THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: APRIL 4, 1920.
FATHER OF GIRL
MAN ATTACKED
TAKES HER HOME
Maid tn Bluffs Home Cannot
Determine Whether or Not
Her Assailant Was White
or Colored.
Notified by telephone of the at
tempted assault against his 18-year-old
daughter, Mildred, in Council
Bluffs Friday night, Charles John
ion, farmer, living near Loveland,
la., arrived early yesterday and took
her home.
Miss Johnson, who has been a
maid in the home of Mrs. George
Purchase, 912 Military avenue,
, Council Bluffs, for several days, was
attacked by a man about 9 o'clock
last 'night in front of the old Gen.
G. M. Dodge residence on Third
treet
Council Bluffs police are working
on the case. They have a fair de
scription of the girl's assailant r
Miss Johnson had been previously
employed in the Lucius Pryor home,
130 Fairview avenue, and was on
her way to that place to obtain
some mail when the assault oc
curred. Attempts to Choke Her.
The man seized her, she said, and
attempted to choke her into sub
mission. She fought him off with
her fists until he tripped her and
she fell to the ground. A desperate
struggle followed, . in which the
girl's glasses were broken, cloth
ing torn and; she sustained many,
bruises. She says she struck him
several times in the face and finally
succeeded in breaking away from
him. She ran screaming to the
Pryor home, a block away, and
fainted when they opened the door
for her. '
. Gave No Description.
Miss Johnson was unable to give
oolice a eood description of the
man. He was young, she said, but
soft does not know whether he was
a negro or a white man. Edwin R.
Jackson, former assistant county at
torney, and Dr. Ericson Hill ac
companied the girl to the Purchase
home. Her condition is serious.
This is the third attack upon
women that has occurred in Coun
cil Bluffs within the past week or
10 days. A description which a
45-year-old woman gave of a man
who attacked her Wednesday night
on Benton street, tallies with that of
Miss Johnson's assailant.

The Roadster, Too, Has All
the
Noted Essex Qualities
Speed Power--Endurance Economy- Utility.
It is an Ideal Car for Business as Well as Pleasure
A glance at the illustrations will show
the wide business uses for which the Essex
Rpadster is adapted
Its utilities are many. But note no
evidence of them is revealed when the
Roadster k used as a pleasure car. Every
fine is smart, trim and graceful. It takes
but a moment to make the change.
A World Endurance Record
Proves Essex Dependability
.Economy durability and train -like
regularity are the standards set by Essex.
Tiicse things have been shown in the
hands of more than 25,000 owners, many
of whom have driven their cars from
18,000 to 20,000 miles.
It was more dramatically proved on
the Cincinnati Speedway, when an Essex
stock chassis set the world's long distance
, endurance record of 3037 miles in 50
hours. The same car, in three separate
tests, travelled a total of 5870 miles at an
average speed above a mile a minute.
Another stock Essex set the world's 24
hour road mark of 1061 miles over snow
covered Iowa roads.
A large class of the Roadster buyers
are business men. They choose it for
utility and dependable transportation.
It becomes in fact a part of their business
system. It must be on the job, keep all
engagements on time, and be as respon
sible as an engineer's watch.
It is specially suited for salesmen, in
' specters and others who must cover wide
territory, quickly and frequency. Though
not large, the Essex is commodious. There
is plenty of room for passengers, and
special arrangements for carrying sample
cases, unseen, and even a trunk if desired.
Come see the Essex Roadster. Ride in
it. Try its paces. Whether you want it
for business or pleasure, you will appre
ciate why Essex in its first year set a new
world's sales record.
