VV STEEL CUD SHELL | HOUTS MS Oberlin Farmer Tells Poor Board Authorities Story of At tack on Foreigner tendants at the Almshouse have been ] able to extract piecemeal from Allle Draga. the foreigner found uncon scious by the roadside early Saturday morning.

Mr. Hand shaw drew this, curled his finger about one and held it in such a way as to give the impression of an automatic revolver. He thinks his bluff worked, as the men slunk away.
