SHOOTING AFFRAY.
An Attempt Made to shoot Esquire
Il. M. Winters-The Assaulter shot
I'm the Back OF the Neck by
Some Unknown Person.

Yesterday evening about seven o'clock
Murtaeh Donohue, an Irish grocery keeper
doing business on Front street, near Auction,
opposite the county Jail, while intoxicated,
came in hack to the Office of Esquire P. NJ.
Winters, on Main street, opposite the court
house, and meeting Esquire Winters down
stairs on the street asked him to go up In his
Office. On entering his Office. Esquire Win
tiers went to his desk, supposing that Dono-
hue desired to get out some kind of a writ.
As he did so he turned around and said:
"Well, Mr. Donohue, what do you want?"
AS he did so Donohue said: you are the
man that swore in the criminal court that |
was crazy, and with this he seized Esquire
Winters In his arms, drew a revolver
from his pocket and leveled it at him. Es-
quire Winters lodged under his arm and
seizing the pistol wrested it from him. He
then threw the pistol out of the window into
the street. Donohue seized him again, and,
carrying him to the open window, made a
desperate effort to pitch him out headlopg,
the hight being some twenty or more feet.
Esquire Winters struggled desperately and
cried for help. At once those on the street
seeing the struggle rushed up stairs to sepa-
rate the combatants. While so doing, some
one fred a pistol, and Donohue fell at once,
releasing Esquire Winters. 1t was believed
that Donohue had been killed, but on exami-
nation being made 1t was discovered that the
ball passed through the back muscles of his
neck beneath the base of the brain, doing
what is known to deer hunters as "creasing, ="
and inhicting a painful, but not dangerous
wound. Donohue was taken home, and the
police arrested young man named Charley
Waters, nephew of Esquire Winters, on
the charge OF firing the pistol shot. The
matter will be investigated by the recorder
to-day.

Why the Female Journalists Failed.

Cincinnati Chronicle: After all, the women
journalists of Chicago have broken down.
Their paper has been sold to an esteemed
cotemporacy," and the Chicago Post passes
out of existence, until ''long-felt want
brings about its resuscitation. We enter
tanned some apprehension of this unfortunate
result when the feminine conductors went to
enlarging their sheet Women trust to in
buttons; they feel things lin their bones. -"
Mrs. and Miss Willard looked with too much
hope on the bright side. They did not count
the cost before they began. 1t is time to
hug close by the shore. 1t is time to see
that no more sail Is 'pread than can be con-
veniently carried. They got on too much
canvass. Nevertheless, as we said in glow
ing tribute we recently paid them, they were
making good paper. 1t was pleasant and
readable. The women showed that they
could write heavy leaders. sprightly shorter
articles, and do the profound moralizlng as
well as the able bodied masculine persons
who were performing similar work on other
scissors with dexterity and judgment, and
the paste-pot was to them vessel OF capacity
for the preservation of ARTICLES calculated for
wanting a little of the element of verlhty.
The paper didn't appear to know that there
was high and lofty yearning to have news
of dog fights, and it cidn't seem to have
knowledge that such events ever occurred as
seductions and outrages. We cannot con-
ceive that the Post, under Its late manage
ment, would have printed all the letters it
could lay its hands on addressed to the unfor-
tunate victim in the late Stevens tragedy. 1t
is fair to Judge that here was the second mis-
take the ladies made.

Tho Crnns all Right.

ST. Paul Pioneer Press, July ID: The recent
heavy and continuous rains; concurring with
intervals Of hot, sultry weather and occasion
al high winds, have caused a good deal OF
anxiety as to the effect of these unfavorable
conditions upon the crops. To satisfy the
general demand for correct information on
this subject the Pioneer Press has this morn
ing collected by telegraph large number of
crop reports from some forty or fifty different
points in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin.
These who are keenly interested In this mat
ter will examine these dispatches in another
column, where they are printed in extenso.
Their general tenor will be seen to he that
the crops have not as yet materially suffered
from the storms; have benefited from them,
indeed, in most localities, the gram needing
rain. From few points in the southern
counties, and from some others up the river,
damage is reported on account of lodging,
but in general all injury from this source will
be repaired before harvest. On the other
hand, there is general freedom in this State
from apprehension on account of rust. In
Iowa, where the rains were less heavy, but
the weather warmer, grain is little lodged,
but rust is the most dangerous enemy.
