HOLD-UP NAN IS SHOT.
Chicago Bartender Who Would
Not Be Robbed.
ORDERED TO THROW UP HIS HANDS

Instead OF Doing So He Opens Fire on
Three Men Who Attempted to Rob The
Saloon, Fatally wounding One of Then
The Brave Defender Gets n Bullet In
His Hand-An the Robbers succeed in
Making Their Escape.
Chicago, Feb. 5.-Three would-be rob-
| bers met with bullets when they tried
| 10 Rush street. Thursday morning A
battle with revolvers took place with
Il. j. Preston, the bartender, in which
one of the robbers was wounded, prob
ably fatally, while the bartender him
self received a slight wound in the
hand. The criminals managed to es-
cape. No arrests have yet been made.
1t happened at $40 o'clock in the morn
ing. Bartender Preston had just opened
up the saloon for the day. He was en-
gagged In rubbing up the glasses and
polishing the brass along the bar, when
three men entered and stepped up as
If to order a drink.
Good morning gentlemen" said
Preston. What will you have?"
Throw up your hands!" said one of
them, instead of replying to the ques-
ton, and all three presented revolvers.
Fired at the Nearest Man.
Quick as a flash Preston drew a re-
volver from his pocket and fired at the
man nearest him. His aim was bad.
The shot was returned with interest.
Crash! Crash! went the bullets into the
mirror back of the bar as the thugs
mi Of 40 ,1., olrx \, o,.t.. ..l..,.
One of the bullets hit Preston in the
right hand, but he managed to shoot a
last time as the men were running out
of t1e door. This time the bullet took
effect
The fleeing trio started toward Mich
igan street AS they reached the con-
ner of the alley by the saloon one of
them fell. Preston's last shot had
struck him in the head. At this point
William McDermott, Waterman for
the Chicago and Northwestern road,
came running up. He had heard the
shooting.
Said lie Was Done For.
What's the matter?' inquired he of
the wounded man.
For Gods sake / am done for" was
the reply. Send for the ambulance"
McDermott stepped into the saloon
to get somebody to telephone. He came
out a moment later to find the man ]
gone. His companions had returned
and carried him down the allev to
Dearborn avenue. There 1t is supposed
they must have taken a conveyance
of some kind - cnraped.
The wounded - hat was found
where he had lain. The blood which
stained it and the location of the bull
let hole led to the belief that the in
jury was serious. The East Chicago
Avenue police were notified. and Lieu
tenant Laughran detailed several off,
GERS on the case. The criminals have
not yet been caught.

HUNTING PERUVIAN GAME.
An Englishman's Account of His Fir
Sport In the Highlands.

An Englishman's Account of His Fine
Sport In the Highlands.
Hunting in the highlands of Peru is a
very enjoyable if little known sport, ao
cording to an Englishman "who spent
some days hunting from 10, 900 to 49,
600 feet above the sea on grassy plains
or in valleys surrounded by high noun
tains. F" There is considerable small
game-snipe, ducks, Gull Gull Ga kind Of
Grouse) and quivio Ga kind of guinea
fowD-but the game sportsman out
for day or two seeks is vicuna and al
paca. The vicuna is the wild llama and
is shy animal with great vitality, re
curing neck or shoulder shots to kill.
The alpaca is the mountain vicuna, liv-
ing on the coarse and scanty forage of
its home region. It's wool is foot long,
but so curly and fine that it fits to its
body like darky's hair. Both are relat-
ed closely TO the guanaco of the Pata-
gonia deserts, which sometimes wanders
into the uplands of Peru.
The Englishman carried q 44-4O
American rife and 16 gauge shotgun
for small game.
Entering large pampa, he writes,
1--WE sighted herd of vicuna We tried
to ride around them, but they made off,
passing Ashmore at about 200 yards.
Lying down. he opened fire, and a fine
specimen rolled over. We cleaned it,
loaded it on to a pack mule and rode ON,
soon striking another herd of seven,
which at once made off, but my second
shot at l40 yards dropped one dead. This
we took, and soon after bagged two
brace of culi-culi. -
That night the hunters rolled up in
their blankets ON the mud floor of a hut.
Hammocks strung from post to post
would have been better. Next day, after
q restful night, they began to shoot the
valley adjacent to Caraguiri. Some of
the writer's bullets hit two vicuna at
1870 yards, and some of the others hit the
valley. The dead animals were loaded
on the pack mules, and after going over
the summit of an Is, 900 foot mountain
the hunters had the rare good fortune
for that region of jumping seven guiana
CO, which ran too fast for the mules the
men rode and struck gait across the
pampa djscouraging to the hunters.
"But leaping from my mule" says
the writer, "and sighting my rife at
400 yards, dropped bullet ahead Of
them, and the bunch of dust scared
them to standstill. then pumped
the remaining nine bullets into the
herd, and two fell dead.''
A 1856 rife would have been better
Co., T. On
still better, but no matter, the guanacos
were killed. One was 45 inches high at
the shoulder and weighed 40 pounds
dressed The other was 80 inches high
and weighed 70 pounds dressed.
The total bag was two guanacos, sew
en- vicuna, seven brace of culi-culi, one
brace of quivio, five ducks, three snipes
and no end of fun. The end of the hunt
was to the tunes Of a banjo and piano.

senator Harris Is Worse.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Senator Harris
Of Tennessee, who has been i'll at his
residence in this city for the past week
or ten days, is worse than he has been
recently, and his friends are rather
alarmed over his condition. 1t became
necessary Wednesday night for him to
have a surgical operation performed
on one of his eyes. He slept poorly
afterwards, and when his physician
called early Thursday morning he found
his patient in quite unsatisfactory con-
dition. He was in much lin and did
not seem to be himself - ally.

VIII March with Corey.

Coxey's call for a parade of the un-
employed on Washington's birthday
will be answered by Q, 900 idle sons Of
toll in st. Louis. The central body of
the knights of Labor has appointed a
committee to arrange for the parade in
behalf of that organization. IL is esti-
mated that out of total of 30. 900 men
belonging to unions 1000 are unem-
ployed. Besides this army of idle trades
unionists it is estimated that there are
over 10, 600 unemployed clerks and un-
skilled laborers not connected with any
