Some one has been circulating the re-
port that Capt. Patrick has withdrawn
irom the canvaVs tor the office of county
assessor. The Gazetteer speaks advis-
edly when it tells'jts readers that there is
no truth whatever-jn this report. The re-
sult of our inquirifes is that the Captain
has a strong following in the country pre-
cincts, atso in Sherman, while at home
he has practically no opposition. No,
the Captain has not withdrawn and never
thought of' such a thing. It looks now
as though he would "get there'" by a flat-
tering maioritv The Gazetteer can say
this tor the Captain—he is capable.

Denison certainly will be well - repre-
sented at j the state drill in Austin next
week. Both the home companies, to-
gether with their sponsors, chaperons,
maids of honor, chaplains, butlers, stew-
ards, officers and high privates, will be'
present in a military capacity as guests of
the state. Arrangements have been in.
active preparation some time, and much
interest has developed in the encamp-
menjt. Capts. 'Gates and Bridendolph
have giveri untiring energy and attention
to details in the arrangement ot the trip,
and tew if any companies in the state
will appear in the drill under more favor-
able auspices. Quartermaster generals
tor each company w^nt down to Austin
Friday to superintend the location of
camps, selection ot utensils and the mak-
ing ot such other arrangemenls as will be
necessary for the success, pleasure artd
comfort of the companies. Miss Dell
Yocom, daughter of Mayor Yocom, will
accompany the Rifles as their sponsor.
Mrs. "Top" J. G. West will accompany
her as chaperon, and Miss Maud Over-
acre, of Piano, Tex., will be maid ot
honor.
It will require two cars to transport the
horses belonging to the Stanley Rangers.
The company has been successful in
securing the very best horses in the city,
and they will no doubt make a big show-
ing in the capital city. The state will
bear all expenses, including transporta-
tion o| the companies, the" company-
guests, icamp equipments, uniforms, guns,
horses,'and all. "Miss Clara Person,
sponsor for the Rangers, will be accom-
panied by her mother as chaperon and
Miss' Birdie Crooks as maid of honor.
It is probable that not less than 100
people from Denison will attend the drill.
The companies leave here to-uay (Sun-
day), and will remain eight or ten days.
PROBABLY THE WRONG MAN.
City Marshal J. M. Cooley, of Hills-
boro,'arrived in Denison Tuesday at noon
from Henrietta, having in custody a man
by the name of Bill Willis, who, it was
thought, might be connected with the
murder of Maud Kramer in this city oh
May 18. A Gazetteer reporter called
on Willis at the city jail, and if his (Wil-
lis') story is true it was impossible for
him to have committed the crime. He
states that he was in Denison on Maj' 1
and 2, and at that time he was entirely
without money. . Walking out to Potts-
boro he succeeded in stealing a ride on a
freight train to Whitesboro. At that
place he met up with and accompanied a
railroad outfit up to, a puint in the Chick-
asaw nation, and since that time he ans-
wered to time-call at camp every day until
July 1. He states that not only #will the
time-book show his name daily, but that
dozens of men in camp know that he has
been there since the 4th or 5th ot May.
He knew nothing whatever ot the killing
here until some one brought a paper con-
taining an account ot it to the camp. He
is a blacksmith by trade, is 35 or 40 years
of age, rather tall, and has a heavy sandy
moustache. He gives Dade county, Ten-
nessee, as the home of his nativity, but
states that he has not been there for fit-
teeh or more years.
A man by the name of Bill Williams,
who answers the description of Bill Wil-
lis, is wanted in Jones county on a seri-
ous charge, and as a niece by the name of
Maude Williams is missing,"and from the
further fact that a picture ot Maude Wil-
liams bears a close resemblance to one ot
Maude Kramer, it was thought possible
that Maude Kramer was none other than
Maude Williams. The last seen 01
Maude WfUliams was in Jones county,
and as she was the victim of her uncle's
C'ime, so the story goes, it might have
been that her kinsmdn shot and killed hei

oner tor Hillsboro, where he will be held

'Attention is directed to the advertise-
ment of the grocery hoqse of Alex. Ren-
nie, Jr., which will be found on the first
page. Mr. Rennie and his clerks were"
■ busy yesterdav securing the first shipment
of new goods, and the arrivals will not
let up until he has as nice a stock of
family groceries as can be found in the
county. Mr. Sam Hanna who is in
ot the purchasing department, is an ex-
perienced grocery man, and he informs
the Gazetteer that Mr. Rennie buys for
cash, and proposes to give his customers
the advantages in points which this poli-
cy will enable him to extend.
Major Dills has a great many friends
in Denison, and it instructions are given
at the piimaries for any one but Clark

men to represent the county in Austin.
He has served the state well in this capa-
city, and should be retained.

has authority tor saving~~that while Dr.

There is an attempt in certain quarters
to create a prejudice against Sherih Mc-
Afee because he defended the negro Mas-
sev from the mob that threatened to hang
him. Of course, Sheriff McAfee but did
his sworn duty, and every good, law-abid-
ing citizen will applaud him tor it. It is
just such men that we want in office, men
who have the nerve to do their duty un-^
der all circumstances,. If this paper had
been opposed to the candidacy of Mr.
McAfee, an attempt to defeat him on
such grounds would make it his sup-
porter. *-A peace officer who would allow
a crowd of excited men to take a prisoner
from hi# custody without using all the
means in his power to protect him,
would disgrace ,himself and - the State.
What Texas needs is just such Sheriffs as
McAfee, and the Gazetteer predicts
that the primaries of Denison artd of
Qrayton county- think that way by a large1
majority.

tice In another-column, has opened a law
office at 326 Main street. C°l. Teague is

Monday morning, Julv 4, a farmer liv-
ing four miles west of Pottsboro, shot
and Instantly killed his hired man, Mor-
gan Pack, turning to his wife almost sev-
eied her head trom her body, and then
with the bloody Instrument repeated the
operation on his own throat. It was a
short story, yet the mind staggers and re-
volts at its enormity and it* utter brutal-
ity. It seems impossible that a human
being would be capable of doing so henU
ous an act; yet it is only on a plain with
the butcheries of defenseless women in
this city on the iSth ot last May., The
fountains of hell were turned loose, and
the men who did the work were heartless
and devoid of compassion. Every noble
and manly instinct had gone down be-
fore the raging furies ot a distorted and
diseased mind. Man in his normal con-
dition is, incapable ot doing such cruel
worn.
M. M. Pierce, together with his wife,
the wife's four children and a hired man
by the name ot Morgan Pack, resided on
the Bill Shannon tarm, about tour miles
west of Pottsboro, and immediately on
the railway. In fact, the road runs
through the farm. The Pierce family
moved to the farm sometime last fall or
winter, and were not very well acquaint-
ed in the neighborhood. The husband
was known as a peaceable and Industrious
man, while the family weie moderately
neat and intelligent. The oldest child
was a girl some 14 or 15 years of age,
while all the others were boys. The lady
had been married twice before her union
with Pierce. Her parents live somewhere
in east Texas. Pierce is said to be a na-
tive of north Georgia, but ot this there- is
as vet no positive evidence. The tamily,
including Pack, had decided to spend the
4th in Sherman, and on Sunday Mri.
Fierce, assisted by the children, cooked
and stowed away in boxes provisions for
a picnic dinner. Last week Pierce had
purchased trom Mr. Potts, at Pottsboro, a
span ot young mules,Tind early Monday
morning Pack went out to the lot to har-
ness them up. Pierce failed to him and
requested him to catch one ot the mules
and work it with a horse. Both the ani-
mals had been caught ; one of them was
standing near the wagon, while Pack had
lead the other down to a water trough to
watei. Two of the children were in the
wagon, two in the yard, and Mrs. Pierce
was sitting in the front door fastening
one of her shoes. Pierce, who was in the
front yard, entered the building, took the
squirrel rifle from its rack, and, passing
out at the rear door, walked around to a
point near the well. Pack was standing
with his back to the house, when the old-
est child, who was in the wagon, saw her
stepfather raise his gun and fire. She,
with all the children, began screaming
and running away as fast as they could.
They went in the direction of the nearest
neighbor, farmer Tanrter. After getting
a quarter of a mile away one of the little
bovs mustered up courage and went back
to the house. The other children were
too frightened to accompany him, and
they continued on to Mr. Tanner's. They
did" not know the-extent of the tragedy.
They had heard their mother screaming,
and "realized that something terrible was
transpiring, but were not aware of their
toother's death until their return home
with . neighbors. The little baretoqted
fellow, however, who returned home tells
the following. On returning to the
house he was afraid to go irv Irom the
tront. lie entered trom the rear, and
creeping up to the window peeped in'.
His stepfather was In the room sitting on
the edge of the bed wiping the blood
fiom his neck. The man got up, walked
out into the yard where the mother lay,
and after turning her body over, lay
down by its side. The lad entered the
room from the rear and passed through it
to where his mother and father were
lying. He says his father kicked at him
and he got awayj. In a very short time
neighbors began gathering in, and on the
arrival of the firstr the victims were all
dead Pack sank dead in his tracks, hot
knowing what killed him. Blood was
still flowing from the wounds of Mr. and
Mrs. Pierce, and in thd room where the
boy sa«v his" father sitting on the bed,
blood was scattered over everything, and'
on the floor were the fresh barefooted,
tracks ot the boy where he had first gone
through. When Pierce was cefyain he,
had killed the hired man he turneii to his
wife, but just how he made way with herj
will never be known, except that her head
was almost severed trom her body with a
razor. It must have been full ten or fif-
teen minutes after this when he cut his
own'throat, for the little boy had gone a
quarter of a mile and returned, and, as
stated above, at that time Pierce was sit-
ting on the side ot the bed. The horses
were standing at the wagon just as they
were when the children ran away. Pack
had not moved. The ball entered the
back of his head from the left side, tear-
ing away a portion ot the skull. A cour'
ier-was dispatched to Pottsboro, and from
there a telegraph message was sent to
Sheriff -McAfee at Sherman. Justice
Odel, in company with six or eight men
from Pottsboro, went out as soon as pos-
sible. The children were utterly Ignor-
ant of any cause leading to the tragedy,
and a search of the house began. In a
trunk a number ot letters were found,
and among them were three penned by
Pierce. They read as follows:
Pottsboro, Tex., July 1.—This is to
show to the people that I do what I may
to save further trouble, as I am not treat-
ed right, and I want to live honest to my
woman and the people, and I am going
to put a stop to it, or at least that is my
mind r.ow. My notion may change. I
am very sorry that such is the case. It is
this way with me and- my woman. We
disagree to some ext>-nt In our conversa-
tion, still If we do I want pleasure with
her. But my good woman accuses me
wrong in some things and I do her the
same. She has treated me right, I have
done her the same, and if I can't have
pleasure with her I don't want any one
to, as I have managed and worked hard
to get along. I consider I am a reason-
able man in most respects and 60 is she.
The next letter in order, was as follows:
Graysov County, Texas, July 3.—My
woman says she will not be my friend any
longer and I can't stand for her to be
some one else's friend, as I love her above
all things on earth, and the blessed little
ones, I love them and I have managed
along with them very well, but now I am
getting to where I could do better by
them all and to think my dear woman
will go-back on me. It is hard, for I have
spent a good deal of money since I have
been with them, but I dp not regret it if
she would but stick to me. So I will
close. ? M. M. Pierce.
P. S.—Well, I-ijate to depart from this
earth, as I could be a useful man. and I
have got a sensible woman and a beauti-
ful one and could be a good one if she
would. We have got a good crop com-
ing on. I want it to satisfy all my obli-
gations.
The third and last written letter was
addressed to the children as follows:
Gravson County, Texas, July 3.-—Ad-
vice to the deal little children—Qla,
Laura, Jim and John : Be good children
and keep good company, Don't do any-
thing wrong. Of course the crop and
stqck is good for all my indebtedness, and
of course it is more than good, for it is a
fine prospect. Dear children, I hate that
I can't be with you and your ma and see
pie-sure. I hate that I ain't treated you
all better, but, dear children, take things
into consideration, and I have done
mighty well. God bless you all and God
bless your dear mother and God bless me.
I pray to God to pardon me of my sins.
I dearly love vour mother. I pray tor
God —. --
Here it ended abruptly without a signa-
ture. .. .
Pierce was a native of Georgia and
about 40 years old. He was rather above
the average height, and inclined to be a
little rawboned. He had dark hair and
moustache and clear blue eyes. He was
rather prepossessing. He was an honest,
hardworking man, but he was adNited to
drinking, and while he was under the in-
fluence of liquor he was rather ovei bear-
ing and inclined to think he was being
imposed upon.
His wife was quite a small woman, and
more than ordinarily good-looking, and
bore her 35 years of age quite lightly.
She was a widow with four children when
she was married to Pierce in Upshur
county, Tesas, about four years ago. A
telegram from Sheriff McAfee to an ad-
dress supposed to be that ot her father at
Gilmer carried information ot the terri-
ble affair. The surname ot the children
could not be learned.
Qf" Morgan E. Pack, the other victim,
but little is known except that he once
lived near Van Alstyne- He had letters
in his pockets showing him to have had
acquaintances in Sherman, and to one ot
them, Jack Rich, 897 North Branch
street, he had an unposted card stating
that he would like to meet him (Rich) at
a certain place, naming next Saturday as
