the ground. The sisters saw a good
opportunity and set upon him to do
SO, one using woman's most practical
and ever ready weaken, the shoe.
The officer. in endeavoring to pro-
tect his prisoner received a blow on
the nose from the slipper that was

of sufficient force to break the off,

tage of by Kenny, he beating a hasty
retreat up stairs and barricading the
door. At this stage of the proceed
ings. Chief Mcdonnell appeared upon
the scene. The door Of the room
