Ais.. Roberts severely Get.


Monday evening about nine o'clock
while the council WAS being lectured
by Indignant citizens about the Sum
day closing business TIE startling
announcement was made that q
white man had been cut In the ab-
domen by negro at the "merry-go-
round" It 10 hard to get Mt the real
facts In the case ~ 30 many different
stories are told by persons claiming
10 be eys.witnesses, and no one Ii
more creditsble than the others.
Roberta, who IL In the employ OF
Nat Wilson, came into town and re-
paired to the place. In some way
he became engaged with . colored
boy in . quarrel over the possession
Of horse, and slapped him. After
riding he dlsmounted and the quarrel
was resumed with . number of black
boys, one Of whom, supposed to be
Alex. Finch, slashed him across the
back with . razor infilc,ing o dam
eerous wound. The cut extends eight
Inches diagonslly across the back,
and varies In depth, only missing
the kidneys by . small fraction Of
IN inch. Instantly his assailsnt
fed. and after staggering about for
some minutes, Roberts was assisted
to DR.. Winterbothsm's office, where
his Injuries received attention. At
last accounts he was resting easily
and will recover.
There are many people In Salina
who nnd Il difficult TO believe that
Alex. Finch ever did the cutting.
All the negroes that were there say
he did not do It, but that young
fellow from Ellis who had only been
In town day or two was the guilty
man. II must be confessed, too,
that oil their stories are the same In
this one particular. A razor, said TO
be the one that was used, was found
Tuesday morning. From all the
information the JOURNAL can
gather, there is no more ground for
believing Alex. Finch the guilty
man than any one Of . half dozen
who participated In the melee.
Undoubtedly Roberts was the ag-
gressor In the beginning, but that IL
no excuse for cutting him open with
rssor. The county attorney 10
hard ct work investigating the affair.

A. L. MURDOCH:
Dear ssir--I would like to tell you OF our ex
pei ;ence with your Liquid Food, for feel very
sure that in the mercy OF God it saved my nus
bands life.
Two years ago, my husband worn outwith ex-
cessiye watching and anxiety by reason of a
severe illness of mine, together swith the
pressure ofhis duties as principal OF a high
school, broke down completely, nervous ex-
haustion. severe rhematsm, amounting almost
to rheumatic fever, and complete arrangement
of the digestive system, so that he could not
keep milk on his stomach, or the simplest nour-
ishment brought him down very low.
Our physician, nearly in despair tried one
thing after another, but all TO no good At last
he hit on your Liquid Food; the effect was mag
ical The very first dose made itself felt like a
thrill of new life; his improvement was very
rapid. his appetite ravenous, and he gained flesh
yery fast. Ills rheumatism, too, which had
troubled him exceedingly for several years, was
very much relieved. and, in short, he seemed
and felt like new man. TO all who knew him
and his former condition, he was walking
advertisement of Mhrdocks Liquid Food. Since
that time when he becomes debilitated through
overworl or indigestion a LITTLE OF the Liquid
Food will soon set him right again.
Feeling that we both owe you large debt OF
gratitude, and this acknowledgement OF the
benefit received, am,
Yours respectfully
MRS. PERCIVAL F. MARST0N,
;an11M. Witt Andover, Mass
