Hundreds die fcvery day. , I saw a torriblo deed last night while pnsgiug in front of a saloon. One of the boy i of the 11th cavalry and oiie poor lad from the 2Utlj regiment got into a drunken brawl. It seemed to he some thing serum, as I noticed they were both angry, and I stopped to see what iva up. After receiving much abuse from the 11th man's tongue, the Stoth punched him on the jaw and knocked Jiiin down. A the 1 Jth man staggered jq his feci ho slipped his hand behind him. An ho did so I cried to the boys to watch him. I thought ho was diving ifter his gun. (When I saw n light was going on, w ith a soldier's curiosity I en tered the joint). Rut to everybody's horror ho whipped out an enormous dagger, and with an oath an; a cat like spring, plunged at the ioor 20th lad. drove Hie dagger through the left side ot the breast, just above the heart, and two inches into the hard mahogany post the man wag leauing against, luick us lightning i wriippeit out an enormous police whistle, w hich some meu on si3' pial or secret duty always have. ( Kvery limn on detached duty is examined, and lfhe is found capable of doing secret service amy, ts given papers ana a bmige, two fine woolen and a civiliau suit 1 will tell you all about it as soon as I finish my story.) 1 blew a Bhrill whistle and at the naino time pulled my gun and yelled I would shoot the first man that luoved. All this time the would-be murderer was trying to withdraw his knite. I had covered him with one gun and the crowd with the other. At the same instant another man in civilian .-dress clapped a pair of handcuff on him and coolly drew his irona and back cd me up, I didn't know what second 1 might get my till, and I tell you it made jne feel good to know 1 had at least one jiiaii 10 ohck me. suuuomv ttie u'ors were burst open and in rushed twenty guards. The doors had been closed when the row happened. The niea in the saloon all this time had kept up a pontiuuous growl, and as the guards rushed in they saw it was their liw chance and with a wild yell rushed at the would-be murderer ' with cries el" t'Lynch him!" "Shoot him!" but the guards drove them back ut the point of the bayonet and soon had the prisoner. When 1 saw ttil was safe i ordered the bugler to blow the ambulance call, ami soon a u ambulance came dashing up. j Vith the help of hosp.tal men I get h.iu j into the anih iiaoce and he wan r.:k n t'.i'J !
