MAN ARRESTED
FOR SHOOTING
OF JOE BUCK

A man who gave his name as
Luther station was arrested by Sher-
iff Austin on Saturday of last week
on a charge of assault with intent
to commit murder. 1t is reported
that Station shot Joe Buck in the left
shoulder about three o'clock On Fri
day morning. At the preliminary
trial held the fore part of this week
station entered a plea of not guilty
and was bound over to the text term
Of court under a 81 1000 bond.
The story as IL has been told by
the officers is that Joe Buck had a
housekeeper working at his residence
Tor several months. This lady has
been separated from her husband for
some t. ne, making it necessary for
her to find employment. The man,
Luther station, has been working in
the oil fields but recently came to
Rawlins. About three o'clock on Fri
day morning he went to Joe Bucks
door and knocked. Buck answered
the knock and when he opened the
door the mar made a threat against
his life md told Buck to send out
the woman.
Buck then went into the house and
llhN bh laAt llbttl. ne OlllNtlN
state that after Buck turned on the
light station shot through the win
dow, the bullet striking Buck in the
left shoulder.
Later on in the morning Buck
reported the incident to Attorney
McMicken who sent Buck to the
Sheriff's office. Buck sat around
in the sheriff's office for some time
before he told the officers his bust
ness. They asked Kim If he had
been to the doctor and Buck answered
that he had not as yet. Possibly
about 1890 Buck went to the doctor
40 cut the lead out of his shoulder.
The lead had entered the upper part
of the shoulder and had lodged
down about six inches from the top.
At the present time it is reported
hat he is suffering no i'll effects
from the wound.
Sheriff Austin got on the trail of
station and on Saturday he was pick
ed up on the streets of RawNns and
lodged in the county jail.
