A YOUNG LADY'S PERIL.

Last Wednesday morning, at 2 o'clock,
a daughter Of J. X. Edwards, an employe
in the United States Senate, was awaken
ed at her fathers dwelling on the Ham
ilton road, about mile and half from
Uniontown, by a brutal looking negro in
her room. Her fright so oyercame ber
that she could not make an alarm, but
soon recovering herself, she asked him
what he wanted, fearing to alarm the
house, as he might XII her with one cut
of the razor he held in his hand He
stepped back few feet and took seat
on the foot of the bed. She asked him if
ho wanted her money, and stepping from
the bed TO the bureau drawer, took from
it her purse and handed him two Treas
ury notes, stating it was all she had and
telling him to 90. He took the money
from her and made a movement as if to
catch hold of her. when she summoned
all the courage she could and suddenly
rushed out into the room occupied by her
parents, giving q scream and falling
senseless to the floor This awakened
her father and mother who were quickly
by her side, but it was several seconds be-
fo e she could make them understand the
situation. Her father hastened down
Stairs and struck light, when he found
the side window of the hall opened, and
pair of old shoes which the negro had
left near the same when he entered the
house, but the villain had fled, taking
with him the two notes, one dollar and
a two dollar bill, which the young lady
had given him. Mr. Edwards bad been
in the habit Of closing the house himself.
but somehow on that night he had mad
vertently left the shutters to this window
open, and nothing was easier than O
raise the window as the negro did. He
lighted small coal-oil lamp, which he
took up stairs with him, and had in the
room of the young lady. In passing the
daughter in the hall, when he escaped by
her, the edge of bis razor came in con
tact with her hand, cutting it slightly and
causing it to bleed some The parents
did not see the intruder at all, and the
girl is not clear about bis description, on
ly that he was meanly dressed like a
tramp. very black, with fiat nose, and
very brutal looking. The parents kept
the matter secret to all except the police,
in order that the william might be caught
"a great mistake, Of course, as timely
publication would have put people on the

Between five and six thousand persons
have suffered for food, but no case of

two children have died from the effects
of over eating when food was furnished
them after their long fast. Liberal
assistance has been furnished from
