DEATH by AN AssAss1N's HAND Margaret
Shelton, the colored woman, residing at 800
west Cary street, who was shot on Friday
night while standing before mirror, died
yesterday morning at 8 O'Clock. The
wound itself was not serious, but her con-
dition at the time Of receiving it was such
as to make the fright of fatal consequence.
She maintained throughout that Paul Jas
per was the man who did the cowardly
deed. Her statement is confirmed by her
little son, who asserts that through crack
in the door they saw Jasper moving about
the yard only moment before the shot
came crashing through the window-panes,
lodging in Margaret Shelton's body. There
is some doubt whether deceased absolutely
believed that death was approaching when
she made her statement about Jasper, and
possibly it may be excluded upon his trial.
Jasper was before the Police Court yes
terday morning. He waived examination,
and was sent on to the grand jury OF the
Hastings Court at its January term, and
was committed to Jail. .2a..'
Coroner Taylor will make post mortens
and hold an inquest to-day. The woman
was about forty years Of age, and had many
difficulties with Jasper.
