like Mrs Osborn, who IL a fashionable
dressmaker, has had considerable ex-
perience In the theater. She was an In
FAINT phenomenon on the stage and
abandoning infancy she formed the
Baker stock company leased the Criter-
ion theater Brooklyn and had some
success IN the revival Of Old plays,
However. Brooklyn, although included
in our city, separated from us only by
the East river, is thousand miles be-
hind New York. The Brooklyn people
are strange, occult, mysterious and alb
horrent to the ways and manners Of
Manhattan. In our nelghborng borough
there is certain Mrs. Spooner who
runs a theater and supplied almost its
entire company out OF her own family,
Between the acts of tragedy she sends
out one legged man to sing comic
songs. She and her family play every
thing from Shakespeare to Charles
Hoyt with resolute purpose, and no ap-
probation Of the ridiculous She checks
babies, as II they were umbrellas, and
slows them away materially while their
mothers 90 shopping. If George Wash
ington was the father Of his country
Mrs. Spooner Is the mother OF Brooklyn,
and her theater is crowded every even
ing and at the matinees. After the per-
formance she serves tea and mullins on
the stage and invites everybody TO step
up and get acquainted with the actors
in general and the Spooner family In
particular. This amlable, matrlarchal
and unique woman is regarded With
great seriousness and applause by
Brooklyn which drinks her tea, eats her
mullins, admires her performances gets
her to check its babies and gives her an
income estimated at $40 1000 year,
An attempt was made last winter
TO emulate her example at the Circle
theater in this town, but II came to dis

parable and extraordinary: and as Miss

THREE SHOTS AT SCOTT

E. B. Scott, who was fined s750 yes terday by Justice Mcdonald, reached the acme of his trouble last night into cutting and shooting affray with Yellow Dick who runs the free lunch stand at the St. Elmo saloon.
 The two men, both colored, met in the rear of the fire house, and Dick fired three shots at Scott, two of which took effect One broke Scott s left arm and the other struck him in the abdomen, infiicting a slight flesh wound
 Dick has a severe cut just behind his left ear, which was to all appear ances inflicted with a razor. The razor has not been found, though the officers did recover the revolver near a barn in the alley back of the St. Elmo saloon.
 Constables Doyle and Casad hap pened to be near the scene of the af- fray and at once placed Yellow Dick under arrest He is being kept in his room under the care of a guard. He will be given hearing as soon as Scott is able to be out again.
 When arrested, Dick refused to talk to the officers. He went so far as to refuse to give his name, He re fuses to either deny or admit that he was mixed up in shooting scrape and used his revolver to good effect.
 Scott's most serious injury is his broken arm. He vas taken soon after the affair took place to a doctors of flee, where his wounds were dressed
Bisbee daily review., 1903-01-02

The wound in his tomach came near being fatal. Instead of penetrating the body, the bullet followed the skin part way around one side and emerged
 Scott refuses to say who was the aggressor in the affair. When taken he was wild with rage and suffering in- tensely from his wounds. He is still wrought up over the little case he had in Justice McDonald's court, and lays the whole affair to his domestic trouble.
 It is evident that there is a woman in the case, and that woman is Scott's wife Upon good authority it is stat ed that Yellow Dick" has been pay ing Scotts wife some attention, which has angered the husband to such an extent that he is fighting mad.
 While Scott and his wife were pack. ing up yesterday he made some re- mark about her having been too ia miiiar with a negro named Dick" '" Whether this is the same Dick who was mixed up in the shooting last night is a matter for conjecture.
 Scott at one time ran lunch coun- ter here Before that he was in the dray business in Phoenix. He has been having trouble with his wife for some time on account of the manner in which she has acted with other men in this city.
 Until the two men are examined it will be impossible to learn who was the aggressor. They have not been on good terms for some time.
