The X Rays exhibition at the Presby-
terrain church, Monday night, was Wit
messed by goodly number of people.
The lecture by Prof. Kirby was satifac-
tory and the explanation was given un-
derstandingly. Most people have read

information not obtainable in reading.
1t is remarkable science, and it is being
utilized in many practical ways. The
X ray exhibition was given under the
auspices Of the County Normal, and
quite number of the students were
present.

EXCITING FOR A WHILE.
Lizzie Green Shoots at August
Banks.

Some excitement created on Jackson
street, between Sixth and Seventh, at $50
o'c.ock last evening by the attempt of Lizzie
Green, a colored woman, to kill August Banks,
negro bell boy formerly employed at the
Ryan hotel. Standing within ten feet of the
44-cahber bulldog revolver point blank at his
body, neither of which took effect. although
the first bullet pierced Banks clothing and
raised a welt on his left shoulder. Officer
Ryan placed the woman under arrest. The
revolver with which the shooting was done
was found in the hallway of 1884 Jackson
street, where it was thrown by the woman
after the attempt on Banks life.
The shooting grew out of quarrel between
Banks and his wife and Mrs, Green over the
presence of James Green, the latters husband,
at the Banks home, 3S4 Jackson street. Mrs.
Green went to the house to find her husband
and the quarrel resulted Banks and his
wife followed Mrs Green to the street. when
the latter threatened to kill them If they
touched her. She claims Banks struck her
and that when he followed her to the middle
of the next block she thought he intended
to repeat the attack, and shot at him in self
defense. Banks denies having struck the
woman and says he was simply looking for
policeman to have her arrested for threaten
ing the lives of himself and wife, when she
turned him and fired. The bullet which
pierced Banks clothing found in his
shoe at the police station though how it
came there without iniuring him is mystery.
The Green woman is charged with assault with
a dangerous weapon. Late last night Nellie
Glover, another colored woman, who is said
to do the shooting was arrested by Lieut..
Babe on the charge of disorderly conduct.
Both the Green family and the Glover woman
live at Ninth and Jackson.
