As Lord Dundreary said, ''There are
some things which no fellow can find out, +"
and just exactly why jealousy should be re-
garded as proof of love is among these in
applicable problems. On the contrary, jeal-
ousy may and often does exist where there
is no love, excepting love of self, and, like
the canker. at the root of plant, is by far
more likely to destroy than to nourish true
love or stimulate it.
Among the dictionary definitions of
jealousy is that of envy. True, another is
jealous watchfulness, but this state of mind
implies fear, the uneasiness of uncertainty,

BUSINESS MAN SHOT
BY OLD CUE ARTIST
Seriously Wounds Creditor in Quarrel
Over Possession of Billiard
Table-Was instructor
d Of De Orc

SALT LAKE CITY, April S.--James
L. Malone, for eight years champion
pool player of the world, is in jail and
Nels Paulson, a business man, is in the
Holy Cross hospital suffering from a
serious bullet wound inflicted by Ma
lone. The shooting took place in the
sales rooms of j. P. Paulson & Co,
dealers in billiard supplies and bar fix
lures. Nels Paulson is local manager
for the firm, which has it's main store
in Denver.
The trouble between the men was
over their business relations. Malone,
who came to this city from Denver a
year ago, purchased the equipment for
a pool and billiard hall from the Paul
sons. He has since been in their debt,
and alleges they have dealt harshly
with him.
1t was an alleged attempt by PaulSon
to attach a billiard table that Malone
had sold to an officer at Fort Douglas
that took Malone to the Paulson store
this evening. He asserts that Paulson
seized him by the coat collar and was
leading him out of the store when he
shot. The bullet penetrated Paulson's
abdomen. making a wound that prob
ably will prove fatal.
Malone has played pool all over the
world. He lost the championship half
dozen years ago to one of his pupils,
de Orc. Before going into business in
Salt Lake, Malone gave instructions in
pool playing to students of the game in
Denver.

ANOTHER vENIRE OF
JURYMEN EXHAUSTED
CaIhoun's Trial Seems Destined to
Use Many Men for Trial Ser
vice Who Are Not
Yet Called

SAN FRANCISCO, April S.-Another
venire of prospective jurymen in the
case of Patrick Calhoun was exhausted
today without furnishing an occupant
for the single vacant seat in the jury
box that has confronted the attorneys
since April 2. The routine of the eX-
animation was prolonged to an extent
that has not been seen throughout the
last few weeks. Assistant District At
torney O'Gara and Attorney Stanley
Moore for the defense both showed a
disposition to renew the acute strife OF
session past. Mr. O'Gara had objected
to a question by Earl Rogers, who
sought to ascertain whether or not a
talesman had heard of the defendants
efforts to secure an early trial The
Juror was afterward challenged by the
defense, but Mr.. OGara took occasion
to inquire:
did you ever hear that Mr. Calhoun
did not begin to clamor for trial until
the books of the United Railroads had
been taken out of the state?"
Objection was made to this by Stan
ley Moore, who characterized 1t as mis-
conduct, and declared that the defense
would welcome an opportunity to go
further into this question at the proper
time.

WASHINGTON, April s.-Indications
point to n contest In the senate over the

subject by introducing an amendment to
remove the duty entirely from refined
sugar.
Most of the big contests over the tariff
bill have been fought in the committee

SHOOTS THREE:
ENDS OWN LIFE
STARTS TO KILL INHABITANTS
OF CITY BLOCK
Plumber in Illinois Whose Mind Had
Become Affected lnvades Homes
of Neighbors, Staying
One Woman
IBy Associated Press.

AURORA, ILL.,, April 9.-John Ander-
son, plumber whose mind became
affected, today armed himself with two
pistols, a shotgun and three bombs,
which he fastened to his person by
means of a harness. He started out to
kill the inhabitants of a city block in
which he said malicious gossip concern
ing himself had been circulated. He
killed one woman, narrowly missed
staying her husband, wounded another
woman and then committed suicide.
The dead:
MRS. JOHN McvICKER, shot
through heart as she ran toward the
room where her child was playing.
JOHN ANDERSON, committed sui
eide by blowing off his head with a
shotgun.
The injured:
Mrs. John Belford, flesh wound and
arm broken from pistol bullets.
John McVicker, husband of above,
scalp grazed by bullet.
Inhabitants Terrorized
Anderson's violent manner terrorized
scores of men to whom he had an
nounced his intentions. That his al
ready weakened mind had given way
completely was obvious. Doors were
locked and barred, and women and

the maniac walked along the street,
scrutinizing the different houses, as If
undecided where he would begin.
The first stop made by Anderson was
at the home of Mrs. John McVicker,
probably his oldest and best friend.
Mrs. McVicker and her husband had
repeatedly befriended Anderson, who
was a widower.
With a pistol in each hand Anderson
began firing. The first bullet grazed
Mr.. McVicker's scalp. Mrs. McVicker
ran toward the kitchen, where her four
children were playing She received Il
bullet In the heart and fell dead across
the threshold.
Anderson left the place apparently
satisfied, and proceeded to the home of
John Belford,> a few doors away. An
state without shadow of reason, of
circulating slanderous stories about
him.
Bombs Fail to Explode
Mrs. Belford and her mother Mrs.
Amanda Minton, 80 years old and blind,
were alone in the house, Anderson
opened fire with his pistol on Mrs. Bel
ford. One bullet inflicted flesh wound
and another shattered her arm, and
from her couch and began cropping her
way acrossl the room. The maniac,
however, paid no attention to her.
By this time the neighbors had be-
come aroused and men were gathered
in the street Anderson walked to the
window. and peered out. Then he re-
turned to the center of the room, picked
up his shotgun from the table on which
he had calmly placed it and blew off
his head.
Mrs. Minton in moving blindly about
had returned to the couch just as An
derson's headless body fell across it.
To the fact that he fell on this yield
ing surface Is due the failure of the
bombs strapped to his person to ex-

of his own death in case of accident to

VIZ ASHINGTON, April s. - When
w consideration of the Payne tar
iff bill was resumed by the
house today four committee amend
ments in the nature of verbal correc-
tions were taken up and adopted. The
mica schedule was stricken out anu
a new one substituted, providing that
manufactured mica should pay a
duty of cents a pound and 20 per cent
ad valorem and that mica, cut or
trimmed mica plates, and all manufac-
lures of mica, should pay 10 cents a
pound and 20 per cent ad valorem.
Steel ingots, blooms and slabs were
reduced from l cent to g OF cent a
pound. The ad valorem proposition on
boiler or plate iron or steel was stricken
out and the duty made specific, in some
cases the rate being reduced.
A vigorous fight was waged on an
amendment increasing the duty on
round iron or steel wire smaller than
16 gauge from IL to 1% cents pound.
1t was claimed the proposed increase
was an outrage on the farmer.
The committee amendment increas-
ing the duty on round iron or steel wire
smaller than No. 16 was voted down,
1876 to LAG, and in it's stead there was
adopted a substitute presented by Mr..
Clark of Missouri fixing the rate at
three -fourths of / cent a pound.
WrangIe Ensues
A long wrangle ensued in view of
the right to amend any other portion
