 Net Necessarily Fatal.
 FL RENO, Okla., Dec. 22.-Captain Edoar B. Macklin of Company O, Twenty -fifth United States infantry. was shot twice and severely wounded last night by negro. and belief Is ex- pressed that 1t was one of the mem bers of the troop discharged by Presi- dent Roosevelt for taking part in the Brownsville riots. Bloodhounds have been put on the negros trail.
 The shooting occurred at the officers quarters at Fort Reno. Captain Mack lin and hls wife were seated 3t the din ner table when some one tried to gain entrance at the side door. Captain Macklin asked. "Who is there?'
 The reply came. T have a message for you"
 Come around to the back door," said Captain Macklin.
 A negro, part of his face covered by a mask, entered with the command, Throw up your hands and give me all the money you've gotv'
 Without giving Captain Macklin time to reply the negro fired twice, then fled into the darkness. One bullet entered Captain Macklin's abdomen. The sec ond bullet struck him in the jaw. The surgeons say that the wounds are not necessarily fatal.
 Captain Macklin rose from the ranks, is about thirty years old and is son of Colonel Macklin, who recently was retired with the pay of a brigadler gen. eral.
 On Dec. IA the secretary of war on recommendation of the general staff ordered the trial by court martial of Captain Macklin for conduct to preju- dice of good order and discipline in failing to exercise due diligence in pre- venting the rioting at Brownsville, charged against three companies of colored soldiers of the Twenty-Hfth in. fantry.

Warwick cashier Of the State bank Of
Provo, dated Dec. l, 1905, in which Per

the firm Of I. & S. Bing to look after
their interests. A check was sent to

KNIFE FIGURES IN FIGHT
Waiter In Sand Ridge Railroad Camp
Cuts Engineer in the
Head,

A serious cutting ARRAY took place at
noon yesterday at the camp of the Utah
Construction company on the line of
Thirtieth street and the Weber river, in
winch Frank Adair, an engineer, re
celVed two serious wounds on the head
at the hands of John Littlefield, waiter
at the camp
At noon when the men who are at
work on the new Sand Ridge cut off
were at dinner, Adair asked Littlefcid
Tor an additional supply of butter and
IN some way the men came to words,
which soon led to a fist fight Notwith-
standing that Adair has but one arm, he
bested his antagonist to such an extent
that LittIefield soon cried enough. When
Ada1r was sure that he had enough
10 satisfy an ordinary man he permitted
MN TO go. The waiter it is said, had no
sooner regained his feet than he grabbed
a can containing condensed milk and
threw it at Adair. The cap struck the
engineer on the head, cutting a cash
from which the blood flowed freely. Lit
tlefield was thoroughly enraged by this
time and seized a bread knife with which
he attacked Adair again. After he had
lnfhcted another wound on the head,
Adair succeeded in Wrenching the knife
from Littlefield and threw it away. Lit
tlefleld then seized a grubbing hoe and
was about TO attack Adair again when
the other members Of the camp inter
fered. Later Officer M. Malon went to
the camp and placed both men under ar
rest. Lfttleffeld was charged with as
sault with a deadly weapon and Adair
witness The latter's wounds were
dressed by DR.. E. c. Coulter, several
slIJches being necessary to close the
wounds.

fore in the contest for the Ogden post
mastership will be named, but that Col-
onel George NJ. Hanson private secre-
tary to Senator Sutherland will carry off

fight has been bitter ant will hardly
stop until the official announcement of
the appointment is made Those who
have been most prominently mentioned
for the place are Bishop Z. w. Wade,
eX-MayOr William Glasmann, Robert A.
Moves and T. II. Davis, the present in
cumbent At a meeting Of the executive
! body of the county Republican commit
tee held month or so ago. Mr.. Wade

| the fight was between Wade and Moves.
Hanson has been prominently connect

the recent municipal campaign he was
charged by ex-May0r Glasnnann with bad
faith, in not supporting the Republican
nominee for mayor, but aside from this
his RepubIcanism has. never been ques-
