Inuo been directed In a covert way. Noono
one has ebsa > ed to act boldly , no attempt has
been uudo to openly repeal the law , ami thu

gaining stii'ncth , and that by l&sS advocacy
of the law will be elements of strength to can

Is giving him gi owing strength
nnd his rcnoinlnatlon In isss Is predicted by
the leading men ot the democratic inily In

grnm to the Ilin : ] This motnlng about halt
past ten o'clock three pistol shots were heard.
In quirk succession In the Herald olllco on
Sixth nnd IMiiiund stieets , nnd n man wns
seen to run out on thu street tinning west , on
Kdmond , nnd when opposite Hergmaii's fur-
nltnie stoio to stop , mil a rcvolvcr'to Ids head
and lire. Ho fell on Ihu pavement on his
back. It vv is seen that the 111111 was Dr. S
A. Klclimond of "Samaritan ncivlno" no-
toilety. The ball , fiom n thlitj-elght callbro
revolver , had stiuck above Hie teinplu nnd
glanced around the frontal bouo. It then
transpired that the Ih s | tbrco shots thed In
thelleiald eounttng loom had done thulr
fatal woik and that Col. J. W. Stiong , man
aging editor of tlio Herald , was fast stiffen
ing In death.
W. M. Shepherd , business manager of tlio
Heiald , was seated nt Ids desk behind the
counter busily engaged In wilting. As soon
as ho hcaid tlm shots ho looked up to sco
what was the matter and saw Col. Strong
b Ing at the door leading Into the cdltoilnl
room with blood gushing fiom n wound In
the neck. The wounded man was picked up
and carried Into the managing editor's room
In the icar puitlon of tlie Herald building
nnd n few moments inloi wns cold mid ilgld
In death , his last biuatli llutteilng thiough
his lips as ho was Inld on tlm Hour.
1'rom all that can bo leaincd a carriage
diovo up to the Ilorald ollko and Dr. Richmond
mend leaped out , ran Into thu Herald count
ing loom , wheio Colonel Strong , K. F.
llailicll nnd another man weio talking. The
colonel was sitting tn nn mm chnlrlntho
northeast coiner of the polluting loom as
Richmond enteicd. Ho .slightly stooped and
tired the first shot , which evidently struck
Colonel Stiong in tlio small of tlio back. The
colonel then lose just ns anothui shot wns
iiiul and the thlid one quickly followed ,
sinking the colonel tn the neck , passing
thiougb mid coming out at the back. It was
this shot that evidently proved Intnl. A bul
let was nfteiwaids picked up on the lloor
thathid evidently stiuck the wall without
hitting Its intended victim.
When the leportot i cached Kdmond sheet
an immense ciowd had alieady gathuicd
mound tlie apparently lifeless body of Dr.
ICIchmond. Ab the lepoiler foiccd his way
thiotigh theciowd the ojellds of the doctor
fluttered slightly mid u moment later ho wns
taken upand cauled Into Uergman's liirnlturo
stoionnd laid on n ( able. An examination
was immediately made of the wound , which
was found to bo but slight , having only
stunned the man. The Bun rebutter then
foiccd his way into tlio Herald counting
loom , where a pool of blood marked the spot
where Stiong had fallen. The body of the
mindeiPil man lav. on thocirpiit in Ills pri
vate loom , bomubody had pliccd a coat
undei his head. The ejes weiu p ally closed
and the face with Its crown ol lion gioy hair
and lull bend looked as thouuh ho had fallen
asleep. A few filomls , the repoiteis nnd
biiigcons were In the loom. A son of the
colonel la > acioss the body moaning in deep ,
keen anguish. A dark pall had fallen upon
all around and as thcvga/ed upon the cold ,
ilgid I'oini of one wliobntn tew moments bo >
foie had been in lull enjoj ment ot health ,
even nil angers could not nv old a thrill of ser *
iow.it the , iwlul tinged } that had depilvcd a
sluing , biavo man ol llio.
