He abused his wife and step-daughter so
frequently that Miss Coons finally went
TO member OF the police force and com
planned. This man. a city detective. told
her to get a gun and shoot Hnl the next
time he abused her.
Yesterday afternoon Hill went home
intoxicated. The girl says he at once be
gan calling her vile names. She told him
IL he applied a certain vile epithet 10 her
again she would shoot him. He at once
used it again and the sirI shot AT him
three times. lie was struck in the arm
and bad flesh wound inflicted.
Miss Coon went TO Chief Cranston and
gave herself up. After hearing her story
the chief allowed the girl 20 goher way.

porter to a place where overcoats are not

Miss Coon is a very pretty and lady
like girl and most people who know her
are surprised at the nerve she displayed
She is employed at the cigar stand at
the Planters Hotel.
There is nothing dangerous about the
wound Hin received unless blood poison
ing sets in. He was about as badly
frightened as a man could be.
