NEGRO AS LOVER'S SLAYER

"That's the man. He is the one that shot and killed Myer Ruskin." These startling statements were uttered from the lips of '.Miss Rose Rafflin, pretty youn? Chicago sirl as she stood in the ."bull pen" of the county Jail at Crown Point far the purpose of making the ldentifIca.t!oi o the colored man that shot her fiance, Myer Ruskln. prominent young Indiana Harbor druggist who was shot and killed last July In a highway robbery in West Gary. Her face was pallid, her lips trembled and hr body quivered as she retailed the moonlight night when Ruskin and she left Indiana Harbor for a tide. It was the eventful night of tht-ir life as they planned to be mar-ri--1 shortly. As they stopped the car to turn around on Seventh avenue and Engle-

wood street in West Gary two negroes stepped out from the darkness of the bushes and at the point of guns demanded that Rupkin get out of the machine. f As he did so, he bravely picked up a revolver lying on the seat by his side thinking of nothing but to protect the girl by his side. As he stepped to the street he raised the revolver and fired point blank at the smallest of the two colored men. The bullet struck ita mark, ploughing its way Into the negro's brain and causing instant death . The other negro highwayman (th'; one identified by Miss RaW.in yesterday afternoon) was on the alert however and almost at the same instant opened fire on Rafflin. The shots were fatal and by the time neighbors arrived he was dead. According to Miss Rafflin's story at the time, the negro did not molest her, the only reason that ho did not though was because he was pressed for time and wanted to get away with the pot.

Cooly he leaned over the two bodies. I

made a thorough search and after telling Miss Rafflin to walk ahead with the threat tat he would kill her if she turned around, he escaped in the darkness. His dead pal was never
