of herself when her husband is not at

was seen by both Mrs. Delgado and
Miss Lizzie Midget, a visiting young
lady from Dallas.
Last night at about the same hour
between Ii and ~ o'0lock-he came to
the same window. When first seen Ivy
Mrs. Delgado he was standing near the
street, but soon came nearer to the
house. Mrs. DelgadO and Miss Midget
were together in u room almost Ozark,
and could plainly see the intruder,
upon whom the street lights We're
shining. When the villain came dl-
rectly in front of the window Mrs
Delgado seized a small pistol she keeps
for protection and hastily fired, taking
dead aim The ball tore a large hole
In the curtain and pane and from APP
pearances narrowly missed the mark.
Word was dispatched to Mr. Delgado
who came quickly, The police were
notified. and Officer Ferguson, AS
sistant Marshal Matkin and the re-
porter made an exhaustive search of
the premises TO see whether the man
could be seen.
Mrs. Delgado was perfectly cool but
Miss Midget, who is a very attractive
looking young lady, was badly fright
ened and had not gotten over her scare
when the officers left Miss Midget

THE CLEAR ToRx DAMS.
superintendent Chiles Pleased with
Their Location.

Superintendent Chiles of the city
waterworSs paid his first visit yester-
day to the Clear Fork dams, upon
which the work of construction has
been begun. He is well pleased with
the location of the dams and with the
progress of the work under the super
intendance of Mr.. j. w, Reilly. The
ground is being cleared for all the
dams and the excavations are being
made at one Of them for the abut-
ments and main walls. There has been
some difficulty In securing the right Of
way for one Of the dams, but It Is
thought that his matter is about
settled.
The first dam Will be located about
three-quarters of mile above the
present wooden one; the second will
be about two miles above the first and
tie third about two miles above the
second.
1t is expected to have the work far
enough completed in thirty days to
be safe from any trouble on account
OF high water. The dams will all be
finished within ninety days II the work
progresses to the end as satisfactorily
as 1t has started off.
