TWO KILLED IN CIRCUS DUEL
Cowboy and Police Captain Shoot
Each Other at Guifport Miss.
The Shots Sounded Like tine and the
Men Fell Dead Side by Side
in the Ring.

Mobile, Ala.-Two men shot each
other dead in the circus ring of the
Miller Brothers "101 Ranch" Wild
West Show in Gulfport, Miss, and a
riot followed that would have result
ed in many more fatalities if the
Mayor had not rushed a large body Of
policemen and constables to the spot.
One of the duelists was Lon Seely,
a cowboy belonging to the show. The
other was Lee Varnado, captain Of
police. Varnado lost his life because
he disdained to decline a challenge
to fight to the death from Seely after
striking a club out Of the COWBOYS
hand in time to save a tentman. Both
men were killed instantly. Seely's
bullet entered Varnado's mouth and
came out at the back of the captains
head. The policeman's shot went
through the cowboys eye and trav.
ersed the brain.
Quarrels arose among the show
employees when the outfit was pulling
stakes to leave the town. Seely was
on the point of stunning a tentman
with a club when Captain Varnado
rushed up and knocked the weapon
out of his hand. The cowboy, cry
ing, "Tll kill you for thati" whipped
out his pistol. Varnado took out his
revolver at the same time, and the
two backed to opposite sides of the
ring. The shots sounded like one,
and the men, staggering toward each
other, fell side by side in the centre
Of the ring.
A furious attack on the showmen
by the villagers followed. Shots
were fired by both sides. The cow
boys and other show employees stood
about the dead men and repulsed
the attack firmly. So swift was the
Mayors action that the riot was
stopped before any one was hurt.
But the cowboys had to take the
coWgirls and Indian squaws out of
town between two columns, and they
rode on their way with r~evolvers in
their hands.
