Barber Attacked
By Robber After
Returning Home
(Continued From Page One)
It is believed, however, there is
a very good chance he may be
arrested since his body must bear
some marks of the struggle which
took place.
After the fight Mr. Joki’s in
juries were treated by a doctor
and he went to a hotel for the
night.
Slugged on Entrance
Mr. Joki went home about 11
o’clock from his shop on First
avenue. Upon arrival there it
was obvious that someone had
been tampering with the door, as
the clasp had been torn oft.
Stepping through the doorway,
he was instantly set upon by
what appeared in the darkness to
be a big, young man and who
unquestionably was active and
strong. The man lashed out and
such was the force of the blow
that Mr. Joki was knocked to
the floor.
Finds Weapon
As he fell Joki’s right hand
came in tontact with a pair of
lin shears and he seized them as
a weapon. He struck at his as
sailant several times with them
but so far as he knows failed to
connect.
Again the intruder dealt a blow

and as Joki went to the floor for
the second time and started
rough-housing him, shouting,
“stop fighting or I’ll kill you!”
Kepi Struggling
They fought in the dark on the
floor for what se.emed hours to
Mr. Joki. Weakened by loss of
blood he was keeping up his re
sistance only by a desperate ef
fort of the will, he says, when he
finally managed to free himself
and dash to the kitchen. There
he seized a butcher knife and
making no secret of the kind of
weapon he had in his possession
he started for his opponent.
But the intruder had enough.
As Joki advanced with the butch
er knife in hand the intruder fled
through the front door.
Goes For Help
As quickly as possible the bar
ber made his way to the home of
neighbors. From there a physi
cian was summoned. His examin
ation disclosed that the intruder
had used more than his fists in
the fight. There were two cuts
on Mr. Joki's head, one of them
quite deep, which it is believed
without question was made by a
knife or some other weapon.The
wounds were dressed at once.
While they are painful and will
require bandages for a few days,
ALASKA ESKIMO SAYS SHE
DOES NOT LIKE U. S.
(By The Associated Press)
DENVER—Mrs. Maude Reiner,
23 years old, of Nome, Alaska,
expressed a great dislike here
for jails and traffic in the United
States.
A native Alaskan, she is held
as a witness against Henry Wag
ner, accused of violating the
Mann Act by transporting her
from Wallace, Idaho, to Tellu
ride, Colo.
“I tell you I do not like the
United States of America,” she
told the newspapermen.
"When this case is over I will
go back to Nome,” she added.
“For one reason they do not
have traffic in Nome. Three
years ago when I first came to
these United States at Seattle, I
almost got myself killed a big
number of times in traffic.
“In Nome they treat automo
biles just like good horses.
“When a man drives a horse he
does not run him all the time real
fast right down the big street of
the town. He does not make
him step so quick he shakes all
over. He is gentle to his horse.”

none is regarded as serious.
Call Police
Chief of Police Einar Thompson
and Night Patrolman Joe Hub
bard were on the scene not long
after the battle had ended. ‘The
place looked like a slaughter-;
house,” said Chief Thompson,!
‘biood was over everything and
furniture was knocked all over
the house.”
A preliminary check indicated
that if robbery was the purpose
of the intruder his invasion had
been in vain. Nothing seemed to
be missing from the house.
The marshal’s office entered the
investigation the following morn
ing. Chief Deputy Marshal John
J. Buckley and Deputy Pat O’
Connor talked with Mr. Joki and
looked over the house for clues.
