Local Intelligence.

The Recent Shooting Affair.—The Police have not as yet succeeded in tracing the European [Aleister Crowley] who shot the two men in Mott's Lane, a few nights back, as there are no clues whatever to work upon. A reward of Rs 100 has been promised by the Commissioner of Police for the finding of the man, who, the Police believe, is attached to one of the vessels in port. The two injured men are recovering gradually.—The Police have not as yet been able to trace the European who shot the two natives in Motts' Lane, the description afforded being exceedingly meagre. One of the men, who was shot, has been discharged from hospital and the other man is progressing favourably.
