SHOT BY BURGLAR.
Chas. M. Blanchard Wounded at
His Home.
The Intruder Was Hit, but Got
Away.
HAD A PISTOL DUEL.
Several Shots Are Fired by Mr..
Blanchard.
Police Have Not Yet Made ANY
Arrests.

Chas. NJ. Blanchard, living at 1919
Topeka avenue. and yard forman
for the w. 1. Miller Lumber Co., had
an exciting experience with a burglar
the night Of the primary election. The
householder and the midnight prowl-
er exchanged pistol shots in the back
yard of the Topeka avenue home and
Mr.. Blanchard received bullet
through the f1eshy part of his right
arm, while the burglar left blood
stains on the ground where he stood
during the duel
Mr.. Blanchard had been up town
late during the evening watching the
State Journals bulletin of the election
returns. 1t was IL o'clock when he
reached home. His family was away
on visit. SO he opened up the house
and sat down on the front porch to
smoke awhile before retiring for the
night. He heard noise in the back
part of the house and On starting
through the hall to investigate he
nearly collided with a strange white
man, who ran out of the kitchen and
escaped from the house into the back
yard. Mr.. Blanchard gave pursuit
and called to the fleeing man. to halt.
The latter held on his way. and Mr..
Blanchard drew his revolver and took
a shot at the fugitive. The man con-
fired again. This bullet evidently took
effect, as the burglar yelled aloud in
pain and stopped to return the fire.
His first bullet struck Mr.. Blanchard
in the right arm. The brave house
holder shifted his pistol to his left
hand and fired his third shot at the
thug. The latter did not tarry to fire
a second shot, but quickly disappeared
in the darkness. a search Of the spot
next morning showed that the robber
had been struck by at least one bull
let, as blood was found at the place
where he stood when he stopped to re-
turn Mr.. Blanchard's fire. Nothing
was taken from the house.
Mr.. Blanchard reported the at
tempted theft and the duel to the po-
lice. but up to this time the latter
have found no trace of the wounded
burglar. The latter is described as be-
ing a white man of medium build,
weight about 160 pounds. '~s'+-'.'-~
