On Thursday of last week Mr.. Afford X.
Mann was the victim Of one of the most
painful accidents we have ever heard Of
He was working in the shop with another
man. The latter had heated q sharp
pointed piece Of iron sparkling, red hot,
and turned quickly to the anvil to work it,
In turning, by some means Mr.. Manns
right arm, just below the elbow, was
struck by this sparkling spike of iron,
which penetrated, going nearly through.
DR.. Ducllet was sent for Immediately, and
dressed the wound, and Mr.. Mann is now
able to 60 about. He says it is surprising
how easily hot iron can penetrate the
flesh.

Each of a Pair Of Gamblers Murderer
and Victim.

CHICAGO. September 2o-During an ex-
citing personal encounter in crowded res
taurant saloon, between two noted gamblers
tonight, each fatally shot the other. The
contestants were, "Bulr' Haggerty and "Bad
Jimmy" Connorton. 1t was in one Of the es-
Establishments owned by ex-Chief of Police
McGarigle that the double tragedy occurred
The ex-chief became widely known by his
daring escape from Sheriff Mattson during
the "b0odler" prosecutions and the singular
was convicted of "boodling" about the time
with the affray on this evening. Haggerty
and Connorton had a preliminary alterca-
tion inWarnelPs saloon, in which Connorton
was terribly thrashed. Haggerty had
accused Connorton of attempted blackmail
and it was this charge which led to the fist
fight. "a chance meeting in McGarrigle's
place followed and the quarrel was renewed,
Connorton again getting the worst of the
fight. Suddenly he pulled a revolver and
fired at short range. The bullet penetrated
Haggerty'S stomach but the wounded man
drew his revolver and sent leaden missile
into the breast of C0nn0rton. The two
gamblers, wounded as they were, made
their way to the sidewalk where scores Of
people were passing. One or two scattering
shots were fired by each man before they
succumbed. ConnOrton was carried into a
drug store and Haggerty tumbled into cab
in vain endeavor to escape the police.
Both men were placed under arrest and doc
tors declare that neither have more than q
slim chance to recover
