Falls Breaks Leg and Ne Is Caphred-.-
Screams Of Young Woman Save Her.

Milford Mass, Aug. "A man who
gave the name of Samuel Lewis WAS
locked up in the Jail at Iiolliston dur
ing the night, on the charge OF breaking
and entering the residence of Willard
CozZens. which is situated on the road
between MilfoId and Holliston and Oh
the charge of having assaulted Il
daughter of Mr.. Cozze,s
The man has a broken leg which, il
is claimed, he received by jumping
from second-story window of the
Cozzers house, after he had been
frightened away by the screams of the
young woman.
Within the past several months sew
eral houses have been entered in this
district followed by mysterious at
tempts TO choke female occupants of
the house and the assaults were gener-
ally ascribed to some person with an
insane temperament.
Miss CozZens says that she was
awakened during the night by 4
strange man bending over her bed and
trying to strangle her. The young
woman screamed and the man unloos-
ened his grasp Immediately.
At that moment the girls father
| rushed into the room armed with a
| revolver. Finding no opportunity to es-
cape by the stairway the intruder
| jumped through the nearest window.
CozZcns hurried out doors and found
man lying on the ground beneath the
| window suffering from n fractured leg.
He summoned assistance and the
| stranger was placed in the lookup at
] Hollinston.
The Milford officers went to Hollis
| ton to question the arrested man. On
| account of his condition it was regard
ed as improbable that ne would be ar
| ranged i'll court, today.
During the day Lewis was removed
from the lookup at Hollistor and taken
| to the South Framiusham hospital ,o-
treatment. At the same time Arthur
st. George Hart of HollistoIi asked for
| a warrant for Lewis in the Framing
ham district court on a charge Of
breaking. entering and assault.
Lewis is negro. He used Il ladder
to gain access to Miss Cozzens cham

was found that both bones of the right

that power is so often and so success

these aims is the establishment of
