SHOT THE BURGLAR
Who Left a Trail OF Blood As He
Fled


While making his rounds last night,
Dan Stedham, night watchman in the
Sheldon block, heard suspicious sounds
coming from the basement. He went
down by the rear stair way and by the
light of his lantern he saw two men
standing in the west room Of the base
ment. He called to them to surrender
but for an answer one of the men
pulled his gun and fred at Dan, who
returned the compliment two.fold.
Dan bad dropped his lantern and It
went out, leaving the three men in
darkness. The futruders ran up the
front stair way, out the front door and
escaped.
The burglars had opened the tool
chest of a carpenter named Jesse Will
son and had about S2O worth o; tools
packed in a sack which in their hurry
they left behind-and that isn't all.
One of the men left a track of blood
from where he stood when Dau fired
his second shot to where it was lost in
the dust of the street. It ia rot known
how badly he is hurt but the blood
drops are big aud frequent.
Two saws and plane were fou nd on
the walk in front of the HERALD
office where the burglars had dropped
them in their flight, Indicating that
they had taken q northward course a.
least that far.
Watchman Stedham said be had
accosted a suspicious looking negro
in the park about dark yesterday
evening and had also seen him again
near the arch about mid night The
encounter happened between three and
four O'Clock this morniag.
Carpenters working In the Sheldon
block report several losses of tools and
clothing recently. Carpenter Wilson,
whose tool chest was opened by these
burglars, had pair of trousers that he
had left in the building stolen short
time ago.
