Italians Engage il Fierce Knife
and Pistol Duel at Silver
Lake Saturday Night
ACCUSED MAN SURRENDERS
Claims That He Fired in Self Defense
Wounded Man at the Hospital Re-
fuses to Make any Statement
About the Shooting Affair

AS result of sanguinary battle
at Silver Lake late Saturday night,
Seymour Alexandra occupies cot in
a ward at the Kenosha hospital suffer
ing from two bullet wounds, while
Carl Bernardo occupies cell at the
county jail charged with attempted
murder.
Incidentally Bernardo did not come
out of the fray unscathed, for he is
cut about the head and face and he
alleges that the wounds were made by
Alexandra who attacked him with a
knife.
The trouble occurred at the camp of
the men employed by the Wisconsin
Central Railway company. Both Of
the men are Italians, and both had
been employed by the railway COM
pany. Bernardo had been working
during the afternoon, but Alexandra
had laid off and had teen with party
which had been rushing the can
pretty freely during the afternoon.
When Bernardo returned from work
he joined the group, but he was not
drunk enough to make him a good
fellow with the crowd. The men in
sisted that Bernardo act as can bearer,
and he went to the saloon several
times for the liquid refreshments.
After time he objected to the work,
and these objections brought him
into wordy war with Alexandra.
Bernardo alleges that in the bic
which followed Alexandra drew a
knife and made for him, cutting him
several times about the face, and that
in self-defense he drew 32-calibre
revolver from his pocket and began
firing. Two shots were fired in rapid
succession. Tie first shot simply
grazed the neck of Alexandra, max
ing slight flesh wound, while the
second ploughed into his jaw and
struck the jaw bone, breaking it.
Alexandra then gave up the fight
and fell to the ground bleeding from
his wounds. The men about the
camp hurried to his assistance and
Bernardo, who had shot, aided them in
taking care of him later. Later
Bernardo went to Deputy Sheriff
Seavey and gave himself up admitting
that he had shot the man. Bernardo
and the wounded man were brought
to Kenosha Sunday morning and
Alexandra was taken to the hospital
and DR.. William Pugh called to attend
him. An exaniE alton showed that
his jaw bone had been broken and his
face terribly bruised. The condition
of the wound shows that the shots
must have been fired at very close
range as the face of the injured man
was badly powder burned. There was
no bullet in the wound and it was
clearly shown that striking the jaw
the bullet had been DETECTED so that
it went out at the point of the chin.
The physicians state that Alexandra
is not fatally wounded.
The men who were at the camp
when the shooting occurred seem to
bear out the story of Bernardo and he
will probably seek justification in a
plea of self defense. He will be taken
before justice this afternoon and it
is probable that the hearing will be
continued pending the development
of the wounds of Alexandra.

THE ADVERTISERS

The wisest merchant in the Fall
Is he that advertises,
And clears his store of remnant good
And lily sorted sizes.
He gives the printer man his ad.
And thus turns stock to money,
While other merchants doze around
And never gather honey.
It's. just as easy as can be
To win the business prizes
Just initiate the fellow who
Cuts loose and advertises!
