YOUNG WOMEN ARE PURSUED IN
 LONELY ROADS ID BAKERv|LLE
Two Occurrences of Kind in the Week-One From Street Railway Stop and the Other From Lowell-Men of Different Appearance in Each Case-Chls Run al Top Speed to Their Homes to Escape Pursuers

Two young women pursued by un- known men, running for their lives for from half mile to mile through the dark to the protection of their homes, is an ugly record of the last week for the roads approaching Ba kerville.
 It was said by Bakerviile people yesterday to make situation that demanded extension of police protec- ton to the community and it's ap- breaches. Ever since the attempted street railway hold.up few months ago. 1t is declared. matters have been getting worse in the locality and the point has been reached where relief is necessary.
 The men who have ran women are both described as young in appear. ance. One, however. is a stocky built fellow and tic other inclined to slen- derness. Their operations were on different roads. Miss Gladys Jones was run from the Bakeryille street car stop. while the pursui, of Miss Rose Walker was on the road from Lowell to Bakerville.
 Both the occurrences were about I:30 in the evening. as the young Ia. dies were going to their homes from their employments. Miss Jones in stepping from the. street car at the Bakerville stop noticed z, man stand. ing near the platform with his hat drawn down over his eyes. She was alarmed by his appearance at once. Particularly so when he moved around the end of the street car. apparently to be out of her sight and that of people on the rear end of the car. She started kurriedly away from the car and gained some little distance before it was well uader way. Then. glancing over her shoulder. she saw that the man vas funning toward her. She immediately broke into a run and did not stop until she reached her home. The man pursued her un- til he came to the outlying houses of Bakerville Miss Jones arrived home exhausted from her run, but was able to gasp that man had followed her. Frank w. Jones. her father ,immedi- ately went out to look for the man, but he had ample time to get out of the way.
 Miss Walker was out of Lowell but a little ways when man jumped from behind a screening bush little way eff the road and started toward her. She at once commenced run ming. The fellow followed her until they came 10 BaSerrille, when he lodged behinl house and disap- peared.
 Miss Jones looked at the man who followed her intently as she - ad from the street car. She noted tnu he wore a light colored hat and that a light, broad sweater collar extended over his coat collar. His coat and trousers were of dark materials. He was of medium height. She is certain that she would be able to identify him should she see him again.
 Under the conditions that exist in the outlying suburbs under county policing, an automobile patrol is al most a necessity at this time. The officers are mostly centered at Low ell, where they have an abundance oi work to take care of. Telephone calls sent in from outside for assistance can only be answered at much disad vantage If an automobile patro were provided there would be [ chance for efficient work. whereas the officers are now compelled in larg, part to trust to luck. The only other way out suggested Is in more officers
