Stoat, a sergeant in the State Constabulary, and son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. William] Hendrickson. Riverside, on Monday night was shot and probably fatally wounded by a foreigner whom he was attempting to arrest.JSorgeaut Stout of the Uuiontown detachment of Troop A, State police, at 10 o’clock Monday night, in response to a call for aid, attempted to arrest Frank Christner, who, it was said, was drank and was going to kill his wife. With several others of the State police Sergeant Stout raided the house, in which wore a gang of desperatecharacters.As lie opened the door a man standing within shot him, the bullet passing through his nose and entering his head. Stout is a man of splendid physique being over six feet tall and built in proportion. Weakened as lie was by ids injury ho drew his revolver and iired at the man who shot him. Frank Christner fell, a 38-calibre bail having ploughed through his skull.The surgeons who probed unsuccessfully for the missile in SergeantStout’s head can not state whether theinjury will prove fatal or not. The policeman’s fine constitution is vastly in his favor. Christuer’s wound is not considered necessarily fatal.Sergeant Stoat’s wife is a half sister of Mrs. W. H. Maugor, West Mahoning street. The sergeant himself frequently visited relatives in Danville and was well known here.snip.j Up (siou h; man which ent nlt; delay to hob some t in 1 East I-plislieidispnt able wions 7.1 ence t ginnirWith i sncces foro ii The End ^ Next idresscthe siii Del ui Ipi oyer tural i ries.A AliIonits old in the occurrMooreeveuiiThemouthwit list was a I two illI stroke ing illERECTING ENGINEER I gh.uh:
