Native of Texas, Grandson of Lata
John H. Reagan and ■Formerly
a Member of the Thirty-Third
United States Infantry.
Austin, Dec. 2tJ__The account of
the decisive battle in Nicaragua on
Dec. 14, when the revolutionists in-
flicted such a severe blow to the gov-
ernment forces, is of unusual interest
to Texans owing to the fact that a son
of this state, Captain Godfrey R.
Fowler, formerly of the Thirty-third
United States infantry, was at head of
Infantry forces of the victorious army.
Captain Fowler is a grandson of the
late John H. Reagan. He has been in
Nicaragua but a short time and holds
the position of official stenographer in
Judge Gardner’s (district) court with
headquarters at Palestine.
Fowler, although a young man, has
seen hard service with a most credit-
able record in the Philippines. He
was with General Luther Haref also a
Texan, in the Gilmore rescue expedi-
tion. Captain Fowler’s company be-
came detached from the main com-
mand while the troops were in the
bewildering mountain fastnesses, and
suddenly his company of about 100
men fouud itself facing a village with
over 400 troops drawn up and ready
for action. Captain Fowler well know
that hesitation meant ruin, so he halt,
ed his men, went forward under a flag
of truce and demanded unconditional
surrender, stating that his company
was merely the advance guard of a
large force. The native at once laid
down their arms. The captain then
marched his men in, took charge of all
weapons and held the village until re-
inforcements arrived. For this strat-
egy he was mentioned in the battle ac-
counts and accorded distinction by the
government.
Adjutant General Newton said he
was not aware of any complications
growing out of Fowler’s services with
the Nicaraguan insurgents. Fowler is
a retired captain in the Texas Nation-
al Guard and ou the supernumerary
list, but by the appointment of the
governor has the rank of lieutenant
colonel as an aide on the staff of the
governor. General Newton says the
only irregularity is that Fowler left
the state without securing a permit, but
that, he says, is a minor considera-
tion. _______
BUYS THIRTY AUTOS.
Farmer Makes That Number of
Purchases at Detroit.
Detroit, Dec. 2(1.—J. A. Coe, a Sas-
katchewan fanner, dropped into this
city and by the time he had completed
his mission he had purchased thirty
automobiles—one for himself and the
other twenty-nine for friends in the
far northwest. He is not an agent. He
told bis neighbors he was going east
and they gave him their orders, ac-
companied by bank drafts.
The deals were mostly cash and ag-
gregated nearly $100,000. Coe paid
$4,600 for his own machine. The cars
are all high grade, several being ol
$4,000 and $5,000 classes,
Bumper wheat crops in the north-
west were the cause of so jBueh pros
parity.

Hlffyor md Shooter of Offleor Hava
Running Piatol Duel, Black Hit

and Hanged In Fire Tower.
Rosebud, Tex., Dec. 24.-In an ef-
fort to place Coke Mills, a negro, un-
der arrest, the charge being of minor
character, the lutter, after being pur-
sued some distance, suddenly turned
and shot twice City Marshal Williams,
one bullet entering the intestines, In-
flicting what surgeons said would be u
bad wound.
Mayor Ward continued the chase
after the negro and when near the oil
mills n duel ensued. Mills was shot
in the right leg below the knee and
captured. He was taken to cityjail.
Some fifty men went to the jail about
half an hour after the marshal was
shot, stormed the prison and seizing
Mills took him to the fire ' station. A
rope was placed about his neck and
he was hanged in the tower.
I1 or a while there was much excite-
ment in this Fails county city, but after

tion soon dispersed.
