The woman was held for murder in the first degree jand her husband as accessory be- fore the fact. Miss Ida B. Harrison, daughter of Jas. H. Harrison, was married to Mr. J.C.

Gannon is wanted at Vandalia, Ils., on a charge of murder, and was seek- ing refuge with a couple of brother- in-laws at Rich Hill. At the time of the arrest the fugitive was stopping with brother-in-law Dodson, in the northeast part of town, and when the officer arrived at the house Gannon took to his heels and refused to sur- render, whereupon Marshal Logan drew his revolver and fired three shots at him, the last one taking effect in the fleshy part of the left arm close to the shoulder and brought the young man to a halt. He was taken to the Talmage house, and Dr. Hu- lett dressed his wound, which, while painful is not considered dangerous. Fine rain Saturday night. Farmers are putting in their time gathering corn.
