THUG BRUTALLY
ASSAULTS A CHILD

SEATTLE, May 2O.--As the result Of a
brutal assault, Marvin Myers, the l3-yeai
old son Of f M. Myers, Of 1851 Twenty
first avenue, lay unconscious for eighty-one
hours, and only recovered sufficiently yes
terday to relate the cause OF his condition.
Young Myers is a clerk in WirtlPs candy
store on Second avenue and started home
Sunday night from there about 10 O'Clock
Near the corner OF Twentieth avenue aud
East Union street a masked man suddenly
appeared, commanded him to stop and
bit him on the back Of the head with a
black jack.
About ! o'clock his parents heard a noise
on the front porch, and opening the door
found their son on his hands and knees,
covered with mud, talking ineoherently
and unable to control himself. When car
iied into the house he did not recognize
any Of the family His pockets were
turned inside out, indicating that the pur-
pose OF the assault was robbery.

VIII the scale of hours worked by the
$50 men in the Northern Pacific shops at
South Tacoma be reduced from nine to
eight per day?
That is the question now agtating all
of South Tacoma. The machine men are
discussing the probability of the reduc-
ton and while there has been no official
order issued as yet, the mechanics will
not be surprised if the change is posted
during the next ten days.
Superintendent Mor of the shops, who
was seen by a representative Of The Times
this morning, stated that, so far as he
knew, no change would be made ''Ihe
general offices at st. Paul have jurisdic-
ton over those matters, he said, and ii
there is to be a reduction in the hours
will probably not know Of it until the
order comes from headquarters"
The men are now working nine hours
daily and the average pay received Is 35
cents per hour, making the average daily
wage $3l5. Should this be cut down by 30
cents day per man it will mean total
reduction of about $225 in the daily pay
roll
How the men would take a reduction is
the question. Some seem to be strong
" against it. At the company's main
shops in Brainard. Alinn9 the men are
