young LADY Sil and killed
by A FARMER AT
Fort Worth, Tex., Nov. 1.—In a duel
In the dark Monday mprutng at !>
o'clock, R. H. (Dick) Bates, a prosper-
ous farmer living: six mile.-! north of
Arlington, shot and instantly killed
Miss Lulu Williams, 25-year-old daugh-
ter of T. h. Williams, a neighbor.
Batees, who surrendered, claims that
Mis* Williams fired the first shot af-
ter calling him from his bed.
When the tx>dy of Miss Williams
was discovered, lying at the gate of
l he Bates' home, the woman was clad
in a man's long overcoat and a mans
cap. A 38-onliber pistol from which
one bullet had been discharged was
lying by her side.
Bates is a married man, 40 years
of age. He and Miss Williams had
been acquainted for more than two
•years. ,,
Bates says that he was called from
his bed about 5 o'clock Monday morn-
ing, while it was still dark. He dis-
cerned a figure near his gate. (Ho
nays he picked up his shotgun and,
going out at the back door, turned the
(orner into his front yard ju®t as the
person at the gate fired, with a pistol
He fired with his shotgun, and thought
he saw someone running away.
Both Bates an I the Williams family
are well connected, ar.d have lived in
the Arlington country Tor yeans.
He claim* that a few days ago he
received a threatening letter, and a.-
armed himself Monday morning before
venturing from his hoifce. To friends
In Arlington and to the officers Bates
talked freely lof the killing and said
he shot in self-defense.
Then he saw a figure fleeing In the
distance. He waited a few minutes and
thinking th«, intruder had «one unin-
jured, as there was no outcry, the
fanner went back to bed. There was
no more disturbance and he slept until
after 6 o'clock, his usual time of ris-
ing. When he went to the sate he
discovered Miss Williams prostrate on
the ground. Apparently, she had been
killed instantly. Without disturbing
the dead body, Bates sought Dr.
Rhodes, told the story of the crime
and surrendered himself.
The whole countryside is excited
over the tragedy. Miss Williams was
the daughter of T. h. Williams, a
farmer, who has been a neighbor of
Bales for yean . The ?-oung woman
returned recently from a two years'
stay la Oklahoma.
Miss Williams and Bates were close
friends and both families are highly
■respected throughout the community.
Bates formerly conducted a butcher
shop nt Arlington.
Based on Bates' vague testimony to
the officers, mystery at tonda th« trag-
edy. Whether the young woman was
alione or whether it was a man's voice
that summoned Bates to the door in
the darkness has not been deter-
mined."
AS TO INSURANCE.
At a neighboring town the other day
fire destroyed the «Hop and outfit of
a Tnaehine m m valued at $10,000 an!
he carried not a cent's Insurance. He
told a newspaper reiiorter that he had
worked hard all of Ills lift*—he is past
middle age—and had his shop clear of
Incumbrance and was enjoying a good
business. He will have to begin all
ftvcr again, in his old age. with noth-
ing but his energy. We hope he will
make good and come out In the end
with more than he starte. But the
chances are that he will never recover
from the handicap which was virtually
.«•elMmfposed. We never had a fire in
our life and hope never to. We are
tinder no obligations to any insurance
company and have no insurance to
sell. We may, therefore, be permitted
to eay, without self-interest, that no
poor man, no man In moderate clr-
cutiwtanees can afford njnt to cariy
insurance. The rich may carry their
own Insurance—for that's what carry-
ing none means. But for the main in
moderate circumstances it is simply
too great a hazard to undertake to do
business without an insurance policy
that will at least partially reimburse
him for his loss. It's so of life insur-
iujee and tornado insurance and ac-
cident insurance, too, and the man
with a family or even without can, it
seems to us, make better invest-
ment than in an Insurance policy with
a reliable company.—Denton Chroni-
cle.
