yesterday bronght before Recorder Baldwin on
the charge of having attempted to usher Mr.. Hv-
man Lewis IEto futurity about half an hour be-
fore he was ready. Ann and Hyman. it scems
had some difficulty in regard TO the root Of all
evII-money. Watching her opportunity, Ann arm
ed herself with shot gun, and the way she pep
perd Mr.. Lewis w.!h bird-shot. and friend who
was walking with him at the time, was a caution
to all sporsmen. Lewis and gentleman from
the land Of the Toutons, while, in all probability.
discussing some theory of gravi:ation, were fired

the Shell Road. About half a score of the shot
took affect in Mr.. Lewis head and sundrv per-
forations were made in the "trowsloons'' Of his

Of couple of larks, by means of a gun-bar-
rel, Ann was yesterday required TO give $1,000
security for her appearance before the First Dis
trict Court. Mr.. Lewis certainIy must have been

ded by An MEG ran. who discharged at him gun
loaded with "grape-shot." Some of the shot. he
said. still remained in his head; but with all their
searching neither the recorder nor the policemen
could find out their location. "a little more
grape, Capt. Bragg!"
