the store of Julius Kahn, on Elm
street, accompanied by his wife where
he left her, while he went out to at
tend to some business. During his alb
sence n drunken brute entered the
store and began swearing, when one
of the clerks called his attention to the
fact that there was a lady present.
Looking directly at the lady the scoun-
drel made use Of a most indecent ex-
preston. After hich he strobe out
OF the store. Shortly afterwards the
husband returned and learning the
facts started after the BLACKBOARD,
armed with pistol, and had he
caught him there would have been
bloodshed. The coward took good
care to securely secrete himself.
