H. Page, President of the New York Athletic Club and one of the moving spirits in the Automobile Club of America, followed in a sim- ilar vein.

Plum- mer, until about a year ago a saloon- keeper at Louisville, Ky. His wife is said to have fired the shot which killed the unidentified man. The shooting occurred at Plummer’s home when two men rahg the door bell and said: “We have a message for you from Louisville, Harry.” Plummer opened the door and the men opened fire. Plummer fell to the floor with two bullet wounds. His wife, in her room upstairs, heard the shooting and seized a revolver from beneath a pillow on her bed. Hurriedly descending the stairs, she fired at one of the intruders. They made their exit through a kitchen window. The dead man was found by the police hanging across a fence in the rear yard. A dragnet was thrown out. The men were traced to the tenderloin, where the trail was lost. Plummer says he knew the men in Louisville, but does not remember their names. The police discredit his story. The theory is that the shoot- ing is the result of an infraction of underworld rules and that the four men came here to wreak vengeance. Piummer'’s wife, until she lost her license a year ago, conducted a saloon in the Toledo tenderloin. ‘The dead man was about twenty- Ma Many thousands of yards of woolens in this sale ‘we are actually selling them below cost, to say nothi VALUES $3.00 to $5.00 PER YARD. sh , n black suit.
