Has He Absconded?

A young man, who was for some time
collection clerk for a large Commercial
street house, is said to have gone on a
trip to the tropics and will not return.
1t seems, so the story goes, that the young
man went away, ostensibly on vacation,
and after his departure the young man
who collected the firms bills in his place
was met by receipted accounts from their
supposed debtors. About 5000, some
days ago, was the amount said to have
been improperly collected, with new de-
velopments daily. The firm declines to
say anything about the matter.

MIssouLA, June s.-Notwithstanding
the reports Of n general depression in

lace comes to the front with well timed
regularity. with o sensational story that
bids fair to keep this interesting town well

to the Missouiian to-iayis its latest con.
tribution to the world Of crime: Lena
Wellington, q young and handsome mu-
latto girl, employed In laundry q this
place, early this morning shot and NOR
tally wounded q colorcd man named John
Brown, firing into him five shots from q
revolver in rapid succession, from the
effects OF which he can not re-
cover. Tho trouble, as stated by
those who know, originated through the
refusal OF Brown to marry the girl after
placing her in an enciente condition, hav-
ing scduced her under promise Of mar.
riage. Brown Was preparing to leave the
city, and arose early this morning in time
to take the o'clock train to Spokane.
The girl got wind Of the contemplated
flight of the dusky leceiver. and secretinR
herself IN An alley through which he had
to pass, awaited his coming. He
som made his appearance, and without
word of warning the betrayed and now
infuriated woman opened fire on him with
the result stated. Every ball took effect
each one striking vital part Of the body,
and II is singular circumstance that the
victim was not killed instantly. At this
hour he is slowly dying and his expiration
is but question Of few moments. The
girl surrendered herself Immediately ia
the authorities. though it Is not expected
that she will he severely prosecuted, a,
all tho circumstances connected with the
affair shows the act to have been at least
morally justifiable.
