the abdomen, on the arms and legs.
The man, from what we can learn,
entered the ice cream parlor at In

served with ice cream or some other
article. The boy refused to serve
him. and upon his refusal the negro
pulled a razor and slashed him and
another man, who went to the rescue
Of the little fellow. Young Quinn
was Immediately placed on govern
ment tug and rushed to a hospital,
where he now lies in a preearious
condition. His many friends extend
him their sympathy and hope that
the wounds will soon heal and that
he will soon be restored to his usual
happy and active young life.
