OF CUTTING WIFE
jim KEE. RESIDENT OF OIL
VIA STREET, sURRENDERs
TO AUTHORITIES SOME
TIME THIS MORNING

Last night Jim Lee, colored,
who, with his wife. lives on Oil
via street, decided that his wife
needed severe treatment and that
the proper instrumnt to use was
a knife.
The story of his attempt at
chastisement shows that he went
to bed. with an ordinary knife in
his hand and machete under the
bed. He started to assault his
wife. lShe caught the knife and a
struggle ensued.
Jim attempted to wrest the
knife from her but she chung
tenaciously to the weapon and so
tight was her grip that in the
struggles that followed the blade
of the weapon snapped. She sus-
tanned several deep gashes on the
hand that was holding the knife.
An alarm was sounded and of
ficers Of the police force and the
sheriff'y office responded. They
failed to locate Jim, who after
wards decided to surreder and
early this morning reported to the
sheriff.s office and was placed in
Jail. He will be given a hearing
tomorrow before Rogelio Gomez,
justice of the peace.
Moses Green, colored, charged
with assault and battery, will be
given hearing tomorrow before
Justice Of the Peace Frank o.
Roberts.
Felix Gibson is to be heard on a
charge of assault and battery be-
fore Justice Rogelio Gomez this
afternoon.

Mooney on remaining murder

dictment on court records resur-
rected by Mooney defense with
the hope of acquittal would pro-
vide a moral wedge for MONEYS

ton to State Attorney General
Webb.
District Attorney Matthew

The remarkable development in
these experimental studies of the
migration of doves, says Mr.. De-
merritt, is that the birds were all
shot to the northward of Key
West, when it was heretofore be-
lieved that they would have con-
tinued to the southwark. How
ever, it appears that they were
satisfied with the conditions found
in Florida and decided not to
leave the state.
