CHINAMAN GETS
BANDIT WITH
BULLET

Some excitement was caused on
Tacoma avenue last evening by
the reports of revolver shots that
came from the shop of Sam King,
a Chinese merchant, 1912 Tacoma
avenue.
Two strangers had entered the
store, and when Sans head was
turned they hit him, felling him
to the floor. When Sam fell he
was able to grab revolver, which
he keeps in the store, having had
such Pyperiences before, and be-
gan firing at his assailants, who
5 ncaly made a hasty retreat for
the door, one of them falling out
side with a bullet wound in the
neck.
The injured man was removed
to the Fannie Paddock hospital
where the bullet was extracted.
The doctor says that the wound
will not prove fatal The man
gave the name of Victor Vinge
and claims to be an innocent pas
serby but the police place no
credence in his story.

CHARGED WITH AWFUL CRIME
OF BEING A YOUNG MAN

The outrageous crime of being
a young man" has been charged
against Judge e. M. Card, who is
candidate for the superior
judgeship in this county. Try as
he will Judge Card cannot dodge
the terrible facts. 1t is on rec
ord that he first saw the light but
81 years ago an dhe stands con-
victed of this most henious Of
fense.
1t is not certain just what can
be done about this crime as the
judge has certainly been caught
with the goods on" The mon
strous part of the offense is that
Card is even now holding a Justice
of the peaceshfp in Tacoma. He
dared to enter this Office In full
knowledge and with forethought
that he was young man.
Card was born "a years ago at
Monroe, Iowa. He came to Ia
coma in 1889.
Judge Card is graduate of the
Tacoma High school. He also
took a degree from the school of
political science and law at Stan
ford university in California. Cor
nell university also granted him
law school degree.
Since his elevation to the JUS
tdce bench, Judge Card has tried
1900 cases, which Is more ex-
perience than most lawyers get in
years of effort. His success made
him a favorite in the primaries
and his election seems almost
assured.
However, he stands charged
with the terrible crime Of being
a young man.
Two years ago Judge Card mar.
ried Miss Jeanne johnson Of Ia
coma.

Produce Market
In New Dock

The carrying of the municipal
dock proposition next Saturday by
the voters will probably mean the
organization of a great produce
exchange to operate in the dock.
The suggestion has been made
TO Mayor Fawcett and the project
tentatively outlined.
The produce exchanges where
organized in other cities have
been great aids in developing the
agricultural facilities of the sur
rounding country and money
makers in the bargain. With an
exchange in the dock it would
tend to make the dock paying
proposition and at the same time
would bring the island trade to
Tacoma and help develop agricul-
ture and horticulture on these fer
tile lands.
