Mcdonald heard the two shots
Friday afternoon. There was
only one bullet wound on Beadle's

Nary Children Very Sick.

The four children Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Herman Konoski who are
believed to have taken poison for
medicine yesterday morning are
still very ill and Mr.. Konoski was
in the city again this afternoon
to summon the services of a
physician. DR.. Marcum re-
turned from the place last night
and stated that the condition of
the children was not serious, but
it is probable that they have
grown worse since his departure
from the Konoski home or his
services would not again be re-
quired today.

First Jiu Jitsu In England.

First Jiu Jitsu In England.
The talk Of jiu jitsu in this coun-

OF "a great amateur may, practicer
OF boxing and wrestling who will

those who consulted him. A some
what sedate peer visited the baronet
one day and, walking with him in
his garden, made the polite remark
that he would like to see a specimen
Of his hosts reputed skill, upon
which the other 'fseized him sudden
ly from behind and threw him over
his head" This is surely the earli-
est recorded instance Of jiu jitsu in
England and merited the superb re-
ply Of the wrestler to the Infatuated
peer: My lord, this is proof Of
my great friendship for you This
master stroke I have shown to no
other person living"

the shield is Like the cover that fits over
a tin tea canister. 1t caps perfectly the
advancing end of the tunnel with Its face
and shell" extending back several
feet over the completed tunnel wall. In
side this hood the tunnel is constructed
in rings composed of a number of segl-
ments with inwardly projecting fanges
which permit them to be firmly bolted to-
gether When finished the tunnel is u.s.
ually lined with concrete, though some
are bricked, making in either case per-
fectly smooth wall. on each side Is a
shelf for wires and pipe lines. 1t also
