rincon mountains, near
Tuscon, by Under Sheriff Henry My
ers. The bear had been wounded and
was charging Myers when struck by
the fatal bullet. Black bear are COM
mon near Payson, under the rim. They
are mainly of the small variety, harm
less to man, and best hunted with dogs
and horses, for they run at surprising
speed through the pine woods of the
locality. The brown and cinnamon
bear are little different from the true
grizzly and are fully as ferocious. Most
sportsmen pass them by If the weapon
at hand be lighter than a 1903 rife, pre-
ferably carrying an exploding bullet. A
few years ago a cinnamon weighing
nearly a ton was killed in the Sierra
Anchas by Phil Askins, a celebrated
Arizona hunter. Askins admitted that
the bear would have been too much for
him had it not been for his pack of
dogs. Askins usually made about $4,000
a year on lion and bear bounties.--Los

VALLEJO, Dec. 9.-The torpedo boat
destroyer Perry, Lieutenant +. N.
Freeman commanding, left Mare Is
land today for san Francisco bay.
where she will join her sister ship.
the Paul Jones, and the two torpedo
boat destroyers will proceed at once
to san Diego. there to await the ar
rival of the flagship Chicago, now on
a short cruise to Honolulu. Both yes
sells belong to the Pacific squadron.
and the Perry has been undergoing re-
pairs at Mare Island for several weeks
past. Rear Admiral Goodrich recon-
mended that they accompany his flag
ship TO Honolulu, but the cruise was
disapproved of by the Navy Depart
mcnt as being unnecessarily long.
The naval transport Lawton, Lieut.
enant Commander Charles F.. Pond
commanding, is also to leave for the
Philippines on or about the 10th in
slant. She will carry a large amount
of stores for the naval stations at Ho-
nolulu and Cavite. as well as supplies
for the various ships of the Asiatic
squadron. Large drafts of men are
being sent to her steadily for trans
portation to the Orient, where they
will be transferred to the ships on
duty there, relieving the men whose
three years service in the Far East
has expired. These will be brought
home on the return trip of the Law
ton. First-class passenger room on
the transport is very limited, and 1t is
thought that several of the marine Of
ficers who were ordered to Mare Is
land to take passage for the Orient
will be unable to obtain accommoda-
tons and viii be forced to sail on the
next transport leaving San Francisco.
Among the Lawton's cargo are in
cluded number of Christmas boxes
being sent out to men on the Asiatic
station, particularly at Cavite and the
ships I'm oriental waters. Christmas
boxes for men at Guam will be sent
