Petty thieving is getting to lie a
dangerous ocupatlon In western Ne
brnska. Not long ago a man In Ban
ner county who hud been missing
things from his cabin set a gun so
it would be discharged when the door
was opened. During his absence, as
the result of trying to get in, a
young man was shot, from the ef
fects of which he afterwards died.
The Dalton Herald last week tells
or a man near that town that had
been missing chickens, and decided
to rM the thief if he could. He
fixed a shot gun loaded with No. 4
shot :;i such a manner that when
the door was opened far enough to
allow the person to enter the trigger
would be pulled by a string. About
11 o'clock that night he heard the
report or the gun and In an instant
was out ot bed, and out he went. He
heard some one running through the
' o-.nfleld a siiort distance from the
house. After making investigations
the only sign of the thief that could
be found was the rim or a black hat
which hadthecrown shot completely
orr. The man who was undre the
hat when the crown vtl blown f
probably had the closest call he had
ever expericm .d up to that time.
Just how badly he was injured was
not learned, as no report has been
made as yet or unyone getting in
jured in that manner. The man that
set the gun says that he bus chang
ed its position slightly so that the
next time it will get mure than the
hat.
