Mysterious Shooting.

-lohn Powers, a la bOrer on tl {
city sewer work, was shot about s
O'Clock last night by some un-
known person while proceeding to
the FL Paso house from Bob East
on's saloon. The bullet struck him
in the right thigh, breaking the
bone The injured man was con.
veyed in wagon to DR.. Bakers
Office, where he was made as com
fornble hs possible for the night,
pending the removal of the bullet
today.
There is considerable mystery
attached to the shooter. Bob
Easton and Constable Ed MoCool
were each arrested last night and
released on bond of 81 900 apiece,
McCool's relatives being his sure
ties, and H. Houston going on the
bond for Mr.. Easton. That gem
tleman denied all knowledge of
the identity of the shooter when
seen by tribune man this morn
ing. Someone threw a good sized
rock into his saloon just previous
to the shooting and he says that he
stepped out and saw several men,
but did not ascertain who threw
the rock.
Powers, who was seen this morn
ing, said the trouble arose over a
board bill which the landlord of
the El Paso wanted to collect, but
which he preferred paying to the
landlady. Incidentally, Powers
got mixed up in row with a fell
low laborer, who is also fellow
boarder, which resulted in the lat
ter throwing the rock at him Pow
ers says that he then started home,
and when near the electric light
plant. was halted by a man who
asked him where he was going.
He replied, "home," and after a
few more words, he says the man
pulled gun and fred two shots,
the second one getting him, He
declares that he would know the
man again, but is positive that he
has never seen him before.
The preliminary hearing of
Easton will tax eplace at 4 p. m.
today, before Justice Lockard,
McCools case will come at 3
o'clock
Ed McCool, when seen by The
TRIBUNE representative, denied all
knowledge of who did the shooting.
He stated that he had been serving
attachment papers in the neigh
borhood and on hearing the racket
ran in the direction of the
shooting.

Harding get the place, for the reason
that he is a man who can be relied on
every time.
It is sal dthat George Gould desires to
reside the presidency Of the road IN order
to accept the Craftsmanship Of the board
Of directors and that he desires Mr..
Harding to take his place. BIr Harding
is IN fact Wichita man and it is but
natural that people here should be in
terested in this story. It would be
something to have a Wichita man ct the
head Of the great Missouri Pacific sys-
TEN. People here Of course expect that
Mr.. Harding would look out for the in
terest Of his road, bur at the same time
there IS a feeling that he would not hurt
Wichita. 1t VIII be remembered that
when there was talk Of making Mr.
Harding general manager Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific the first hint came from
Arkansas, but It was Wichita that kept
the thing boiling and not a few railroad
men denied that there was any founda-
ton for these Wichita stories, but Mr..
Harding got the promotion just the
same.
This change has not yet passed the NJ
NOR stage, but there IS a strong con-
v;ction among the railroad men in this
city that there is more than rumor in
this story. They know how such things
arc talked IN advance among the rail-
road magnates and how liable it is to
leak out There win be a mint here and
there and very soon the public knows
what is contemplated to be done.

WAS ALlTTLELATE
Boys IN the North End Had a CeIe-
brafInn LIST airhf

p
Last night there occurred a celebration
of the Fourth at the corner of 18th and
Lawrence that made up in fun. all that
it lacked of being on schedule time. It
seems from ell that the reporter for the
Eagle could gather that the
North End Racket and the North End
drug store have been made the victims
Of a practical joke. much to the amuse-
meut of some of Dold's employees. One
Of the clerks of the last mentioned place
is quite q genius on yarn spinning and
it is his chief delight to roast some poor
mortal to a brown turn. Accordingly
after dun Fourth he secured a ohum
who is always ready for fun and to the
Racket he went.
The proprietor met him eTsbIy and
soon al were engaged in cusing the
weather. Our genius remarked IN a
passing way that the Insurance .compan-
les had decided TO raise their rates on
AN buildings and stocks where Fourth
Of July poraphernalia was stored. This
was affirmed and attested to IN such an
emphatic way that the proprietor OF the
Racket became badly scared SIS the Wis
ions OF increased expense appeared and
il took but little more painting by the
boys from D0ld's 20 induce him TO bring
forth his whole stock Of fireworks and
soon the celebration was in fuu swing.

CLAIM HAS MERIT
thomas Lynch Returns From
Old ireland.
IS GETTING A F00TH0LD
Occupants of BaIIycurren
Castle Getting Scared.

MY attorneys have satisfied the court
that the present occupants are not the
legitimate owners Of BaIlycurren Castle
in the county Of Galway anu Mayo. ]
VIII have to prove that am the lawful
owner in another suit"
That was what Thomas Lynch said last
night 10 a reporter for the Eagle, as he
sat on the broad porch of his fine cottage
on Waco avenue. He had just returned
from q trip to Ireland, where he had been
TO attend trial which is to decide who
is the rightful owner Of Bauycurren Cas-
tie with its sos acres OF land and some
4,SS8 acres outside now occupied by 1O5
tenants. Mr.. Lynch was the picture OF
health and he said he had enjoyed his
visit to his old home on the emerald isle
Mr. Lynch brought ont a COPY of the
record Of his case, which If printed in
book form would make a very large vol
ume. He pointed out the sections of the
record whore his claim had been estab-
hshed or admitted by the defendants and
when one locks over the record he Won
ders why Thomas II. Lynch could not
at once get possession Of this property
Of immense value. Ills claim Is this val
liable property is not one nsbed up by
designing attorneys TO get a fee, but it is
backed by wills and historical proofs that
seem positive that the Lynch family is
the rightful owners and that he is the
legitimate heir to it. The attorney who
now has the case is named O'Conneu and
is a descendent Of the renowned Daniel
O'ConneH and he does not charge any
fee until he wins the case
Mr.. Lynch said he realized that he
would have a hard fight because the aris-
tocrats IN possession would not willingly
surrender. They do nol like the idea Of
a citizen of the United States coming
over there and getting such a valuable
property. He said Mr.. O'C0nneu dis
missed the case tie other attorneys had
brought and a new one would be fled.
Mr. Lynch has studied this case and he
is satisfied in his own mind that he is
the rightful owner. but he takes the
matter very cody and does not appear TO
be in the least excited about It,
Money counts in big law suits in the
English courts rs well as in any other
and Mr.. Lynch has no doubt that If he
had lived in England or ireland and
backed by immense wealth and innu-
ence. he would have had little trouble
Ia establishing his right TO this historic
tastle. he is regarded among the attor-
neys in ireland as possessing a claim
that has merit and Thomas IT. Lynch Of
Wichita is camping mighty close to the
present owners of Balycurren Castle.
They already regard him as a dangerous
claimant. lie has points in his case that
he does not give out for publication for
the reason that he knows his case must
be tried across the sea and not here.
There would be a good many people in
this city who would be pleased IL the
Wichita claimant wins his case in the
end
