Com m itting the Crime.

Buffalo, Jan. 1S.-Sergeant Timothy
Cautlin of the Seventh precinct was
shot and killed by Patrolman Michael
Sammon yesterday because he found
the latter off his beat and intended to
report him therefor. Sammon had en-
tered malt house where he remained
for more than fifteen minutes. Serge
ant Cantlin had arrived on Sammon's
beat and finding him absent began .
search for him. When he saw him
emerge from the malt house he sus-
pended him and ordered him to the
station house Sammon pleaded to bs
excused, but Cantlin said: II can't do
it. You'll have to go to the station
house and SEQ the captain about it."
"Tnke that then" said Sammon, who
had quietly drawn his revolver and
leveling the weapon at Cantlin he
fred a shot into his right side, tho
bullet lodging in the spine. Cantlin
fell and Sammon walked to the station
house which he entered, saying he
wanted to get warm. Lighting his
pipe he chstted for some time with the
reserve men and then started out
again. As he was leaving the station
house Patrolman Mcclure entered and
laying his hand on Sammon's shoulder
said: You are under arrest for shoot
ing Sergeant Cantlin." Sampon made
no reply, but filed his pipe again and
was locked up. Cantlin lay where he
fell for nearly half an hour, but did not
lose conciousness. Taking his whistle
from his pocket he blew alarms until
he attracted the attention of Patrol
man Mcclure to whom he told the
facts of the shooting.

ANTI.SMOKERS.
Cony High School Scholars Making Move
Against the Pernicious Weed.

1t will be remembered by those who
attended the meeting of the Federation OF
Womens Clabs, held, last fall, at the
State House. how much attention was
given the forming of clubs in schools, of
those who proposed to do no smoking at
any rate until they had become of age.
1t was noticeable that many of the in
stitutions throughout the State had gone
into the work with deep interest, the
scholars themselves in many cases taking
the reins in their own hands.
Superintendent Branard has instituted
club of this kind, and it has met WITH
much favor If the scholars are to smoke
at all, they propose to wait until they
get their development, and when that
time shall come, they can settle the ques
ton, and extend the good work.
