ENGINEER STBBED
WAS ATTACKED AS HE LEFT ms
ENGINE AT REDWOOD BY
DRUNKEN MAN ARMED
WITH AN UGLY KNIFE.


4. +. Ia
G. w. Sharer, m engineer on the West
Virginia and pittsburg railroad, Is in
the Cook hospital in Fairment at the
point of death as the result Of a murder
Gus assault made ON him at Redwood
Tuesday night. He was taken to Fair
mont for treatment. Sharer was at
tacled by an unknown drunk man rs
he alighted from his engine after COM
plcting his run.
As he stepped from the cap he noticed
a fellow who was apparently very drunk
and just as harmless. The engineer paid
no attention to him and started to walk
around his locomotive to see If it was
nh right, when suddenly and without
any cause the fellow made ut him.
With huge knife In his hand the
unknown assailant approached the en-
gineer on the run and, waving the weap-
ON, he swore terrible oath and sunk
the knife to the hill in the startled Vie
tim. Sharer did not for moment un-
derstand the situation and made very
poor defense. The knife was Instantly
pulled from his body and sunk In again.
The third stroke sent the engineer to
the ground and his assailant left him for
dead sSharer was picked up by fellow
worlsmen and taken to the loeal DEBTORS.
Office. By this time the assailant had
skipped out. It rs reported here TO-
day that he has been arrested.
One of the engineers ribs was cut
completely in two and another one hack
ed till it was almost severed. The as
sault was 80 sudden and was over so
tie about It, even If he were able to
tell st.
His condition is not reassuring, but TO
hospital people have hopes of his ulti-
mate recovery. One Of the wounds made
by the knife came very near entering his
heart.

For Industrial Peace.


President Shaffer of the Amalga.
mated Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers has clearly passed far
beyond any such bitter spirit of hos
tility between capital and labor as a
would-be walking delegate Of capital
has recently been doing his best to
stimulate. He stands for industrial
peace, with the interests Of all par
Elephants in industrial life recognized
and protected.
He says: 1.-The employer has in
vested his money, his time, his ex-
perience and business sagacity. We
have invested u time, experience,
skill and physical efforts, and from
mutual investment there should come
to each q fair share of the proceeds
or profits derived from them"
And again: THE time has come,
and l believe it is propitious, when
capital and labor, in organized capac-
tiles, must unite to oppose and de.
feat the purposes Of their common
enemies"
Mr.. Shaffer sees in the National
| Civic Federation the beginnings of
such a union, and he regrets only that
the federation is still in its early
stage. Certainly If employers and
workmen always approached their
difficulties In the spirit to which Mr..
Shaffer gives expression no iron
hand" would be necessary to secure
industrial peace.-Record-H Herald.
