AN ALLEGED ASSAULT.
The Serious Charge Made Against Mr.
Bradley.

Last evening Officer Bryant arrested a
man by the name of R. G. Bradley for an
alleged attempted assault on Miss Matte
Gaud, an employee of the Avenue hotel.
Bradley, it is said, lives in the country near
this city, and came to the Avenue hotel
Thursday afternoon aud registered for bed
and breakfast. The next morning he gave
up the room he had occupied and nothing
more was seen of him till late yesterday af-
ternoon. In the meantime he had visited
the wagonyard, where ne had horse. and
several other places, and it was noticed that
he acted strangely. AT about $50 he re-
turned to the Avenue hotel and went up
stairs to the room he had occupied the
night before He spoke to no one about
going TO the room although
the clerk was in the Office and he had regis
tered off that morning. Miss Gaud oc-
cupied the room Just across the hall, and
Bradley, hearing hear, opened his door inst
as the young lady was coming ont of her
room. He beckoned to her to come into
the room, but his only answer was threat
from the young lady that she would report
him at the Office if he molested her further.
He was only a few feet from her, and tax
ing few steps forward he caught her by
the arm and shoulder and forced her into
the room. Miss Gaud screamed for help
and Bradley released her and made his
escape from the hotel. She came down to
the Office very much frightened and re-
ported what had happened. B. +. Wallis,
the proprietor of the hotel, at once found
Officer Bryant and started out to find
Bradley He was found a while later,
identified and taken to the county Jail,
where he will be held to explain his action.
Miss Gaud, the young lady in the case, is
from the country and has been in the en-
ploy of Mr.. Wallis since October last. She
is q modest young woman and Mr.. Wallis

Clam Digging in Maine.

Hundreds of men and boys on the
Maine coast make their living by dig
ging CLANS. They use a heavy rake
with teeth ten inches long, and when
the ebbing tide exposes the little
holes which indicate the presence of
CLAIMS they begin to dig. In winter
great quantities of clans are dug for
bait, the diggers sometimes working
during the night tides and in the
coolest weather. The catch is taken
to little shanty on the shore and
'shucked" with astonishing rapidity
born of long paactice, and is then
ready for market.
Four barrels of clans in the shell
will make one barrel in bulk or in
meat, and that is worth from five to
six dollars. The digger, however,
has to pay sixty cents for his barrel
and forty or fifty cents for a bushel
of salt, so that he realizes only from
four to five dollars for his labor. In
the fall great quantities of CLAIMS are
packed at the canneries along the
coast, and then the clam digger who
is smart and can find a good bed
makes fair wages.-Cor. New York

REPUBLICAN CONVENTIN.
What is Known so far Of the
State Election.
FROM MINNEAPOLIS.
Convention Called to Order at 11:l2
by Mckinley.

MINNEAPOLIS, June 8, 10a. IN -
Doubt still fingers in both the rival
camps. A careful estimate shows
that Blaine aud Harrison are forty
to sixty votes short of enough to
nominate. The Harrison forces
are endeavoring to push matters in
the belief if Blaine cannot get the
nomination on first ballot his
strength will disappear. Blaine men
are playing for delay and seeking to
bring out as many favorite sons as
possible. At conference of Blaine
leaders including Clarkson, Foraker,
teller, Walcott, and Platt lasting un-
til dav light, various states which vii
have candidates were summoned
and tempted to cast their votes for
hem. Iowa was asked to vote
4olidly for Allison, The prospects
re that the Blaine managers will
prevent ballot today. Harrison
men declare Blaine's followers have
20 hope of nom mating bim and arc
merely playing to disentergrate the
Harrison forces in order to bring oui
d dark horse. They talk of forcing
the committee on credentials to move
faster.
MINNEAPOLIS, June 9.-(Conven-
lilo a. M The convention
is slowly assembling. 1t is said on
good authority that the committee
on credentials will be ready to report

said an attempt will be made to re-
lire the commute and have contest
decided on the floor of the conven-
ton in order to get a test vote as to
the strength of the rival candidates.
