GREEN USED A RAZOR.
Slashed Philip Zang in the Side with
It-Green Is Now in the
Police Station.

There came near to being a fatal cut
ting during a drunken street brawl on
Penn avenue yesterday afternoon. AS
a result of the affair a man giving the
name of ]. r. Green was locked in the
headquarters police station, where a
charge of felonious wounding is re-
corded against him. Philip Zang, the
victim of Green's ready razor, was cut
in the side but not seriously.
The trouble between Green and Zang
began and ended so quickly that de-
tails from eye-witnesses are lacking.
The former Immediately left the scene.
corner of Penn avenue and Linden
street, and went to his room at 1873
Franklin avenue, where he was ar
rested.
Gree says he is from Arizona. He Is
about 80 years of age, dark complex
ioned small in stature and smooth
faced. He has been selling water fit
ers, canvassing from house to house.
Zang, with his brother Charles, con-
Quoted pool and billiard room at POI
Wyoming avenue. With him and Green
during yesterdays trouble were the lat
ter's partner in the canvassing busi-
ness and two other men. The party
had been drinking.
Zang and Green came to blows on
the corner, the latter getting the worst
of the fight, He whipped a razor from
his pocket and made a vicious swing
with it at Zang's body. The weapon
cut a slash a foot in length on the left
side of The intended victims coat and
penetrated the flesh 1t made a cut
three inches in length and nearly a
half inch deep just above the hip, but
did not extend beneath the muscular
tissue.
Green, with his right eye blackened
and other parts of his face slightly
showing the effects of Zangs blows
hurried away and Zang was hustled to
the Office of physician, where his
wound was dressed.
Lieutenant of Police Davis and
Patrolman Hart arrested Green at 131
Franklin avenue, where he occupied a
furnished room. He showed the effects
of the liquor he had imbbed but was
not too drunk to realize the gravity of
his offence. When locked in a cell ir
the Woman's ward at the city hall sta
ton he refused to talk. The razor he
used was secured by the police.
When questioned last evening Green
said he did the cutting in self-defense
He would not discuss the case in de-
tail. He seemed to view his position
| nonchalently and as a matter of course
referring to the razor as my tool ant
remarking: II guess l made a mis-
take in having it (the razor) with me
but here l am and / guess I'll have tc
make the best of it,"
Conversation with him creates tn,
impression that he is not new to hi
present predicament. He will be giver
hearing in police court this morning

ANOTHER week has passed and

ANOTHER week has passed and
there is but little new in the line OF
war news. Schley has followed in
structions of the Board of Strategy
GU at Washington and knocked
out three forts at the entrance OF
the harbor of Santiago de Cuba,
where at least a part of the Span
ish fleet is known to be bottled up.
If he had not been under instruc-
lions he would probably have gone
into the harpor land captured or
sunk every Spanish vessel in there.
Some few supplies have been sent
to the starving Cnbans but there
has been 10 invasion of the island,
nor will there be, says the Board of
Strategy, until the terrible Spanish
fleet is disposed of.
A few more soldiers have been
shipped to Manila, and, up to date,
Dewey is all right, and occasional
ly goes out and captures a Spanish
vessel just to keep his hand in.
The administration is still hgur-
ing how it can make the most mon
ey and political capital out of the
scrap, and this end of the fight is
being very skillfully managed.

AS A sample of Spanish ignorance
read the following, taken from one
of the Madrid PAPERS: y
''The country (America is not fit
to live in, The climate is execrable.
When it is not sleeting or showing
the heat is almost unbearable Av-
alanches are frequent at all times,
and these threaten the principal
cities. As for the people, besides a
few whites engaged in business
along the Eastern shore, the rest of
the country is one vast plain, COW
cred with Indians called cowboys,
and great herds Of roaming cattle" "
El Diaro, another of the leading
papera-of Madrid, says: g.a5 y
1T will no doubt surprise our
readers to learn that the Yankee
President Magginly, is a naturalized
Chinaman, having been born in
Canton.
There may possibly be some Truth
in the last paragraph as the Yanket
President is making San Francisco
manufacturers bid against Honl
Kong firms for the furnishing o
10000 cork lined hats for the sol
diers who are to go to Manila.

NEWSPAPER HISTORY.

Now, for the third time, has tle
TIMES been called upon to chronicle
the demise of an opposition paper
in Lyon county. Some, years ago q
paper was started in Dayton, not as
business proposition, but for the
purpose of making the TIMES quit.
1t is not necessary to state that that
paper is not alive toe day. Some
years after the death of that sheet
the Silver Party was organized and
because tile TINES helped to organ
ize it, the Republicans thought
"Fairbanks was too d-n independ-
ent," and they scajoled a pretty good
newspaper man to enter the field.
This second paper was started IN
Mason Valley. 1t lasted very quick,
and the proprietor got out when he
found he was simply wasting his
efforts and ability on the green al
falfa fields. He could not make a
living. Soon after he suspended
publication another young man was
induced to invest few dollars in a
press and a few pounds of type, and
start paper. The name he gave
the paper nearly killed it the first
issue, but it managed to exc out an
existence until last week, when its
owner (?) held a post norton ex-
animation on it aud found that it
was as dead rs a door nail
The TIMES has at all times dur
ing its existence advocated what it
thought to be for the best interests
of Lyon county and the State at
large. If it thought that an enter
prise of any kind could be establish
ed in the coQnty on a paying basis
and was for the good OF the county,
ii advocated its inauguration. There
never has been time since this
paper was started that more than
one paper in the county could make
a fair living, and therefore, we have
not advocated the starting Of a
second paper When the time comes,
if it ever does, that two papers can
make a respectable living III Lyon
county, the TINES will be the first
TO advocate the establishment Of
another first class sheet. Until that
time we would advise others who
have an itching to start news
paper to stay away. We have given
this advice before, but it was not
needed. However, the proof of the
pudding is in the chewing of the
sack, and az we have been called
upon to chronicle the death of
three opposition sheets in the past
ten years, it would look as though
we knew one thing, or maybe two,
about what we were talking.
