walking east on Oronoco street when he
was approached by one Of the negroes,
who asked him if he was straight
life man. Replying in the affirmative,
he was Immediately struck with a large
rock on the forehead, over the left eye,
by one of the negroes, who held the rock
in his hand. The blow sent Mr.. Colvin
to the ground, stunning him. Without
further parleying the negroes took his
money and fed.
1t was several minutes before Mr.
Colvin recovered himself When he did
so he at once went to the residence of
| W. A. Smoot at Colross, nearby, and
| notified police headquarters of the &C.
currence. Chief Goods and Lieut.. Belts
at once went to the place and recovered
| the rock used by the negroes and also
made a search of the neighbOrhood for
| the men. In the meantime Mr.. Colvln
secured the services OF physician ana
| had his wound dressed.
Less than two hours afterward the
| police had taken in custody Hays
Jackson, alias six Bits" a negro. on
suspicion of being one Of the parties
| to the crime. Jackson had in his pos
session SIS Mr.. Colvin called at po-
lice station today, accompanied by L. T..
Dyson. local superintendent of the in
surance cmpany, and looked at Jack
SON He was not, however, able TO
identity him as his assailant. A sec
ond negro was taken into custody by

Marjorie Benson had always hated
study" says Clara Cochrane Cody in
Woman's Home Companion for August.
TO swim, ride, row, to play golf or
tennis, to manage pair Of horses haa
been her greatest pleasure. Indulgent
parents and good deal Of money had
made this possible to the age Of twenty
three.
Two years ago she found herself
alone in the world, with small, IN
sufficient income. Necessity Is often the
mother Of courage as well as Of inyen-
ton and this quick witted girl reaIiz,a
that her athletic accomplishments might
be turned to profitable account in sum
mer resort.
"She remembered summer place
where she had once spent three months
and where she knew very road for miles
about, A. well as every charming spot
on the serpentine river and along the
feautiful bathing beach. Before the sea-
son opened she settled herself in one
Of the best and pleasantcst hotels on
the beach. The proprietor allowed her
TO post up in the Office a card stating
that Miss Person was prepared to give
lessons in swimming riding, goH ten
MS. rowing and the management Of a
canoe.
Very soon, Miss Benson had more
customers than she could attend To-.
Her intimate acquaintance Of country
and river here was soon discovered, and
he was in demand to serve as picnic
guide and as Goldman for driving par
ties"
