PLANNING OUTDOOR WORK
FOR Y. NJ. A. MEMBERS

Outdoor work will be made feat
ure at the Y. NJ. c. \. this spring and
summer. The outdoor gymnasium
that was partially fitted up just west
of the rear of the building, but which
could not be used last year on ac-
count of the wetness of the season,
will probably be put to good use this
year. In addition the members will
have the use of the tennis court on
the Stewart lot on Nineteenth Street
that was used last year. There will
be other forms of outdoor athletics
introduced in due season, those in
charge of the association being now
engaged in perfecting plans.
Probably the last match game of
basketball of the season will be play
ed at the gymnasium Saturday even
ing, when the association team will
meet Augustana college. The college
season is ended, but the members of
the team consented to give the assoc
citation a return game. No admission
will be charged.
Light repairs are in progress at
the bath room, being refitted with a
new floor and some of the baths re-
built and lined.
a social under the auspices of the
Young Peoples society of the Memoir
iaI Christian church will be held at
the association parlors some time in
the near future, the date having as
yet not been fixed.

ney had been shot by an unknown.
party. while she was engaged in pre-
pairing breakfast. At first the report
said it was Mrs. Winnie Carter, a we'll
known old lady of this city who had
been shot, but later in the day this
was found to be incorrect. The ball
grazed the left arm above the elbow,
and entered the left side e the heart,
and passed under the skin to the breast,
where it was extracted by DR.. 7. A.
Nicholson. The wound is not thought
to be serious. At first suspicion was
directed to Richard Lockyer, who is a
near neighbOr of the old lady, n with
whom she had some kin of misun-
derStanding. A warrant was sworn
out before Mr.. T. s. Simmons charg-
ing LOckyer with the crime. and he

had been secured generating him from
all blame and pointing to a member of
her family, a son of about thirteen
years of age. as the one who commit
ted the deed, and who we understand
is now in hiding. The weapon used is
thought by the officers to be a rifle,
found in the house, which shows signs
of being recently discharged and which
