Prosecuting Attorney Attacked

Prosecuting Attorney Ralph Nor
pell was viciously attacked at six
o'colck Friday evening of last week
by Mrs. Mary Sheets, widow woman
about fifty years of age, who lives
in the L Jnsing block. At the hour
named the woman knocked on the
door of Mr.. Norpell's office and as
soon as it was opened slashed him
across the face with knife and also
cut his hand before she was disarmed.
Shortly after Mrs. Sheets appeared
at the police station with tale of
having been assaulted by the attorney
and was directed to prefer charges at
the municipal court, this she failed to
do. Mr.. Norpell says Mrs. Sheets has
already been before the probate court
on a lunacy charge and barely escaped
being sent to the state hospital, but
was told by the judge that she would
land there if she appeared before him
second time. Saturday morning the
prosecutor filed affidavit for an in
quest and at the hearing Monday
morning Mrs. Sheets was adiudged
insane and will be sent to the asylum
in Columbus.

RESIST PROPOSED WAGE cur
Firm Position in Opposition to
IL Per Cent Reduction.

The four big railroad brotherhoods
in Canada announced they would joint
ly contest the II per cent wage cut
which has been put into effect on the
Canadian railroads. They have ap-
piled to the government for board
of conciliation.
Representatives of the Order Of
Railway Conductors, the Order Of
Railway Telegraphers, the Brother
hood of Engineers and Firemen and
the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen
reached their decision after a ten-day
conference in Montreal. They also
considered taking a referendum vote
of the membership on the wage reduc-
tiOns.
David Campbell, solicitor of Calgary,
formerly president of the Order OF
Railway Telegraphers was designated
as representative of the railway Or
ganiZations.
The decision of the unions to take
joint action is said to be unprece-
dented.

destroyed and about $500 worth of
damage done to the telephone cables,
much to the inconvenience of sub
scribers until they were restored to
working condition.

Hold Up Saturday Night

A. S. Russell, manager of the
Kroger grocery on Hudson avenue,
was held up near his home on Fulton
ave., Saturday night by three men and
robbed of 5000. At the time the rob-
berry occurred the west end was in
darkness owing to the lights being
put out of commission by the storm,
but people were on their porches on
the opposite side of the street. This
is Mr.. Russell's second experience in
the hold up game as he was the victim
of an attempted robbery in his store
several months ago when he was
knocked down by Jim Driscoll who
was attempting to rob the till, but
was afterwards caught and turned
over to the police.
