LEWIS WEITZEL
His Remarkable Feat Of Loading His Gu
Whilo Runnin-,

Ills IAemark8D!e Feat or Loading His Gun
Whtlo Running.
Lewis Weitzel was the Daniel Boone
of Virginia, a man the story of whose
exploits sounds to-day like some ex-
travagant romance. At seventeen he
had no equal among the settlers as
marksman, and was especially expert
in loading his rifle while running.
When he was nineteen years old he
was suddenly set upon by 4 band of
about forty Indians He sprang away
from them at full speed, and four of
the fleetest of them dropped their guns
and started in pursuit. He increased
his lead from few feet to several
yards, but after running about half a
mile he became aware that the fore
most Indian had commenced gaining
upon him. Nearer and nearer he came,
and Weitzel began to fear that he
would throw his tomahawk.
While running. Weitzel had loaded
his gun. Now he wheeled suddenly,
and shot the Indian dead in his track.
Instantly the three other Indians gave
4 loud yell, and sprang forward at full
speed. The white mans gun was
empty, and he could do them no harm
Weitzel slackened his pace little,
reloaded his gun, and then resumed
his race. AT the end of another half
mile the second Indian came up. and
Weitzel turned to shoot To his dis
gust, he found the fellow close upon
his heels, SO close, indeed, that he
seized the barrel of the gun with both
hands.
The struggle was brief The savage
threw Weitzel to the ground, but at
that critical instant Weitzel jerl1ed the
piece from the Indians grasp, placed
the muZzle against his breast, and
fred. The Indian groaned and fell
dead.
Meanwhile the two others were hast
ening UP. Weitzel, still running,
charged his gun once more, and at
good opportunity faced about and
raised it to shoot The Indians lodged
behind trees. Weitzel resumed his
flight, and his pursuers again took
after him. They ran thus for two or
three miles, till Weitzel, thoroughly
exasperated, as his biographer SAYS,
turned and fred SO suddenly as to hit
one of the Indiuns before he could get
under cover.
AS he fell the other man shrieked,
and Weitzel, out of breath as he was,
burst out laughing as he heard him say,
No catch dat man! Him gun always
loaded"
The chase was over, and in a few
hours Weitzel was at home recounting
his observation-disclosures Compa nion.

SHOT DOWN.
Quo Man Dead and Three Serious
1y Wounded.
THE WORK OF WARD HEELERS.
A Tragedy Occurs Mt Troy. n. Y, In Trying
to Run In a Gang OF Repeatcrs
During the City Elec-
tiOn.

TRor, N. Y, March GA mayor was
| elected in this city yesterday, but the
! record of the election is spotted with
blood and scenes such as the oldest
resident in Troy has no recollection.
In darkened room in a family resi-
dence lies the body of Robert Ross,
who left his home yesterday morning
to aid in the election of candidate
that the republican party had indorsed.
In room in the same house lies his
brother William, perhaps mortally
wounded. In another part of the city
lies wounded a notorious tough and
ward-heeler, Pat Shea, and still in an
other part of the city is John McGough,
! who received a bullet and is seriously
injured.
Among the watchers at the Twelfth
ward First precinct polling place was
Robert Ross and his brother William,
both being there in the interest of the
republican party. There was also a
well known character named Pat Shea.
About 1:3O o'clock a gang of at least
fifteen strangers stood waiting to vote
while men whose names were on the
poll list, both democrats and republic
ans, were crowded away. Bobert Ross
objected to this and had words with
Pat Shea
The story told by the surviving Ross
is that Shea was the man who killed
Robert Ross. They say the trouble be-
gan in the polling booth where crowd
of repeaters headed by jeremiah Cleary
and Shea attempted to vote. When
the vote was challenged the men went
outside and Immediately started an ar
gument with the Ross boys Suddenly
the crowd surged forward and in an
instant revolvers were drawn and shots
fired. Robert Ross fell to the roadway
and his brother William cried, I'm
shot" Then the firing ceased as sud-
denly as it had begun.
William Ross was shot in the neck
just below the base of the brain and
will probably die. His brother died
almost instantly. John McGough is
dangerously wounded, while Shea's
wound is not considered serious.
John Ross said: II did not fire a
pistol. 1t was murder deliberate MUIR
der, and it was premeditatcd Only
about an hour and half before this
man Shea struck my brother full in the
face. 1 dragged William away and
told him to take the blow and say moth
ing; the blow would not hurt him. l
did not think at the time they would
use their guns"
Mayor Whelan said: 'It is only
the natural result of the Murphy heel
ers to carry the election by fair means
or foul. 1t is a stain on this city,
Senator Edward Murphy was busy
all afternoon attending to the delega-
tions of cuff and collar workers who
came to talk about the Wilson bill, but
he found the time to say: "It is most
affair and 1 am greatly
grievcd at it."

IT is very probable that the govern.
nent will soon transfer to the Sons Of
the American Revolution the privilege
OF maintaining the beacon light on the
statue of Liberty in New York harbor.
1t is said that already the statue shows
alarming signs of dissolution. The
thin veneer of copper, of which the
statue is made, is already rusted
through in many places SO that one can
readily see to ascend the stairs without
artificial light 1t is not believed that
with the excellent care the lighthouse
board has bestowed upon the statue it
can hardly last more than ten or fifteen
years longer.

TRAIN BANDITS AT WORK,
An Express on the Mobile 8 Ohio Held Up
Near St. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, March 7.-Last night
about o'clock the Mobile & Ohio train
which left here at S:35 o'clock was held
up by three robbers at Forest Lawn,
ILL.,, about four miles from East St.
Louis. This is the third time within
the past six months that this road has
suffered from robbers at this point
The agent of the Southern Express
Co. in st. Louis is j. II. Waters, but he
is out of the city and could not, there
fore, be seen. A friend of his, however,
said he did not think very much was
taken by the robbers, for he had been
told by Mr.. Waters that the train
hardly ever carried any valuables 1t
has been attacked by robbers too often
to allow the carrying of anything
tempting to that class of people, he
said
