Gilbert Twigg fired a storm of ballets
into a crowd on the streets, 0f Winfield,
Kansas, reeulting in the death of 10 or 11
people and the wounding of 22 others.
The Baud was giving their weekly con•
cert and a large company bad assembled
to hear the meelo when the unprovoked

alley, 10 shote being fired in all. Each
shell was loaded with twelve No. 6 back -
shot, the shots following one another
with intervals of 2 or 8 mi00tee. A
double barrelled abut gun was need.
Sheriff Day and Constable Mark made a
dash into tbe alley to stop the deadly
fueilade and roped Twigg just dying with
a bullet through his head from a 32
Smith & Wesson revolver. The murderer
was a bright young mein, miller by trade,
33 years of age, had travelled a good deal
and(' served io the Phillipine war. He
was not a drinker but had been observed
to be acting strangely for some time,
1avi0g the Caney that he was being
wronged and did the terrible deed in
vengeance. He was very deliberate about
it as he reloaded the gen four times.
The street corners ware oovered with
pools of blood, Among the dengeronsly
wounded was Olyde Reed, a nephew of
Dire. (Dr.) McNaugbton, Braaeele, a young
man 01 about 20. He was shot through
the thigh. Mre. MONaughton left for
Winfield Wednesday morning where her
Sister reeides. Mr. Reed was a visitor, in

will never be forgotten.
