yard at Kemp's store on the corner of

The officer called to him to stop, but
instead of doing so, he began firing di-

charging the weapon four times. The
officer then drew his revolver and re-
turned the gentleman's compliments,
but nobody was hit by either party,
and the would-be burglar succeeded in
escaping to an adjoining yard.
