George M. Holt, probation officer of the
Juvenile court and a pioneer In the work
of saving boya from the street in thl
city, went to Fifth and Main street to In
mtigate a caae of alleged abduction which
had been reported to him. Near the street
corner he came upon Sharp, who. sur
rounded by hie companions, was exhorting
a crowd of street loafers. With Sharp were
A. J. Selser, a woman and five children
The children ranged In age from 2 to 14
year. The officer' suspicion were
arouaed by the manner in which the
woman attempted to secure money contri
butions from the crowd, snd he decided
that she and her male companions were not
proper persons to have the custody of
young children.
The woman announced , Utat she and
"Adam God" would conduct service at
Creighton' or Poor-man' mission, one
block north, tonight, whercuxion she and
her companions started In the direction
of the mission. Officer Holt then accosted
the woman and Inquired a to the identity
of the children. Tie woman replied
aharply that the officer "had better attend
to his own business. " "Adam God." whose
long1 flowing white beard and hair gave
him the appearance of a patriarch, threat
ened the officer with physical violence.
Officer Holt never goea armed and he
found himself at ,a decided disadvantage
when the preacher and his companion dis
played revolvers. He stood his ground,
however, and "Adam God" struck him a
heavy blow behind the ear, making an
ugly wound with his revolver.
Holt then started for the police station
for assistance, and a he moved away the
preacher tried to shoot , him, but Sharp
waa ao excited he dropped his revolver a

picked it up and snapped it at the officer

ordered Patrolmen Charlee ' Dalbow and
Harry F. Stege to go out and arrest Sharp
and his followers,
Tbe religionist were wtthlng fifty yard
of the police station when tbe officers
stepped into the street. They served notice
on all who chanced to hear that they would
preach right "under the eaves of the police
station and tbe police cannot prevent ne."
The officers were not prepared for the vol
ley of bullets which met them almost im
mediately after they appeared on the scene.
Dalbow was killed Instantly and a bullet
passed through Stege' arm. Other officer
rushed Into tbe street and a general battle
ensued. But the officers were unable to
ahoot without endangering the lives of in
nocent persons. Lieutenant Clark, who had
come Into the street unarmed, was ahot in
the eye and Patrolman Mullane wa shot in
