LUNATIC ATTEMPTS TO SLAY
GOTHAM POLICE.
SAVED BY HEAVY CLOTHES
Crank Ordered to Prepare Himself to
“Get Disentangled from Life”
Says He Wanted to Take
Officer with Him
New York —"Dlg Al" Selick, a po
lHceman with a record for bravery and
without a single mark against him In
his tem years on the force, had a nar
row escape from being shot to death
in Thirteenth street the other moru
ing, when a man apparently lusane,
who had been “talking with the
spirit.” determined to take the police
man with him as he “disentangled”
himself from this mortal coil, he said.
The frenzied stranger fired four
shots at the bluecoat, one of which
went wild Two of the others were
stopped by his heavy coal, while one
ploughed along his shoulder, inflicting
a severe flesh wound. The policeman
felled the man with his clad and sent
him to a hospital. Sellick himself was
cared for at New York hospital.
It was shortly after two o'clock
when Sellick policed an undersized
man dodging in and out of the door
ways along Thirteenth street. Finally
the little man went up to Sellick and
asked
“Is this Thirteenth street?”
“Yes, this is Thirteenth street,” the
policeman replied. and continued om
his beat. He had gone about 25 feet
in advance when a bullet whizzed by
his head, and as he turned the man
behind him fired another shot point
blank. This ripped out the lining of
his coat at the right shoulder. Sellick
ran toward his man, but was met by
another shot, which struck him over
the left kidney but was deflected by
his heavy clothing and coursed its
way along his flesh to his shoulder,
where It came out through the coat
izaln
The little man turned and ran and
fired another shot at Sellick, which
went wild The policeman, who Is a
hig. powerful fellow, drew his revolver
and fired twice in the alr, shouting to
the fugitive to stop. As he was rapid
ly overhauling the man who had shot
at him Sellick saw him turn the gun
on himself He placed the muzzle of
the revolver against his breast and
pulled the tngger. A suspender buckle
deflected the bullet and it fell down
into the lining of his vest
“Then | measured him with the
stick.” sald Sellick. “1 didn’t want to
kill him, because then the odds were
all in my favor”
Policeman Rainey ran to Sellick's
assistance and summoned an ambu
lance for the wounded policeman, as
he could not tell how badly he had
been hit. His clothing was pretty well

At the station it was found that the
prisoner, who said he was John Dola,
was in u bad way. In his pockets
were found sweatshop tickets made

He said that he went under that name
He also admitted, according to the po
lice, that he had serves] six months in
the workhouse for smashing windows

‘Why did you want to shoot the

It is absorbing from the rise to the

true to life and with every tear there

character of Sergeant James, which
gives the title to this play, Is just one
of those whole souled, good hearted men
