GIRL VICTIM 0F JEALOUS LOVER
 IMPROVING

th' puIct which lodged in the left lower limb of Maggie Martin, tho vic. tim of Leonard Carroll's insane ical. ousy, had been removed, and that the pIucky little patient was in fair way to recovery. unless blood poisoning should develop.
 Tho other two wounds which the girl received, one in the right breast and tho other in the right arm, nrc not at all dangerous, being little more than flesh wounds, and while she suf. fcrs considerable pain from them the attending physician anticipates no ser. ious results. Tho wound in the left leg, several inches above tho knee, was tho most dangerous of the three, the bullet lodging in tho flesh.
 At first it was decided not to at. tempt to remove the bullet, as it has been demonstrated that unless the lead lies close to the surface or in n vital spot, tho patient is liable to suffer more serious results from the probing for the bullet than from tho bullet re. maining in the body, but yesterday af. tcrnoon, while dressing the wound, the bullet was located, and at once re. moved.
 Al the inquest held over the remains of the unfortunate lover, yesterday af- tcrnoon, it developed that he had shot himself twice, both wounds being in inc right breast, near the side, and about two inches apart. As the pistol, six-cnambcrcd nffair, had two cart. ridges remaining in it when found near the body of the suicide, it is pro. sumcd that only two shots were fired at the girl. The physician in attend. ancc states that it is possible that one bullet made the two wounds in the breast and arm of the girl, in which event the four shots are accounted for. While the doctor was dressing the girls wounds, the night of the trag. cdy, she convcrscd with those around her, in the presence of several news. paper men, concerning the happenings which led up to the shooting, and of inc shooting itself. She said Carroll mad long wanted her to marry him, but that she had prcsistontly refused, and that he had often threatened to kill himself, or both of them. Her story .c t.. t.. Lin h.r Ia told in yesterdays Journal. Miner
 When informed that Carroll had killed himself, she said "Did nc kill the COW and calf, tooi' Later she cx' pressed regret that he had shot him self, saying she was sorry he did SO and that she didn't think God would hold 1t against him, as he was not nc countablc, in his then frame of mind for what hc did.
 Carroll was 2s years of age, and ! man of powerful physique, being feet, 7M inches tall, necessitating th' sending to Los Angeles for n special, constructed casket to accommodate thu remains. Funeral services over thu deceased will take place Thursda, morning, at 1O:3O o'clock, at Ruffner' chapel, interment in the Citizens cem ctery.
 Relatives of the dead man yester day said thnt the girl had promised t' marry him and that they mad been en gagged for some time. It was thei intention to marry and keep house il Humboldt, to which place Carol moved the girls personal effects, earl. in July. He had also bought house hold furniture in preparation for tn event, which did not take place. O Sunday, July l4, the couple left Hun boldt, announcing that they were goin to Jerome. Instead they came to Prc' eott.
 Relatives of the unfortunate man ar authority for the statement that 10 several years he has contributed to th support of Mrs. Newbould and he daughter, and they discrcdited th statement that he insisted upon bccon ing n boarder with them. On tho cor trary, they are of the opinion that a' vantage was taken of the young man desperate love for the girl, and that thus expended all of his means npo them. In support of the declaratio that tho young man was Provid'r f' the family, it is pointed out that the day before the tragedy he order' bill of groceries from Dreyer
 Blumberg, to be sent to the Newborn mousse. Mrs. Newbould denies that supported her and her daughter "i claims that the provisions no h'
