appointed city editor of The Mime

ter 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon by

er.
Dowell was shot through the right
temple, the ball penetrating the brain
and causing death few hours later.
The shooting occurred at 901 Chi
cago avenue, Quirk's residence, and
was the result of long standing
quarrel between the two men over
DowelFs attentions to Quirk's stem
daughter, Bessie Squires, an attract
i've girl of 23 years.
Owing to Quirk's extreme disap-
proval of Dowelrs attentions to Miss
Sauires, the girl had left his residence
and was boarding with friends. Ac-
companied by Dowell she went to the
Quirk home yesterday afternoon to
call upon her mother.
Quirk was at home and flew into a
rage on seeing Dowell, demanding of
his step daughter who had invited
him.
She replied that she had.
Quirk refused to let the matter
drop and violent quarrel followed.
The shooting occurred just as Dow
ell and the girl were leaving the
house.
DoWell was SO years old and is sur
yived by wife and a 14-year-old
daughter, who live at Vinton, Ia,
where Dowelrs father lives.
