         Bay City, May 15, - A tragedy occurred in the Standish
       House at Standish, Arenac Co., twenty-nine miles north of
       Bay City, Wednesday evening, resulting in the death of
       JEREMIAH MAHONEY from the result of a pistol shot wound
       in his right breast, alleged to have been inflicted by
       a revolver in the hands of one WM. QUIGLEY. MAHONEY ex-
       pired in less than an hour. He and the accused had some
       words regarding the driving of saw logs, and meeting in
       the Standish House the shot was fired before anyone
       could interfere. QUIGLEY was arrested and waived exami-
       nation. The Arenac Circuit Court meets May 26. The pri-
       soner was brought to the Bay County Jail this evening.
       He denies having done the shooting. The deceased was
       29 years old and had a wife and two small children.

         Last May WM. QUIGLEY and JERRY MAHONEY had a quarrel
       in Standish, Arenac county, over driving saw logs, in
       which QUIGLEY drew a revolver and shot MAHONEY through
       the left lung, the injury producing death twenty minutes
       later. On the 6th his trial commenced in the Arenac cir-
       cuit court and ended on the 8th, the jury rendering a
       verdict of not guilty. Self defense was the prisoner's
       plea. The verdict gives general satisfaction.
