AVENGEs HIS DAUGHTERS RUIN
One of the Mexican Band Shot by an
Exposition Gate Keeper.

EApOslJlOn Oabe- -hGGD6E.
NEW ORLEANS, May 16.-AbOut 4
O'clock this afternoon Rodolpho Rode
riguez, fourth cornet player in the Mexi-
can Band, was shot four times and fatally
wounded by John c. Golding, an exhi-
bition gate-keeper. The shooting occurred
just outside of the entrance to the expo
sitlon grounds, near the gate and close to
the Mexican barracks. 1t grew out of
attentions paid by the Mexican to
GOlding's daughter, employed at
one OF the booths at the expo
sition. It transpires that the girl
had absented herself from home, and
when questioned on the subject made
confession involving the Mexican. There
upon her father, after satisfying himself
of the identity Of the Mexican by ques-
tIoning him, demanded reparatiOn. This
being refused, GOlding opened fire, shoot
ing five times in all. Four of the bullets
took effect in the MeXican's arm, neck.
back and chest. Rodriguez is about 10
years old. The girl is about II and very
pretty. Golding was arrested while in the
act OF firing the Iirst shot in his pistol.
The whole affair was witnessed by a
number of Mexican members of the band,
TO whom ROderiguez's amour was well
known, yet not one made the slightest et-
fort TO save their companion. Rodriguez
is at the hospital in "a dying condition.
