him fall that he had broken his neck.
When seen after the match, there was
blood in one ear. 1t was a bad fall
but Shimkus was able to leave the
dressing room about 20 minutes after
the match was over.
Under the rules, if a man gets a
fall like that and cannot come back to
the mat in 10 minutes then the match
goes to the man who is able to appear
on the mat; but Gardner offered to eX-
tend the time to 80 minutes. However,
after Shimkus had been taken TO the
dressing room DR.. Drew stated to the
audience he was not able to wrestle
again that evening and the referee gave
the match to Gardner
Mr.. Gardner then stepped into a
chair and thanked the crowd for the
support that it had given him in his
two matches here and said he would
like TO meet Shimkus again, when he
would hope TO throw him by the two
out of three fall route, rather than by
an accident. He said it is one of the

c. M. vogler Has Unusual Experience
While Driving on Main Street
Between Fifth and Sixth
Streets Last Night.
BULLET BROKE GLASS
II Missed the Driver Of the Car by a
Matter of Inches and Scattered
Glass Over the Occu
pants

It's getting downright hazardous Il
drive automobiles along Keokub
streets. 1t is not the danger from
reckless drivers; il is the danger
from reckless shooters.
A 22-caliber bullet cut its wa.
through the windshield of c. NJ Vog
ler's automobile last evening as he
was driving down Main street be
tween Fifth and Sixth streets, scat
tering glass over the occupants of the
car, but fortunately hitting none OF
the four people in the automobile.
Whether someone in passing auto
mobile discharged rifle or revolver
or whether il came from some OF
the buildings remains mystery.
Mr.. Vogler,s with his wife in the
front seat and his two children In
the rear seat, was driving down
Main street and was about in the
middle of the block. when he heard
something that sounded like an cleo
trio light globe breaking and felt the
shower OF glass splinters. He thought
someone in the car which was pass
ing had thrown an electric light
globe out and that it had broken
The affair was reported to the
police and an investigation made.
The accident happened between $3.50
and o'clock last night, on a bril-
liantly lighted block on Main street.
The police say they can find no one
who heard the noise of a gunshot.
For this reason it is believed that 1t
may have been spent bullet, fired
from some of the buildings in the
block for some cause or other
The bullet was coming with suffi-
cient force to make a clean cut IN
the windshield on the side from
which 1t entered The inside of the
was chipped and cracked
BY the bullet 1t entered the lower
part Of the windshield and was to the
eft of the driver. 1t evidently passed
,ut at the side of the car back Of the
middle stays, although this is only
4 surnise, as there were no marks.
It carried glass splinters clear to the
back seat where the Vogler girls
we're sitting.
Judging from the hole in the glass
md the general direction. the bullet
missed the driver by matter of
inches A --.2-caliber bullet just fits
INTO the hole. so it Is evident that it
vas made by shot from a gun or
life of this size.
