SHOT IN THE ARM
Mrs. DR.. Grain Meets a Midnight
Burglar.
Surprised at His Work, He Shoots Her
in the Left Arm-Serious Results
May Follow.

Mrs. DR.. Grain, who resides at IS South
Third East street. was shot in the arm by a
burglar at 12:45 this morning, and it is
quite probable that very serious results
may follow. At about that hour the lady
was awakened by noise in the parlor.
Arising, she pushed aside the hanging cur
tain separating the parlor from the bed
room, and just as she did so, she ran against
man. No sooner had she done so when
she heard the report of pistol
and felt .stinging sensation in her
left arm. She gave cry for help, when
the burglar vanished. The house is of two
Stories and no one save Mrs. Grain was
sleeping on the lower floor When help
arrived, the fellow had fed. An examina-
ton OF the front door showed that the bur-
glar had turned the key, showed it out and
then turned the bolt.
DR.. Pinkerton was summoned and an
examination proved that the wound was
very serious in its nature. The ball had
shattered the bone, and there was every
evidence that when the shot was fired.
the pistol must have been pressed close up
against the arm, as the clothing was
powder marked, and the wound made in
dicated this. DR.. Pinkerton extracted the
ball, which was of % calibre, and at ;
O'Clock this morning the lady was resting
rs quietly as possible. DR.. Grain, who has
been i'll for some time, is now in the east.
but is on his way home and is due here
almost any day.

LYNCH is HELD.
The Embezzler Will Await the
Action of the Grand Jury.
Charles Thiede Again in the Tolls on the
Charge Of Assault and
Battery.

Commissioner Greenman rendered his
opinion in the John Lynch emoezzlemeni
case yesterday morning at 10 O'Clock and
held the defendant to await the action OF
the grand jury. His bonds were placed al
s., 900, which the defense claimed was toe
high, but the court was firm and Lynch was
taken to the penitentiary, having failed tc
obtain bondsmen.
Charles Thiede was arrested at Murray
yesterday morning, being charged with an
assault and battery committed upon the
person OF man named Stryker. The court
set his case for Monday.
The commissioner also had some civil
business of but little Importance, besides
uniting in marriage for veal or woe happy
young couple. The high contracting parties
evidently intended to surprise their friends,
rs the blushinR bride with a charming
smile begged the Judge not to tell the re-
porters their names, and that worthy limb
of the law could not withstand the appeal,
and did as she desired. Therefore the
newspaper boys were not in it. The court
even refused to tell whether or not he
kissed the young bride.

IT is IN THE AIR,
Another Desperate Man Attempts
to Commit Suicide.
This Time 1t is John Stevenson, Of Park
City, Patient in st. Mary's
Hospital.

The suicide mania seems to gain ground
each day, the latest would-be taker of his
own life being John Stevenson, of Park
City. Stevenson came down from the
Park on April 8, and entered the ST.
Mary's hospital, having sustained frac-
ture of the leg. Since that time, he has
lain upon his cot in the general ward and
at certain periods became respondent and
seemed DESTROYS Of committing suicide. He
was carefully watched and gradually
seemed to regain his spirits.
Yesterday afternoon, the patients in the
large room were enjoying themselves by
talking together in one corner, when they
were startled to hear curious sounds from
Stevenson's part of the ward. The man
had in some manner secured knife, and
when the others bad turned their backs,
began to hack at his throat. The attend
ants rushed upon him and took away the
sharp instrument. The wounds proved to
be not very serious and Stevenson will
soon be all right again. He was evidently
made Respondent through his long confine-
m0ut.

Narrow Escana From Death.

The Rio Grande Western will have
another small-sized damage suit on its
hands, as the result of an accident yester-
day, by which valuable horse was killed
and the driver came nearly flying to the
shore beyond. A young man named Bert
Dewoodey was driving Hewlett Bros,
soda water wagon; the vehicleowas drawn
by two large fine horses, and was crossing
the Rio Grande Western track on Third
North, when train came dashing along
at the rate of some say twenty-five miles
an hour, and the next moment there was a
crash, and the vehicle was thrown con-
siderable distance, being badly damaged.
One of the horses was struck by the engine
and almost instantly killed. 1t is CLAIMED
that the engineer failed to give any warn
ing of the approach of the train and there
can be no doubt but he was running at a
much faster speed than the law prescribes.
Several complaints of reckless running on
this road within the city limits have here
tofore been made

The Wedding of Mr.. Nathan Desky and Miss

AT o'clock last evening MIR. Nathan
Desky and Miss Ray Metz were united in
the holy bonds of matrimony, the ceremony
being performed by Rev. Elkin AS the
bride, leaning on her fathers arm, entered
the room in which the ceremony was to be
held she presented picture Of loneliness
which those who had the good fortune to
witness will remember for many days to
come. In an adjoining room. the exquisite
strains Of Mendelssohn's wedding march
gave notice that in few more moments
Hymen would Irvine his bonds once more
around another couple and start them upon
the journey OF matrimony through life.
About fifty friends and relatives sat down
to the wedding supper, which lasted from
s o'clock until nearly o'clock in the morn
ing, considerable time between the courses
being taken up by the reading OF cougrat-
ulatory kilograms frol.i many cities east
and west.
The bride is the daughter of Mr.. Marcus

of Brown Bros, of San Francisco while
the groom has lately sertied here from
Michigan and is engaged in the clothing
business in this city. Aside from the nu-
merous presents bestowed upon the young

The Utah Central.

From very reliable source we learn
this week that the work of pushing the
Utah Central extension will be resumed
about the 18th of June, if not earlier. We
understand Interpretations are now being
made to get the work started. The road is
completed nearly to the Ontario drain tun-
mel, and if there was no other inducement
to extend it than the revenue to be derived
from freight on Glencoe ore, that alone
should be enough to build it TO the Provo
river. AS the Glencoe will commence ship
ping concentrates in July, it is quite likely
that the Utah Central will have its line
completed to the nearest point to the mine.
