Policemen McQuade and Kinch were sent to investigate. They found Mrs. Martin in the grocery, and she admit ted that she had fired the shots at her husband. She asked them to allow her to go upstairs for her coat and hat, and they went up with her. Mar tin opened the door to admit them, and when the officers saw blood ooztng from a wound behind his left ear they rang for the patrol wagon and had him conveyed to the Receiving Hospital. pr. Rinne found that only one bullet had taken effect, and it had entered the mastoid process of the temporal bone and inflicted a painful but not dangerous wound. Martin was so nerv- ous that no attempt was made to ex- tract the bullet. His ear and hair were powder marked.
 Mrs. Martin was taken to the City Prison and a charge of assault to mur- der was booked against her. She is a pleasant-faced woman about 27 years of age. Her first inquiry was as to the nature of her husbands wound, and when told that it was not dangerous she said: T am so glad, as I only did it to scare him. After six years of married life I was forced to leave him owing to his cruel treatment When he got intoxicated, which was very often, he would abuse me shamefullv. l have been a good wife to him and I love him now better than any other man in the world. He threatened to kill me last night and I was afraid he would carry out his threat. It was therefore his life or mine.' She would not admit that jealousy had anything to do with the shooting

 In his pockets was found a pair of brass knuckles, but he would not say why he carried such a murderous weapon. A letter was also found from his wife, dated November 30, in which she referred to their separation and his intention to leave the city.

CHANGED 70 A HUGE BARN
AUSTRALIA NOW WELL ON HER
WAY NORTH.
Amusing Scenes Before Her Depart
ure From San Francisco-Four Hun
dred Passengers at Seattle.

The steamship Australia sailed yes
terday for the north with about 800
Alaskan bound passengers. nearly as
many dogs, four mules and long
string of burros, says the San Francis
co Chronicle of February 21st. The
Australia is the largest passenger YES
sci that has made the trip thus far,
and an enormous crowd covered the
Pacific street wharf to witness her
departure.
The vessel has been altered out of
all recognition, and instead of the
graceful Honolulu passenger steam
ship, she resembles a huge barn. The
barking and bowling of the dogs al
most drowned every other sound. the
passengers were just barely visible.
and from nearly every port hole was
stuck the head of dog or mule or Il
burro.
The arrangements for handling pas
sengers, their friends on the wharf
and the live stock that formed so
great a part of the cargo. were beyond
criticism, and the dogs on the Austria
liza will have a far better time of it
than the first class passengers on
some of the improvised commodious
passenger steamships that have left
this port.
The only hitch in the loading pro-
cess was caused by the very smallest
of string of little burros. He re-
fused to climb the gang plank Ropes
could not drag him, and even Captain
Burkhart's famous voice only moved
him few feet. The burro was pugi-
listically inclined and several times
when it seemed certain that he must
at last submit to superior force, he
ducked his head. rolled down the gang
plank, and then with feet and head he
mixed things with stevedores and
deckhands in a most alarming man
ner.
The Australia will go from here to
Seattle, where 400 passengers are now
awaiting her. The steamships Excel
sior and Humboldt will sail today. the
former for Copper river and the lat
ter for Dyea and Skagway.
