THREE HURT IN SHOOT
INC AFFAIR AT LAGNA.
ice Sargent, VIM. Vanderlese and VIM.
Lobner shot by John Upton in Quar-
rel at Laona Wednesday night.

John Stark and John Upton of Stark
Settlement, about three miles west OF
Laona came to town last night with
the evident intention of causing trouble
as both men were armed, Stark with a
large knife and Upton with 80 caliber
revolver. They imbibed quite freely in
the early part of the evening and got
quite noisy along about $50. Upton
came into Sargent's saloon and started
the rumpus about 1000 when Joe Sar-
gent, who was tending bar at that time
asked the patrons to leave as it was
closing time Nearly all left the place.
Upton had brought in package con-
tanning meat and could not find it when
closing time came
Stark, who was then pretty full, ac-
cused Joe of taking the bundle and Joe
jumped the bar aud started hand to
hand encounter with Stark. 1t seems
that Stark had already opened his knife
and when Joe proceeded to thrash him
he also Knocked the knife from Stark S
hand. During this time VIM Wander
lese, a machinist for the Connor Lum-
Der Co., tried to part the two and in
doing SO got into quarrel with Upton
and it was in this quarrel that he was
shot by Upton, the bullett entering his
breast and lodging in uhe back of his
neck.
Stark and Upton then started to run
away when Joe followed and caught up
with them near the railroad track and
again had an encounter with them Tip
ton fired at Joe, the bullett passing
through the calf of his leg. He fired
again and this time the bullet went
through the fleshy part of the thigh.
VIM. Lobner, who as witness to the
scene also received shot from Upton
the ball entering jnst above the knee.
Len Sargent, not knowing that any
body was hurt told Joe to let them go
and not to stir up any more trouble.
1t is thought that Stark and Upton
then proceeded on their way home, but
when Police Chapman went to get the
men Thursday morning only Stark was
to be found.
DR.. Elliott was called and dressed the
wounds of the men who were shot but
upon examination it was found that
Vanderlese was the only one seriously
injured.
DR.. Noer of Wabeno was called here
Thursday and stated that Vanderlese
was in very serious condition and at
the time little hope was entertained
for his recovery. The other two men
are not in any serious danger as they
only received flesh wounds.
Police Chapman went out to Stark s
settlement Thursday morning and ar
rested John Stark and he was brought
before Justice Frank Lonier and was
bound over to the circuit court on a
bond of s400 which was furnished by
Levi Starks and John Hutsell.
Undersheriff Purdy of Crandon ar
rived here Thursday morning and ex-
poets to organize posse to search for
Upton who it is thought is in hiding
in the woods near this place, and it is
expected that he will be captured in a
short time.
/ LATER.
1t was reported later Thursday that
Wm. Vanderlese seemed to be resting
easier and chances for his recovery are
more hopeful.
