NAN Shot IN THE WEST WARD.-Several
weeks ago young man named Burns from
Burnside COlliery entered the house OF a man
named Smith who lives near Weaver's breaker
in the West Ward. Burns asked for something
which was refused him, whereupon he took out
a knife and ripped open lounge aud then left.
Thursday evening of last week Burns appeared
again at the same house and having been re-
cogEzed he stepped outside and fired into the
aSuse, the ball taking effect in the thigh of
Smith. Burns then fled and has not been ap-
pretended yet. Drs. Krickbaum and Helen
bach extracted the ball. Burns fired right in
among the family and It is n wonder that he did
not strike Mrs. Smith or some of the children.

HESNINGER SHOOTS BACK.

After the firing outside had commenced Hen
ninger started up stairs where he had rife and
double barreled shot gun, and quickly loading
these in the dark, he began TO take measures 10
defend his castle. Two balls were put in each
barrel of the shot gun aud one ball in the rife.
Taking aim through the window at several OF
the Williams who were oil about twenty-yards he
had the satisfaction OF seeing one man drop.
Then the robbers opened fire in earnest, shoot
ing promiscuously into the windows and door
but luckily hitting none Of the twelve persons
who were huddled together in the small space
inside.
Henninser again took aim, this time at one OF
the robbers who was stationed on the wood pile,
and this shot also took effect, leaving spots of
blood all over the wood, but the robber was not
30 badly hurt bat what he could get away.
Once more a volley was returned, snattering a
looking gass, picture frame and window panes,
but again miraculously missing the inmates
