SHOT LIKE A DOG.


At2 o'clock Friday morning Chas.
Wear, son of John 6. Wear, judge of
the Twenty-third judicial circuit of
Missouri, shot Ed. Lael on the depot
platform in Poplar Bluff. The ball
entered the left temple and lodged in
the brain. Lael fell on the platform
and was taken to his home, where he
lay in y tomatoes condition until 6
o'clock yesterday morning, when he
breathed his Last Wear had been
about the saloons during the night
and at one of them be and Lael had
some sharp worde. Wear had . cane
or crutch, with which be raped Lael,
falf pl.yfully, on the shins, and out
of which grew the personal encounter.
When La.l resented his familiarity,
quite . squabble ensued, whereupon
Lael ran away from him, after both
had been down in the street.
Lael was employed by the St. Louis,
Iron Mountain and Southern railroad
company Is caller and Was on duty
last night. He ran into one of the
saloons, where Wear pursued him,
thence to the compsnys yards in the
lower part Of town. where, for . time,
he escaped from Wear. In the en-
counter he lost his hat in the street
and requested some Of the employees
70 20 back with him to get it, which
they consented 10 do. In the mean
time Wear went about the saloons
and depot. Spying Lael on the plat
form Of the passenger depot he ap.
preached him, and quickly drawing
. revolver leveled it at Laels head
and fired. Two or three of LAels
friends were near him ct the time, but
q Wear was not carrying any cane or
crutch they had no idea that any &c.
rions trouble would result. Lael threw
up his hand to ward of the weapon,
but was too late. He fell MORALLY
wounded.
These are the facts substantially -
brought out BY the coroner's inquest,
held yesterday. Lael was about 81
years Of age, inoHensive, and bore o.
good reputation. He was married les
than Q year, and his widow. who is in
q delicate condition, Is almost crushed
over the tragedy. Wear, who is in
jail, waived examination.
