MADE ON THE DAUGHTERS OF L. J. HOGG, IN DALLAS
 COUNTY.
Their Father Was in Attendance Upon the Baptist Conven.- tion at the Time of
 the Assault.

Mr L. J. Hogg, who lives near Holly Springs, in Dallas county, and who was in attendance upon the State Baptist Convention, in session in this city, received a message by courier Saturday to the effect that an assault had been attempted oa the persons of his two daughters early Friday morning at tEeir home, during his absence.
 It seems that the young ladies had been left at home alone Thurs day night they attended a wedding in their neighborhood. accompanied by a friend They returned from the wedding and retired to their apartment. Early Friday morning about 2 o'clock one of the young ladies was awakened by the pres ence of man at her bedside. The young lady screamed. This aroused her sister, who also screamed. Their assailant became alarmed and fled without accomplishing his deyllish purpose. The neighborhood was then aroused and a searching party organized, with the result that shoe- less tracks were discovered leading from the window to their bedroom, which has caused suspicion to be aroused against young man living in that neighborhood. But no ar rests were made pending the return of their father.
 MT. Hogg left yestarday for his home and will, no doubt, cause the arrest of the suspected party im- mediately upon his arrival there.
