Among her passengers is Miss BISLAND, making the trip around the world as the representative of the Cosmopolitan Magazine. Her passage across the pacific was remarkably good for this season of the year, and good judges think she will beat Nellie BLY, traveling around the world in the opposite direction in the interest of the New York World. SAN FRANCISCO -- December 11th. -- Robert KENNEDY, owner of a ranch near Stockton, was fatally shot by Mrs. Elma POLSKY and her fifteen-year-old son, who leased the place from him. There was a dispute about the rent, and Mrs. POLSKY shot KENNEDY in the groin and fired the other barrel without effect. She then handed the weapon to the boy, telling him to reload it and finish Kennedy. The boy reloaded the revolver and shot Kennedy in the ear. The wounded man cannot recover.
