corner of Main and Usage streets
Friday evening and asked Gordon to
cash a SIS check on the Third
National bank, made payable 10

and upon his representatiC n
that he had been working for Mayor
Stevens and the check was in pay

During the day a collector for d. W.

with a bill for cigars purchased, and,
in payment, turned over the Stevens
check to the collector. Yesterday
Mr.. Chaser sent a number of checks to

MALICIOUS SHOOTING.
A Young Lad Deliberately Goes
Cunning for an Elderly
Woman.

Mrs. Lucinda jenkins. a woman 81
years of age, who resides 10 a little
frame dwelling in the western part OF
the city, on Park avenue, was shot
yesterday afternoon by young lad
The sfOoting came about under
peculiar circumstances. Mrs. Jenkins
house is located in a little triangular
plot Of land bounded by Park avenue
and the tracks of the Missouri Pacific
railroad and the Lexington branch,
the base of the lot being on Park
avenue and the acute angle where the
two tracks separate. On this plot of
ground Mrs. jenkins h I'd a garden
and a melcn patch, which can be
seen from the track. The
melons hive attracted the
attention of a number Uf town boys,
and their frequent raids on the luci us
melons have always been frustrated
by watch dog, which was AWAY on
the alert for marauders. Last Sun
day two boys tried to steal some of
of the melons In broad daylight, but
were chased off the premises by the
dog. Yesterday they returned and
passed the house. Mr.. jenkins saw
them and went iutO the garden, osten-
sibly to gather tOmat. es but really to
let them know she was at home.
When the boys saw her they retraced
their steps along the Missouri Pacific
tracks until they mere d rsotly PFC

looked at her a moment or two End
then, s-epping part way down the
bank, and at distance of atout forty
feet, tok deliberate aim at Mrs.
jenkins with a revolver end fred.
The boy then took to his heels and
ran towards the city. The smaller of
the boys stood still for a half minute
as If rooted TO the spot with terror.
At the report of the revolver Mrs.
jenkins felt the ball strike her limb
below the knee, and raising her skirts
saw a STRAIN of blood flowing from
the wound. Turning to the terror
stricken boy she exclaimed, Look at
that" pointing to the wound, "you
have shot me and Twill have you
boys arrest, l." The lad saw bis DAM
ger, and fright lent speed to bis feet
and he also ran toward the city.
DIR. w. o. Dunlap was summoned
to attend to tie injured woman and
dressed the wound. The bullet en-
tered the calf of the right leg making
bad flesh wound. The
missile eviden'le struck the
bone and glanced around it
as it could not be located with the
probe.
Mr.. jenkins says the boys were
about IA or ID years of age. The
one who did the shooting was dressed
in light brown pants and wore a
stripped shirt. The younger wore
dark co!ored pants and jacket or coat
and both had light colored hats. The
police were notified and are on the
lookout for the lads.
