CUT IN DEBAUCH.
A Doctor Summoned Late at Night to
Care for Wounded Man.

Several toughs of the North side had
a round up last night which they were
allowed to enjoy without molestat1on
from the police. Their rendezvous was
in a small frame house near the corner
of Paramore and Jefferson streets, and
with the aid of fluid refreshments the
crowd settled down about o'clock to
make the remainder of the night hilar-
ious. This they succeeded in doing IN
til the game was broken up by a row
in which one of their members was
badly cut and bruised.
Late last night DR. Mitchell was call
ed to the corner of PararnOre and JET
ferson where it was said a man had,
been seriously injured On arriving a
the house he found a young man who
gave his name as Frank Wilson in
sorry condition. His head, face and
wrists were badly cut, as though by
knife and his body severely bruised.
He said that he worked at the com
mission house of II. +. Nonken & Co,
921 Kansas avenue, but refused to say
how his injuries were received 1t is
supposed that a fight occurred either in
the house of the immediate neigh
borhood, and that a knife was used on
Wilson The entire company, men and
women, were in an intoxicated condi-
ton.
1t was stated at the commission house
of Nonken & Co. this morning that
Young man who suited the description
but not the name worked there, but ne
had not shown up as usual this morn
ing.
He is the. same young man who took
an overdose Of morphine several weeks
ago.
