The Prussian successes have been re-
garded by many as astonishing, but when
the fact is considered that war is science
depending on numbers, discipline, intelli-
gent handling Of large bodies OF troops, a
plenty of rations and abundant supplies of
war materials, there is less surprise than
would otherwise be felt. Though the French
troops had good arms to fight with, they
could not well march with empty haver-
sacks and no .commissariat in prospect
There are numbers of people whe have been
so fortunate as to draw large prizes in the
Louisiana State Lottery. But they have
done it by reducing the matter to a science
and buying lottery tickets early and often.
BY this means they have beeen as success
ful as those who invariably, when election
comes. vote early and vote often. Mr.. Will

SHANG McLAUG HIN
PARTICULARS OF THE AFFAIR

St. Charles street, between Poydras and
Canal, had but little to talk Of but the
shooting affair which took place in the
second story of No. IS, between twelve and
one o'clock Friday night. The only par
ticulars published were found in this paper.
Information reached us that Mclaughlin
visited the same saloon Thursday night, and
fired pistol in one of the rooms, creating
considerable annoyance, and for the time
dispensing male and female pleasure seek
ers. 1t is not known whether Shang dis
charged the weapon with evil intent or not,
but from that incident grew the affair of
Friday night. Billy Eadermore, one of
the lessees of No. 66, demonstrated
with Shang for the disturbance, and
there was an end. Friday or Friday night
Eadermore was warned that Mclaughlin
intended repeating the visit, or something
to that effect, and that he would perhaps
create further disturbance A few minutes
after midnight Shang entered the rooms,
somewhat intoxicated. We did not hear
that he made any demonstrations, but he
had not remained in the room long before
four or five shots, in rapid succession, were
poured into him. Instantly all was confu-
sion, the beerhouse girls, loafers and devo-
tees of keno, either striving to escape or to
ascertain the reason for shooting.
Fortunately, Sergeant Flanagan was near
the place, and as he assembled the stairs,
Shang, badly wounded, was trying to make
his way out. The officer. not knowing the
condition of affairs, took him prisoner, until
he was made aware of Shang's position,
when he sent him to the Charity Hospital in
cab.
The sergeant, assisted by patrolmen. en-
deavored to keep every person in the several
rooms until he could see the situation for
himself, for he was bent on arresting the
man who had done the shooting. The
wounded man told him that " Keno Billy y
was the one. Instantly entering a front
room, he saw that some one was pursuing
Eadermore Tor Admar), endeavoring to
shoot him with revolver that
missed fire every click. Flanagan captured
both of them; also all she Others in the
room, simply to have them as witnesses.
HIS action is worthy of mention. Having
saved Eadermore from his pursuer,' the SER
geant and some patrolmeR took the party
to the first precinct stationhouse, where
Captain Schneider released those held as
witnesses. to appear when notified, taking
their addresses.
Yesterday accused was arraigned before
Recorder Houghton and pleaded not guilty
to the charge made by Sergeant Flanagan.
Of shooting and dangerously wounding Nc
Laughlin. He was remanded to prison
until Shang's condition shall be definitely
ascertained. Last night the hospital sur
geons were Of the opinion that he could sur
vive. although one bullet had given them
considerable trouble.
