When the alarm of fire aounded
Monday night a number of ahots
were fired near the club house,
and it is said that the men who
fired those shots came from the
audience. Why did these men(?)
tote their guns with them to the
entertainment? Was they afraid
to attend auch a gathering, com-
posed largely of ladies and child-
ren, without carrying a gun with
them. No man who poasessed a
particle of manhood would carry
igun with him to a gathering
i where ladies and children attend,
Its a misdemeanor to carry a gun
and ought to be punishable by a
heavy fine and stiff term in jail,
which would tend to wipe out the
evil. The duty of every good cit-
izen demands of him an effort to
! bring the fellow who totes a gun
I and the grand jury together, then
watch Judge Beauchamp do the
rest, and did we possess the in-
formation, somebody would be
' indicted for Monday nights
i shooting.^
