mornlnf when the two negio despera

sistance made by Sword-in and made
their escape.
A revolver in the hands of one of
the would-be roooere save him cour
age for a moment, but he wilted when
a long butcher knife in the hands of
Swerdlln flashed before his eyes In
an instant he was in precipitate flight,
with his dusky partner in crime u
< lose second behind him
Swerdlin was waiting on some early
morning customers when the two ne
groes entered the store and asked to
get warm at the stove Swerdlin had
seen neither of them before
Whips Out Revolver.
They loafed about the stove until
the customers had departed and then
one of them walked toward the pro
prietor, whipping a revolver from
his pocket and calling: “Hands up."'
Swerdlin. taken by surprise, obeyed.
Rut when he saw the other negro
making for *the cash register he
grabbed a big butcher Knife close at
hand and made a lunge at the negro
with the revolver
There probably would have been a
dead negro had not the tip of the
knife struck on a button on the ne
gro’s coat and glanced off
Flees From Knife.
That was a close enough call lor
the black man. however and with a
veil of terror he darted from the
doorway, leaving all his bravery be-
h.nd him.
The other negro followed suit.
Early morning pedestrians saw one
frightened negro dash up Richmond
street and another up Martin street.
Swerdlin was clone behind, brandish
ing the butcher knife.
Desperation lent speed to'the feet
of the robebrs, however and they
•scaped.

Two Shots Are Fired at Patrolman
McWilliams—Merchant Under
Surveillance—Arrest Likely.
A death threat made several weeks
ago to Policeman J. VV. McWilliams
furnished a clew for the detectives
Thursday in working on the myste
rious attempt to assassinate McWil
liams at his home in East Atlanta just
■ before he came to work early Thurs-
I day morning.
| A business man is said to have ut-
; tered the threat against the officer
He was placed under surveillance as
soon as the story of the incident was
told, and an arrest is expected if
the facts are found to bear out the
suspicions of McWilliams and the
detectives.
Thought to Bear Grudge.
The business man is reported to
have threatened to “get" McWilliams
if it took the rest of his life. An
arrest in which the patrolman partic
ipated is understood to have been the
cause of the remark
The patrolman went to nis back
j porch about midnight. As he leaned
over a basin in washing his face he
found himself looking light into a re
volver thrust through the porch rail
ing.
Fired on Twice.
At the same instant he was deaf
ened by the report of the revolver,
and a bullet whizzed by his ear. He
started back, and the revolver clicked
again, but missed fire.
McWilliams rushed into the house
to get his pistol, and returned just
in time tc see his would-be murderer
jump the fence. Before he could take
aim. the mysterious person disap
peared.
McWilliams told the story of the
attempted murder when lie arrived at
headquarters, and the detective de
partment was put on the case.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE WEARING EYEGLASS.
President Wilson has the monocle habit. He. doesn't go in for the tortoise shell or the gold-rirnmed
kind, but uses just a plain round glass attached to one of those chains that snap up like a window shade.
The President “pulled” this new acquisition on a group of Washington correspondents when they called on
him the other day. His attention was called to a message on his desk, and he wanted to read it. He reached
under his coat and produced the monocle. He didn't screw the glass into his face. He merely held it to his
eye until he read the message. Then, snap, went the chain and the monocle disappeared.

CHATTANOOGA, TENN., De, 11. j
Dr. H. O. Null, county physician, was
acquitted in criminal court upon a
charge of perjury, after the jury had
been out two minutes.
The charges arose from an investi
