ATTACKS MADE ON
 WOMEN AND GIRLS

Berlin, February 12.-A series of six attacks upon women and girls has set the southeastern and eastern districts of Berlin in state of panic Three women were attacked Tuesday even ing by man who used sharp instru- ment, believed to be large awl, wounding them on the lower portions of tn cir bodies One of his Victoms bled to death and the others were badly wounded. These attacks were followed Thursday by two similar assaults on girls, one of whom was severely, and other only slightly injured. This aft ernoon, in the vicinity of Lichtenberg. another girl was attacked In the same manner, but she warded off the weapon with her hand which was severely cut. Her cries of alarm brought an excited crowd, members of which, presuming that the criminal had taken refuge In a neighboring house. searched 1t from cellar to roof. Their efforts to find the man were unsuccessful, however.
 Late this evening, armed youth about 20 years old. was taken into custody in the neighborhood where the last assault occurred. Two of the vic- tims of the stabber say they recog- nized him as tn cir assailant and he was detained and will be confronted by the other women tomorrow.

It went against the grain for the Ath- letc club to defeat her old friend Auburn last night, so the boys did it quickly and in a friendly manner. Far be it from Woodruff, Ware and Streit to handle their old college roughly, but they scored 5l while Auburn made 20.
 The Auburn boys did put up game fight Parker, Gordy and Major get ting three goals each, while searbrough, Locke and Hall, the guards, made Wood ruff and Thomas hustle to make their shots.
 But the way the locals did put the ball in the basket was something great. Woodruff made half dozen long shots, while Thomas bounced around under IT. basket, and threw them whether or no Ware made several very difficult baskets while Hlty started the fireworks with a shot from the middle of the field. Streit did some good work getting the bail out
 In the first half both teams had diff ficulty finding the basket In both halves Auburn kept even with the club for the first five minutes, but had to fall behind the pace after that

Japanese Relations.

'I begin, in speaking of Japanese rela- uons. with the remarkable success of Commodore Perry's mission which was sent to Japan some half century ago in order to open and introduce into the com munity of nations the country which was the only terra incognito. Not speaking of the great debt of gratitude Japan owes to the United States for her friendly in- troduction into international community, 1t is worthy fact that the American government has been particularly careful in the selection of its representatives in Japan in order to accomplish what has been left for them to do to Perrys mis- sion
 Tt was through the friendly attitude taken by the American representatives that the American people are deeply en- deared to ours and we want to recipro- cate what has been done for us We have never had any idea for a moment of dispeasng your people, much less of wag- ing war against you
