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.
