 Bandits

NEW YORK, August 26.-While Manhattan enjoyed the return of summer weather, bandits committed two daring murders in the midst of Sunday crowds and carried of $25,000 worth of furs under the eyes of amazed onlookers.
 Scores of persons saw Frank Katz stabbed a dozen times by an assail- ant who fled down crowded 12Oth street, pursued by more than hun dred men and boys. The assailant es- capped by ducking into tenement basement. Before he died at hos pital Katz gave police the name of the murderer, who Katz said was jealous of him without cause.
 Two gunmen walked up to Moe Schwartz in crowded Delaney street and pumped three bullets into his back without saying word. Then they ran into the crowd and escaped, passing two policemen running to- ward the scene of the shooting. A police station was less than 150 feet away.
 Schwartz was unable to give any clue to the mems identity before he died in the police station. His part ner in bus business stated that he had left their office few minutes earlier. saying that he had business appointment.
 Under the eyes of dwellers in a fashionable hotel, who were aroused by the crash of glass, three men broke a plate glass window in a Seventy fourth street fur store and made off with several fur coats, valued at $25 900 in all.
 The trio worked calmly, although the bedroom windows of the hotel across the street were filled With startled spectators. Jumping into a waiting automobile, they escaped down West End avenue, although pursued by two automobiles.

 ID MASS MEET IHG
 BY MRS. HAWKINS
First Avenue Parking QueS- ton Affects Entire City,
 Statement Declares

Final action will be taken by citi- zens of East Lake and Woodlawn on tte First avenue parking question at a mass meeting at Woodlawn city hall at o'clock Monday night. ac- cording to Mrs. J. M. Hankins, pres ident of the East Lake Boulevard as- sociation.
 Conferences have been held with J. s. Pevear, co-receiver of the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power company, during the last week by a committee headed by Von l.. Thompson, attorney. Following these conferences and adoption of resolu- tions by various organizations in op- position to parking the avenue, the matter was put up to Judge w. I. Grubb of federal court, under whose jurisdiction the utility comes. He Is expected to make a decision on the committees recommendation in the next few days.
 At the meeting Monday night, 1t is expected that a petition will be circulated for signing by citizens att tending, urging Judge Grubb to in- struct the co-receiyers to modify the agreement with the city to meet the wishes of the east end citizens.
 This matter vitally affects the en- tire city" declares Mrs. Hankins in a statement calling the meeting. "Citizens from all over the city are urged to be present. Nothing defi- mite .has been accomplished and all protests heretofore made have been insufficient to obtain results. The utility seems determined to hold to It's rights as provided for in thes contract. Join your voice of protest to that of other citizens and make a protest that the company will not be willing to ignore. Come and help save First avenue for the people"
 Little difference Is seen between the paving demands of the citizens and the stipulations of the agree ment between the city and the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power company. Parking is the chief pro- vision objected to.

 George Godfrey the 225-pound ne- gro, continually stuck a left hand into Dempsey's face during their two rounds to keep the champion off bal ance so he could not whip over a crushing right or left hook. Demp- sey, however, managed to connect solidly half a dozen times on the ne- gro's chin. rocking him to his heels.
