Lizard Lives In
Stomach of Soldier

Mauch Chunk, Penn, Feb. 10.-A
relic of his soldering days in Porto
Rico, when he was private in Penn
sylvania regiment in the Spanish-Am-
erican War, was separated from Ber-
nard McNulty by a physician here
and McNulty is decidedly glad of 1t.
1t wasI a lizard almost six inches
long, which apparently had been the
cause Of stomach troubles with which
McNulty had suffered ever since he
left Uncle Sans service early in 1889.
!, Saturday night McNulty was kept
awake by toothache, and when the
troublesome molar was removed Sun
day morning he lost SO much blood
that he consulted his family doctor.
The latter gave him medicine which
caused coughing and resulted in the
election of the lizard.
The former soldier is sure the ami
NAL had been his steady companion
since he was in Porto Rico, where he
drank water from wayside streams
and anywhere else that II was obtain
able. Monday he said he felt really
well again for the irst time In n
years.

family feuds that has ever taken place
in the history Of the state came to a
climax last Monday morning a little
after Z o'clock at the o. e. Hammond
farm home one mile east of the village
of Kampeska. AS result of gun
fight two men are dead and one is
seriously if not fatally wounded at
the Watertown Hospital.
History of Crime.
In 1887 James Jenkins and his wife
located on a quarter section Of land
which was s'ae scene Of the late trag-s
edy. Several children were born to
this couple on this farm. About
dozen years ago Mr.. jenkins died
leaving his wife and four sons and two
daughters to survive him. The child
rem we're all small at that time and
the widow was in very poor circum-
stances and was unable to work the
farm. She became acquainted with
O. E. Hammond who was at that time
years ego married him. Mr.. Ham
mond was good strong man and a
willing worker and he soon had the
old homestead in pretty good shape.
He erected a new house few years
ago and enlarged the barns and the
neighbors all say that he was one of
the hardest working men in the en-
tire township. Everything seemed to
20 fairly we'll with the family until
about FIVE years ago when the child
rem had grown up. 1t seems that Mr..
Hammond did not want the children
to stay at home, claiming that they
would not do their share of the work.
The first husband had died without
leaving a will and it was necessary
to wait until the youngest child was
of age so that the estate could he pro-
bated. There were three boys in the
family and they felt that the place
was their home and that they had d
perfect right to stay there as long as
they desired. On the other hand Mr.
Hammond felt that as long as he had
built I'D the farm and had his earnings
for years invested in the farm
he was master of the situation. o.
course. the mother naturally stuck te
the children and that made bad feel
ings between her and her husband
Matters grew worse from time to tins
until the climax last Monday morning
The Tragedy.
Clifford jenkins, aged twenty-fou
years, was shot in the back with 81
calibre revolver by his step father
@. e. Hammond. He fell over into
wood box in the kitchen and expired
Immediately. The bullet entered tn
hack at about the sixth rib and pene
trated his heart.
Az near as can he learned of tn
terrible affair, James Jenkins tn
other brother, was in the front room
when he heard the shot and when n
opened the door he was shot in tn
neck near the windpipe by Hammon
with the same revolver. 1t appear
that Hammond fred three more shot
but ali shots went wild with the e.
ceptioa of the one that took effect !
the young mans neck.
The Death Struggle.
The tight to the death was on the
in earnest. Hammond had emptie
his gun and before be could re-loa

hung onto him as close as he eoul'
The infuriated man beat him over e

ed away.
James Jenkins Ante-Motren State
e I'D ment
Before James Jenkins, the wounded
man, was taken to the hospital at Wa.
tertown he gave his ante-mortem
statement to the authorities. He said
that Hammond shot his brother as
he stood in the kitchen with his back
turned toward his assailant, and that
as he stepped from the other room
Hammond shot him in the neck. He
stated that Hammond emptied his
gun at him. They clinched and Ham
mond beat him over the head and
shoulders with the butt end Of the
pistol. He says that either his moth
er or his sister came running down
stairs and handed him the shot gun
and that he shot Hammond three
times, killing him. @
This, as near as we can ascertain
Is the story of the injured man in his
ante-mortem statement, as the a;isiioIIi as;;iissiioII +
ties would not give out any statement
made by him. 49,,
Some Question.
A good many people who have beer
used to handling shot guns cannot un
, derstand how it would be possible fol
wounded man to get shot gun In
position to discharge it when he was
SO colsely pressed by the enemy
However, it is possible that the wount
ed man may have shot Hammond, az
he claims. -
sl;slss.s- coroner's Verdict.
I Coroner Magee impanelled a jur.
to sit on the case and the jury render
ed a verdict that Clifford Jenkins
came to his death from revolver sho
fired by O.; Z. Hammond. Also tina
o. E. Hammond came to his death b.
three gunshots fired from the hand
of James Jenkins.
L. J. Shaw, the undertaken, wa
summoned and after the coroner's in
quest, took the remains to his ur
dertaking rooms, where they wer
viewed by hundreds OF citizens.

few years, but that was voted down.
1t is estimated that over 10000 peo-
pie have been driven outside of San

OF transportation and public utility en-
tensions within the city limits.

most beautiful in the world and the
necessary pet of commercial destiny.
We must drop our recent attitude of
misery timidity-the craven fear of
spending a few dollars for the benefit
of the future"
There was an immediate cry for ac-
tom 1t was finally suggested that
the mayor appoint a committee of one
thousand representing all walks of
life and activity, TO conduct an open
forum for the good of the city. All
questions of civic importance were to
be brought up before the thousand,
and threshed out In other words this
great committee was to be one of re-

cry was to be For the good of the

to undo the potential harm done to
San Francisco by its recent elections.

The mayor has already responded
by stating that he will soon appoint a
