Geo. Bell, Plasterer, Alleged to
Have Used Knife Upon Chas.
Butler-Latter's Lung
Punctured.
OUTCOME OF A BEER PARTY
Butler is Now at Mercy Hospital and
and it is Thought he Will
Recover.

Another disgraceful affair-the
outcome of beer party-took place
on Saturday evening in the woods
north of the Illinois Central viaduct
near the river. AS a result, Charles
Butler lies in Mercy hospital with a
knife wound puncturing his lung,
with marks of the weapon on his
shoulder, and his assailant, George
Bell, a plasterer of this city, is en-
joying his liberty on a $500 cash
bond. 1t is thought Butler will re-
cover.
The stabbing affray occurred
about Z o'clock in the evening when
a good sized party Of congenial
friends We're gathered about the
foaming contents of an eight gallon
keg of beer. Both men were intoxi-
Gated and Bell claims that Butler
tried to take one dollar bill away
from him. Bell denies using knife.
but a knife was unmistakably used
upon Buffers body.
Sheriff Nelson and his deputy took
Bell into custody Sunday morning
but upon the furnishing Of a $500
cash bond, he was given his liberty
and the case set for next morning in
Justice fuckers court.
The defendant. however, waived
proceedings and was
bound over to the grand jury.
The keg of beer, which is at the
bottom of this stabbing affair, was
shipped into the city Saturday af-
ternoon by express. George Bell is
a plasterer by trade, and has a wife
and three children. Butler is a
young man of about twenty-five
years and unmarried. He is q son Of
the late A. n Butler.
