Yesterday Richard Erickson eele-

Erickson thinking THAT he was en-
tering his own home broke the door
Of the residence Of Ben Hart at 3o6
Fourth street north. 1t is very lucky
for him that Harris gun refused TO
explode. as Mr.. Hart heard the rack
ct and came rushing to the scene with
his gun in his hand and pulled the
trigger three times. The gun refused
to obey its masters command, and by
so doing probably save the life OF the
poor unfortunate. However, Mr. Hart
Jumped upon his man and gave him
a severe Seating and then kicked him
away from the house.

Erickson, too drunk to know what
had happened. climbed over the fence
in the rear OF the house and wandered
to the residence Of F. III. IngalIs.e 1t
happened that Ingalls, residence was
entered earlier in the evening and Mr..
ingalls, thinking the burglar had re-
turned to complete his job. waited his
opportunity and then sprang at his
antagonist and for the second time
Erickson took the count. When In
gals had his prisoner safe In his
hands the police were notified and
Erickson was taken to the station and
locked up.
1t was learned today that Erickson
was innocent of doing any harm. that
he was in search of his home. and he
was discharged from the custody Of
the police and allowed his liberty.
