A NAN AND HIS WIFE ASSAULTED BY Bur
GLAR.
At the village of West Hartford, VI,
about o'clock " edEesday morning, the 23d,
the house of J. e. Tracy Was entered by some
person. who went into the bedroom in which
Mr.. ana Mrs.. Tracy were sleeping, and com
mitted "A EnIrderOus assault, by striking them
with a heavy weapon on their heads and
faces, iuilicting fearful wounds, which rem
dered ,Eem iusensible for some time The
burglar then toDa the pantaoons of Mr..
Tracy into the pantry and ritlcl the pockets
Of a reTolver and a small amount of money.
He then returned to the bedroom door, with
the probable intention of making further
search, bat 10y this time Mr.. Tracy had par
italy rccorored and, seeing the burglar,
jumped from the led and ran toward him,
upon .c,ine which, the burglar fred twu
shots at Mr.. Tracy. both Of which passed
close to his head and lDd eel ia the wall of
the bedroom As Mr.. Tracy pursued him,
the burglar fired again. but the ball went
wild The burglar then fled out of the
house and before an alarm was heard by the
neishbOrs, he had escaped Mr. Tracy's
loud cries for help soon brought neighbor
to the hpuse. where shocking scene present
ed itself From the CHASTITY wounds on the
victims heads and faces, blood was flowing
profusely, while their night clothing and
bedclothes were completely saturated with
blood. Near by was found a knOtty beech
stick about three feet long and two inches in
diameter, with which the blows had been
given. 1t appears that the burglar effected
an entrance through window in an unOccu-
pied bedroom. He wore nothing on his feet,
and consequently was not easily tracked.
There is thus far no clue 10 the asssilant.
Mr.. Tracy and his wife are in a critical con
diti0n. Their faces are muiillicd almost
beyond recognition. Thrcr ;Hpnlh- ago their
residenc- MAS destroyed 10y Ere and they los,
psarly all their bouscboid furniture.
