RAzORS ARE
FREELY USED
Gary People Wax Wroth Over Re-
peated Slashing Among Gary's
Colored Element and Want the
Levee District Cleaned Out of I'm
desirable Citizens.

Another of those nasty negro
cutting scrapes took place late Satur-
day night in the saloon Broadway,
near Eleventh avenue, known as little
Hungary" The victim, John Henry
Henderson, and the one who assaulted
him, Tom Tit, were engaged accord
ing to the story related by Henderson
in gambling game In which the stakes
were fifty cents apiece when they be-
came involved In the quarrel.
Negro Found Floor.
After the slashing of razors had
ceased. Henderson was found lying
prone on the floor a stream of blood
running from his face which was cut
into ribbons Six bad gashes were
inflicted before the man who commit
ted the assault left his Victim and run
ming out the back made made his es-
cape. The police were hot on his trail
but were unable to land him. A ply
stefan was called at once and dressed
the wounds which were not as serious
as they appeared.
Citizens Wax Indignant.
The citizens of Gary are becoming
indignant over the cutting scrapes in
which the lawless colored element of
the city is becoming involved. The
reason that the feeling has not be-
come greater is because of the fact
that in most cases they are confident
their trouble to themselves and are not
bothering the whites. The mecca of
the lawless colored men of the city
seems to be the place where the last
cutting affair took place the Little
Hungary" a gambling joint run by
one J. BENJAMIN Klein
One of City's Eyesores.
This place is one of Gary's sore
spots The man has been repeatedly
warned to run a respectable place, and
has ignored the city officials in every
lawless act which he has perpetrated.
The conditions existing in this place
has reached such a stage where the
proprietor's license should be uncondi-
tionally revoked. without further con-
sideration.

rested Saturday,
Especial to THE TIMEs)

Whiting, Ind, April 24.-Quite an
several weeks ago was brought out
Saturday when Mrs. Gazetta Zubay of
New York avenue appeared at the po-
lice station and asked for a warrant
for Albert Surman and John Wright
on the charge of assault and battery.
Surman and Wright are Singer sew
ing machine agents, employed by the
South Chicago office A little over
three months ago Mrs. Zubay gave
them her old machine in trade for a
new one, for which she was allowed
SIS. The rate to be paid was IS per
month, and for the SIS it would not
be necessary for Mrs. Zubay to make.
a payment for three months.
Come For Payment.
When the three months were up the
men went after the payment. When
they saw no money forthcoming they
picked up the machine and started
away with it. Mrs. Zubay went after
them with a broom Surman held the
broom so Wright could get away with
the machine. w nen ne thought lie al
given his partner ample time to get
TO the wagon he let go of the broom
and he. too, started on a run. When
he got downstairs he was surprised to
find Wright stuck between the house
with the machine and unable to bulge.
WieIds the Broom. :.
This gave the angered woman an
other chance to get them, and before
the trouble was ended the machine was
badly broken and half of the attach
ments, which Mrs. Zubay had thrown
into the street, were missing.
Saturday was the first time the men
have visited Whiting since the excite
ment occurred and Mrs. Zubay, who
was watching for them. went to the
station and warrants were sworn out
for their arrest. They were brought
to the station and were placed under
s25 bonds TO appear for trial on Au-
gust 26.
Their manager came out from South
Chicago and signed the bonds and
they were released.

most every large city Of the East,
It has played in New York at the

the only American drama by an

Not long ago there was a certain
salesman In dry goods shop Of an
Ohio city who was habltually observ-
Ing to bis fellow clerks that the con-
Germ would find It rather difficult to
get along without him. These re-
marks coming to the ear Of the senior
partner Of the firm, he decided to in
terylew his clerk concerning them.
"Mr. Spotts," said the partner, with
a grim smile, although you have not
proved to be our most efficient clerk,
yet we have appreciated such service
as you have condescended to render us
during the intervals when you were
not expatlating on your own merits
Now we have lately heard 1t said that
II you were to die the business would
have some trouble In surviving the
loss This has worried us n good deal,
for you, like all of us, are liable to

"Vor this reason, therefore, we have
concluded, for our peace Of mind, to
experiment while all Of us are in good
health in order that we may agcer-
tain whether the firm can bear up
under your loss. You win accordingly
consider yourself dead for the period
Of one month, and we will try to see
whether we can get along without you
for that length Of time. "--HarpeTs.
