days for drunkenness. She was found be-
fore her husbands cobbler shop on Elm
street early Christmas morning shortly
after midnight. She was half-dressed and
her face was covered with blood. Her
groans had attracted a crowd of men,
among them Officers Williams and Cowles.
She said Macklin had kicked her in the
face and turned her out of doors in the
cold. Macklin was caught by bystsnder
as he attempted to get away. The troubles
of this pair have often been aired in court
Mrs. Macklin has sued her husband for
non.support several times and he has been
put under bond to give her So week
for her support. In one of their quarrels
about two years ago the woman's leg was
broken. Both were taken to the police
station, but the only charge preferred was
one of drunkenness against the woman.
The continued case against Patrick Nolan
| for assaulting Michael Cooney was taken
| up yesterday and Judge Thompson SEN
fenced Nolan to 40 days in jail. Nolan ap-
pealed to the January term of the com

George Och, n mouIder who Lives NJ
104 Hamilton street, BADLY wound
ed by John McDermott, Crazcd
with Drink, In -Euerless Saloon
The Wound Not Fatal.
Several men were drinking about the
bar of the saloon of William Euerle, at 104
Hamilton street, late yesterday afternoon,
when John McDermott, man thirty Ave
years of age, who lives at Al Green street,
came in the door. McDermott was evil
IDENTIFY under the influence of liquor, but
no especial notice was taken of him at
first. He went up to the bar and ordered
several drinks. When he had disposed Of
these in the usual way he was requested
by the bartender to pay for them, but he
refused. Euerle himself asked the man to
pay for his drinks and, upon 9 second re-
fusal, Euerle forcibly elected McDermott
through the door.
McDermott stood outside few minutes
and then reeled back in through the door.
As he entered, George Och, a molder who
lives at 106 Hamilton street, and Fred
Wheeler stood near the bar. Wheeler saw
that McDermott held 32-caliber revolver
IL LIB uhuu, u6lQ COWarQS the HOOP and
half concealed behind him.
"Be careful" cried Wheeler. ssWhat
are you going to dor
Before anyone said another word, Nc
Dermott raised his revolver and fred. He
evidently intended the bullet for Euerle,
who stood behind the bar, but it struck
Och in the abdomen. The wounded man
uttered groan and fell to the floor.
A period of confusion followed. None
of the dozen frequenters of the place who
had witnessed the affair knew whom the
half crazed man would fire at next.
Word was soon sent to the precinct.
Ex-Alderman Gilhuly and Officers Far
place. They seized McDermott, who had
made no attempt to leave the saloon, and
disarmed him. Drs. Park and Cahill were
telephoned for and the wounded man was
taken to his home, few steps away. Here
the doctors made an examination of the
wound. They found the bullet had entered
the abdomen upon the right side and had
crossed the body to the left side, where it
was extracted. The wound was bad
one, but DR.. Park stated last night that
the wounded man will probably recover if
Inflammation does not set in.
McDermott was taken to the precinct,
but was not released on bonds. He was
crazy drunk at the time of the shooting,
but sobered remarkably when taken in
custody by the officers. He acknowledged
having shot Och, but gave no explanation
of the shooting further than to say that
he did not know what he was doing.
A Broken Kneepan.
A young man named Courtney, of 387
Oak street, was taken to the hospital yes
terday afternoon suffering from broken
