A Headless Body.

Paris, Tex., April 20.—Deputy Marshal Fleming came in from the Territory to-day and reports that while traveling in the Choctaw Nation, fifty miles northeast of this city, in the search of a band of criminals he came upon the body of a man by the side of the road, with his head cut entirely off, which was found sitting upright on the other side of the road with the face toward it. There were seven bullet holes in the breast and the blood stains showed the crime had been committed only a few hours before.
