Shooting at Pleasanton.
Word has been received here of shoot
ing affair which occurred at an early hour
this morning at Pleasanton, in the eastern
end of the county. Richard Foley awak-
ened Dr. w. a. Hershiser and asked 10 De
treated for a bullet wound in the neck. He
said he had been shot while returning
home about o'clock, but refused to tell
where or how it had happened. although
he admitted that he knew who his assali-
ant was.
A hasty examination of the man showed
that he was seriously wounded and was
very weak from the loss of blood. The
ball only missed the jugular vein by half
an inch ana it is feared that 1t may prove
fatal. All efforts of the physician to locate
it by probing have failed. Foley is at his
fathers ranch on the edge of town. There
are .rumors to the effect that woman is at
the bottom of the affair.
Maggie Still Sick.
