Stories Borrowed from Col.

When the day is dull and dreary-
Same old grind
When the world is warm and weary.
Never mind.
When the fates don't treat you fairly;
When you've cause to smile but rarely
Friends all say it d%ebonaiTly.
Never mind
To your hours of useless worry
Be resigned;
Ii you're iostled in the hurry,
Never mind
Even is some FOOL adviser
Springs this motto like a geyser
Spouting thoughts Of men much wiser.
Never mind.

The country that the men are now

1t is the general belief here that
the men will now break up and take

Around Lake Tahoe the same condi-

Ferrel states that the men are well

AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN.
William Davis Yields AK With Muir
derous Intent at Social Gathering.

Intoxicating beverages inspired William
Davis. colored. late Saturday night. with a
desire to kill somebody. He was a member
Of small party which assembled for con-
vivial purposes at 1850 Jefferson street.
About 1890 Sunday morning some oae
aroused the ire of Davis. He would accept
no apologies. and owing to the warlike
measures he attempted to execute. cries
of murder and police" issued from the
house In quick succession.
When neighbors arrived upon the scene
Davis, 1t is said, was welding a woodman's
ak with great skill and telling effect, and
presently 1t was found that Martha and
Annie and Perry Neale. brother and sisters.
colored at whose home the party was
given were bleeding profusely from wounds
inflicted by Davis. who had made good his
escape.
The police Of the seventh precinct were
soon on the scene of action, and those in
volved in the affair were conveyed to the
Georgetown University Hospital for treat
ment From what can be learned Davis
first slashed Martha Neale alongside he
head with the ak, almost cutting of her
left ear. Perry came to the rescue Of nj,
sister and as a result, he was struck n
the middle of his forehead with the ak. Hs
was down and out in a few seconds and
Davis completed his work by bringing the
ak down upon the left hand of Annie, near
ly severing two fingers. The decorations
were all sewed up and the party left tho
hospital In depressed state of mind. Davis.
the assailant, cannot be found.
Wesley Young, colored. forty-five years
old. was taken suddenly III last evening
