Police Get Man With Sword and One
With Pistol.
Albert and oscar Stice were arrested
by the police yesterday and are marked
hold" on the police blotter. This means
that these fellows are bad men and the
chief wants to inquire little into their
past record. Iaey are alleged gam lers
and thieves and the pzraphernslia they
carried would bear out this statement.
one of the men carried a cane, harm
less looking, but when pulled apart
showed a sword blade nineteen inches
long. with a good edge and point. The
other carried a revolver. and in a grip
was found a "chuck-a-luck' outfit, dice
box and cloth and some few other articles
used by gamblers and grafters. It is sup
posec that these men came to Wichita
to work during the Fair, but were nipped
before they could begin operations.
