About the first words ho said as the ollicials entered were1 did it myself - self i no ono else is to blame. " Dr. licach * Icy reported that the pistol had evidently been held just back of the temple and pointed in n slanting direction , the shot culling the temple artery and doing no further damage. This was confirmed by the wounded man'a assertion that ho had pushed Uio bullet out from muter the skin , and the subsequent finding of the ball , a 33 calibre , on the floor. A few stitches repaired the damage , and put the patient , barring a few scratches , in as peed shape as hu was before the shooting. U'iie landlady , in giving her version of the all'air , said tiie man , who is a stranger to her , went there yesterday morning about 10 o'clock , and after Making a few minutes said ho had been drinking hard , and asked to be allowed to lie down and slrep awhile.

The man was identified by Oilicer Malone as J\ Lawrence , of Crcston , Iowa , married , and a 1J. & M railway engineer by occu pation. Ills reason for trying to take- his life , if ho had any reason , is not known , us ho refuses to say anything uxcepl that ho alone is responsible for the transac tion. COL. I'OI.K'S UKATII. Colonel Jlurr II. Polk , who died in this city Saturday , was ono of Lincoln's old est and best "known citi/ens. Anativoof Kentucky , where lie was born in 183r , ho entered the Union army at the outbreak of the war , serving until peace was de clared in 1805 , at which time ho wore a colonel's shoulder straps. From 1808 until 187 ! ) Colonel Polk was a resident of Vicksburg , Miss. , and largely engaged in the cotton business. When ho came to Lincoln some six years ago ho bought a handsome house on L strdct , and in stalled there Ins family a wife and three children who are to-day sincere mourn ers at the bier of a lamented parent. Colonel Folk's death was duo to heart disease , the symptoms of wnich wore first apparent two years ago. In the hope that a change of scene and climate might have a beneficial oll'oet Colonel Polk last winter made n trip down the Missis sippi to Ills old haunts , but the hand of death was already upon him , and oven before his return had started to foreclose Ids claim. The funeral will take place from the family residence Monday at 2:30 : p. m. SALK OP THE QII.LlSt'IE LOTS. The sale of what is known as the Gil- lispio property , six lots in block 153 , this city , will take piano on Thursday next. These lots , as is well known , came into the possession of the state some years back at a valuation of $4,500. They are now appraised at an average of $2.225 each , and will probably bring something more than that. The resolution under which they are to bo sold requires that tiioy bo offered separately , and knocked down to the highest bidder. One-tenth of the purchase money will bo required in cash , and the balance can run for twenty years at 0 per cent interest. There are three lots fronting on G anil Sixteenth streets , and three on G and Seventeenth. Ono of the latter is what Is known as the Glllispie homestead , and on it is the old frame building where , for nearly nineteen years , the family have lived , the father and mother growing old , and the children growing to man and womanhood. This lot and house lias been appraised at 50,000 , and as it is Mrs. Gillespic's wish to bid it in at as near that figure as possible , thorojs a general understanding among in tending buyers that they will not jump the price on her.

Caustin , of Illinois , which was to have come off Fri day night , lizzlwl out owing to the failure of IlulVman to provide a suitable track. Caustln claims that the arrangements were left to Huffman , nnd that the latter neglected to have a sawdust track made , and consequently the race had to bo de clared off.
