Fearful Fight for His Life

A fearful battle for his life was fought
by George Eder with six burglars at ST
Louis yesterday morning. Eder sleeps and
works in Speciks & Simpsons tailor shop
and was aroused by the efforts of some one
trying to break in the door. Before he
could collect his wits the door was broken
in and six men crowded in. Eder reached
for a hatchet, but was driven back by a
blow on the head from the bar used in
opening the door. He finally reached the
weapon. and blows upon blows We're ex-
char ged until the hatchet was wrenchel
frcm Elders hand. He still fought desper-
atey. Finally he reached a pair of shears.
which he used a dagger. ultimately
driving the crowd away. He then fell un-
conscious. and now lies dying from a frac-
tured skull. Edward Gallagher ard Ed
ward Sexton, two of the gang, are in Jail.
The police are searching for the Others.
