SLAVE TARIFFIER
IN NASHVILLE
YOUNG GIRLS OF LIKELY AP-
PEARANcE HAUNDED.
One Approached Recently on Public
Thorouahfare Deed Committed
in Midday-Glrl Frightened
Almost Into Spasms-speedy
Retreat to safety-In-
truder Departs.

Friday of last week young lady
of this city was accosted on the high
way in midday by woman who was
stranger to her. She approached
the young lady and asked her many
do you live? Where do you work?
What do you do? Where. are you go
ing?" and other questions Of like
nature She finally wound up by tell.
questions, among them were ;''Where
ing her she would like to have her
go home with her as she wanted a
nice looking girl at her house, and
that she would not have to work SO
hard.
This girl was frightened almost
into a spasm She had no answer
that she could give the intruder, but
she understood that it was best for
her to get out of the presence of thai
person as quickly as possible. Sc
without exchanging any words she
left the woman standing in the street
with her eyes fixed on a slender
figure speeding down the street as
rapidly as her feet could carry heI
without running. The first impulse
that seized this young lady when she
realized Just what kind of demons
presence she was in was to scream
to the top of her voice, but the whole
affair was so sudden and unexpected
that she found herself paralized. She
wanted to give alarm but her voice
failed her; and there was nothing II
do but to get out of the way.
When seen by a Globe representa-
tive the young lady was asked wha
kind of looking woman it was whC
approached her and if she secured
her name. She said "No, | did moi
ask her anything and / was so dumb
founded that am not certain | coulC
give you an intelligent description o,
her appearance"
Nothing could be learned that would
serve as an Identity Of this woman
who attempted to enslave an limo
cent girl. The affair happened in
midday and on one of the public thor
oughfares of Nashville. It has been
the talk of the town where it has be-
come known, and mothers realize the
great danger their daughters are in
when on the public streets. This
case shows that there is no select
time for the slave trafficers, and that
they are as bold as lions and as goats
rowing the streets in sleeps cloth.
ing. No girl is secure from an at.
tack from one of these marauders
They may be expected anywhere, and
parents will have to always be on the
alert to protect their girls, and boys
as well, for these demons do not stop
at leading girls astray, but actually
decoy young boys of tender years to
their houses OF infamy.
