State Prison Makes Money.

The Connecticut state prison for
the fiscal year ended September 80
1906, established new record of rev.
enues. Earnings from productive la,
Dor aggregated $57,411, while receipts
from various other sources swelled
the total income to $61,O15. This
showing, representing nearly "A per
cent. of the. operating expenses of the
institution, surpasses the income ex-
hibit OF any previous year, and en-
abled the prison management, despite
the high cost of supplies, to limit to
$22,S61 its drafts upon the state treas
ury.

A SHOOTING AT MINOT
Residence Was Mistaken for Blind
Pia-Wm. o'Lsary Shot
by Mrs. Hines.

Minot Optic; Mistaking the home
Of Mrs. Florence Hines. 211 West
First street, for blind pig, gang
of men assailed the place, last even
ing. In self protection Mrs Hines
drew a revolver and shot William
O'Leary In the lobe OF the right ear.
| The bullet entered the right side of
the neck and made it's exit through
the other SIDE O'Leary called fran
tically for help. Several men ran to
his assistance They found him ly-
ing in the gutter opposite the Olson
block. He was crying at the top of
his voice that he had been shot in the
ear.
| 1t seems that the house now occu-
pied by Mrs. Hines was once occupied
by Pady Boyd, recently indicted for
drumming a blind pig. The men had
apparently visited the place before. A
party of six, according to a member
of the Hines family, applied for adj
mittance to the place shortly before
1 10 o'clock. They had store of IL
quor with them and demanded that
\ they be allowed to enter and drink it.
Mrs, Hines refused. Then she claims
that one of the party threw one of the
bottles at her head. 1t missed her and
the contents went suffering about
the party ripped a post off the front
porch while others ran to the back
of the house in an attempt to force
an entry by that route. Failing to
get in, bottle of beer was hurled
Through the kitchen window
/ Another attack was made on the
front entrance. 1t was then that Mrs.
Hines grabbed a revolver which she
keeps handy when her husband, who
/ Is an engineer, is out on the road. She
fired into the crowd which scattered
in terror, O'Leary, whom she says
was the ringleader, was the only one
shot.
Two men rushed to aid him when
they heard his call for help. He was
hurried down First street to DIR. Win
dells office screaming all the way. II
was found upon examination that the
lobe of his right ear was pierced and
that the bullet then took it's course
through his neck. He was removed
to the city hospital where 1t was stat.
ed this morning that he would recover
l Mrs. Hines was PROSTATE this morn
ing as the result of the terrible scare
She was alone with her family wher
the gang of hoodlums attacked hel
place.
After the shooting she was nearly
frantic and ran to the back of the
house and threw the revolver into tho
back yard. Judge Murray made a par.
tial examination into the affair las
night securing the revolver No one
has been placed under arrest as yet
II is likely that some charges will b,
made.
