a Deliberate Murder.

Another deliberate and brutal muir
der in New York, on remarkably
slight prOvOcatiOn, is now to be re-
corded. Clarence Lockwood, a young
printer, was deliberately shot and NOR
tally wounded while sitting in his room,
by Marshal MacGruder, a fellOw-Crafts-
man and a fellow-bOarder, at 154 Madi-
son street, because of a silly quarrel
about pretty girl, who also lives in the
house The quarrel began at party
late on Saturday or early on Sunday
morning. The two had been paying
court to the girl, when MacGruder got
angry and used insulting words to Lock
wood. Then hot words followed on
both sides, Lockwood strIiCk MacGruder
in the face, and then there was a scutfle.
At this point they were separated, when
MacGruder cried out: you're right :;
I'll not fight you on Sunday; but to-
morrow I'll shoot you like dog Pre-
pare yourself, for I'll shoot you like a
dog" Monday evening, when the
boarders were at dinner, MaCGruder
came in slightly intoxicated. He stood
in the doorway of the dining-room and
glanced rapidly around until he saw
LockwOOd's vacant chair. Then he turn
ed to the girl who had been the cause of
the mischief on Sunday morning, and
asked, Where is Lockwood = She re-
piled Il don't know. l guess he's
gone out of town. Then he turned
and ran rapidly up stairs to LOckwood's
room. Lockwood was sitting in an easy
chair near the fire. McGruder advanced
to the centre of the room, deliberately
drew n pistol and pointed it at him.
-y1a o,,t Aap( 1rt1. lpP Il rod IN q
first shot and missed him. Lockwood
started towards his assailant, when the
latter took deliberate aim and fired.
This shot took effect in Lockwood's alb
domen and he fell. MaCGruder glared
down on the man with look OF salts
faction, and then, as the bOarders, alarm
ed by the noise of the pistol shots, press
vo5ISVie6irG, CRYING, 'iTll snoot any one OF
YOU who dares to interfere with me, ~
and pushed by them down into the din
ing-room and sat down to his dinner,
saving with a smile to the waiter, I'm
afraid my coffee is cold, but no matter. -
4 policeman was, after while, called
in. He went down into the dining-rOOm,
and after MacGruder had handed his re-
volver sat down by him while he leisure
ly finished his meal. Then stretcher
