JACK The HUGGER
IN MINNEAPOLIS
THREE YOUNG WOMEN ASSAULT
Q ED IN ONE WEEK.
Miss Anna Olson Is the First Victim
Her Assailant Is Frightened
AwaX--Iwo Other Servant Girls Are
Attacked and All Are Injured.

in the vicinity Of Kenwood., In the
past week three servant girls have
been assaulted and more or less Sc
verely injured. The police have a de-
scrip1ion of the man and are trying
to find him.
Miss Anna Olson, a servant girl em-
ployed by Grove A. Grunan, 1912 r.
wing avenue S, was attacked Thursday
night. She was on her way home
about 10 O'Clock, and when she was
within a few feet of her own door the
man came up behind her and threw
his arms about her neck. He placed
one hand over her mouth to prevent
any outcry and quickly threw her to
the ground. He pinned her to the
ground with his knees, keeping his
hand over her mouth so that she could
not scream for help.
The noise of the struggle attracted
the attention of Mrs. e. A. Thayer,
1920 Irving avenue S, in front of
whose home the assault occurred. She
hastily opened the window, and in
He did not make his escape, however,
until Mrs. Thayer was able to get a
good view of him.
Miss Olson went to her home, but
did not report the matter to Mr.. Cru
man until the next morning. when she
appeared with a badly bruised and
discolored eye. The matter was re-
ported to the police by Mrs. Thayer
Thursday night, but as there was no
one at police headquarters who could
be sent out on the case, nothing was
done. The following morning Mr..
Gruman reported the matter and re-
ceived a promise that officers would
be assigned to the case. They arrived
late Sunday afternoon.
+I1@@ Hsr.e.N ,4-x,
other girls have been victims of the
brute. One of these was assaulted
on Penn avenue Friday night and the
other, who is employed as a Servant
by Mrs. S. B. Lovejoy, 1901 Penn ave-
nue. S, on Douglas, near Logan ave-
the brute seemed satisfied when he
had beaten the girl severely.
The police have subscription of the
man and hope to arrest him soon.

TOM SHEVLIN SAYS GOPHERS
ARE FAMOUS IN EAST.
Critics Begin to Recognize That the
Standard of Football in the Big
Nine Closely Approaches That at
Yale or Princeton-Situatio in the
Hast

Thomas Shevlin, Jr., the great end
rush Of the Yale football team, has
just arrived in Minneapolis, and is
spending his holidays here. Shevlin
had Won an enviable reputation in
college athletics in the east. Last
year he was end on the football team,
and. also on the baseball and track
teams. This year he was again on
the football eleven, and was consid-
cred one of the best ends in the coun-
try. In speaking of football to-day,
Shevlin said:
The west has evidently advanced
materially in the last few years. I
have not seen any western teams play
in championship games for many
years, but the. impression is growing
that the standard of football in the
territory bounded by the limits of the
Big Nine conference is closely APP

iams developed a, great team this
year. and every one in the east APP
preciates the fact. I have seen most
Of the Minnesota men play and know
something Of what they can do. Such
men as Schacht, Harris and Strathern
would be a credit to any team.
In regard to the situation in the
east, do not know that there is
anything to say. Princeton beat us,
and. that is all there is to it. There
We're many strong teams this year
outside of the four or five generally
considered as leaders. Dartmouth,
tho did not see them play, was un-
doubtedly very strong. Columbia is
always good, but this year I think
they were better than they have been
for some time
Shevlin was reticent in discussing
the football situation in detail, and
would not give any comments upon
the Yale-Princeton game. This spring
he intends devoting his attention to
the hammer throw, and will probably
not try for the baseball team. He al
ready holds the worlds record for
the twelve-pound hammer throw, and
it is learned from acquaintances that
Mike Murphy, the famous Yale trainer
thinks him capable of doing great
work with the sixteen-pound weight
Shevlin looks strong and hearty, and

that football is injurious to health

INTRODUCED Her
AS MRS. DEBROLLS.
MORE INFORNIATION REGARDING
CARLIsLE,s .VEILED, LADY,
She Accompanied Him When He
Bought Furniture and Seems to
Have Been the Brains of the Com
binationseparated From Her, He
Made Mistakes.

Evidence has been secured which
indicates that the mysterious yelled
woman in the Carlisle case was the.
real brains of the concern known as
the School Of Occult Science" by
means of which it is charged that
Carlisle succeeded in swindiing Miss
Clarice Heebner out of $3.50. While
she was with Carlisle he seemed to
make no mistakes, but as soon as he.
was out Of her sight, he made several;
blunders which finally. resulted in his
being arrested.
The woman first appeared in Min
neapolis with Carlisle, SO far as can be
learned, Sept. 25 when they registered
at the West hotel as j. j. Carlisle and
wife of New York. Her next appear
ance was at the New England furniture
store Sept. 2S,, when, With Carlisle, who
introduced himself as j. j. Debrolls,
proprietor of a correspondence school
Of science at 521 Bank of Minneapolis
building, and the woman as Mrs. J. j.
Debrolls, his wife. She helped him
select the furniture for his office. She
again called at the same store on Oct.
! and selected bill of furniture,
amounting to SIT, which included
complete furniture for small fiat.
She told the salesman that Mr.. De-
brolls would call and make pay
ment. upon the bill and order the de-.
livery but he failed to call and the
sale was not com pleted.
Thought to Be in Hiding.
From the time that she called at
the store to buy the household furni-
ture she was not seen, so, far as has
been learned, until Carlisle was
brought back to Minneapolis and
lodged in Jail. She then called upon
him several times but as soon as she
began to be talked about, her visits
ceased and she has evidently betaken
herself to cover.
just how far she was connected
with Carlisle's schemes is unknown,
but the fact that she knew that he was
masquerading under the assumed
name of Debrolls and adopted that
name herself, is taken as significant
Whether she knew of his attentions to
Miss Hinl1le is not known, but the fact
that she called upon him imme diately
after his arrest seems to show that
she was deeply interested in, him.
Report has had it that the ''veiled
woman was loose character that
Carlisle had picked up after arriving
in the city, but Orville Lord, the sales
man who waited upon Mr.. and Mrs
Debrolls, says that she was a genteel
ladylike person and that she bore none
of the marks of an abandoned char
acter.

and was astounded to discover that the
Sherman was miles out Of her course.
