VICTIM OF 4 htUROER0US ASSAULT
Harry Wilcox, Oliver PoliCemaO, Mot
bed and Cut BY Gang Of Monte
nonrsns

ss~Ds sss0s
While in the act of arresting
couple of Montenegrins found in
the act of desecrating property of
the Oliver Iron Mining Co. at the
Oliver location Sunday evening,
Harry Wilcox, one of the Oliver
patrolmen, was set upon by a crowd
and severely used, being struck by
a rock in the back of the head and
receiving severe if not dangerous
cuts about the head and body.
One slash of the knife was across
the right arm, laying it open to the
bone, while another ugly cash is
above the eye, and two stabs in the
back attest the manner of fighting
indulged in by his assailants.
The affair was at point near the
Comm odore turn from the Pike
River road, and was witnessed from
a distance by several passers-by,
but before assistance could arrive
the murderous crowd had escaped.
Later FIVE men have been arrested
tor completely in the crime, three
of whom are held through their
Identification by Wilcox, who still
lies in a critical condition at the
Malmgren Hospital. These three,
giving their names as Steve Bara-
witch, Pete Taninivich and Vird
Wrklam, were taken to Duluth Jail
yesterday morning, the two others
being leleased. Two of the men,
however, are at this writing still
unapprehended, although it is un.
derstood the lines are drawing
closer as to their whereabouts and
it is expected to land the balance OF
the bunch very shortly.
AS an incentive in looking after
the missing ones the Oliver Com
pany has posted reward for
$4,000 each, and officers at all range
points are on the alert.
1t is claimed by some that the
men were intoxicated, even though
it was Sunday, but this fact would
not present strange proposition
inasmuch as blind pigs are to be
found in every direction. An order
prohibiting the delivery of beer or
liquor onto mining locations might
have salutary effect on these un-
licensed saloons, and might mater
tally assist in lessening the dangers
of a repetition of such affairs.

HOME CURE FOR
CATARRH SUFFERERS
A Simple Remedy That Gives Relief
From a Common AiIment.

"A Simple Remedy That Gives Relief
From a Common AiIment
(From the Gutenberg Press.
While there are great many peo-
pie who suffer from catarrh of the
nose and throat all the time, this
common ailment is more prevalent in
fall and winter than at any other
season of the year. Catarrh is an in
fiammation of the delicate MEM
branes and is brought on by sudden
changes in the weather, breathing
very cold air or dust, getting the
feet wet, etc.
Professor Won Sternberg. a Ger
man specialist who has had unusual
success in the treatment of nasal and
throat diseases, recommends a solu-
ton of water and vintox. Get from
your druggist an original package
1.-TWO ounces) of vintox and dissolve
it in pint of water. This should
be snuffed up the nose once or twice
daily when suffering from ''cold in
the head" or from chornic catarrh.
When the throat or larynx is affected
it should be used as a gargle. Vim
tox soothes and heals the inflamma-
ton and clears the passages
