S FRANK STOUT SHOT.

A Bullet From No One Knows Where

Makes a Bad Wound.

Among the many strange accidents which happen we have one to record this morning which is really peculiar as well as serious. Yesterday afternoon Frank Stout and Jerome Wray were at work on the roof of Stout's house on Park avenue, when Stout suddenly threw up his hands and uttered a sharp cry, that some thing had struck him in the breast. An examination revealed a ragged hole just below the left nipple from which the blood was flowing freely, The hole was large enough that Wray inserted his forefinger and tried to discover what had made it. He was unsuccessful in his attempt. The missile, whatever it was, supposed to have been a bullet of large caliber, had struck a rib and been deflected from its course, or Mr. Stout would not now be alive. It followed the rib backward and lodged somewhere near the back. The wounded man was taken to Dr. Ensminger who probed deep into the wound but failed to reach the missile which tore the ugly looking hole The wound while not dangerous at all, is painful and may possibly give Mr. Stout considerable trouble. Xo gun was heard to lire, and the thing, whatever it was came unheralded. It must have been a bullet which carried farther than was intended and hit something not aimed at.

ASSESSORS AND DOGS.

How the Wily Lovers of DORS

Dodge the Officials.

Last year the assessors turne 1 in $846 collected on dog tax. So far this year there have been 450 d"gs discovered by the official book bearers in Union township, and 200 of them have not been paid for. The law on dogs is far more severe than on grand larceny or even murder, in the state of Indiaua, and if the tax is not paid by June 1st, the assessor will turn the blanks over to the prosecutor who will at once have warrants issued for the offending dog owners, and they will have to dance up in a proper manner.

There are many things connected with the listing of canine property. One man had forgotten he owned a dog, and failed to give him in to the assessor. Gabriel Drake discovered the fact and went after the owner, '"Yes" said the disgruntled man, "My brother got mad, and has given the snap away, and he has three dogs of his own." So Gabe went after him and captured several more sequestered dollars. Another man took a great fancy to his boarder's dog and coaxed him to leave the canine behind, which he did. Then the law was passed and many efforts were made to rid the premises of Fido. He hired boys at four different times to take the beast to the creek and drown him, but four times the dog came back. At last he was so incensed that he took poor doggy to the river and drowned him in cold blood with his own hand and so reported to the assessor. So there could be a long story written.

The Willis Gallery has won all the medals worth having in the last three years. These prize pictures are now cheaper than ever.

Zack Williams.

The state conference of the A. M. E. church was in session Wednesday at Noblesville, Zack Williams being delegated from the Crawfordsville church. Every county seat in Indiana was thus represented. Two delegates were elected to attend the conference at Columbus, Ohio., as representatives of the state. On the third ballot Zack Williams was chosen as one and William Kearsey, of Indianapolis, the other delegate.
