An AWFUL CRIME
Committed on Mrs. WaddeIl
Yesterday.
WITH A KNIFE IN HAND
Negro Man Assaulted Woman
While Alone.

Mrs WaddeI, white woman, was as
saulted by a negro at her home. 1852 st.
Francis avenue about Il O'Clock last
night. Nr. WaGdeu was away from home
end his wife was asleep on the bed in her
room and woke up for some reason, which
she does not know herself and found a ne
gro standing over her. She screamed and
the negro hit her with some blunt instru-
ment ana then drew a knife on her. She
was forced to submit to the awful deed
while the negro stin had the knife IN his
hand, threatening TO kill her If she moved.
After the deed was committed the negro
escaped. Mrs. Waddeu could not give
a very good description Of the man who
assaulted her. The woman was found
soon after the deed was done and the
officers notified and are now in hot pur-
suit and it was expected that the man
viii be captured before morning.
Mrs. WaddeI is at her home in very
serious condition. Her head is bruised
by the use of the weapon in the negro's
hand and she is also badly bruised about
the body. Immediately after the alarm
was given a doctor was called and dress
ed her wounds. Mr.. Waddel was at an
ODD Fellows meeting down town and
found his wife when he got home.
