HAD FATAL MURDER BRAND
Mark on Texas Steer Played Strange
Part in a Number Of
Tragedies.

The big white steer, which was
known to the cowmen and others in
west Texas on account of the popular
brand which it bore on its left side and
the tragedies in which it had played
a passive but important part, is dead.
The death recalls series Of the start
ling murders in this region, says an
Alpine (Tex) special to the Kansas
City Times. The steer was an outcast
for 12 years. It roamed the range at
will. Many are the lonely travellers to
whom it brought chill Of terror when
they caught sight Of the words which
we're branded in large letters across
the length Of its left side. These words
we're: Murder. 1889" Judge Van
Sickle, Of this place, is familiar with
the tragic incidents in the life of this
remarkable steer. He said:
In January, 1889. a big roundup
took place on the Leon Cipa ranch. in
Brewster county. There we're many
cowboys in this roundup, and some
we're desperate characters. A dispute
arose between H. H. Powe and Fine
Gilliland as to the ownership and
branding of a certain yearling. The
two men fought a desperate duel at
close range with six-shooters. Howe
was one-armed. Gilliland killed Howe,
mounted a horse and fed to escape the
vengeance of the cowboys. who had
taken sides with Howe. The yearling
was roped and branded Murder. 1882
and then turned loose on the range.
'Six weeks after the killing two mem
bers of a ranger squad-,John Putnam
and T. T. Cook-started on scout for
Fort Stockton. In the mountains they
came face to face with Gilliland In
the fight Cook was wounded and Gilli-
land was killed where he fought be-
side his dead horse
Putnam and Cook were surveying
the scene Of the late battle when a

white steer walked out of bunch OF
scrubby live oaks and shifted at Gill;
lands body AS the animal turned to
walk away the two rangers saw the
brand Murder, 1889, on its left side.
That steer was more than rs miles
from where it was branded and turned
loose six months before.
Some time before Gilliland's death
'Jeff' Webb, nephew of Gilliland. left
Alpine with a pet bear. The morning
following his dead body was found on
the road toward Fort Davis. Gilliland
suspected that Webb had been killed
by Sam Taylor, a desperado. One night
not long after this, Taylor was killed
in the back room of a saloon at Alpine
while playing poker by some one who
fired a load of buckshot through the
window He leaned forward over the
table, the cards still grasped in his
lifeless hand. He had just won a pot
with aces and eights, which was there
after known as a dead mans hand
In after years the outcast steer was
seen at night standing meditatively
near the window of that saloon"

STATE WITHOUT A DEBT.
Connecticut Never Had But One and
That Was During the
Civil War.

Connecticut has about as many dis
tinctive peculiarities, in relation to
Massachusetts,, as if it were located
in another part of the country and
had been settled by people Of different
origin. One of these peculiarities. says
me Springfield Republican, is its free
dom from a state debt. We in this
state have a large public debt, direct
as well as contingent. and would not
be able to recognize ourselves without
one. It is accepted here as an indi-
cation of progress. Every energetic.
wide-awake. progressive state, We are
apt to reason with ourselves, has a
debt, and usually a large and growing
one, and the same is generally to be
said Of municipalities and private bust

Still another safeguard rule for pro-
lection has been thrown around the
Indian. 1t came in an order to the
inspector that hereafter all lessees
who take an oil lease must drill upon
it at least one well within one year
from the time the lease and and bond
is approved. The order also states
that hereafter the pipe line companies
must pay the royalties that go to the
Indian direct to this Indian agent in
stead OF to the oil companies as has
beeu the custom in the past The
last order was made to hasten the pay
ments and obviate complications The
other ruling was made as it has come
to the Secretary Of the Interior that
the lessees after rtaking the leases often
do nothing to develop some Of them
while leaces on other tracts are highly
and pay big royalties
