ASSAULTED BY A STRANGER.

Charles Newton Of Maiden, Mass, Has q
Close Escape From a Crank's Pistol Shot.
For some time past an unknown man has
been seen at intervals about the grounds OF
James c. Newton of Maiden. Mass. About ten
days ago he was confronted in the green house
by Charles Newton, aged eighteen, who asked
what he was doing there. The stranger
whipped out revolver and threatened to kill
Newton, whereat the latter ran away. Last
Saturday night, while young Newton was cross
ing the back yard "a shot fred at him, the bull
let whistling close by his head He fired two shots
at a man he saw running away, bu. without
apparent effect The police we're called in,
and kept watch until Thursday without result,
when the watch was discontinued. Yesterday
morning young Newton went to the greenhouse
to fix the fires, and had hardly entered when
he was bounced upon by the stranger. who ex-
claimed: "Now have you, and mean to kill
you" The man had revolver in his hand and
tried to point it at Newton's head. Newton
clinched his assailant and fought desperately
in an endeavor to prevent the use Of the revof-
yer. The intruder finally threw young Newton
to the ground, and, pointing the revolver at his
breast, fired. The PROSTATE man threw up his
right arm at the same time. and received the
bullet in that member. The would-be MUIR
derer evidently not knowing where the bullet
had taken effect said: There, If that don
fix you, I'll stay around until do, il it takes
until Christmas" He then made his escape out
the back door, leaving the revolver, a 32-caliber
bulldog, on the floor.
Young Newton says he knows of no reason
why his life should be attempted by any one.
His assailant is described as short and stout,
with full black beard, with the appearance OF
an Italian or Hebrew.

fact went for nothing with the parrot Before

was one of those takers that insist on having

was way up in his business He seemed to fully
and thoroughly realize that he was born and
bought to talk. and now his one purpose in life
was to fulfil his mission.
The old board Of trader is a kind, indulgent
father, but he is also one of the few men in this
world who know when they have enough. Poll

The daughter taught the bird to say and do
many bright things, and among others to
salute her father with "Ah, there How'd you
like the weather today" This. somehow.

tleman: but, nevertheless. he tried to smile

After enduring the pet beast for several
days the indulgent parent tried to coax his
daughter to let him take it down and exhibit it
to the boys on change. Secretly his point was
to lose the parrot en- route But no the dauph-

night with murder in his heart. Boiling into

a New School House Taken as a Sign OF the
Times in Alexandria County.
Some people might say that the picture &C.
companying this article is that Of a church or

ever, very good representation Of the ar
tistic public school building which is being
erected in Alexandria county. on the Falls
Church road. This is only across the Potomac,
but Is 10 a section Of the suburbs which Is not
generally familiar to the average resident Of
Washington. However, Arlington is over
there, and SO ID Fort Myer. Now a railroad is
being built An electric railroad which is de-
signed to connect this city with the historic
spots-Arlington and Mount Vernon. The
rails foc this road are now laid from the Aquc-
duct bridge to Arlington and it is the intention
to have everything in shape to accommo-
date the great rush of visitors to Arlington
when the Grand Army encampment meets
IN this city. With good facilities for travelling
and good modern schools Alexandria county is
looking forward to the future with a great deal
more hope than some years aga. The fact is
looked in the great development that has been
in progress. 1t is believed by those interested
in that locality that the day is already in sight
when the natural advantages and attractions Of
this region will be appreciated. II is pre-
dicted by some that at no very remote time the
two cities OF Washington and Alexandra will
be united by chain of suburban residences
