george spierman. the colored cow
10y shot yesterday shortly after noon
BY Charles e. Runyan. another cow
boy. is In critical condition today at
~. Anthony's hospital and is not ex-
pected to recover from the wound.
Runyan is in Jail, having been ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Deputy
Sheriffs Estes and Blakely who met
him when they were going out to the
scene OF the shooting.
The trouble, resulting in the shoot
,ng, occurred in the corrals on the
north fork OF Mckay creek where an
indian roundup Is Oeing held. Ac-
cording to Runyan, the colored man
had been "bulldozlng" him for sew
eraI days and yesterday insulted him
Nv calling him sheepherder.
Both Of the cowboys had been as
sisting the Indians at the Roundup
spierman has been working for Roach
brothers on Mckay creek and Runyan
went out several days ago. Runyan
had been breaking a horse to ride and
according TO tne SluIS bdlAILSu w '"N
officers the colored man made some
talk yesterday about riding him and
was advised by Jim Roach that Run
van did not want anybody but him
self and Roach to ride the animal,
Il can ride anything that that
sheepherder can" spierman is alleg-
ed TO have said
Are you calling me shepherd
err" asked Runyan, who was sitting
ON a horse nearby. Runyan says the
negro answered affirmatively and call
I'd him several vile names as he start
cd toward him. II drew my gun and
shot him then" he said.
Only one shot was fired The bullet
,ntered Splermans side, passed
through the abdomen and liver, came
ont OF the body and buried Itself In
the left arm 1t was a soft-nosec
bullet from a IA caliber revolver anc
made a bad wound.

Runyan in Jail Following Shooting
AffraE Victim not Expected to Live

Runyan at once rode away and de-
clares he was coming in to give him
self up. He was met by the officers
several miles this side of the scene
of the shooting and was brought back
to the city Runyan declares the In
dians did not pursue him.
The wounded man suffered terri
lily and begged Jim Roach to kill
him to end his agony, A, Phimister
Proctor, the sculptor, was encamped
nearby with his family at the time Of
the shooting and at once placed Spier-
man in his car ana brought him to
the hospital. He met DR. d. J. Nc
Faul near Mission and the doctor re-
turned with him. 1t was not thought
that he would live through the night
but this morning his condition was an
nounced as a little improved. How
ever, the nature of the wound makes
his recovery extremely doubtful.
Runyan does not seem to be dis
turbed by the fact tnat he is facing a
serious charge. He declares the col
ored man bulldozed him until he could
stand it no longer. He did not ask
until this morning the condition Of
his victim.
Runyan is well known in Pendleton,
having been around mere since the
first Roundup. He rs a cowboy by
occupation and, previous to coming
here, living around Arlington. He has
ridden at every Roundup either in
the bucking contest or in the wild
horse races and has taken part in
bull-dogging contests too.
