SHOOTING German named Chas
Schroeder, who keeps grocery store on
the lower part of Virginia avenue, was
shot and dangerously wounded about
noon yesterday, by negro named VIM.
Ray Two butternut farmers, from
franklin township, came in and began
TO abuse Ray, who finally drew pistol
and fred at one of them. Attempting
to fire second time, one of the farmers
struck the pistol down, when it was dis.
charged, the ball striking the counter,
glancing, and entering the abdomen Of
Schroeder, who was standing behind the
counter. The ball ranged upwards, and
did not probably wound any of the in
testines. Schroeder, after he was shot
seized bowlder and pounded the ne.
groes head in terrible manner. Ray
was arrested by officer Andy Wallace
taken before Esquire Coulon and com
mitted to jail, to await the result Of
Schroeder's iniuries.-Tnd Journal.

A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
For nearly four years We have labored
through the columns of the JOURNAL,
and privately among our citizens, to in
duce the building of frst class hotel
in our city, and had almost abandoned
all hope Of ever seeing the work accom-
plished. There has been no greater
drawback to the prosperity, as well as
the reputation of our city Thousands
upon thousands Of dollars have been lost
to the business of the city from the want
of a place where merchants and bust
ness men could find proper entertain
ment while in the city, from which want
such merchants and business men have
been driven to Louisville, Cincinnati, or
elsewhere. Almost the first greeting we
receive, when speaking of Evansville to
strangers, is the remark: You have no
hotel in Evansville" and what is most
Notifying is the conviction that the re-
mark is correct, and not only so, but
that this is about the only place in the
State that attempts to put on city airs
without respectable hotel building.
The public houses in this city, for
their capacity, are as well kept, perhaps,
as any hotels in the State; but thiswant
of capacity-of sroom--has circam-
scribed the efforts Of the proprietors
We are gratifed to learn, however,
that this state of affairs is likely to un-
dergo most desirable change. 800
For several days past we have heard
vague hints that company was being
formed to build frst-class hotel, and
we confess our incredibly, suppo sing il
was another ebulition in public senti.
ment, such as we have frequently wit.
messed, and which resulted in nothing
Last night, however, we were shown the
list of stockholders who have already
put their names on paper. We no long
err doubted, and now believe that new
and elegant otel is fixed fact.
There is already 800, GOO subscribed
and by men who not only have thu
money to invest, but the nerve to carr.

of the stock necessary to build the hote
and put it into successful operation cal

difficulty will probably be TO properl.
