Judgment. Ryan is under sentence of
two and one-half years in the peniten-
tiary.

VS.. r. G. Thompson, ct al, respondent
A motion by the respondent to dismiss

that the sureties on the cost bond did
not join in the appeal and were not
served with notice of appeal. The ac-
ton was for money paid by the COM
pany on a fire insurance policy, it be-
ing alleged that the payment was Sc

OFFICER HAS CLOSE CALL
Negro Shoots Five Times at
Reno PdtrOfmdn

A black brute named ]. White.
made a desperate attempt this morn
Ing, about 1870 o'clock. to murder
Dudley Acre. Il special patrolman Of the
Reno police force. He jumped from an
alley near the William Tel house on
Sierra street as the officer was passing
and fired two shots point blank at him.
Acre was startled by the flashes of the
revolver and fell back against a fence in
the rear of Dxon's butcher shop. He
pulled his gun. however, and returned the
shots. The negro then retreated into the
alley and waited until Acre approached
closer when he stepped out and took
three more shots at him.
BY this time other officers had arrived
on the scene and the would be murderer
ran down the alley and disappeared in the
darkness. The officers followed. but up
to a late hour this morning had not sue
ceeded in arresting him.
White had been arrested by Acre a few
u shts ago Whiie IN the act OF committing
a crime. He was taken before the ch eff
of police and given few hours to leave
town and has been in hiding since tha,
time. Last night about ~ o'clock lie
walked into a saloon on Commercial Row
and remarked TO another negro who was
in the bar room that he intended to kill
the policeman who had arrested him.
That he did not succeed in his purpose
was on account of his poor shooting. a
search will be made for him today ard
IL found he will be severely dealt with
