The instrument used in the assault was a heavy board about 18 inches in length, which had been made into a cribtage board. It is understood that the men had 1 been playing cribbage and that the 1 assault is the culmination of a quar rel over the game of cards. At any rate Lewis hit Weston over the head 1 with the board, cutting a gash an inch I and a half long and fracturing the skull. Weston went down and out, ' and was still partly unconscious this 1 morning. His condition is said to 1 be dangerous. Dr. Egginton was 1 called and is doing all that can be done for the injured man. Lewis has been placed In solitary 1 confinement and will probably be ' placed on a diet that will have a ten- 1 dency to lessen his animal nature. Lewis caused the local police force trouble for years and has been a con stant menace to the community un til locked up on the present sentence, i FOR RENT S HOGAN FLATS ?
