SHOT
F.ANDREws sLIG mTLY INJURED
Got Into Difficulty With Clarence
Purcell.

Fred Andrews, a colored piano player at
Kitty Lewis place on Wichita street, was
shot and slightly wounded last night
about 1880 o'clock by Clarence Purcell, a
gambler, known as Kid Hazlett The ball
entered Andrews breast lust below the
right nipple, struck a rib and glanced
downward.
1t seems that Purcell and woman
named Alice went to Kitty Lewis
place about midnight The Two, 1t is sal !
were intoxicated. The trouble arose be-
cause Andrews could not play a piece
of music the Kid asked. 1t is said Purcell
kicked Andrews, who, seeing that Purcell.
meant trouble retreated from the room
ard hid himself in d small room in tie.
back of the house.
Purcell, it is claimed, then drew a re-
volver and started after Andrews. Kitty
Lewis endeavored to stop him. and An
drews ran down the basement stairs. The
Lewis woman put her back to the door
and attempted to keep Purcell from open
ing it. The latter however, threatened
to shoot her, and drove her away. He
then opened the door and shot at An
drews, who was standing at the bottom
of the stairs, wounding him in the chest.
Turning away, Purcell drove the Lewis
woman into her room and left in a hack,
accompanied by the woman Alice.
Kid Hazlett is well known about town
and is of a very quiet and pleasant nature
when not drinking and he is not known
to dri, < very much.
He gave himself up about an hour later

BILL GREEN Boil TED
Was the Rumor Spread on
His Return From Sioux City
POPS TOO ANXIOUS
ANXIOUS
POPS TOO
BRYAN Wouldn't Take Pop
Nomination Before Democratic

William Flavius Green, who was dele
eata IN the national Populist convention
came home yesterday in displeasure at
the proceedings of the convention In
fact. it was rumored that he was so
much displeased that he quit the con-
.yentlon before it was over, or, rather,
bolted the plans.
Mr.. Green was seen last night and
asked if the rumor about his coming
home was correct, said: mo, that was
not the reason" The reporter then asked
MIR. Green if it was not true that he was
opposed 20 the methods and proceedings
of the convention. Eyes, that is true,
ne said. at was in favor Of adjourning
the convention and meeting in Kansas
City on the 4th OF July. OF course 1t did
, not make any difference about the nom
ination Of Mr.. Bryan as that was I0re-
gone conclusion. It was the nomination
of the vice president which I thought
ought to be postponed. 1t Is long time
TIL the 4th of July, and it seems 20 me
that it is not good policy for the Popu-
lists, at this early stage Of the game, to
place their candidate in the field. BY the
tine the 4th gets around the Democrats
will probably have some one else whom
they will insist on nominating, and the
result will be the same as it was in 1886.
''Now, that is my exact position in the
matter. I believe the Kansas and the
Nebra ska delegations were in favor of
adiourning until the 4th, but the South
Dakota and the Texas delegations We're
dead against the proposition. As thugs
are now, Towne has practically no oppo-
sition, and Of course the delegation from
his state is very anxious to have him
fixed on the ticket. But the Populists
do not know that Towne will be at all ac-
ceptabe to the Democratic convention,
and that's one reason why I thought the
convention ought to be postponed.
"The other reason is that at the Clay
Center convention, TO which 1 was a
delegate Mr. Bryan made the statement
that he would not accept the nomination
from the Populist convention previous to
the time that he had been nominated by
the Democrats. And can see no reason
why kc should be forced into taking their
u0mration after having made such a
s;rcne statement of his preferences. And
then it 9. ems to me t! at IL the Pe!u-

Miss Mckibben Winning Fame rs an EIo-
cutionIst.
Miss Margaret McKibben, a native
of Rock Island, and the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. F. McKibben, of this
city, is winning fame as an elocution-
ist. having appeared in number of
cities, in all of which she received
most flattering receptions. While it
is Miss McKibben's purpose to teach
elocution rather than to appear pub
licly as a rule, she has on a mum Der
of occasions assisted old friends and
associates in the faculty of educa-
tional institutions with which she
has been identified, as she did in this
instance. The Freeport Journal, in
a writeup of an ,entertainment given
by the Warren Academy Glee club,
says:
1.-The club is ably assisted by Miss
Margaret McKibben. an elocutionist
of splendid talent, who can entertain
an audience for an entire evening.
Her work is artistic and perfect in
every detail. Miss Clara K. Sheean,
the soprano soloist, has a musical
voice of rare quality and sweetness,
and her numbers were all enthusiast
tically received. In Miss Harriet
Schadle the club has a pianist who is
thoroughly devoted to her art and is
one of the most enthusiastic young
musicians we have ever met. While
she had the advantage of some ex-
cellent teachers, yet she has an indi-
viduality all her own and puts life
and expression into her work, the re-
suit being most gratifying. She has
an artistic temperament and the en-
thusiasm and perseverance necessary
to make great musician, and is in
addition such a sweet young lady
that she is bound to win high stand
ing in musical circles"

The Obituary Record.

Robert Munro, father of j. A. Nun
70. of this city, and r. H. Munro, of
Moline, died yesterday at his home,
two miles north of Davenport, of a
plication of diseases and old age.
He was born in Scotland, and was 73
years of age, coming to this country
about forty-six years ago, and settling
in Davenport. where he lived until
his death. He leaves wife, five sons
and three daughters.
Edward HickoX, whose death at the
county in6rmary was chronicled in
last evenings ARGUS, had been in
feeble health for some time. He had
had the best of care, but had outlived
the years allotted to most men. He
was the Oldest Mason in this state,
and was the organizer of lodges in
this locality after doing work in that
line in other pats of the state. In
later years he had dropped his mem
bership. but after he was taken to the
infirmary he was reinstated in Erie
lodge, with the understanding that a
general appeal was to be made for
him to all the lodges in the state.
Before this appeal could be sent out
his life passed away. At the request
of relatives the funeral will be in
charge of Doric lodge. of Moline, who
for some time had taken kindly in
terest in his welfare, and had pro-
vided him with many comforts while
his reinstatement was pending before
the lodge at Erie.
Mr.. Hickox Joined the Masonic or
der in 1928, and was one of it's most
active organizers in the state. He
joined the Trio lodge of Rock Island
in 1916, ne organized Port Byron
lodge in 1857, and Erie lodge, just
over the Rock Island county line in
Whiteside county. in 1859. In later
years he had dropped his member
ship.
The funeral will take place from the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Henrietta
Brown. in South Moline, Sunday after
noon. Beside his daughter. Mrs.
Brown, he leaves several other chill
dren, James, of Denver; Henry, also
in Colorado. and Mrs. Richardson, of
Hillsdale.
The 10-months-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Andrew j. Lerch, living at 10S
Eighth street, died at 9:40 this morn
ing after 4-days' illness with brain
fever
