not bite them attempted to bite his
wrist securing such a firm hold on the
member that his teeth had to be pried
loose.
For some time after reaching the
hospital, Williams was insensible, and
the officers feared they would be una

he became partially conscious and told

have Black Hawk in order to win and
this county has been placed in the

carry East Waterloo tonight, which
means control of Black Hawk county,
his victory 10 the state convention is
cinched.
Cummins has today from forty three
