MUNCIE, Ind, April 22-James Lovett
employed at the pulp MILL has been at
tempting to induce Minnie Cannady to leave
her husband and elope with him. Tonight
Lovett called the woman to her door, and
when she refused to go with him he pulled
a revolver and fired two shots at her as
she ran; one shot tore through her left arm.
Policeman John Gallagher espied Lovett
soon afterwards and gave chase. AS he
neared the man on First street, near Wal
nut, Lovett pulled revolver, commanding
the officer to halt. Gallagher did not stop
and caught LoVett'S arm, directing the bull

desperate struggle followed between the two
men and the officer was beaten over the
head with the revolver until blinded with
blood. Gallagher knocked the man down
three times, but for want of help could not
hold him, and he escaped with a bullet from
the officers revolver after him. The Cam
nady woman arrived here from Marion to-

A Disaster Ayerted.

A one-armed man, while walking on
the railway track between Carlton and
Cloquet, noticed that the rails had
spread, and at the same time heard a
train coming. He walked on rapidly
until near enough to signal, which he
did in genuine railroad manner. The
train was stopped and the trainmen
descended to see what was the matter.
Upon seeing that the track was in a
dangerous condition they went to work
to repair it. and it took an hour to get
the track in shape so that they could
proceed. A purse was made up by the
passengers for the man who signalled
the train and was given to him in graf
itude for his thoughtful act. The man
would not give his name, but said he
was an old railroader bound for Deer
