It is not only in Sydney that a razor is used as a handy we.apo[n of attack, writes the N.Z.Herald’s Suva correspondent. Some months ago an Indian was seen wlking down the main road in Suva, when he turned upon one of the two women who were walking with him. He pulled out a.razor and in -aj most mater-of-fact way commenced to cut her nose. She screamed, and a European rushed to her assistance. She was then in a semiconscious condition, but her assailant calmly walked towards the town. Later he w'as sentenced to 18 months’ imprisonment with hard labour.
