Gosn?il came to Seneca Tues day night with his head cut in seve ral places by the ' impact of brass knacks. Hi's assailant was a negro who attacked the white man In the latter's store*at Courtenay siding Tuesday evening. 'Mr. Gosnell was badly cut about the head, but was able to walk to .Soneca for medical treatment, and to the night policeman here he told of the seemingly" unprovoked attack. .He said the man came into hts store early Tuesday morning and ex plained, when interrogated as to his continued presence, that he was walk j ing tor another party to come. Mr. I Gosnell half suspected ulterior mo i tivcs and made sure as to the loca tion of a weapon of defense, j The negro, lt is evident now, plan-. ' ned to disable the storekeeper and rifle tho money drawer of its con tents. At a time when there were j no customers In the place tho negro j j called for five cents worth of oranges, I I and as Mr. Gosnell reached into a , I barrel for the fruit the negro, wlth ? out warning, struck him ^.near tho ! temple with knucks. The blow felled I the storekeeper, and several more ! blows landed on his head. Mr. Gosnell is a man of unusual agility and by this time succeeded in j roaching his gun. When the man saw the proximity of tho weapon ho fled, but before he disappeared 'Mr. Gos nell fired three shots, none of which apparently took offeot, owing to Mr. Gosnell's nervous condition nt this time. Mr. Gosnell says tho negro who at tempted the robbery is unknown to bli?. He would be able to recognize I him again, but he could not furnish lan accurate description to Policeman Bellette. s The wounds were treated in Sen eca Tuesday night and are not of a serious nature. "Negro Still at Large. . Sheriff Moss, on being notified of tho assault, (.went to the scene to in vestigate, hut nothing definite could he ascertained. A description was secured, however, from parties who had seen the negro in the communi ty, and a reward ls offored for his arrest. The negro fills the following' description: Dark ginger cake color: ago 30 to 35 years; fl feet tall; weighs about lfiO pounds. Wore faded overalls, No'. 10 farm shoes, soft hat. Has protruding upper lip and speaks slowly. Any ono seolng such a negro ls requested to commu nicate with Jas. M. Moss, Sheriff, At, Walhalla.

House Will Be Overthrown Unless the'War Ends in ll) 18 ? An Atlantic Port. Feb. 3.-Opinion that unless the war ends within the year 1918 there will be a revolution which will overthrow the Hohonzol lerns In Germany was expressed by the Rev.

"Tho"people of Germany nie starv ing," said Dr. Daniels, who for three years has been staying In "Westpha lia. "There are few left who are more than 50 years old, all succumb ing to lack of nutrition, while the death rate among the children is frightful. ' I . "President Wilson ls anathema I throughout tho empire, but Hardly j worse than is. tho Emperor, while what is said openly of tho crown prince is not ht to rej>eat. "I believe they will quell this in cipient revolution, but there will bo j another unless the war ends before next year and that ono will be the end of the Hohenzollerns.
