WOMAN’S VICIOUS WORK.
\lmost Cnt Man’s Slionlder Off With
a Razor.
Willie Williams, colored, of No. 555
Roberts street, was badly cut yester
day with a razor, by Rebecca Mungin,
at her home, No. 616 New street. The
woman was held by a citizen and
turned over to Patrolman Umbach,
who was sent to the West Side from
headquarters. She is charged with as
sault with intent to murder and will
be given a preliminary examination by
Recorder Myrlck in Police Court this
morning.
Williams claims that the assault was
without provocation, although he ad
mits that the razor used is his prop
erty. The cut is on the left shoulder,
about eight inches lung and quite deep.
The wounded man had to be sent in
the police ambulance to the Georgia
Infirmary for treatment, and there he
told the story of the assault to a
representative of the Morning News.
The negro claims that he had been
boarding with the Mungin woman, and
that she did not appear to like the idea
of his leaving her. She became angry
when he stated his intention of going
to reside with his aunt, on Roberts
street, and he claims that she fussed
at him for several days because he
slept at his aunt’s house. Williams
says that he went to the house yester
day to get his trunk, and that the
woman got hs razor out, and made the
vicious swing, landing the sharp blade
on the shoulder.
The prisoner tells an entirely differ
ent story and says that she was forced
to use the razor. Williams wanted to
take his trunk without paying her, and
she protested. She had washed some
clothing for him and she suggested
that he give her something as security,
if he did not have the money. The wo
man says that with an oath Williams
announced that he would give her all
the security she was looking for.
He went into his trunk, she says,
and brought out the razor. He was in
furiated and ordered her from the
house, at the same time making an
effort to cut her. She says that she
pushed him and that he dropepd his
weapon. She grapped it up hurried
ly and made the wound already de
scribed. The prisoner declares that
Williams had broken in her door and
that she felt that she had to use the
razor to save her life. The wounded
man’s condition is not regarded as se
rious.
‘•BIG OXES" BOUT OFF.
But Snvnunnh Sport* Will Frame up
a rhainpionxhip Event Anyhow.
The Jeffries-Ruhlin bout Will not be
pulled off in Savannah. This was made
known yesterday by a telegram re
ceived from Billy Madden, Ruhlln’s
manager, who stated that the Jef
fries-Sharkey contest is to be pulled
off in San Francisco in September,
and that Ruhlin has been matched to
meet the winner of that bout.
While those back of the effort to
bring the men to Savannah were much
disappointed by the disarrangement of
their plans they still intend to have a
first-class boxing show here during the
State Fair and as all the heavyweights
in the championship class are tied up
with engagements, they expect to ar
range for a championship affair in one
of the other classes, middle, or welter
weight. A1 McMurray said last night
that there need be no doubt that the
match would be arranged between top
notrhers.
The manager of the Savannah Ath
letic Club and the others Interested In
promoting boxing in Savannah say that
far from public sentiment being against
having a first-class bout here, the
gieat majority of the people are in
,or of a nd that it is opposed by
only a small class.

J arty * s a b| KS er thing than any of
the candidates. Let the committee of
i , e .P arty ca " a Primary election and
let those who are Democrats enter it.”
Present Rules Won’t Work.
r * illink did not see how a prim
ary was to be conducted, with eight
candidates in the race, under the pres
ent primary rules of the party. These
rules contemplate a contest between
two factions and provide that each fac
tion shall have the right to name two
managers and one clerk at each box.
Mr. Willink was unable to see how the
selection of managers was to be made
in such manner as to give all the can
didates representation.
Then Mr. Lawrence withdrew a part
of his motion, that part of it which
named a day for holding the primary,
and left it so that it provided simply
that a primary should be held and that
a committee should be appointed to
confer with the County Commissioners,
find out when the regular election will
take place and report back to the ex
ecutive committee the information thus
secured.
Mr. John Juchter managed to at
tract the eye of the chairman at this
juncture. He said he did not want to
vote for a primary unless he was ad
vised beforehand what sort of a pri
mary it was likely to be.
I don t want any more primaries,”
he said, “like that we had last year.
I don’t want to see the scenes that
were witnessed on that occasion re
peated. Vote buying, and, what is just
as bad, the driving of poor laborers
to the polls and making them vote,
ought to be stopped. It's time they
were stopped.”
"I will say for the information of
Mr. Juchter,” said the chairman, ‘‘that
no primary has ever been held under
the rules at present in force in the
party in this county. As for vote buy
ing and selling the state law looks after
that.”
“Well, it never has looked after it,”
retorted Mr. Juchter.
“Why don’t you join the Law and
Order League, Mr. Juchter?” Mr. Law
rence queried, and a quiet laugh went
through the court room.
The Prlmnr.v Approved.
Mr. W. T. Leopold said that the
County Commissioners seemed to have
practically decided, though they have
taken no official action on the subject,
that the regular election will not be
held until October. There was np use,
he thought, of holding the primary too
far in advance of that time, as there
were very many residents and voters
of the county who are away and
would be away until the last of Sep
tember or the early part of October.
Mr. Willink then moved to amend
Mr. Lawrence’s motion, by striking out
that portion of it which called for a
primary and adding a provision for the
appointment of a committee of four,
two from either faction of the party
represented on the committee, to draft
rules for a primary and report at a
subsequent meeting. This amendment
was lost, the vote being eight to eight
and the chairman voting against it,
thus breaking the tie and defeating the
motion.
The original motion of Mr. Lawrence,
that a primary should be held and that
a committee should be appointed to
confer with the County Commissioners,
touching the date of the regular elec
tion, was then placed on its passage
and carried by a vote of ten to six.
This committee the chairman will ap
point before the meeting of the com
missioners on next Thursday. This ac
tion taken, the committee adjourned.
CAME FOR CRAZY SON.
Negro of Alierdeene, Miss.. Got His
Boy From the Police.
Robert E. Ward, the 19-year-old col
ored man arrested by the police for
vagrancy several days ago. and who
turned out to be demented, left yester
day with his father, F. N. B. Ward, for
his home at Aberdeene, *Miss. The
young negro's case is a rather sad one,
although his father has reason to be
lieve that he will be cured of his ail
ment.
Young Ward is a graduate of the
Aberdeene normal school and is a
Batin scholar of some consequence. He
left his home in 1900 and went to New
Orleans. In March of that year he left
on a transport, loaded with mules,
consigned to the English government
at Cape Town, South Africa. Ward
enlisted in the Imperial Hospital Corps
in Africa, and remained there until
last May when he went to London.
He was taken sick and arrived in
New York last month insane. He was
taken to Bellevue Hospital and there
stated that he was from Savannah. The
authorities in that city placed him on
a boat and sent him here, where he
was found wandering on the streets by
the police.
His father learned of his arrival in
New York and was told that the sick
man had been shipped to Savannah. He
wired Supt. Reilly and learned that his
son had already been arrested as a
vagrant. He immediately left for this
city and arrived yesterday. The elder
Ward is a carpenter, and is a man of
some means. He does not consider his
son's condition alarming, and In fact
a decided improvement has been no
ticed since his confinement. He real
izes what he is held for, and says that
he has a strange feeling in his head.
TOOK MAYOR’S HAT.
Some One Left n Better Grade of
Straw, However.
Someone switched hats with Acting
Mayor Dixon in the City Exchange yes
terday, and the city official is wearing
a better grade of straw, although a
half a size too large. The Mayor has
quite a number of callers during his
stay at the Exchange, and is at a loss
to know who could have gotten hold of
his bonnet.
But for the fact that the hat left on
the rack is a little better quality Mr.
Dixon would be tempted to believe that
his hat was taken purposely. He thinks
that he is the winner by the mistake,
however, and if the owner of the hat
does not show up, the Acting Mayor
will probably get a pad and make the
hat to fit him. At first it was believed
that the hat had been left by Aider
man Watson, but this- turned out to
be a mistake.

A FLORIDA HEIRESS.
linzpl Silvia Wood Doesn’t Believe
It—Others Ditto, Maybe.
From the Philadelphia North Ameri
can.
Omaha, Neb., July 31.—Hazel Silvis
Wood, who tried to kill herself because
she could not borrow sls, refuses to
believe that she is heir to a fortune es
timated at $1,000,000 left by her father,
James B. Silvis, of Tallahassee, Fla.
The physicians told the young woman
of the legacy, and in proof of it point
ed out the costly flowers which had
been placed in the room.
“The Christian Home people have
brought those,” she said.
While the local attorneys represent
ing the estate were searching the city
to discover the whereabouts of a Miss
Silvis the girl was attempting self-de
struction by morphine in the belief that
she was without friends and money.
The lawyers learned her identity
through the newspapers.
At the directioa of County Attorney
Shields Police Surgeon Borglum, who
attended the girl, has been succeeded
by the most skilful physicians in
Omaha hospitals. They have given as
surances of their patient’s recovery.
The squalid apartment where she swal
lowed the morphine on Saturday night
has been equipped with electric fans
and converted into a bower of roses.
County Attorney Shields this morn
ing filed with County Judge Vlnsonha
ler a petition for the probate of Silvis’
will.’ Appended is a memorandum that
Dr. Baldwin of Elkhorn, will purchase
immediately for *17,000 the 160-acre
farm near Elkhorn, owned by the de
cedent. The will specified that In Leon
county. Fla., Silvis left orange groves
and bank stock valued at nearly a mil
lion dollars. The sum is estimated by
the revenue stamps attached to the
petition^
Silvis was the first photographer to
locate in Nebraska. He came to the
state and secured from the government
the land at Elkhorn in 1859. Twenty
,two years later he moved to Florida on
account of his health. Shortly after
wards he married, he and his wife
separating after living a few years to
gether unhappily. The mother and
daughter went to Spartansburg, Fla.,
losing track of the father. The girl’s
first husband died. The second was
unkind to her. A few months ago she
resolved to make her own way In the
world, and came to Omaha. She has a
son 5 years old.
WAITS IN VAIN FOR J. O. PAINE.

Customer of the Absent Broker.
From the New York Tribune.
Magistrate Flammer in the Essex
Market Court yesterday adjourned the
hearing In the case of J. Overton
Paine, the broker, ontll Sept. 4. Paine
Is charged with swindling a customer
in a stock transaction. Magistrate
Flammer ordered ex-Judge Swansig to
draw up a formal complaint against
Paine, and told ''Abe” Gruber and Mr.
McManus, who represented Paine, that
he believed it advisable for Paine to

any return for his money.
"Your Honor,” said Mr. Gruber, "Mr.
Paine is several hundred miles away
