A limn in the house , the report of n
gun and thuinvmlor'H futile attempt to

.lolin Leonard , of South Norfolk , u
terrible fright us she was about lo n > -

It the houHonf neighbor nnd bring upon
jp her n norvourt faint shortly after. The
man Imil loft the house when efforts
wore made to locate him , There IH no
i clue to his Identity. Ho took nothing
with him.
Mr. Leonard Is n brnkoman on the
Klkhorn nnd was out on the road. Mrs.
Leonard IB not naturally of a nervous
disposition , has neighbors within cullIng -
Ing distance nnd has never boon nfrald
to stay alone. Last night nho prepared
to retire about l > o'olook. She had
locked the doors for the night , turned
down the light and wns just in the act
of raising n curtain to let in the broo/.e ,
when she was suddenly dn/.od by the
report of n gun behind hor. Startled
nt first into immovability , the little
woman quickly regained her wits ,
dashed toward the door , unconsciously
turned the key and lied , screaming , to
the homo of her neighbor , Mrs. F.
Sprechoracro8s the street. The strange
visitor followed , slammed the door and
disappeared. Exhausted from her
fright , Mrs. Leonard was for sorno tlmo
nuablo to toll what had happened. The
police were notified nud mmlo a search
through the railroad yards but there
were no moans of Identity , and a great
many strangers were soon in the
vicinity yesterday.
Mr. nnd Mrs. Leonard have been
keeping house only about six weeks and
ho is on the road n great deal of the
timo. Mrs. Leonard has always laughed
at the idea of being afraid. "After this ,
however , " she said this morning ,
shall uover stay alone again. "

Postmaster John R. Hoys recently ad
dressed to the secretary of the treasury
at Washington letters of inquiry con
cerning the status of the proposed public
building to bo erected in this city , which
were referred to James K. Taylor ,
supervising archletot , who replied that
"the sketch plans for this building are
now under way. These plans , together
with the estimates , must bo submitted
to the cabinet board for formal ap
proval , as required by law , before
actual worklngjdrawlugs can bo started ,
It will require , after such approval has
boon obtained , nt least throe mouths to
complete the working drawings , after
which the specifications will bo prepared -
pared and the work placed upon the
market. A period of at least six months
will therefore elapse before the actual
work of construction eau bo begun. "
The Sioux City Gas and Electrical
company finds that the basis for the
greatest amount of complaint from
customers regarding poor lights is that
iu a spirit of economy they will use
old and burned out lamps long after
their usefulness as light producers is
past and then complain to the company
because they are provided with poor
lights. It is said that after a 10-caudle
power lamp has burned for 500'Jor COO
hours Its power will bo'reducedjto eight
or ten caudle power and the exhausted
lamp uses just aa much electricity as it
did when it was iiew. The company
proposes to remove this cause of com
plaint by supplying now lamps free of
cost and replacing the old ones as soon
as they begin to fade from their original
brightness. This will bo ? a largo ex
panse to the company but they expect
to got their pay in credit fo'rj better
service 'and ridding themselves , 'of un
fair complaint of furnishing poor light.

pose. The committee has succeeded iu

vide a three days' entertainment that
will bo well worth attending by the pee
pie of this section of the state. Already

inquiries regarding concessions , and

ions is now under way.

publican candidate for congress , stating

tion , loading business men of the city

et aud with n good partner should do
something in doubles. Bncholz has a
reach that ought to put an ordinary man
out of business , Stitt is a shark at the
net and Mapes serves a ball that is hard
to get. Reynolds has a great back hand
stroke and Salter uses the Lawf9rd with
effect. Matches will be arranged to suit
