DASTARDLY ATTEMPT TO DE.
CHEROKEE LAWYER.
BOMB SKATERS PORCH
AND sTARTLEs THE TOWN
Officers Unable to Solve Mysterious
Outrage or Obtain Tangible Clue to
-Perpetrator - Gillette Was Former
County Attorney and May Have In
CURED Enmity During Prosecutions.

Cherokee, Sept. Back of the at
Mrs. Guy NJ. Gillette in the northwest
part of the city, there is mystery
which the officers have so far been un-
able to solve, tho the evidence is not
ate plan by some one who knew the
surroundings of the family and their
| usual habits
The northwest corner of the house is
shattered, tho but little damage is sus-
tanned by the house and about the yard
there were found pieces of fuse, a box
of caps and a couple of burned match
es. Above the porch on the north side
of the house is the sleeping room US
ually occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Gill
lette, but on this particular evening
they occupied room on the first floor,
in the back part of the house. Another
unusual condition of the Gillette home
on the evening in question was that
the faithful watch dog. which was in
the habit of sleeping on the porch was
permitted to sleep in the house and
hence was not able to warn its master
Of approaching danger.
Whole Town Awakened.
When the bomb exploded there was
rumbling sound which was heard all
over the city and neighbors coming to
the scene found the occupants of the
home on the sidewalk in front of the
house much confused and unable at the
time TO realize the significance of what
had occurred. The discovery of broken
windows and the disrupted floor of the
porch left no doubt as to the nature of
the disturbance. and the further dis
covery Of the fuse. caps and the hole
underneath the corner Of the porch,
fully interpreted the nature and pur-
pose of the act.
While the officers and Mr.. Gillette
are secretive about the incident While
the investigation is being made, sus-
picion is said to point to a man against
whom Mr. Gillette prosecuted case
while acting as county attorney Mr..
Gillette is now acting as city justice
by appointment to fiji out the term OF
his father and clear up business which
had continued over from the latter's
Administered ton and in this position also
he has had to dispose of cases where
enmity might have been engendered.
A Possible Clue.
About o'clock in the morning fol-
lowing the explosion there was heard
rapidly moving vehicle passing thru
the city and at the time it was asso-
ciated with the incident which shocked
all the people of Cherokee, but the Of
icers are not looking for any one re-
siding outside the city and arrests are
expected as soon a. present clues are
followed to their natural conclusion.
Guy NJ. Gillette is a popular attorney
about 80 years old and both he and his
wife are held in high repute turnout
the city and county. The attempt on
their lives has been the sole topic of
! conversation since the unfortunate oc-
currence and universal sentiment de-
mands that the guilty niscreant be run
to earth, caught and punished.

Special to Times Republican.
