and ran into the saloon of Hornatsky.

after the men had entered and refused
to admit the crowd. They at once
smashed all the windows in the place,
and breaking down the doors, rushed
in and demanded that the saloonkeeper
give UP to them the non-union men.
These had made their escape by the
back door, and while the saloon keeper
barricaded himself behind the bar, his
wife, Mrs. Stella Hornatsky, ran up
stairs and returned with a shotgun.

re-entered the room, and her first shot
took effect in the shoulder of Peter
Visor, who was leading the mob.
The crowd at once fed the place, car
rying Visor with them. The mob re-
turned to the attack. but was dis
