The man who was hurt, and who it is supposed is now lying at the point of death as the result of the affray, is well known among the members of the sportiog fraternity in Council Bluffs, he hay- ing lived here until last spring, when the gamblors were expolled from the city. -From ero he went to Sioux City, and then to Coy- ington, where he was living atthe time of e shooting. He is spoken of highly by the sports wno knew him, the general opinion bemg that the shooting was not tho re- sult of any Dbelligerent actions on his part as>he was always considered rather peaceable than otherwise, It is said that one night while he was employed in tho gambling house formerly kept by Jim Wiison near the corner of Broadway and Main streets, a warlike man from tho west came up to' Middleton as he was sitting at tho ablo dealing out cards, ana pulled out o _re- volver. Without uttering & word holifted the weapon within six inches of Middloton's faceand pulled tho trigger twice. The re- volver failed to bo discharged, however, either time, altkough an examination of the weapon afterwards proved tht it had been loaded.

Homer, 407 Broadway. —— A Busy Burglar, Residents of Bluff street were tronbled witha bold, bad burglar night before last. The residence of H. L.Shephard was v \ted, but almost as soon as the burglar had entered the house, and before he had had a chance to load up, Mr. Shephard appeared on the scene. The room from which he emerged was light, while the room where the burglar was holding his seance was dark, so that he had an opportunity to escape before Mr, Shephard could get hold of himor see what he looked. like. Shephard made a grab for hiw, but just as the grab took root. the burg- tavsli¢ out of thedoor and slammed the door atter him, W. W. Wallace's house was the next the burelar's programme, Wil Walluce was reading in the room adjoining the dining room at about midmght. He heard footsteps in the dining room, but thought that it was some other member of the family. He paid no attention to it, but soon after on going into the next room he found the silverware all gone that bad been left on the table after supper, with the exception of a large silver platter, which had evidently been dropped in the entry by the burglar on account of ~ its unwieldiness. Solid silverware to the value of §0 was taken. The strange part of _tho business is that during all this ime the door between tho rooms was open, and the burg- lar must have pussed within ten feet of ‘where Wallace was sitting and had carried on all his operations under his very nose. The fact that & pair of overshoes was also among the missing property 18 regurded as partially accounting for the quietness with ‘which the man carried on bis work. An attempt wus also made to enter tho residence OPL.
