FATAL ACCIDENT With 4 PISTOL
It Results in the Death of Fred
G. GIuCk.
He Was Acting as Scorer for Friends
When the Pistol Was Accident-
ally Discharged.

Fred c. Gluck, who was accidentally
shot on Friday afternoon at his wayside
inn near the County Hospital, died on
Saturday morning.
Inc circumstances surrounding the
case make il one of unusual sadness.
GIuck had only the day before discharged
! the mortgage on his place, and with his
wife and four children had been rejoicing
that their little home was free from debt.
But ther joy was soon turned to grief.
On Friday afternoon Major Adolph
Scheld and his friend Ed Nicolaus drove
out into the country to indulge in pistol
practice. They stopped at Gluck's place.
and on his invitation concluded to do
their practicing there. he to act as scorer.
Nhen Major Scheld raised his weapon
to shoot it hung fire. He lowered it and
raised the hammer to see what was
wrong. In doing SO the hammer slipped
and the pistol was discharged. Gluck
was leaning on the fence quite distance
from the target, and the bullet struck
him in the right side.
The injured man cried out that he was
shot, and his friends ran to his assistance.
lie was taken into the house and DR..
COOK summoned from the County Hos
pItaI In the meantime his wife and
little ones surrounded him, and their
grief was pItiable to behold. Gluck did
not lose consciousness for several hours.
and repeatedly stated that the shooting
was purely accidental, and exonerated
/ Major Scheld from all blame.
IL was found that the bullet had frac-
tured the sixth rib on The right side.
pierced the lung and broken the seventh
rib on the left side. The lead was re-
moved by DR.. Cook
Naturally Messrs. Scheld and Nicolaus
are greatly distressed over the un fortunate
occurrence. Both were acQuaintauces
and friends of Mr.. Gluck, aud deeply de-
pIore the sad result Of their target prac-
tlce. 1t does not appear that Scheld was
at all careless in the handling OF his
weapon, the slipping Of the hammer be-
ing one OF those accidents tkat happen
occasionally TO the most expert handlers
of firearms

TWO AWFULLY NICE HIGHW AYMEN.
They Politely Held Up ScheId's Brew:
cry Last Night,
Robbed Everyone in the Place. and
Then Drove Away in the Di-
rectfon of Brighton.

At 1920 o'clock last night two masked
men, wearing linen busters, walked into
the saloon in connection with Scheld's
| brewery at Twenty-eighth and M
streets, and while one kept the crowd
covered with pistol the other, after
robbing the till, deliberately strolled
over to card table and politely requested
the players to rise and "dish up' what
money they had, upon their persons
! Each player was then searched in turn,
Two of them-Henry Dean and a man
known as "Cockney George"-were COM
PEELED to donate So each. all the money
IN their pockets. The robbers also got
$40 from the money till.
Satisfied that they had obtained all the
money possible, they politely bade
good night to the occupants of the
place, walked out to the street, entered
cart and drove off up NJ street toward
the outskirts of the city. They seemed
not to exhibit particle of uneasiness or
fear of pursuit, and were in sight for
over ten minutes after leaving the
saloon.
Word was Immediately telephoned to
the police station and Sheriff7a Office,
and posse of officers were sent in pur-
suit. Notice was also forwarded to
Brighton to head the men off, and there
is every probability that their capture
will be effected.
1t is not unlikely that they are the
men who attempted to rob the overland
train on Saturday night, as they were
dressed just as the train robbers were

going out the upper Stockton Road, be-

The Board Of Officers Considering the
subject of an Encampment.
At meeting of the Board of Officers of
the Second Infantry Regiment, n. G. c.,
held in this city last Friday evening, the
proposition to hold an encampment this
summer was freely discussed.
The camp allowance for the regiment
was not used last year on account of the
railroad strike, and the money stands to
the credit of the regiment. 1t must be
used. however, before the expiration of
the present fiscal year. and, such being
the case, the regiment, if it is going into
camp, will have to do SO between now
and July 1st.
IL the allowance be not utilized for
camp purposes it will revert to the State,
and no camp could then be held for two
years, or until the next meeting of the
Legislature, when money would have to
be appropriated for encampments to be
held in 1897 and 1898.
Colonel j. W. Guthrie was appointed
to look into the matter and to report TO
the board the result of his investigation.
