LEGAL INTELLIGENCE

constantly complained of. Mention was made
a few DAYS since about their use on the block
between | and J, Eleventh and Twelfth
streets. by which horse was struck by a
bullet from oae of these weapons, causing a
runaway and damages to the amount of 800
or more. Also, on the same day, and near
the same place. q ball was sent crashing
through large plate-glass, and partially
buried itself in a walnut counter, inside the
building, after passing through the heavy
glass. 1t brt barely missed the head of
gentleman who was upon the walk at the
time, passing so near that he felt the air from
the ball upon his forehead. It would in all
probability have caused death if it had struck
him. Another ball from the same block
struck the walk on J street at the feet of a
woman who was passing, and glanced off
with great velocity. Last Friday some tame
pigeons were killed or I street by the same
means, and against this same block, which is
becoming notorious for these damages. The
owner of the pigeons shows lead ball or
buckshot which he took out of one of the
dead birds, which he states produced all the
appearance and effect of having been shot by
gun. Three large glass in the windows of
the east Superior Courtroom at the Court
house were broken Friday night by the same
class of shooting. A well-defneed feeling Of
alarm is becoming quite generally expressed
in regard to the use Of these silent instru-
ments of destruction.
