MURDERoUS ASSAULT.
Wounding Of Lewis Lnndy, Colored.
and Thomas McCreery-other
Indictments Reported.

| Representative James Thomas Hef1in of
Alabama was indicted today by the local
grand jury for assault with dangerous
| weapon. The indictment is in three
| counts two of which relate to the shoot
ing of Lewis Lundy. the colored man with
| whom Mr.. Helm had dispute on street
| car March 81 last. The third count
| charges an assault on Thomas MCCreery
of New York. horseman. who was stand
| ing on the sidewalk and was struck by a
, bullet from Mr.. Hef1ins pistol
The first count charges that the repre-
sentative assaulted Lundy with pistol by
| striking and beating him over the head
| with the Wea pom. In the second count
Mr. Hehin is charged with shooting the
| pistol at the negro and injurinG him with
| A bullet.
| Lundy was taken to the Emergency
| Hospital after the shooting and remained
! two or three days under treatment.
Shortly after his release he instituted suit
| i'm the District Supreme Court against Mr..
Hefiin to recover $20.0O0 damages. His
| counsel recently had disagreement with
Lundy as to the manner of conducting
the case and ordered the suit dismissed.
Mr.. McCreery developed a case of lock-
jaw from the effects of the wound re-
ceived at the shooting and was extremely
i'll at George Washington University Hos
pital for several weeks. DR.. Helm o.
Alabama brother of the repre-
sentative. assisted in the care of the pa
tcnt. who recently was able TO leave the
institution. Ii was rumOred that In ad-
dition to paying hospital bills and for
medical attention Mr. Heflin made mon
etary settlement with M McCreery
The reported amount of a settlement was
denied by the representative.
Statement by Mr.. Helm.
When seen by Star reporter today
Representative Heflin said:
There would have been no indictment
if, It had not been political year. A
friend of mine sat behind two men on a
street car the other day who were talk
ing about my case. One of these men
said that the case against me would be
pushed to the limit in order that the Dis
trict of Columbia delegation to the re-
publican convention might be instructed
for Senator Foraker
IL believe the jury will acquit me-
have fifteen or more reliable witnesses
who will show that | only shot in self-de-
Tense. The fact that the negro afterwaro
was found to have committed or TO have
attempted TO commit an assault on a
woman should have convinced the grand
jury of his cFaracter.' +" 80

Ger. alias George w. Moore, alias George

 The weather was very disagreeable, the train leaving here in drizzle of snow, and arriving at Stafford just ahead of sharp rainstorm. The rain ceased at noon, but the wind stayed up, and the excitement of one of the poorest games seen for a long time in this vicinity was hardly enough to keep the chill out of the bones of the large crowd of spectatorsh The score was IA to 6 in favor of Solomonville, the Eagles leading in errors to the tune of II to 2.
 There was good excuse for the many errofs in the strong wind which blew during the entire game, making it very difficult to judge a ball with anything like accuracy.
 The excursionists numbered full four hundred and IL is thought if the morning had been pleasant the train of five coaches would have been unable to handle the crowd.

FINDS LOVER
 HAVING CRAZY
FINDS HER LOVER RAvING maniac
GIRL FROM WISCONSIN ARRIVES IN CITY TO HEAR TERRIBLE
 NEWS.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 2.--A touch ing scene was enacted at the Detention hospital yesterday afternoon, when Miss Mabel Kilmer, who had come all tie way from Wisconsin to marry the lover of her school days. arrived to find him strapped to a cot in the insane hospital, a raving maniac. Joseph Scollard her sweetheart, raised himself on his bed as the girl entered the room, and as he looked up into the face which haunted him between his terrible dreams, look of reason flashed over his face and for a moment he recognized her, but the delirium elutched him before he could speak and the girl was led weeping from tho room.
 Miss KiIlmer and her mother, who arrived from Medford, Wis, yesterday, were met at the train by the relatives of the unfortunate youth, who told her as gently as possible that her lover g mind had suddenly become deranged, and that he was confined at the Deten- tion hospital pending his examination by the insanity commissioners.
 The girl, however, refused to be con vnced of her swcethcart's s condition until she had seen him serself, and begged to be taken to him, only to find that what they said was true.
 It is believed that Scollard, who is a decorator, and who has been taking al correspondence course to fit him for becoming an engineer, lost his mind through overstudy, as he was in the habit of boring over his books far into the night, when he should have been resting after his days hard work.
 Scollard formerly lived Ii Medford, where he went to school with Miss Kilmer, and both became so attached to one another than when he left her four years ago he carried with him her promise that she would some day be his bride. The two young people have cor responded ever since, and it was final ly arangd that she should come to San Francisco with her mother, that they might be married. The wedding was to have taken place yesterday.
 Scollard will be placed in private sanitarium, where it is believed that rest and quiet may restore him to san ity and the waiting arms of the girl who anxiously awaits his recovery.

so WRITES ARDENT LOVER TO PATERSON, N. J., SWEETHEART
Says If She Won't Be His Own He Will Blow Her Head of-Young Wo- man Demands Police Guard After Series of Strange Letters.

NEW YORK, May l.-Thc Paterson, \. J., police were confronted with a queer problem when protection was asked for Miss Virginia Cavanero.
 Miss Cavanero, one of the handso. nest girls in the city, and once candi date for queen of the Mardi Gras carni- val, is threatened by some mysterious man who is infatuated with her, and who declares in writing that he will "blow her head off" if she does not marry him. The girl is seriously i'll at her home as the result of the threats.
 Miss Cavanero was brought up on the plains and tanned many broncho, but her eoura had failed in this emer- gency, and last night police protection was afforded her, detectives lowering around her home
 The employer of the young woman. Chris Stumford, owner of the big Para disc confectionery store on Main street IS also in danger. He received letter which set forth that if he did not 'cease attentions to the pretty young saleswoman, his head would also be blown off. The letter further commando ed that he give $200 to Miss Cavanero, which in turn would be ordered to turn over to the writer. Stumford has en- gagged private detectives, and yesterday they guarded the entrance to his es- tablishment.
 The police have the letters which are signed CA Gentleman" but they have absolutely no clue to the author, who states in the missives that he has passed the girl many times and has be come angry because she does not no- tice him.
 Miss Cavanero does not know who wrote the threatening letters. She does not know anyone who "passed her. and whose greeting she did not return. Her employer is equally ignorant of the writer's identity. He is in no fear, however, as yesterday he went about we'll armed.
 The girl is a crack shot with the rife and the revolver, having learned their use on the plains, but the strain of two weeks, during which she also has gone about armed, has told upon her, and her nerves have given way.

Opinion of Globe Grocer of 584 North
 Broad Street, Globe

Globe Arizona, May l, 1908 To the Public:
 have lived in Fl Paso for some time, and own a great deal of property there.
 consider the property "Altura Park and Military Heights" in Ell Paso owned by McCord Orpin, easily the first residential portion of the city, Fl Paso can only expand that way and has grown beyond their ad dtons. The district is served by two electric car nes with cent fare and is reached in fifteen or twenty minutes ride from the business center of the town. consider investment made there extremely good one. There are great many handsome homes in the locality, and the Country Club and Military Institute now building in that neghborhood will prove great impetus to the up-buiding of the two additions.
