NO CLUE TO FIEND Continued from pnge 1 before she was overcome and tic wea pon was dashed to tie (tour, l.t.t n..t until the blade had n ached its mark, as is evident from ihe slight sC'ins of blood notieablt in il.e room, land ing her hands secure iy over hi r lt st with a piece of rope, and iih.i hand over her mouth to mtilh'c her cry, the inmidir proceeded to cany out Lis dastaiiilv iim ntions. In the isi rustle, a- her hands were i b.ing Lemuel, ihe aged lady faintid away , but she thinks a gag of sone kind was f.imd in h r mouth, ft r when siie rccoveree! her m use s, a heavy rope was about her neck ami hr hands were both M-curcly bound across her body. The house was qui; i and the fiend had departed threugh the win dow which i.e h:d e Mere el a few m inutt s previous. Whh cctbiderable ' difliculiv, Mrs. Schmidt made her way to a window in an effort to see which way iie had proceeded, but the dark ness had enveloped him and not a sign of a clue to his identity remained with the exceptions of a few brown hairs, two pieces of rope and the medium size foot prints left in the soft clay about the house. Working herself free from the bounds, she hobbled across the alley to the home of her martst neighbor, li. C. Marquardt where she gave a brief account of the horrifying crime which soon had the town stirred up to the highest pitch of excitement. On the arrival of the sheriffs, the de puty was set to work on the wires, notifying every town in the vicinity tif the assault and giving the authori ties a faint description of the man with dark brown hair a seratche d face. The sheriff secured all the informa tion and cbus possible from the Schmidt residence, anel it was ele cided to send for the Heat rice blood hounds. They were immediately dis patched to Lincoln by rail, w here they were met by an automobile and rushed to the little village. The deigs arrived there yesterday afternoon, but by that tine the scent had eudently van ished as the keen scent of the ani mals proved to no avail. They picked up short trails which they followed for a few yards, and then as if the fugi tive had evaporated the trail was lost entirely, anel could not be again found in the vicinity, making it appear as though the man hael maelc his escape in some vehicle. At no time did the dogs evidence their usual signs when on a hot trail ad they were soon taken off the job. During the day parties of farmers and resident!) of the little town formed posses and scoured the country for miles, but the mystery surrrounding the affair remains as deep as ever. The sheriff and party went by auto mobile to Dunbar and early this morn ing to Nebraska City, returning be fore daylight, but their trip was fruit less. Yesterday there were as many as twenty automobiles from the m-igl boring territory, each containing from the neighboring territory, each con taining from two to six men, which covered every foot of road within ten or twenty milts of the place. Every stranger that was met with was ques tioned and carefully examined, but no arrests were made anel no one seems to have left the village which is being turneel upside down in an effort to locate the criminal. The authorities fee-1 certain that the crime was committed by someone acqauintcd with the house and the neighborhood. It was clearly a well planned attack. It was known that at the hour of two, the woman would be sleeping nwst soundly anel would not hear him cnetcring. By the rope he carried shows that the minute tic tails of the work were perfectly laid out. 15y not uttering a sound, net speaking a word or even coughing scaped any possibility of his voice being rcceignizcd. The rope has not been identified and it is doubtful if it ever will be, as it was a piece of slightly used, meelium size brown rope, which is as common as can be. The lair may have a slight clue, but it is a small matter upon which to estab lish an identification. The shocking crime set the peace ful little country town wild with in dignation and excitement and if the fiend is captured great care will have to be taken to guard him against violence. The woman's conelition to day is greatly improved and is it not thought her experience will have any serious effects. It seems certain that there was but one person engaged in the work as the foot prints show but one se't of tracks. At time of going to press no new devempments have been made and the criminal is still at large. Advertised Letter List.
