. cause a man is blind, is no sign {,
. he can be imposed upon, or can .
. not shoot This was demnostrat- Z,
q ed to the full satisfaction of Alta {,
. line F. Ulibarri, the chief of po- {,
9 lice of the west side, Saturday .
(, night. He lies writhing in pain 9
Q today with seven bullet holes in .
q his limbs, as a result of his sinful (,
. conduct with another mans wife q
. Saturday night, the wife of Emf {,
. lilo Samora, the blind violinist {,
. who plays for most of the native .
. bailes given in the city. .
q 1t happened this way Mr. Sa- .
q mora was engaged to play for q

. Ulibarri knowing this, thought to q
= put in the evening with his inam- q
{, orata, while Mr.. Samora, the hus- q
{, band, was making the hearts of q

. at the bale. 1t seems Mr.. Sa- =
q mora, had got wind of the police q
{, mans attentions to his wife, not q
q withstanding the fact that he is q
q practically totally blind. He q
q thought this evening a good time q
q to eaten his unfaithful spouse and q
o her paramour red-handed in their q
. guilty love. He, accordingly, hav- q
:, ing heard oil the postponement of {,
. the dance took his guide which is q
q young boy, and went out the .
q gate as usual, but instead of going q
q down town, he sent the boy on, (,
. and crept around to the rear of =
. the house, and secreted him q
(, self under the bed. He had to wait {,
q long time before the policeman =
. put in his appearance, but he fin {,
. ally came. A love scene followed, .
. and he, the husband, listened q
. while his own wife was violating q
{, his trust right over his head. The .
. guilty pair, later, fell asleep, and, q
= watching his chance, the husband .
q reached out and took off the 9
q washstand the policeman's own .
q gun, where he had laid it, moved q
. back under the bed, where he .
q could be in a measure protected, .
q and turned the gun loose, up q
Z, through the bed. He fired five y
q shots, two of which took effect in .

. 45-caliber plowing clear through Q
q with one shot, and one bullet .
. lodging near the left knee. The {,
. wife was also graZed with bull .
{, let, but was not injured. She {,
{, sprang out of bed and ran away 9
= and friends took MIR. Ulibarri to :,
. his home, where he has a wife .
q and four children. He was still .
. undressed when taken home, his .
{, clothes being brought later. A .
q physician was called, and ne was Q
:, given medical attention at once. Q
. The bullets tore the muscles, but .
O it is believed did not strike the .
q bones, and it is probable he will .

. was later arrested and gave bond Q
. for his appearance when wanted. .
