JACK THE RIPPER.

A Waterbury Woman Pursued by a
 Mysterious Man With n Big Knife.
 Residents of the lower end of the Abrigador are in state of mind over second edition of Jack the ripper, who has appeared in that neighborhood. Christmas night woman who lives on Stone street was walking along Baldwin street near Simonsville when a man armed with big knife jumped up from the roadside and followed her. She screamed and ran, attracting the atten- ton of a gentleman who was in the neighborhood. The fellow turned when he saw he was discovered and ran like a deer He was pursued but made his escape.
 Who the fellow is no one knows. From the fact that he appeared more anxious to frighten the woman than to harm her, many believe that it was only bad bey of the neighbOrhOOd out on a | lark. Others say that an insane man has been seen upon Baldwin street several times lately. A week or two ago mysterious stranger armed with a whisk broom in one hand and a big knife in the other stopped two men near the Buckle shop on South Main street and wanted to talk religion. After speaking to them a few minutes he went toward Naugatuck. They thought nothing of the affair at the time, but the presence of the ripper" in SimOnsville leads them to believe that the mysterious man they met is the cause of all the trouble and dread.

He had not the least idea how the robbery was committed, as not a window had been touched, and all the doors were closed as usual. The list of jewelry lost consisted of three diamond rings,a fine pearl ring,a diamond brooch, an entire set of pearls and diamonds set in onyx. a box of miscellaneous jewels and an oriental necklace.
