SLASHED BY TWO FIENDS.
A Wealthy Widow Murderously
Assaulted by Robbers.

READING, Pa, Oct. 25.-Early this
morning two masked men entered the
residence of Mrs. Amanda Doebler, a
wealthy widow, residing on the out
skirts of Lebanon, and demanded her
money. She refused, when they set
upon her with knife and brutally
stabbed her in ten places on her head,
besides cutting her body and arms.
The woman resisted and terrible fight
ensued, until finally. scared by her
screams, the men dashed out of the win
dow and escaped without getting her
cash. The struggle with her assailants
took place in Mrs. DUebler's sleeping
room and this had the appearance of a
regular slaughtering pen. The walls
were covered with blood, the carpet
torn up and the bed and floor red with
blood. The woman is now in a critical
condition and not expected to live many
hours. The assailants have not yet
been arrested.

Probably one of the most interesting
Of all the railroad presidents who have
their Offices in New York is Mr.. Samuel
Sloan, president of the Delaware. Lacka-

people know that he is an Irisbman. He
was born at Lisburn, near Belfast, In
1917. Coming to America when young,
he received good education ut Column
bia Grammar school in New York, and
was afterwards merchant, supervisor
and state senator. He was president Of
the Hudson River railroad from 1855 to
1862, and also acted ms commissioner Of
the trunk lines. He was elected presi-
dent Of the Delaware, Lackawana and
Western in 1867, and is now president
of dozen smaller roads and director in
tho Western Union Telegraph company.
In his business habits Mr.. Sloan is
clockwork itself. He opens, reads and
answers all of the official and personal
letters that come TO his Office never en-

Of flowers and nearly every day brings

Hudson, about fifty miles above New
York, and makes the trip to and from
the city every day, getting to his Office
at 10 a. IN. and leaving at 2:30 p. IN.
Mr.. Sloan has the reputation of being
Grabbed and hard TO approach. On the
contrary, he is the kindest of men If one
only has sufficient sense not to attempt
TO talk TO him when he is overwhelmed
with business matters. All his clerks
are very fond of their aged chief.
