officer A. e. Zimmerman. of the
Fourth precinct. ordered Stafford to
stop, but the latter continued to run.
Several further commands to halt were
Intellectual. and Zimmerman shot into
the air to frighten the fugitive. Then
the officer aimed to strike Stafford in
the leg. but instead struck him in the
lower part Of the back on the left side.
The bullet, which was Of 38 caliber,
passed through Sbaffords body. and
came out through the abdomen

man In a saloon on. First street
The officer went to investigate, but
when Stafford saw the police he start
ed to run. He went up a blind alley,
and turned towards Third avenue be-
hind the saloon. The officer called upon
him to halt, and shot fired into the
air failed to stop Stafford: Upon reach
ing Third avenue north Stafford turned
towards Second street. Zimmerman
was IN the street, and fired a second
time when the fugitive was about
seVenty-hve feet away. Stafford did
not give evidence of being shot, and
ran almost block up Second street.
"A citizen stopped him and turned him
over to the officer.
Upon being taken into ]. H. Kerrick's
machine shops at Third avenue and
Second street Stafford said he had been
shot, which proved true upon investi-
cation. He was Immediately sent to
the city hospital. where the wound was
dressed: The victim bled considerably
internally. and it is impossible at pres
ent to tell the outcome.
Ofhcer Zimmerman says he intended
only to brighten Stafford, and had no
idea of striking him in a vital spot.
Stafford said he lived on Queen avenue
northeast, but refused to tell the num-
her. His name is not in the directory.
Mayor Pratt and Superintendent of
Police Smith both said that from a
causual summary of the case. thew
believed that the shooting was justif-
able. Mayor Pratt said the officer had
always had record for being cool and
careful. If an officer had no right to
shoot at suspicious characters, it would
be an impeachment to the execution of
justice.

VERMILLION HUE FOR STREETS
Council Committee Decides to Pave
With Brick

Brick won a victory yesterday after
noon before the Minneapolis council
committee on paving. The committee
decided to pave large majority of
the streets this coming summer with
that article. These streets include two
OF the most important in the CITY.
N1collet avenue from Tenth to Thir-
teenth streets. and Hawthorn ave-
nue. from Twelfth to Bryant avenue.
And this was against the opinion of the
city engineer, who stated that he con-
sidered it a shame to have Nicollet
avenue paved with anything but
asphalt when so much of it had al
ready been paved with that material
Although he did not say so, Mr.. Cap
pelen also was against paving Haw-
thorn avenue with brick. as he con-
siders asphalt the ideal paving for
such street as that In other re-
spects, Mr.. Cappelen's ideas were car
RED out. 1t was in the alleys that
brick secured it's greatest triumph.
getting nearly two-thrds of the dis
tance.
Granite was victorious in being
agreed upon for the curbing and in
five of the alleys. Sandstone will he
used by two of the streets and in two
alleys.
The committee agreed upon the fol-
ard avenues and alleys:
Brick-Hawthorn avenue Twelfth street
to Bryant avenue; Nicollet avenue, Tenth
street to Thirteenth street: Twelfth street.
Hawthorn to First avenue north: and the
alleys in the following blocks Of the town of
Minneapolis: Blocks 10. 49, "a, Sc, 49, 80, 81.

however. that all bids on asphalt be
