Story

JERSEY CITY, N. j., December c.
Peter Schuman, an old-fashloned German,
with his wife, three daughters and two
sons, live in little cottage about mile
from Secancus, on the Hackensack Road.
Schuman keeps half dozen cows which
are MIXED by his daughters. Close by is
the historic Smith farm, around which SO
many revolutionary tales have been WOW
en-. The old farmhouse stands on
the edge OF a thick woods, covering about
thirty acres, a tavorite resort for sports
men. Yesterday afternoon Annie, the
youngest daughter Of the Schuman family,
a bright little girl twelve years old, went
out In search Of COW, which had strayed
away, and followed trail leading to the
heart of the woods. A party Of sports
men were seated on circle Of stumps
eating lunch when they were startled by
THE CRY OF "MURDER!"
which seemed to proceed from thicket
few hundred feet away. George Hepner,
of Union Hill, jumped up and crept TO
to the bushes. Pushing the underbrush
aside, he saw burly negro dragging the
girl toward the thicket. Hepner called
on the negro TO desist, which the fellow
did, and made dash for the road. Hep
ner fired both barrels loaded with buck
slot after him, but the negro was out OF
sight before the rest OF the party, who
came up, had chance to give him the
benefit of their charges.
The girl was picked up unconscious
from the spot where she had been drop
ped, and carried home. On the way she
became hysterical and appeared to be in
constant dread of the negro's return, only
recovering her composure when she saw
her mother. She said that when in the
middle Of the woods she saw the negro
lying on the ground, as If asleep. She
hurried by, when the fellow got up and
called upon her TO stop. This only made
her run the faster, but the negro soon laid
his hands upon per shoulders She strug-
gled TO get away, but

clapped his hand across her mouth. Half
choked, she still tried TO get away and
kicked him with her heavily soled shoes.
He then caught her about the waist and
tried TO carry her to the thick bushes, but
as he had taken his hand from her mouth
she screamed
Hepner and his friends organized them
selves into searching band and secured

Lss, Sunday night was paradox in our ex-

electric light and boom of movement that
suggested merriment The theatres were
pouring out crowds ON the broad banuuetts
already lined. In the morning the church
es poured out equally well, for tins is the
most religious city in the country, aud the
churches according to statistics far better
attended than elsewhere. We took long
rest at the Hotel Royal, finely furnished
place, which has long lain fallow, 80 to

the city park came into view, or at least a

the main building looming up in all its
grandeur. 1t stood out in stereoscopic
sharpr ess against the blue and golden sky,
and did not seem to be dwarfed at all by
the buildings near by, almost as imposing
and imperial. A stranger with harsh
voice, who had evidently been s.mpling
