FIRED UPON BY GAMBLERS.
Two Men Shot at and One Wounded
by Skin Players.


Samuel NJ. Harper, of No. CO Tattnall
street, is carrying and ugly shot wound in
the feshy part of his left leg received day
or two ago. The ball from 3s-calibre
pistol was cut out by DIR. Jennings, and,
while Harper will be laid up for few days
from the wound, 1t is not serious.
The circumstances of the shooting were
detailed by Harper to a MORNING NEWS
reporter last night aud were corroborated
by G. X. Ladeveze. who witnessed the
shooting. The two men. as is their custom
on Sunday, were taking an afternoon
walk along the City and Suburban railway,
and when near clump of bushes
some fifty feet from the track
and about 800 yards from where the
Belt Line crosses it, they noticed
age from 10 70 35. The gamblers, who were
shooting craps, scattered, although Harper
and Ladeveze did not stop or attempt to
follow them. In fact, the two men say it is
no unusual sight ON Sunday to see the gam
blers playing skin or shooting craps, the
only difference being that it was a much
larger crowd on Sunday than is usual.
After walking a short distance down the
road Harper felt a singing sensation in his
right leg, and his first impression was that
a snake had struck him, and second, that
some one had hit him with a small rock, as he
heard something strike in the ditch along
the road. The wind was blowing in the
direction Of the thicket, but in a lull five
pistol shots were heard and the balls struck
near them. Harper asked Ladaveze to
examine his trousers, and it was found that
ball had pierced them. The men buried
back to the Belt Line as rapidly as Har-
per's wound would permit him to 60 and
took a car for the city for surgical aid.
Neither Harper nor Ladeveze recognized
any Of the gamblers. who it is thought sus-
pected the two men of being detectives.
Harper says that he and his friend have
regularly taken an afternoon walk in that
direction on Sundays. The matter was
brought to the attention of Solicitor Gen
eral Fraser yesterday, who will investigate
it with view to breaking up the gang which
violates the Jaws with impunity and uses
deadly weapons with such murderous in
tent. Harper is in the employ of the
Ludden 81 Bates music house and Ladaveze
is a Trainer in the employ of NJ. T. Taylor,
and both of them bear the reputation of
being industrious and orderly citizens.

avoid rusting; and hollow. it will readily
fill itself with either snow-like shaved ice
