MEXICAN MURDERED
NEAR SANDERSON
Bones Found Tied in a Sack
Near Pumpville-Dry
Farm Delegates.

Sanderson. Texas, Aug. ia dead
Mexican was discovered near Pumpville,
SO miles east Of here. and the coroner
and sheriff went down to investigate.
There was nothing but the bones left
of the deceased, but the skull showed
beyond doubt that the unfortunate man
had been murdered, the front right side
OF HIS head being crushed in.
From all indications he had been
dead at least three months, and there
was no clew whatever by which the
guilty sparties might be tracsu. The
bones were found about twenty feet
from the railroad rightofway and
near the Val Verde-Terren county line,
wrapped in an old wool sack, a blanket
and slicker, with rope bound tightly
around the chest.
The theory advanced by the officers
lis that he was a member Of a sheep
Shearing gang which had been at work
n ear there. and when last springs sea-
sion closed he went TO that place TO
catch train and was either killed by
triamps or members of the shearins
gang. Three large rocks with blood
and human hair on them were found
near the body.

BRUTAL DOG CATCHERS.
Editor Ell Paso Herald:
The complaints of cruelty that have
been given from time to time inspire
these lines. These charges upon some,
of the dog catchers were given at a
meeting Of Christian ladies recently, by
one whose word gives safety in quot
ing, the breaking of a dogs back in

currence choking, etc We speak with
pride of our local improvements, Of

Is true in a measure, but Oh, the cruelty
We see daily. Let US take hold Of this
colossal sin and stop 1t. A radical re-
form is what we need.
Cultured owners regard their animals
as required adjuncts to their happiness,
else they would not own them, more,
they love and wish to protect them from
the mahgnity in the nature of the cruel
men and boys. For we know cruelty
emanates from a depraved nature. cow

catcherS are in the same boat with
Jack the Ripper" and others OF a like
degenerate ilk. The death and loss and
suffering of these many pets from the
ing has left sore hearts, tears and real
grief in the wake Of these depraved
dog catchers.
The dog has Jared in poetry as well
as the horse. Its nobility is noted in
song. Tray" by Robert Browning, ex-
