Waltham, Mass-As the result OF a
riot which occurred shortly after 6
o'clock Wednesday evening between
the strikers and men who have hiied
their places at the bleacheTy and dye
works, Waltham, Robert Walsh, aged
IS years, lies seriously injured at his
home or HiVer street, Waltham; Nj
bert Sevigni OF Chapel street, New
ton, is suffering from a wound about
four inches in length just over his left
ear, and five or six others who en-
gagged in the fight received injuries
of minor nature.
Walsh, who is one of the strikers,
received a dangerous wound on the
chest, caused by a heavy blow with
an ice pick. The point of the pick ran
deep into his body and barely escaped
piercing his heart. His condition is
critical. Sevigni's injury Is not of a
serious nature and consists only Of a
bad scalp wound.
The injured men were removed to
nearby houses and were attended by
DR. Richard Hinckey and Dr. Henry
Wood, who were sent by the police to
the scene of the alteration.
DR.. Wood who attended young
Walsh, found that the wound, which
was not long one, though rather
wide ran over two inches deep. He
stated that he did not believe that the
boys injuries would prove fatal
though there was internal bleeding
and large clot of blood lodged on
the left side, about five inches below
the wound.
Gerry Pelleteim 10. Of West street,
Newton, was arrested by Officers Nc
Namara and Regan of Watertown and
is held by the Watertown police on
the charge of assault upon Walsh
with a dangerous weapon. He will be
arraigned in the district court at Wal.
than. His bail was fixed at $4,000. and
a party of friends who called at the
police station after his arrest for the
purpose OF furnishing bonds were un-
able to give the amount required.
The trouble occurred on Pleasant
street, Watertown, about 500 yards
from the bleachery and dye works. A
crowd Of strikers and their followers
| assembled there about $50 and wait
ed In hiding for the strikebreakers
who pass that way going to their
homes in Newton. They were at
taol,eI hy tho strikers, VINO usen
stones and clubs freely. At the time
Christopher A. Breen, proprietor Of
kho nP Now
ton, and Gerry Pelleteim were pass
| ing In a wagon owned by the e. How
ard Ice company of Watertown and
one Of the stones struck the former. 1t
is alleged that Pelleteim took the ice
pick and, jumping from the wagon,
struck Walsh, causing the wound
which may prove fatal
Pelleteim ran toward Watertown af-
ter the assault was committed, but
was overtaken by the strikers and
held until officers arrived. He was
bailed out in $500.
During the alteration number Of
strikebreakers received injuries of a
minor nature, but they ran quickly
toward home and did not attempt to
resist the attack of their assailants.
Since the strike started about six
weeks ago a number Of men have been
engaged to fill the places vacated by
the strikers and the majority of these
reside in Nonantum district. At the
present time there are about 275 of
the old employees out on strike, and
more trouble is threatened If the new
men continue to fill their places.

White Animals Can't Smell.

Pure white animals" said a pet
stock dealer, have no sense of smell
Hence they are continually eating
things that disagree with them, and
in eight cases out of ten poison them

Pure white pigs should never be
allowed to run loose in the field and

of sense of smell such pigs, when
they get out. eat all sorts of poisonous
roots and berries and die of rapidly.
