The young men, until recently, had been

shocked the community of Armourdale,
where all the persons involved had lived
for years.
The two men and the woman met at
the corner of Usage avenue and Packard
street in the morning about 1 o'clock.
Dahm carried a revolver and a long
knife. Tucker had only a revolver. II
is claimed that the latter fired the first
shot, but instead of the man, his bullet
was intended for the woman. The first
ball missed it's mark Tucker fired
again. This time the bullet lodged in
the stomach of Dahm, who had run to
Mrs. Randall's assistance. Though NOR

in his left hand, sunk the weapon into

to the ground. and as he died he fired a
bullet into the body of Tucker. Both

Salvation Army Organizes a Gutter

Ensign John Howard OF the local Sal
walton Army corps has inaugurated a
winter relief campaign which is on a
scale greater than has been conducted
at any time in this city. Ensign Howard
has representatives of the Army at
work throughout the city In the re-

member assigned to duty in that de-
partment shall spend eighteen hours
week securing help for the destitute.
These workers compose what is known
as the Gutter and Carrot brigade ami
besides the immediate relief of the poor
have in hand the feeding of 1000 or more
people at a great Christmas dinner to
be given by the Salvationlsts.
Ensign Howard is anxious to get to-
gether all that is possible of food, fuel
and clothing for the class of people
which he is making an effort to reach,
and is willing to send the Army wagon
after it if only those who are in pO-
sition to render him assistance will ad-
wise him. He can be reached by tele-
phone the number on both systems be-
ing 942
In discussing the work among the poor
of the country which the Army does,
Ensign Howard said: I'VE can do a
great deal in connection with all sorts
OF agencies for helping the poor, but We
have our own particular class to reach.
To the unintiated eye poverty appears
10 be one seething cauldron of dirt, rags,

their lives to the practical task of com
