Can anyone find the original newspaper of the St. Louis Globe-Democrat about Lee Shelton, aka stagger Lee

Should be from December 25, 1895.
The quote goes as follows
“William Lyons, 25, a levee hand, was shot in the abdomen yesterday evening at 10 o'clock in the saloon of Bill Curtis, at Eleventh and Morgan Streets, by Lee Sheldon, a carriage driver. Lyons and Sheldon were friends and were talking together. Both parties, it seems, had been drinking and were feeling in exuberant spirits. The discussion drifted to politics, and an argument was started, the conclusion of which was that Lyons snatched Sheldon's hat from his head. The latter indignantly demanded its return. Lyons refused, and Sheldon withdrew his revolver and shot Lyons in the abdomen. When his victim fell to the floor Sheldon took his hat from the hand of the wounded man and coolly walked away. He was subsequently arrested and locked up at the Chestnut Street Station. Lyons was taken to the Dispensary, where his wounds were pronounced serious. Lee Sheldon is also known as 'Stag' Lee.”
Looking for a picture of a newspaper or a link to it thanks

I could probably fix this right? Oh

Little love tap with the guard rail. Just pop the dent out (somehow) and some paint marker and she’s mint right?
Body shop quoted me 5k and there’s no way that’s happening

How do I get the Andy Griffin show?

Supposedly, the first TV in my county. I have a basic understanding of electronics and am in way over my head, but it home and there was a flash of light on the tube for a second. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Correct size drill bit for .410

What would be the best drillbit size to use for drilling out a 410 shotgun barrel? I was thinking either a letter size Z, or a 7/16 inch.
Thanks

Drill out the berdan primer with a 7/32 drill bit. Used a cut down 22lr where it’s just the primer left. Fit pretty good. How stupid is this?
