THOUGHTS ON
THE HORSE
Tin v Is no wrong without a remedy" Is a maxim of law If you
have tn-at.'d your family horse unfairly by putting 411-flttJiiz .ihoet
on his feet, there is a remedy close at hand, llrlng your horse to
'" "hop, where an expert horseshoer that does nothing else but
fhoe horses will take charge of his foot.' Thoy will feel easy on
hi.- feet, your horse will be mo ro obedient, less nervous and you
wltl have the batUfaion of knowing you have at least been kind

History of Hunter's Crime.
Sheriff OarrUin was killed on the
evening of Friday, June S. IMS, near
Hitchcock. He. in company with Tom
Warden ami Fate Sanders of this city,
went to Hitchcock to capture Hunter
for tho killing of Susie Pride, a negio
woman of this city. Hunter had been
here previously and in a quarrel with
another negro began shooting. The
Pride woman was struck by one ol
the bullets.
Hunter made his escape at the time,
but was heard of by the oftcers in a
number of places. Hunter's wife
lived here and a.ulstod the officers
materially in locating Hunter.
Arriving at Hitchcock, the officers
started across tho country to a farm
at which they were informed Hunter
was working. Pefore reaching tin
place they obuerved two negroes walk
ing rapidly across fields and bellowng
Hunter was one of them started in
pursuit.
Being In a buggy the otflcer.i gained
on them. Hunter disappeared, but
presently catno in sight with a sun.
Then the chaso became fast ami fu
rious and shooting back and fort.i
began. Hunter's companion surrcn
dered to the offlcors. He is now serv
ing a term in the iwitonttrtry.
Tho light then took place between
Hunter and tho three officers. Tho
first to fall was Fate Sanders, shot in
the hip. About this tlmo Sheriff Oar

many months. Many times he was
reported as having been seen at dif
