over-working in pumping thick, kidney

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Oct 25.-There is
much excitement in the city to-day over
a murderous assault upon Miss Ida Wei
mer. which occurred late last night, and
thus far there has been no clew to the as
sailant. Miss Weimer is employed as an
operator in the telephone exchange in this
city and lives in the extreme south part of
town. She is off duty at Sis, and last
night started out at once for her home.
Just before she entered the old college
campus she heard some one behind her,
and, although somewhat alarmed. she con-
tinued homeward. When about half way
through the campus she was struck to the
ground. and a club found near by is the
evidence Of how she was assaulted Miss
Weimer evidently lay in an unconscious
condition for some time. and about an hour
later appeared at the home of Mrs. Harris,
on South Walnut street a quarter Of a mile
away, aEi. knocking at the door, begged
for assistance. though she was unable to
tell her name or give any details A hor-
rible cut on her head was bleeding pro-
fusely and her feet were wet from cross
ing a small branch.
The alarm was at once given to the po-
lice and Miss Weimer was taken to her
home. where she has since been in a criti-
cal condition She talks sometimes of the
assault. but knows no details other than as
here given. So far as known no further
attack was made on her, and as she car
ried no money the police are at loss to
know the cause for the assault She has
been employed at the telephone exchange
for some time. and had always gone home
about the same hour. There could have
been no mistake as to the attack, as an
lice force Is at work on the case. but no
clew OF any Importance has been secured.
