Daniel O'Leary, Who Was Shot BY
Watchman Lawrence, Dies
In the Hospital.
Paralysis Resulted From the In
jury Done to the Prison
er's Spine.
Had Arrested, Are All Now
behind the Bars.

Daniel O'Leary. the city prisoner who
was shot by WRtohman Quill Lawrence ON
Thursday morning while attempting to es-
cape f,om the chain gang, at Fifth and
Montana avenues. died at the Sisters hos
pital at three o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Death resulted from paralysis, the effect OF
injury to the spinal column, through which
this ball passed. O'Leary passed restless
night. but was conscious most of the time.
During yesterday morning he was
somewhat delirious and about noon ii be-
camo apparent that his condition grow
alarming. From then on hs was
rapidly worse and hs died about thrss
O'Clock in tho afternoon. DR.. James j.
Macdonald, who had attended OLsary,
made search for the bullet after death.
He found that il had passed through one Of
the vsrtebrae Of the nook, missing the
spinal cord, however, and gone forward,
where it lay against the iugular vein and
the carotid artery. The ball was slightly
mashed By contact with the bone. Par
alysis resulted from the shock to the
spinal column.
Coroner Rookman was notified Of
O'Leary's death and summoned the follow
ing jury: e. l.. Kellogg, o. N. Rhodes,
Lewis Davis, I. II. Bowie, Sam Alexander
and II. @. Sultzsr. After viewing the body
the jury adjourned to meet this afternoon.
Lawrence gave himself up and was placed
under arrest by the police when he
brought the chain gang in from their work.
He expresses great regret at the fatal
result Of his shot.
Before he became delirious O'Leary told
the sisters at the hospital that he was a
native Of Chicago and 25 years Of age. He
had worked in the Great Northsrn's Pacific
extension. He said he had q widowed
mother in Canada. When asked why he
had tried to escape he said it was because
he didn't care to be disgraoed by working
on the chain gang.
The police say that when O'Leary was
arrested the last time he was suspected of
completely with the man who got sixty
days sentence for taking shoes from in
front of Main street store. The two had
been together that day. Later Alderman
Henry Klein reported the loss of an over
coat that WAS taken from in front Of his
place of business. The police laid this to
OLeary, but could not get any proof at the
time. For that reason he was sent up as
d vagrant. Policeman Vanasse found the
missing coat last night. II was in room
of a lodging house at Main and Wall streets,
concealed under mattrass. It was ascer-
tained that O'Leary had engaged that room
just before his arrest, and put his nano on
the register. After engaging the room he
had gone out and been arrested.

A Successful Entertain men

A Successful Entertainments
The first of a series of entertainments to
70 given by the Cakes Street M. E. church,
took place on Thursday evening last and
was success, even beyond the expectation
of the most sanguine. The eneraetic young
people of Oalkes street engaged the Original
Peak sisters, OF ST. Paul's M. II. church, to
favor them with their very humorous ex-
hibition which alone was worth tho price
Of a season ticket. Mrs. Hopkins deserves
great credit for the artistic manner in
parts, parts as @ tbs pa',s programme was arranged v
under her direction. Mr.. A. B Avery rected
The Chariot Race, and Miss Mabel Rollins
gave Darins Green, Miss Clara OConnor
also recited A Sunset. in an admirable
manner. VIM. Workman gave a solo. The
next in the course will be drama, The
Beauty of Purity, which will occur New
Years cve Dec. 81.

To The INDEPENDENT: Some Of the trans
actions Of our schoolboard are, to say the
least, of peculiar character, and certainly
need explanation. am reliably informed
that superintendent of construction of
school buildings is employed at a salary Of
$3.50 per month which is supposed to be
good pay for the services required, and
should entitle the board to his entire time
in the capacity for which he is employed.
The board have had occasion recently to
require plans for buildings in the First and
Seventh wa ds and for additions to other
buildings, but instead of allowing parties
who have requested the privilege of fur
nishing plans and estimates to do so, the
board have ignored snch requests and in
structed their superintendent to prepare
the plans and specifications and superin-
terations. which. ordinarily, would be all
right if this work were done as part of his
duty as superintendent for the school
board, but the fact develops that the board
allow him five per cent. upon the cost of
such buildings in addition to his salary,
and the question naturally arises, is it fair
or Just to the school district or to those
architects and superintendents who have a
right to compete for such work, and is it
not paying double salary to one man, and
if SO, why is it done? Will theS school
board please rise and explain? OF course,
if the school board is a close corporation
and run in the interest of few pets, pre-
sumo that we have no right to object and

Mr.. Edmund BocltIng One Of tho oldest'in
the State.
It may not be generally known that
Mr.. Emund Booking, who recently ac-
quired possession Of the well-known
drug store at the corner OF Twelfth and
Chaplinc streets, is the Oldest druggist
in the State, having been almost con
tinuously engaged in pharmacy since
1852. Mr.. Booking came to Wheeling
in 1850, and started in MS a clerk in the
drug store OF Brentlinger d Armstrong,
and, after q period Of five years, en-
gagged in business for himself. Mr..
Booking was one OF the Commissioners
OF Pharmacy for two terms under Gov
enor Jackson. Two of the oldest drug
gists in the State at that time were Sam
uel LHughlin and DR.. Schuckhard, both
OF whom have long since passed away.
Mr.. Booking, with his long and varied
experience, is well qualified to run a
tirst.class drug store, thoroughly equip
ped with all the needs of the business,
and containing a prescription depart
ment second to none. The stock is
thoroughly replenished with new and
fresh goods, and all prescriptions will
be handled with care and accuracy. Mr..
Booking, with his acquired years Of
knowledge and experience, makes this
store n rare opportunity for patrons.
