numbered 4s3; for the same months this
year they are 775-a gain Of 292, and
this gain Is pretty well distributed

shotgun and lay in wait in the hallway
outside his daughters door. In due time,
he declares, the prearranged signal was
given and Watson appeared at the window.
He was astride the sill when Sloan fired,
the charge entering his breast. He made
his way home and the doctors pronounced
his injuries fatal. A magistrate took his
deposition which embraced the facts above
related.

day Harriet Sherler. four years old, was Sc

her father, John J. Sherler.- of 239 River

hold on the child's hand to purchase
ticket. The next instant Mr. Sherier heard
the child's screams Turning he saw her
standing at the door leading to the trains
with blood flowing from wounds on her left
forearm and chest. She said cat had bit
ten and scratched. The father sucked the
wounds and the depot matron poured tur-
pentine on them.
Mr.. Sherler was told that no cat is kept
in the Harlem station but that one makes
an occasional visit there Mr.. Sherler took
thei child to the Florence hospital where
her wounds were cauterized. No one he
said. had seen the cat excepting the child,
who said that she stopped down TO play

Hastings. Neb., Aug. 22.-Viola Horlock-
er, the young stenographer, who achieved
SO much notoriety here a few months ago
an effort to kill Mrs. Anna Morey, wife of
the lawyer for whom she was working, is
an inmate of the Jacksonville, ILL.,, asylum
She was committed to that institution
quietly nearly three months ago. The facts
have just leaked out, as result of the
county attorneys efforts to ascertain If the
defendant who was released on S5 900 bond
to appear for trial next month would likely
be present. Her lawyers quietly admit that
the girl was practically maniac. and had
been for some time before the crime was
committed. She was taken to Jacksonville
and entered in the ward for incurably in
sane. r.>s- n-.. -..s..
Miss Horlocker is said to be in a desper-
ate condition and no hope is entertained of
her permanent recovery. This is the story
given by friends of the girl. II is not yet
certain that the State will accept the story.
1t is said that the girl is not in the asylum
but was sent out OF the country to avoid the
consequences of her crime, or if she is in
the asylum she was placed there to escape
prosecution just for a time. There is much
sympathy for as we'll as much bitterness
against the girl. A great many think that
her bond will be declared forfeited and she
declared fugitive from justice If her law
yers do not produce her at the specified
time and permit a local examination TO be
made as to her mental condition. If she
were insane she could have been easily
committed in Nebraska, but her friends say
she would have avoided publicity more by
being sent to another State as she was. The
