arrived last June from FIT. Worth and
has been employed as cook at various
places The shooting occurred at the
rear door of the J. A. Glenn boarding
house on North Main, opposite the
court house where Houston has been
employed.

kies has been brewing for several
days According to the statement of
Houston il started last Thursday
night. when Mrs. Johnson, wife of
the deceased, accompanied him, (Hou-
ston) and Mrs. Albert Hubert. Hous-
tons landlady, to church. Houston
says that at that time Johnson pulled
a revolver on him and threatened his
life. Last Saturday Johnson was ar
rested for this disturbance and was
fined by Justice Bailey, the fine and
cost amounting to about eleven dol
lars. Monday a warrant was issued
for his arrest charging him with carry
ing a gun, upon the statement of
Houston He was arrested on this
warrant yesterday and gave bond for
his appearance today.
Last night Johnson went to the
Glenn boarding house. where Houston
was employed and called him to the
back door He asked to talk with
Houston and Houston said he was
busy. Johnson said, well l can talk
to you here. Why did you have me ar
rested for carrying gun, when
haven't had a gun at all?" Then ac-
cording to Houston's statement, John
son told him not to leave the Glenn
house that night or he would kill him.
Their wrangle continued until Mr.. and
Mrs. Clem came out to see what was
the trouble Houston became excited
and started to go after an officer. He
returned from the front part of the
house and while Mr.. and Mrs. Clem
were standing on either side, talking
to Johnson, who was just outside the
door, Houston fired between their
shoulders, hitting Johnson in the
heart. Johnson turned without word
or shout and ran with all his might to
ward the back of the house The in
mates of the house did not think he
was hit Mr.. and Mrs. Glenn tried to
drive Houston away, but he refused
to ave.saying that he was afraid
johnson would kill him. Finally Mr.
Phillips, one of the boarders, phoned
for an officer and Marshal Walter
Ray came and locked Houston in the
jail, Houston having expressed a de
sire to give himself up
Officer Ray ami others searched for
Johnson back of the Glenn house. but
did no: make a detailed hunt, as 1t
was not thought he was hit, and did
not find him. Probably an hour later
