Attacked by q hIadman.

CHICAGO, June 4.--,Judge Anthony of
the Supreme Court had 4 narrow escape
from serious injury or perhaps death this
morning The Judge left his residence in
La Sale avenue AT 930 o'clock to come
down to the county building. When he
reached the sidewalk in front of his resi-
dence man suddenly sprang upon him.
The Judge, who is Il large and powerful
man, fought his assailant desperately, but
was in great danger of being throttled. a
bakers wagon came along and the driver
went to the Judges assistance. By their
combined efforts the man was soon over
powered.
The police were summoned and the des-
perate man taken to the Chicago avenue
police station. Here he gave his name as
Andrew Shirley. From his actions the
officers believe him to he insane. The
Judge escaped any bad bruises and came
down to his court room.
