MEXICAN STABBED
rs He LAY ASLEEP

Joe Harvey, a Mexican living on
the East Side, was stabbed and per
laps fatally wounded last night as
he lay sleeping outside his home.
Deputy Sheriffs Graham and John
son, who investigated the case, were
unable TO obtain coherent story from
the wounded man. From what they
learned il appears that the man was
sleeping outside the house and his
wife and children inside.
Tie assaiIant, robbery-bent or seek
ing revenge, lurked about the house
in the darkness and when the family
slept trod stealthily up to the sleeping
man.
He was armed with a knife and
as the sleeping man tossed and NUT
tered in his sleep the man standing
above him in the darkness stopped
and plunged the knife into the left
shoulder Of the unconscious man.
Then he fled and later Mrs. Har-
vey, wakened by his Wheeling
breath and groans, left the house and
found her husband lying in a pool OF
blood and bleeding profusely from a
wound in the left shoulder.
Unable to obtain telephone at
thai late hour, she sent friend hast
ening to inform The sheriff and al
though deputies secured the neigh
borhood they found no trace of the as
sailant.
Harvey was removed to st. Thomas
hospital. Hospital attaches were un-
able to say ths morning whether the
wounded man would recover.

w. F. Holt Orders Work
Rushed on BUILDINGS

After having made a careful study
of the report of the Los Angeles en-
gineers and architects employed by
the city to report on building condi-
tions, w. f. Holt today gave orders
for the rushing of repairs on all
buildings of the Holton Power Com
pany and the Barbara Worth hotel,
in strict conformity with the recon-
mendations made
Mr.. Holt said today he thought the
recommendations were generally well
founded and he felt that everybody
should do all possible to hasten re-
pairs along the lines of the report.
I'm some cases it will cost a little
more to make security doubly sure,
but it will eventually result to the
good of everybody.

last night rendered its formal report
to the city council The document is
a voluminous affair comprising 110
typewriter pages.
Concurring in the recommendation
of the report for set of specifications
as well as regulations to minimize
fire danger, Mayor A. w. Swanson
announced that it was probable com
mittee of three, to act in the capacity
of city inspectors, would be appointed
by the city.
The investigation of the committee
of each building was made on the fol
lowing basis:
l, What was the actual damage to
the building.
2. What proportion of the building
was so damaged as to impair the sta /
bility and safety of the remainder.
3. What, in their judgment, would
be the cheapest method of making
repairs necessary to insure the safety
of the building and to insure reason
able security against further damage

DED. DOIN'S
Are BEGUN

Though the clouds we're splitting rain
most of the day, Scott Ferris arrived
in the city this morning from his home
in Lawton, being the only one of the
out-of-town speakers to appear, as per
schedule, to participate in the dedica-
tion of the federal building.
Mr. Ferris stated that it was exceed
ingly difficult for him to leave home
this morning and that he really re-
gretted the necessity that tore him
away, as his wife was busily engaged
in spring house cleaning However, he
appeared to be in fairly genial frame
of mind and as he visited among his
many friends here, it was difficult to
note that there was certain sadness
under his mask of geniality.
Col Barefoot received letters from
Senator Pugh and Joe Thompson, stat
ing that it would be impossible for
them to be here Also, Col. T. j.
O'Neill is busy in Oklahoma City and
could not attend. Senator Gore is not
IN the state.
The inspection of the building pro
ceeded throughout the day and the
speaking was scheduled to start at the
court house at 3 o'clock.

Deafness Cannot he Cured

BY alocal applications. as they . cannO

Theme is only one way to cure Deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by en- inf1amed condi-
ton of the mucous lining of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube is infiamed
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result and unless the in
fiammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh.
which is nothing but an infiamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

Boom of Riu Guns.

Early in April, 1912. man living at Hambledon, near Godalming. wrote to the Spectator, saying: As l sat read ing the other afternoon l heard, or, rather felt. long vibrating boom sev- eral times repeated. l thought at first it was a motor van maneuvering be- hind the house, but found nothing there. Then I guessed what it might be and forthwith wrote to the chief Eunnery officer of his majesty's ship Orion to make sure. l am therefore able to state that the discharge of the Orion's guns was distinctly audible ninety statute miles from the ship, the sound taking somewhere about eleven minutes to travel the dis tance."
 An even more remarkable instance of the immense distance at which gun fire can be heard was afforded at the time of the French victory at Stein bach. The booming of the guns was distinctly heard on the northern slopes of the Bernese Alps far down in Switzerland The distance is just eighty miles as the crow flies, and ill this case it must be remembered that the guns were not the 13.5 naval giants, but merely field artillery.-Lon. don Opinion.
