the solution of rather unusual murder
mystery, in which it is suspected the de-
sire Of wrOnged woman for revenge was
the motive for inficting torture on the
bapless victim. The man, Andrew Heyl,

Cincinnati, Tuesday afternoon. lie was
in diving condition from bullet wound
in his head. fracture of the skull, due
to II blow, and numerous burns on his
eet and legs, which had evidently been
held over an open fire OF brush and
leaves. Heyl was taken to the city hos
pital. where he died Wednesday morning,
without throwing any light on the crime.
Near the smOldering brush fire was found
HeyPs revolver, from which three shots
had been fired. He boarded with a
family in Reading for several months.
There he met a young woman, to whom
he became engaged. The bans OF their
marriage was announced in the village
church several Sundays ago. Heyl had
arranged to leave c ncinnali and vicinity.
He withdrew over 81 600 from bank in
preparation for his departure. He was
seen by friends Tuesday morning. About
noon that day DIR. Burckhardt saw
young man and woman enter his wood
lot. but thought little of it, as many
people 90 there to gather wild flowers
This couple only attracted his attention
because they seemed to be hurrying
Later in the day he found Heyl. Abou

Assaulted by a Negro.

Mary Hunt, the seventeen-year-old
daughter of u Taylor Hunt, 1928 l
street northwest Washington, related to
The police yesterday the story Of a strug-
gle with a negro near the Massachu-
setts avenue bridge, and opposite Rock
Creek Park, at 3:l5 Yesterday after
noon, after the negro had first rendered
unconscious her boy companion, Allen
Harrison, eighteen years OF age, ol SoO
Nineteenth street northwest.
Miss Hunt stated that in spite OF
threats of Il terrible death made by the
man if she should cry for help, she
screamed in mortal terror as his hngers
we're siukng into her throat. ApPar-
emily frightened by the shouts OF the
girl, the negro disappeared into the
woods.
The cries of Miss Hunt had been
heard by Joseph Zea, and he immedI-
ately rushed to her assistance. Per
ceiyiug the apparently liieless form OF
the youth on The ground, Mr.. Hea first
telephoned for an ambulance aud then
for the police.
Immediately scores Of policemen were
detailed to hunt for the miScreant.
They, aided by large number OF cltl-
cizens, thoroughly searched the woods
around Rock Greek park, but without
success. AS the story spread more
citizens Joined in the search for the
negro, and ugly murmurs were heard
"a to the manner in which justice
would be served if the assailant was
captured. =.
AS related by Miss Hunt, she was sit
ting near the waters edge on the west
side of the Massachusetts, avenue bridge
reading a story aloud to Allen Harrison,
when negro, fully six feet tall, spr'ug
into view, struck down her companion
with stone, and then attacked her.
Telling her that if she made a noise
he would Immediately kill her, the negro
is said BY Miss Hunt to have grasped
her by the throat and forced her away
from the place where young Harrison
was lying. Believing that her compan-
ion was dead, and that she was about to
be killed, Miss Hunt said that she
nevertheless screamed repeatedly, until
the negro's fingers had sunk so deeply
into her throat as TO make utterance
impossible. Her cries had been heard
and had served their purpose Of irghten'
ing away her assailant.
When placed in the ambulance, Allen
Harrison was unconscious, and in that
condition he remained until after he bad
been received al the Garfield Memorial
Hospital. When he was resuscitated
he refused to speak, saying that he was
sleepy. Later in the evening he told OF
negro, six feet tall, who had struck
him down with stones and beat him
ab ,ut thu head until he WAS insenslble.
He SAYS that he became conscious Tor
short time just as the negro was running
toward the woods.
