WOMEN
BRUTALLY
Beaten

The police are endeavoring to locate
and apprehend a scoundrel who, being
refused notice by women whom he ac-
costs upon the public highways. brutally
assaults them.
Matte Davis of Glenham street and
Kate Pickles Of Point street were on
North Main street, near Market square.
at o'clock last evening. when they OBJ
served that they were being followed by
a man.
They had proceeded as far as 230
North Main. when he stepped close
up TO and accosted them in a most in
sulting manner.
One of them told him that he was not
wanted and that his attentions were far
from being welcome. Unless he left and
immedia tely an officer would be called.
Without any further provocation the
fellow struck Miss Davis with such force
that tooth was driven through her lip:
then he ran away
complaint was made 10 Sergt Doe
of the central station and an accurate
description was given OF the man and
his apparel.
The police think that they can bag
the man. who no doubt is the one who
made similar assault upon woman on
North Main street Saturday night.

TO Defend
JUDGE
SWAYNE

Washington, Jan. "a great deal OF in
terest has been created here by the an
nouncement ~that Representative f. D.
Crumpacker OF Indiana will oppose the
! impeachment proceedings directed against
Judge Charles Swayne OF the North dis
trtct OF Florida. The Indiana man will
defend Judge Swayne in the house, as
he takes the position that there is alb
solutely no evidence justifying impeach-
ment. and he makes the prediction with
out reservation that swsyne will not be
impeached.
During the congressional recress Mr..
Crumpacker devoted a great deal OF time
10 studying the papers In the case. He
says the Florida Judge has been i'm the
habit of holding court about l50 DAYS i'm
each year, and of this time or the average
Judge Swayne has spent 30 days outside
OF his Federal Jurisdiction and 60 days i'm
his own district.
lie says that Judge Swayne has never
been severely criticised for work done out
side OF his district, and he argues that
II he were really a corrupt and tyrannical
Judge. as claimed by those responsible
for the present proceedings, ne certainly
wAuld have been subjected 60 criticism
In states where he has held court the
better part OF the time since he has been
on the bench.
Mr.. Crumpacker argues that Judge
Swayne cannot be impeached on the ex-
pense account charge for the reason that
II has been shown that he merely fol-
lowed what appears to be an almost uni
versal custom on the part OF Federal
Judges
In connection with Mr. Crumpacker's
statement of the length OF time spent
by Judge Swayne outside his judicial
district. the fact has come to light that
after the Democratic party obtained con-
troll or the executive and legislative bust
ness of the government in 1892 the fight
of Florida politicians against Judge
Swayne was renewed Indirectly. Being
unable 10 affect his status on the bench
those who had fought the confirmation
or his nomination so vigorously few
years before devoted themselves to an
effort 10 cripple his authority, and, as
a result, secured the passage OF a bill
taking from his district a large number
of counties and transferring them 10 an
other judicial district. In consequence OF
this. the business before Judge Swayne's
court was materially curtailed. and. hav-
ing so much less TO do than formerly
he was frequently called upon to perform
service In other judicial districts This
accounts mainly for his absence In other
states for the average yearly period men
toned by Mr.. Crumpscker and tends 10
explain the charge against him concern
ing absenteeism.

Y.M. C. A. Hall Yestsrdy Afternoon.

Rev. w. w. Bustard, formerly captain
Of the Brown university baseball team
and now pastor Of the Dudley Street Rap

20 the men at the Y. NJ. c. A., yesterday.
He chose as his text: Hold fast to
that which Is good" He said in part
1T may be some sailor holding fast TO
hope IL may be some country boy who
came TO the city TO seek his fortune
holding fast 10 his mothers prayers. II
may he some business man holding fast TO
honest principles.
But. first OF all. hold fast tn a good
conscience. would rather have the good
conscience OF man that has been marked
and battle-scarred than the innocent con-
science Of the child.
Secondly hold fast 20 a good char
actef~ Something you have 20 lose. but
you don't have to lose your character
unless you want to- Character Is the
capital II will pass currency In this or
any other world The test of character
Is life and the test OF life r. living. Dol
lars can be counterfeited. but character
cannot be counterfete6.
Another thing we should have = grip
on Is the Bible That book IL God s. words,
and in reveals to men Gods will Love
the Bible. Read H. believe IN It's pre-
cepts The Bible is the founds ton Of
Christian civilization TO-DAY.
And there is one other thing I want
YOU To hold fast to- Hold fast 90 Jesus

ders above other civilizations Many a

be made TO aid in supplying them.
Now that 30 churches have actually
canvassed parishes what can we say has
been Accomplishment
First, our task has been defined To
work their fields the churches must know
them. The other evening committees,
considering possible union. asked about
two neighborhoods; in one case the score
tary turned to his books and instantly
answered In the other none can more
than guess. because that section has not
yet been canvassed.

a boarding house population. which means
that the churches must there adapt their
methods.

ready recruits. the canvass has at least
defined the task OF each church, for IL

them up. II they cannot be won what
chance for Its growth Is there. except
natural increase of it's own families or
drawing away from other churches,
Secondly, n shows how 20 perform the
task. Instead OF % pastors calling on

work it? Not unless they really want 10
reach people. Not unless they feel obliga-
tion 10 the entire community Not unless
the membership Itself so appreciates its

message which the church has TO offer

that everyone that r. athIrst will come

attractive in the hat to match exactly,
and il any color is needed a deeper
shade is used in the trimmings or in
the facing of the hat brim.
Velvet hats are worn and will be
worn until late in the spring, but lace,
tulle or maline is smarter, and there
are some hats that are now made in
the taffeta and tulle or satin and tulle
that are most charmingly effective,
very dainty and soft in appearance and
have most artistic coloring. In this
style of hat as in no other must the
profile view be most carefully looked
after. So often a hat that looks we'll
in front and at the back is unbecoming
to either the left or the right side of
the face, and under such circumstances
it should not for moment be consid-
cred, but instead one should be chosen

as the color itself. And, after all, what
is more becoming than a becoming

may be remembered that theater
hat or any picture hat intended to be
worn only with an elaborate style of
dress can be rather larger and a little
more extreme than any other style in
