NEGRO RAZOR WIELDER
CUTS SWATH IN STREET
Policeman an Artful Dodger and Ar
rests Mon and Wife.

There was general relief in the vicin-
ity of Eleventh and Lombard streets to-
day when the residents heard that Charlie
Diamond the Negro "cut up" was in
Jail. Diamond, according to the police, is
justly named, Last night, 1t appears, the
rain spoiled his program of social diver
sion and being unable to tango at his
favorito place. he found fault with things
in general and persons in Lombard street
in particular.
Diamonds wrath eventually reached
such high pitch that he took his sharp
est razor and went out to look for some
real trouble. The police say he carried
the razor in his hand ready for action.
1t appears this caused some comment and
enabled Diamond to have an abundance
of room on the sidewalk Two or three
remarks from passersby reused Diamond
to the proper pitch, and. according to the
police, he attempted to cut number
of men and women on Lombard street.
When Jacob Holland, OF 9O5 Lombard
street, tried to stop Diamond the razor
wielder's wife suddenly appeared and
Mr.. and Mrs. Diamond made Holland
declare for peace.
But Policeman Nelson. of the 18th and
Pine streets station. is razor proof and,
after some artistic lodging. he spoiled
the fun and brought both Mr. and Mrs.
Diamond to the station house.
Diamond was held in $500 and his wife
In $500 bail for court.
