 ALBRIGHT ARRESTED
Accused VIII Be Charged With
 Ntg|cCling His Family.
WANT NEGRO; ATTACKED WOMAN
Alleged to Have Attempted Assault in FOreStville-"VetS" Day at Camp Grounds-Trumbull EmplOyes to Have Outing Monday.

Acting on the complaint of the Con- necticut Humane society Deputy Sheriff W. C. Hart this morning took into custody George Albrecht, for whom the police have been look ing for several days. The accused will be brought into court probably this evening to answer to charges of non-support and neglecting his chill dren.
 According to information given Prosecutor M. A. Norton by Miss Mary Ially, the society's agent who inves- tigated the family's condition, AL brecht has not been treating his chill dren properly and the family is in destitute circumstances. The mans wife is a cripple and unable to do anything for the children and it is alleged that they have not been properly fed or cared for.
 The Albrechts lived for a time on the Jordan place in the Scott's Swamp district. Papers for the arrest of the head of the house were issued Sun- day, but when an officer went to the family's abode to serve them, he found that they had left during the day. It was subsequently, learned that they have moved to Canal street and this morning Officer Hart met the accused on the street and placed him under arrest.
 Albrecht protested against the &C., tion of the authorities, claiming that he is doing the best he can to sup port the family. He has been out of work for some time and claimed that he Is making every effort to get employment.
 Officers of the humane society agreed to send Miss Lally here some time before night and she will be the states principal witness. It is the intention of the society to send the children to some state institution, If possible, as it is claimed their pres ent environment endangers their health and habits. Complaints have been made that they have been steal ing from clothes lines and otherwise breaking the law in an effort to get food.
 The case will be heard before Jus tice F. F. Prior.

 The complainant, a Hebrew wom- an, told the police that about ? o'clock this morning a negro broke into her house. When she got up to investigate the cause of the racket the intruder caught her by the throat and attempted to throw her to the floor She managed to wriggle out of his clutches and ran screaming around the room. Her assailant be- came frightened and ran away
 She described the man as being about five feet, eight inches in height but was unable to tell any thing else about him except that he was black and stranger to her.
 One strange darkey was located in the negro district. He was much larger however, than the man de- scribed by the woman, and also had a good alibi, having witnesses to

I heard story about her the other day that
tckled me to death. 1t seems that last win
ter she contracted miserable cold which
settled in her throat, made it sore and al
most took away her voice. Some one reton-
mended that she rub it with baume analge-
cique, but warned her that she must be care
full or it would remove the skin. She turned
in early one evening and her mother pro-
ceeded to apply the cream with such energy
that Caryl cried for mercy saying it burned
so that she knew it would skin her alive.
However, next morning she appeared quite
cured and told her mother that though the
stuff had burned all night, still it had done
no more than redden the skin little and
that she approved Of it highly. A little later
Mrs. Crawford went to put the medicine
away and found that she had given her
daughters throat vigorous application OF
tooth paste.
