KILLS HIS COUSIN (Continued from Page One) night. On the arrival of the doctor /it was found that the man had been shot through the right temple and in all probability had died instantly. The police were notified and Chief B. H. «Richmond was called out of bed and came to the house at which he found Lieut. Killourey and Officers ly, Paulhus and McArthur. The chief was told of the circumstances of the affair as far as any one knew at the time. He at once went to the cellar where it was found someone had gained en- trance through one of the windows. The chief came to this conclusion when he found a brush on the floor that ‘belonged in the window. None of the dust on the window sill had been touched, which complicated matters. A thorough search of the cellar was made in hopes of finding a gun of .32 calibre which had been used to kill Mr. Gilman. Nelson Gilman Shot. At this point, which was about 4.35, a telephone message was received at the house that Nelson Gilman, Sr., had been shot and seriously wounded. The chief and the leutenant at once hurried to the Main street house and found the elder Gilman conscious but not knowing who had shot him. Here it was at first thought that he had been shot by someone from outside the house but upon investigation it was found that there were powder marks on the bedclothes. Upon inquiry it was learned that Leon Gilman had been to the house but a short time before the shooting for some brandy for his mother, who he said was sick Threatened to Shoot Chief. On going to Leon’s house, which is in the Franklin block, the chief knocked at the door, which was open- ed by Mrs. Gilman, mother of Leon, who_told the chief that her son was in the other room. Mrs. Gilman went to her son's room to tell him the chief was there to see him. She came back to the door, saying that she thought her son was crazy. Mrs. Gijman when asked f she had sent Leon after brandy said after some hesitation she Men Feel Tired, Too. much is said about tired it must be remembered that » pay the penalty of overwork.

Wajted Till Grandfathen Slept. It was later Jearned that the young man had-been to the carnival Satur- day night and had taken a ride with Edward, whom he later shot. After the first shooting he went to.the home of his grandfather, asking for the brandy at this time he fixed the lock so _he would be able to get back in the house after the people had gone to sleep. After getting the brandy he went out into the ba ard and took a drink out of the bottle, which he threw away. He stayed near the house until he thought that his grandfather and his atnt were asleep. He . then went into the house and shot the elder Gilman, who in all probability will die from the effects. of his wound, which has ali y _paralyzed his. legs, the bullet eMfering through the back of the neck and striking the spinal col umn. An operation will be necessal to locate the bullet which is thought to be in the spinal cord, or to have gone through it. Mr. Gilman is at the hospital where it was stated Sunday night that his condition was serious and that he {s suffering great pain. Strange Statement to Coroner.
