SHOT In THE LEG.
George Arnold Shot While Attempt ing to
Rescue Woman.

While George Arnold, a young man living
near Reese, on the Reisterstown pipe, four
miles from Westminster, was driving on
county road, between the Westminster and
Washington and Reistertown pixies, on Tues.
day night last, he heard a woman scream in
woods by the roadside, and, getting out ofhis
buggy, went to her assistance. He found her
lying on the ground, with her feet tied togeth-
er, and was helping her up, when shot was
fired at him and the voices of two men were
heard threatening him. He abandoned the
woman and fed, and was fired upon three or
for times as he ran, one of the bullets taking
effect in the calf of his leg, while several shots
struck his buggy as he clambered into it and
drove away.
The bullet, which was imbedded in the
muscles of his leg at depth of about an inch,
was extracted by DIR. Coonan, of Westmin-
Ster.
What became of the woman young Arnold
did not know. Persons residing in the neigh
borhood where the shooting occurred say they
heard the firing and saw the men, accompan-
led by woman, drive away from the place.

for the party.
Three raccons and four skunks were cap
tured in the nights hunt. At midnight a
camp fire was started, and just as everything
was getting we'll on the way for supper, noise
was heard IN the bushes, not far from the
camp, which had the whole crowd guessing
as to what it might be. But when the dogs
were turned loose in the direction from which
the sound come, they soon had something
a coming towards the camp and when the
animal got in sight no one tried to stop it, for
it proved to be a catamount. 1t did not run
far before it ran into pile of rocks. Then
the boys went back to the camp and rekindled
the fire. 1t was not long before the the odor
of coffee filled the air. Then good supper
was served in true army style. After supper
another hunt was planned for the following
Saturday night, to take place in Hartford
