NEGRO SOLDIER coNFEssEs.
Members OF Twenty-Ffth Infantry
Shot I'D Brownsville.

Galveston, Textile mystery sur
rounding the alleged raid OF the negro
soldiers from the Twenty-ffth imam
try upon the people of Brownsville,
Texas, on August 10, last year, has
been cleared up. according to a story
printed by the Galveston News.
After seven months of investigation
by federel authorities, what appears to
be the true version of the crime has
been secured from D. G. Gray, one OF
the discharged soldiers, who admits
that he partially participated.
The man has been living in Calves
ton a large portion of the time since
he was discharged from the army
soon after the outrage.
According to his statement, the at.
tack was not premeditated, but was
the result of an alleged injury done
one of the soldiers by a white man in
Brownsville half an hour before the
raid The negro, returning to the
barracks, seized his rifle and an
nounced that he was going to kill the
white man. Several other negro SOL
diers volunteered to go along and see
the work well done, and to wipe out
other scores which they had against
the citizens on account of injuries
which they claimed to have suffered.
The negroes returned to the bar
racks after committing the assault on
the town, and many soldiers assisted
In the hurried cleaning of the guns
for the inspection which followed soon
after the shooting in the town ceased
APPARENTLY the soldiers from only one
company participated in the raid, al
though practically the entire battalion
knew the soldiers had done the shoot

Horse rails with Boy.

A serious accident almost re-
suited Saturday while Floyd
Dunlap and several Of his chums
were having a good time on
Main street. Floyd was riding
his horse and pulling a small
express wagon in which the boys
were riding, by means Of a 25
foot rope tied securely to the
horn Of the saddle. Everything
went on well for a while and the
boys were having the time Of
their lives until Floyd jerked
back on the reins; the horse,
being tender mouthed and feel
ing the rope tightening, reared
back SO high that it lost its
balance and turned a complete
sommersault backward with the
boy. Luckily, as the horse fell
on top Of the boy it rolled over
to one side. Bystanders were on
the spot in a moment and the
lad rescued before further harm
could be done him.
Upon examinations it was
found that he was not seriously
injured, although badly bruised
about the head and legs. Floyd
will be able to be out again in a
few days.

comment heard on all sides dur
ing the closing hours Of the May
vile Fair, given under the aus
pices of the Oranges Of Gillian
and Wheeler counties on Tues
day and Wednesday Of this week.
So successful was this first at
tempt that 1t Is understood SINH
lar events win be held each year
in the future. During the two
days exhibition Of the products
Of the two counties, ii has been
estimated that fully 1000 people
saw the wonderful display Of the
resources Of Gillian and Wheeler
counties and all Of these have
praised the work of the different
oranges and especially the peo-
pie Of Mayville who spared no
efforts in making the fair what
it was.
The fact that 54S entries were
received confirms the idea that
the first Grange Fair was well
patronized. The display Of the
products from fruits, garden
truck to articles Of the culi-
nary art and needle work, was
large and especially Of a choice
selection. displayed in a large
building to q great advantage.
A GLOBE representative who had
the pleasure to witness the ex-
hibits heard many who were
heretofore unacquainted with
Eastern Oregon products, utter
exclamations Of surprise upon
their first glance at the array
Of fruits and vegetables. Some
even said that we had no rivals
when it came to apple raising.
The master of the Oregon State
Grange, A. 7. Buxton, who is
an old friend Of the GLOBE
representative, was especially
astonished at the exhibits and
said, Eve, of Western Oregon,
who come here for the first time
have no idea Of the excellence
of the products you grow in these
two counties. | must say that
this fair is a great success and
that others should be held in the
future. !"
The stock show was still more
interesting as many farmers had
brought their thoroughbred stock
for exhibition. The yards were
filled with prize winners and
among the cattle, horses, hogs and
sheep were rivals for any state
fair blue ribbon winners.
