TRIED TO ASSAULT A WOMAN,
Dastardly Attempt Near Union Park ON
Sunday Evening.

a 1hhthtuly htIetlpt Neut Union turk on
Sunday Evening.
An unknown man made a dastartily
attempt to assault Mrs jennie Anson
OF this city, on tho road leading from
Elsmere to Union street, last Sunday
evening. Mrs. Arson, who lives at No.
SO9 French street. had been ON a visit
to her father, John B. McAlister,
at Elsmere, and in coming to Will.
mington in the evening, instead of
boarding a train for the city she con
c!uded to walk to the electric cars on
Union street. She carried small grin.
just us she was passing through the
wood near Union Park a man sprang
out from behind a tree and attempted
TO catch hold Of her. She succeeded
in preventing him from reaching her,
and screamed and ran. Tho man fol-
lowed and again attempted 10 get hold
OF her, but she prevented him from
doing so by swinging around and
striking him in tho face with her
satehel. She knocked his hat off and
ran as fast as she could away from him.
lie was evidently frightened too, and
as soon as he recovered his senses ran
toward Elsmere. That was tho last
Mrs. Arson saw of him. She reached
a street car and came to her homo in
this city, and she is now very i'll from
the shock.
She describes the fiend as being
good'looking young man, about 5 feet 6
inches in height. He wore dark blue
or black overcoat and dark pants, He
had on soft felt hat.
A similar attempt was made on Mra.
Joseph p. Brown near the same place
about five weeks ago, and the farmers
IN the vicinity are determined to put'a
stop to such conduct. If they succeed
in getting hold of miscroant of this
character it will go hard with him.

constitutional Convention.
The coming Constitutional Conven-
tion received a commendablu share of
attention in the editorial columns of
the STATE press, last week, and the sub
ject was treated in manner highly en-
eouraging to the cause of non parti-
san convention. Tho proposition to
make the convention surely non -part-
san by dividing the delegates equally
between the two leading political par
ties finds additional supporters though
it cannot be said that the press of the
State is unanimous in its favor.
The plan has opponents, as well as
friends.
The Milford Herald opposes an equal
division of the delegates. and still adj
heres to its opinion that it is possible
to find three men Of high character and
unquestioned ability, to whom the
balance of power in the convention
may safely be entrusted. 1t opposes
Hon. John Pilling's proposition to
bring the matter before the State con
ventions of the two parties, for the
purpose Of recommending to the conn
ties the nomination Of equally
convention tickets. On this point the
Herald says:
We hope that ION sober second
thought" Mr.. Pilling will come to the
conclusion that New Castle county,
although it may contain great many
more people, more wealth and more
intelligence, is not master of the situa.
tion entirely; and that the two lower
counties may possibly claim. when
the Republican and Democratic con
ventions come to be held in Dover,
that their State conventions. when they
have nominated their respective candi-
dates for Governor, Representative in
Congress, and Presidential electors
will have fulfilled their mission and
have not the least right to intermetldle
with county matters and especially
with tho mode of selecting men for
places who can only be voted for in
their'respective counties
This is exactly the objection that
Every Evening, on the day Mr.. Pill
ling's admirable proposition was
printed, predicted would be made by
hair-splitting politicians who oppose 4
non bipartisan convention. But it is
not vital objection, by any means.
There is no reason in the world why
the State conventions should not make
such recommendation to the counties.
if the delegates there assembled deem
1t wise to do so.
The Milford Chronicle, an Addicl5s
organ, goes further in its opposition to
non-p partisan convention 1t claims
that the issue is "a question Of fran
ing reforms into our Constitution that
can only be trusted to the Republican
party Of Delaware because the Demo
cratic party has refused time and again
to bring about the great changes in
our fundamental laws, which the poo
pie have asked for SO many years, and
because the Republican party has
pledged to make them. - This, how
ever, is mere partisan froth. 1t over
looks the vital principle that the con.
vention is expected 10 make Consti
tuition for the whole people and not for
the Republican party Or any other poll
tical organization.
The Delaware Democrat Of George
town cannot yet SEQ its way clear to
