EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR.
An Illinois Community Stirred Up
by Fathers Action.


DAN VILE, ILL.,. Dec. 14.-The little
city Of Rossville is in commissions over
an extraordinary affair. George Ruth,
a roustabout In the employ of w. j.
Henderson, wealthy citizen of Ross
vile, committed most brutal assault
upon Nellie, the beautiful eighteen
year-old daughter of Henderson.
The girl nearly died Fl ON fright and in
jury and Immediately gave the alarm.
For some unexplained reason, the ia
Their tried to dlssuade Nellie from tell
ing the facts and Ruth was not arrested
until forty-eight hours after commission
OF the crime. Ruth. to the surprise OF
, every one, was acquitted.
Public Indignation was instantly fired.
and has grown until mass meeting OF
the citizens of RosSyil lie was held last
night, in which strong resolutions were
adopted. Henderson is denounced as
an unnatural father, a monster who
refused to prosecute the raviSher of his
daughter 1t is told of him in these
resolutions that OH one occasion he
drove bis daughter home from a
party with horse whip. The reso-
Iutions avowed the exemplary life
of Nellie as a modest, pure
girl, and view with alarm the
return Of Ruth to the com munity. The
unfortunate girl sits at the home OF her
sister, in Rossville, weeping, and re-
fuses to go home. 1t is believed that
Ruth has some hold OH Henderson,
which prevents him from prosecuting.
Ruth remarked that if lie went to the
penitentiary, Henderson would go also.
| Nellie testified at the trial that Ruth
said: "Your father gave me permission
| to do this" The whole community is
angered, and violence is feared. The
women of Rossville met this afternoon
| to pass resolutions.
