After detectives investigated the case with the intention of apprehending the man who was supposed to have shot Risk, and after Dr. E. C.

Tt was found that Risk's wound, which was In the right ankle, was due to a bullet which took an upward course; that the wound was caused by a builet of the caliber carrfed In Risk's revolver; that there was an empty shell in the officer's wea- pon and that a dent on the revolver might indicate that he had dropped it on the pavement And now down at the police headquar- | ters the police are chuckling to themselves about Risk's thrilling story Daniel May Hold On Spite of Jim City Prosecutor Has Chance to Keep Job by Loophole in Charter Amendments. Herbert 8. Danlel may succeed himself as city prosecutor whether Mayor Dahlman wants him or not. An error In the to charter amendments question whether the a city prosecutor or not. In one section it provides for the ap- pointment of such an officer by the mayor, but when the charter prescribes the order in which the officers shall be named, it omits to say the mayor shall appoint the city prosecutor or in what order. Some of the “Jims” are willing to charge | that the error was not altogether a mistake on the part of some of the friends of Mr. Dantel. They are not Inclined to be sore about it, for, though Daniel supported Her- | ryman for the nomination, good friends of Dahlman say he voted for Jim at the polls and consistently supported the entire democratic ticket as against the republican ticket. By a fight it is clalmed Mr. Daniel could hold the office under Mayor Dahiman be- cause of the omission. It is considered a good technicality—and technicalities are | sald to be valuable nowadays.
