SHOT TO KILL,
But Not Being a Coed Shot the
Bullet Did Not Hit.

John Artis and Theodore Broadly
had scrap Tuesday afternoon over
a game of pool, and Artis thought to
settle the business in a serious way.
So he provided himself with a gun
and started to hunt his man. They
met in an alley near the Hornberger
home and Artis fired twice, but did
not hit Broadly. He took deliberate
aim, but closed his eyes and turned
his head as he fired. Broadly, think.
ing the fellow had fired a blank cart
ridge, started after him, when the
gun was again fired in the same man.
ner. Artis then ran to escape the
officers; jumped freight train and
rode until near the stone quarry,
where he got of and was soon cap
tured by Chief of Police Faulder,
who took him to Jail. The grand
jury. which was in session at the
time, returned an indictment against
him for shooting with intent to kill.

Opera House, May %. The Bellefon-

city, May 20, and the compliment

Many persons wonder why the seats
must be sold at high prices; it is be-
cause they do not know at what great
expense the oratorio is given.
Director Evans wrote to DIR. Duff
to employ him again this year, and
asked him to procure three soloists

are to have four solcis.s of the first
rank, all of New York.
For these the Union will pay s3It
for the one night.
They could not be secured at thii
low hgure-they would get doubl,
that price-only that they sing a

BURIAL
OF an Old Thine Resident Of
BellefOntdine.
Mrs. William Parker Dies at New
ton. Kansas. and Is Buried At
West Liberty.

Mrs. Heppy Euans Parker was born
in Middleburg, Logan county in 1919.
She was married to VIM. Parker. who
came from Kentucky, and moved to
West Liberty, between lS4O and 1850.
From thence they came to Bellefon-
taine, and about % years ago, moved
to indianapolis. Her husband, who
died some ten years ago, and two
daughters and two sons preceded her
in death. Monday night, May 4, 1908,
Mrs. Parker died at the residence of
her daughter, Mary, Mrs. Roland
LYNCH in Newton, Kansas, aged 81
years. Her remains were brought to
West Liberty for interment and were
buried Thursday. Her son William of
of Marion, Ohio, and Oliver, of Indi-
annapolis, were present at her burial.
Mrs. Parker was a sister of Mrs.
Deborah Foos, and Mrs. Susan Wool
man, of our city. One of her daugh-
tiers, "Sadie," was the wife of Mr.. J.

OVERDRAWN!
Increase In Price of Fuel. and
Cost of Electric Lighting.
Will Probably Cover All or Near,
ly All the Shortage.

The fact that the Gas and Electric
Light Works have run behind large
ly-something over sl5,OOO-has not
been owing to any corruption,
that is known or suspected. There
may have been some mismauagement
but that is not known. The prin-
cipal deficit has resulted from two
causes, first and principally because
there are only few private customers
of the electric light works and the
works have to keep up the street
lights with only a small fund provid-
ed by the city. The second shortage
is because of the increased price of
fuel the past year. This is
chargeable to the Trusts, as are the
thousands of dollars paid by private
citizens for their coal The man
ayers are not accountable for these
things.
But the increased expenses that
cannot be obviated should be met
with such economy and good manage
ment as is possible, on all lines, and
no gas for fuel should be sold below
the expense of making it.
Let the Board see that the best re-
suits are got out of every pound of
coal with the least possible expense
to the people.
Hurry up the work on the new
holder and get the works in better
condition to make gas, and to make
more OF 1t.

MAD DOGS!

Cattle and Sheep Go Mad.

The farmers living one, two and
three miles south of Mt. Victory have
experienced some excitement over
a mad dog scare the past week, and
fear of hydrophobia has been ram.
pant. The fracas started last
Wednesday, after G. X. James had
killed dog and when it became nee
essary for NJ. L. Foreman to shoot a
good COW because of her wild and
strange actions. Afterwards symp-
toms of savage beast were notice
able about another COW. but she died
from the effects of it before doing
any harm. And again Mr.. Foreman
suffered more loss by a valuable SOW
dying in the same manner.
On Thursday while T. F. Mccall
and son, Clyde, were working in a
field G X. James dog came near them
frothing at the mouth and having
fits. Mr.. Mccall climbed tree while
Clyde ran to the house, secured a
shot gun and returned and killed it..
Another farmer lost some sheep in
the same manner as Mr.. Foreman
lost his stock. The people we're
awakened and several CANNES at
large have been killed.
On Saturday morning the telephone
brought word to town that Thos. Sui
livans, dog should be killed and
the deed was soon done near the
depot. The dog seemed to be all right
but the report was that it fought
with Mr.. James dog. strict precau-
tiops have been taken.
The fourth COW of the herd belong
ing to Mr. Elisha James that suffered
an attack from mad dog, is doomed
to slaughter. The animal showed
unmistakable signs of hyprophobia,
1t cannot be known how many cattle
were bitten,-Mt, Victory Observer.
