He Is an Italian barber. named Michael

rao for examination on Monday next.
Farrao Is charged with attempted crimi-
nal assault.
Justice HendricksOn believes that,
despite the reluctance OF women to ap-

Of testimony going to prove Farrao's
guilt
Young women have been reporting for
the past six weeks that they have been
waylaid at night by man who wore
his coat collar turned up and had a
SLOUGH hat pulled low down over his
eyes. and who attempted to hug and kiss
them.

tsctiyes. but Jack the Hugger" failed

As soon, however. as vigilance was
relaxed the hugger again appeared. Soon
