MAN in HOSPITAL BADLY HURT
John Raquinta, Alleged to Have Been
Slashed With Razor in Hand of James
Aliv But Neither Man Will Tell
the Story of the Cutting.

AS result Of cutting ARRAY at the
corner of Garden and Congress streets
just after four O'Clock Sunday after
noon, John Raquinta, who gave his adj
dress as 272 Garden street, is in the
Kenosha hospital suffering from knife
wound more than foot in length, and
Jim Oliviere or Jim Alivi, is held at the
county Jail on charges of attempted
murder. The deepest mystery sur
rounds the ARRAY as neither the wound
ed man in the hospital or the man held
in Jail would make any statements in
regard to it,. The man in the hospital
refused to give his name until this
morning and the man in jail is booked
under two different names.
Alivi or Oliviere was employed at
the tannery. The injured man is
twenty three years of age and unmar-
ried. 1t required fifteen stitches to
close up the frightful wound in his
back and while he was declared to be
resting easily at the hospital today DR..
G. E. Thompson, the physician in
charge of the case, was unwilling to
make any predictions in regard to the
outcome Of the injury. The man who
is alleged to have done the cutting will
probably be arraigned on the charge of
attempted murder some time late this
afternoon and the hearing continued
pending the development of the in
jury to Raquinta.
The two men both live in the neigh
borhood where the cutting took place
and when the police reached the scene
of the fight they found no one who
could make any statement as to what
it was all about. When Alivi was taken
by the police after long chase, he had
blood stained razor in his pocket.
Police Officers McGivern, Bienne-
mann and Rock answered the call on
the case and when tehy reached the
corner there was no one in sight.
Nearly block away they found the
injured man and he was very weak
from loss of blood. A block further
on they saw the other mar running
about house and they gave chase.
Alivi proved to be something Of a run
ner and he led the officers long chase
before they found him. The injured
man was taken to the hospital and an
examination showed that the cut in his
back was nearly eighteen inches long.

DISPLAY ODD FLAG.
Nash Motors Company Have Interest
ing Display Of Banners Used in
Mexican Campaign.

Up in the offices of the Nash Motors
Company, manufacturers of Jeffrey mo-
tor cars and trucks, they are displaying
what is probably the first "battle
flag" ever designed and used by a
motor truck company in the United
States Army. Members of truck com
pany No. l, u. S. A, which consists
entirely of Jeffery quads, sent the en-
blem to Fl. G. Hart, truck sales mana
ger of the Nash organization.
In each corner of the flag there is
either pair of crossed American flags
or a spread eagle, while across a blue
circle on red background appear the
words "Jeffery Quad" in white letter
ing. "Truck Co. No. 10 is inscribed
over the circle, and ecu. S. A.'' beneath
it.
It is fitting that this truck company
should be the first out with its official
banner, for it was the first motor trans
port company Uncle Sam organized.
Incidentally, it was the first to skip
across the Mexican border in the wake
of Gen. Pershing's troops.

Chicago, is the last surviving guest Of
that double wedding Of sixty-nine years
ago, Mr.. Bullene sister Susan and
Mr.. Milo Sykes having been married
at the same time. Mr. and Mrs Bull
lene lived to celebrate their sixty
seventh wedding anniversary in Law
renee, Kansas, where their home had
been for many years. They were resi-
dents of Lawrence at the time of the
fiendish raid of Quantrell's "Border
Ruffans" when one hundred and fifty
seven unarmed citizens, whose only of
Tense was that they were "Free State
Men, were shot down before their
wives and children and the town was
burned. Mr.. Bullene was in New York
buying goods for his stores in Lawrence
and Kansas City.
BY stratagen Mrs. Bullene saved
the home. She had some warning of
what was happening in other parts of
the town. She directed her mother to
go to bed. On the approach of the
"Border Rufians,'' she plead with
them not to burn the house down over
her sick mother. The leader entered
the house, saw the mother "who acted
we'll her part" and going out said,
"boys we won't burn this house, sick
lady in there After the unspeak-
able tragedy, Mrs. Bullene with her
children, came to Kenosha and re-
manned year. Few survive who knew
the deceased in her younger days.
Descendants of her contemporaries ex-
press profound sympathy for the
bereaved.
