rested for carrying concealed weapons at
Thirty-frst and II street and when Cap
tain Dworak and Detective Mcclure came
to investigate the case they found that
the bullet from Lochinsky's weapon mar
rowly missed hitting the daughter Of Peter
Lobisich.
Direct intention to shoot any one could
not be proven. but the fact was disclosed
that Loblslch Is a lonely Lithuanian, hv-
ing among colony OF Poles. History
shows that there was not any love lost be-

suspicion on the mind Of the court that
the Pole was out otherwise than amusins
himself by discharging the weapon. Con
