Held in $700 Bonds Charged With As- sault—Fine of $25 and Costs for Revello, Domonecco Rodgers, charged with assault with intent to kill, and Antonio Revello, with carrying _concealend weapons, were before Judge William A. Arnold in polise court Monday morning. Rodgers entered a plea of not guilty. Revello entered the same plea. The Rodgers case was first taken up. Revello testified that he and Rodgers had had a few wopds in a house on Jackson place. He came to this city from Taftville Saturday evening and that he ¢aw Rodgers for the first time on Sunday. Rodgers went out one door and witness went out another. He saw Rodgers on the street a little later. Revello was in the yard and Rod- gers, aiming a revolver at him, cried “Stand up there, I'm going to shoot you.” Rodgers fired ~the revolver twice. Someone passed witness a re- volver, but he did not use it, but put it in his pocket as Rodgers ran down Jackson place. Miss Anna L. Robinson testified that she was in her house and saw Rodgers standing out near the alley. Saw him discharge the revolver twice: could not see at whom he was shooting. She knew Rodgers and positively identified him as the man who fired the revol- ver. Mrs, \Francis Hines heard the two revolver shots and g going to the door to ascertain the reason saw Fodgers running toward the railroad tracks very fast. He bumped into her little boy and knocked him down. Herbert W. Smith testified that he was sleeping, but was awakened by the pistol shots and going to the door saw Rodgers hurrying toward the railroad tracks. Officer Ernander testified to arrest- ing Rodgers in his room at the Irvin house at § o'clock Sunday evening. No revolver was found and Rodgers stout- ly dented all implication fn the affair. In Own Behalf. Rodgers stated that about 3.30 o'clock Sunday afternoon he left his hotel and went to Jackson place; meeting some friends, they talked for some time. They afterwards went into a house and Revello was there with others playing cards. Revello was noisy and had the appearance of hav- ing been drinking freely. He made some remark to the accused about coming in without being invited. The accused, being asked to sit in, did so; Revello commenced to crit- icize his style of play until at last the party broke up. Before Rodgers went out Revello hit him a crack in the nose that caused it to bleed. They met later in the yard and Revello had a revolver in his hand and shot twice at the ac- cused and some bystander handed him two bullets to replace the empty car- tridges. He thought that Revello was surely going to kill him and began to run through Jackson place as fast as he could. He did not have any pistol and was afraid of Revello. With reference to the testimony of Miss Robinson, witness claimed that it was untrue and that he and she had “kept company” some time ago and had a misunderstanding and that was the reason she tried to put in on to him. Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Hunter, who was conducting the case, questioned Rodgers as to why he ran. Rodgers replied: “Well, if you had a man shooting at you, and you had no gun yourself, you would run as fast as you could. One is not going to stand there and take a chance at belng killed when the opportunity to rufl s at hand. No, sir, nobody will stand still and let another man shoot at him.” Revello’s Denial Revello was called in rebuttal and denled that he had shot at Rodgers. Claimed that he could not tell who handed him the revolver. He admit- ted that Rodgers had made no threats against him and he could nmot really say why Rodgers had fired at him. Rodgers Bound Over. Judge Arnold said that while the ev- idence was somewhat conflicting the circumstances were such as to warrant binding the accused over for the su- perior court, 50 he ordered him bound over to the mext criminal term of the superfor court in $700 bonds.

Smith Speaks on Chinese Missions—Personal Bacon Academy base ball team met another Waterloo when they ran up against the Portland High school team Saturday, in Portland, the score being 27 to 1 In favor of Portiand. One of the causes given for the overwhelming defeat was that a ditch and a wire fence ran across the field back of the second base, the rules of the ground being that a ball knocked over the fence the runner was given two bases: the Portland team had practiced bat- ting the ball just over the fence and hed got it down to perfection and with men on bases a hit over the fence meant runs every time. The Academy team failed to connect with the bail to ralse it over the fence. The Acad- emy team expect to reverse the score when the Portiand team plays here.

The Cojumbia team were a well behaved set of men and received their of applause in their plays. The olchesters will play the return game in Columbla the fifth of June. The locals were short two of thelr best players, but put up @ stiff game. Address By Rev. E. H. Smith. The monthly Missionary meeting was beld i the chapel Sunday even- ing. Rev. Edward H.
