Cut for a Debt.

A Chinaman whose name is Ah Lung,
owed $4.00 to another of his own nativity
and was slow about paying up. Yester-
day the creditor appeared and demanded
the money, and All Lung, feeling himself
insulted, drew large knife and made a
lunge at his visitor. The latter escaped
with only slight cut in the hand and
proceeded to swear out a warrant against
All Lung for an assault with a deadly
weapon. Lung was taken before Justice
Lockwood and his bail fixed at $500.
