NEGRO In Buxton Almost Succeeds IN
His Purpose.

Buxton.-James A. Watkins.
colored man, chased his young wife
eleven long blocks through the town
of Buxton at night In an effort 10
take her life. Terror Of death gave
6eetness to the feet of the screaming
woman, though Watkins several times
caught up with her and used Keen
bladed razor with effect, cutting great
gahes, inflicting painful and serious
| wounds about the woman's breast ana
upon her arm and hand. The woman
fought her assailant off again ana
again, and ran on, screaming for heip.
Seeing the moving light OF the
Waterman in the company store ana
almost dying, the woman pounded
frantically at the locked door anu
pleaded loudly for assistance. Ihe
Waterman opened the big door Just
in time to admit the bleeding form
and close 1t in the face of the man
who sought to complete his murderous
intent. :,
The frantic negro wildly attacked
the now bolted door in his effort 10
get at the woman, crying out Tor her
death in his frenzy. He was soon
quieted and overpowered by the GU
Zens, who awakened by the screams
of the woman, had left their beds
and followed to the company store;
The man was held until officers could

fright and loss of blood, has been ~
ing in a precarious condition since
the assault and cannot give any rea-
son an to the cause Of the trouble'
The man seems crazy and refuses to
talk. The wounded woman was

alleges, out Of $3.50. Diffenbaugh was
persuaded to allow the medium to

necessary, however, that the money
be placed in the bag by the professor
himself, who would then return the
famous bag to Mr.. Diffenbaugh. This
was done and in short time the bag
came back to Mr.. Diffenbaugh with
the instruction not to open until Sun
day afternoon at o'clock or the
