A BULLET IN THE LEG
Mcleod May Be a Victim OF a
Young Assassin.
HE HAD BEEN THREATENED
The Boy Says That owney Sheehan Had
Said He Would XIII Him-Once
Before Young Mcleod Had
a Close Call.

Leonard Mcleod. the 9-year-old son
either of an unlucky accident or of the
murderous designs of some youthful
Butte assassins, and circumstances point
rather strongly to the latter view of the
case. Young Mcleod lives at No. 432
South Ohio avenue. About 10 o'clock
yesterday morning he and two other
boys were playing in a vacant lot on he
opposite side of the street from the Nc
Leod residence. They were playing at
mining there, and have a shaft several
feet deep. one of the boys was down
in the shaft, Mcleod and the other boy
were at the surface hosting. All of a
sudden there was a shot. and young Nc
Leod fell to the ground with a bullet In
his leg. IL did not take long 10 get the
neighbors out, but although a very thor
ough search was Instituted there was no
trace of who fired the bullet or where
il came from.
A doctor was summoned. He ound
the bullet had entered the feshy portion
of the boys left leg. He probed for
some distance, but could not find the
bullet. No serious consequences are,
however, anticipated.
There are two circumstances which
make it seem likely that the bullet
reached its mark by design rather than
by accident. One is the fact that only
a week previously, while Mcleod and
young Eckles were playing in the street
near the same place, a shot was heard,
and a bullet struck Eckles' dog in the
leg and broke IL. Then, as yesterday,
there was no sign of where the bullet
came from, or who fired il. 1t would
scarcely seem likely that such an acct
dent could happen twice under such
similar circumstances. The other thing
worthy of note in this connection is that
Mcleod says he has been threatened.
The boy who is said to have declared
that he would kill young McLeod is
Owney Sheehan. a son of John Sheehan,
who lost his life in the Hale house fire,
and a brother of Mary Sheehan, on the
charge of attempting to assault whom
Charbeau was arrested yesterday.
Young Sheehan was arrested last even
ing, and is being held pending a thor
ough investigation of the affair.
Mrs. Edgar Dayton, who lives at No.
1876 South Ohio avenue, says she saw two
boys come down the street with rifles
and fish lines just a few minutes be-
fore the shooting. She says hat she
could not identify these boys. If they
were guilty they must have lodged
around the block, got in behind a house
and fired at young Mcleod through an
alley. 1t Is believed that the shot must
have been fired from "A rifle rather than
from a revolver, inasmuch as a revolver
bullet could scarcely have carried so
far. The depth that the bullet pene-
trated indicates that 1t was no spent
bullet which struck him.

Three Prayers.
lfan, in its cradle slept,

An infant in its cradle slept,
And in its sleep il smiled
And one by three women knelt
To kiss the fair-haired child;
And each thought of the days TO be
And breathed a prayer half silently.
One poured her love on many lives,
Bat knew loves toll and care;
Its burdens oft had been TO her
heavy weight to bear;
She stopped and murmured lovingly:
Not burdened hands, dear child, for thee"
One had not known the burdened hands,
But knew the empty heart;
At ife's rich banquet she had sat
An unfed guest, apart;
obi not she whispered tendery.
An empty heart dear child, for thee"
And was old: she had known care,
She had known loneliness;
She knew God leads by no path
His presence cannot bless
She smiled and murmured trustfully:
Gods will. dear child Gods viii for thee!'
