w. G.. Schneider, city marshal OF

serious injury at least, a day or two
ago.
The marshal had occasion to arrest
John Leslie. a nkf character,
on the charge of being drunk, and
this, it appears. greatly angered Leslie.
After getting out of h difficulty ne
met the marshal upon the street ana
after exchanging a few words with the
officer, without warning drew a knife
and slashed ~viciOusly at the mar
shall.
One of the strokes went through the
officers sleeve and broke. the skin.
while another lunge sent the point OF
the knife through the officers cloth
ing. Had there not been an obstruc-
ton in the shape of the watch. which
the point of the knife struck, the mar
shall would have been killed or serious
ly injured. Before the Infatuated man
could do further damage he was over
powered by the officer and taken to

at the next term of state circuit court

The continuance of easy money is,
