was cut in TWO or three places The men then
boiled.
Last night Brown was walking along Larkin
street, between Golden Gate avenue and Turk,
when the man who had on Wednesday night
drawn the knife on him ran out of the Mar
guerite saloon and made jab at his heart with
knife. Brown warded OFF the blow with his
order book which be happened TO have in his
hand. The man again disappeared. Next
morning Brown called at police headquarters
and repOrte the murderous attacks upon him.
Brown sleeps in room in his employers

was hid behind some canvas jumped upon him
and made four passes at his breast with
knife. Thy all took effect, but three OF hem

summoned. The assailant had meantime es

for keeping The girls in her house. She was ar
rested by Detectives G bison ana Anthony. She
was afterward arrested by the Society for The

Mrs. Andrew called upon Chief Crowley yes
terday morning and made charges against Off
GERS OF The society of persecution and OF at

lection. The society not only took the girls

They sat costly side by side at the
theater, enjoying to the top Of their
bent the miserable fate of Desdcmona,
and dear George told her that he would
never be jealous of her-no, not if she
should give away one thousand pocket
handkerchiefs, and then they had
squeezed each others hands under her
lace wrap, and they were happy as
happy can be. ''Dear George bought
her n box of bon-bons. and then ate
them all up, for no man was ever so
much in love as to be shy in the matter
of eating.
by and by it came to the end of the
third act, and after looking cry rest

You won't mind, dear, will you, if !
just step out into the vestibule to
stretch my legs a bit. will you?'
If George had had half an eye he
would have seen that she did mind,
very much; no woman likes to be left
alone in a theater, but she only said
coolly: "Oh, not i'm the least, if you
care to GO"
So George crawled over the laps of
half a dozen ladies, treading on their
toes, scratching their chins with his
watch chain and brushing the bloom
off their laces and evening attire.
She waited about five minutes, and
then, swiftly bundling her wrap
around her, and with her pretty face
scarlet with indignation and cmbap
rassment, she bravely left the theater
and went home.
And it served George right New Or
