Fire attacks made upon women in the eastern suburbs brought the day's total up to seren and the aggregate to twenty-fire since the beginning of these ricious assaults. One woman was seriously wounded. The others* injuries were slight. It seems enough for their assailants to cause them to suffer pain. Many persons, most of them women. declare they hare seen the mysterious assailant, bnt, as he turned to the injured woman, he escaped. The descrlntlon of these witnesses agree u> a certain extent. So the police might theorize that one man in guilty of all the attacks. But many witnesses swear that three men simultaneously attacked one girl, a servant, in the street. One with a sharp knife stabbed her in the abdomen, tnen the three ran away without even attempting to take the bandies or the pu-se the girl carried. Th?

A morrlnnt't wife a ntatd women of Irreproachable character, was walking in a street In the southern part of the city. She had not the slightest warning from her assailant, who approached her from behind, faced her and struck at her with a \nlfe. The hand she raised In defense was wonnded and then the man stabbed her In the thigh and fled. Five women of the working class were wounded In the city and In the suburbs, two were seriously hurt. The first attack occurred In the Moablte quarter at 9 o'clock In the morning in the ooen street. The assailant atabbed his victim in the upper arm. Anothet woman was wounded In the thigh dnrlng the forenoon In the northern section of the Mtv. A girl was attacked at 3 p. m. In the eastern section.

The assailant then beat his victim to unconsciousness. She was found half an hour later and taken to a hospital. Later in the evening the wife of another butcher was wounded in the thigh, this in the eastern section of the city. In each instance the assailant, who seems to wear silent shoes, approaches his victim without arousing suspicion, delivers his attack suddenly and then flees. The people of the laboring auar tera of the city are much excited over the frequent assaults. The streets are deserted at night by the females who frequent them usually. The police. whose watchfulness is highkeyed. are nonplussed. Many more arrests hare been made, but all the prisoners were able to prove their innocence. Some, however, first sulfered from the fury of the imaginative crowds. A drunken man who ODened his pocket knife and flourished it was nearly killed. Some cases have occurred of women who have cut their own clothing and pricked themselves for the purpose of becoming objects of public interest and sympathy. Whether the list of twenty-six victims includes any of these !s net clear. The Idea originally held that some maniacal Jack the Ripper was the author of the attacks has been abandoned. It is believed that the impunity of the perpetrator of the earlier outrages has encouraged sundry toughs to imitate him. This theory, if possible, increases the alarm, which In onmo (llatrlMa hM hocnmn n nanlr The police, whose very considerable efforts have hitherto failed to stop the crimes, have enlisted the aid of the House Owners' Association. This has been willingly given, and in addition to the concierges of apartment houses, who have been instructed to keep a close watch for attacks on women, special watchmen have been employed to guard the houses and patrol the streets. The police have also asked trolley men. firemen, letter carriers and others whose work Ilea in the streets, to act as special constables. Furthermore, they have issued an appeal to women of all classes to keep their presence of mind in the event of an attack being made on them, and to try to insure the capture of the criminal.

But the gran thing taught by Jesus is that in eac heart sin must be abolished, must t taken away. But let us come to Andrew. Wh was he?

There was 01 glorious thing about him?he ha found Christ. But the main thougl is this disciple's typal character. What I desire to say above all oth< things is, my Christian brother, thi Andrew is yourself. Two spirltui facts ought to stand out in your coi sclousness. The one is that you hai found the Christ. God is more to yo than the blind force that rules tt universe. God in Christ has con into our worldly conditions and ht sympathized with us and has been n< only bather but Brother. So you ca say, "I know Him whom I have b lleved." And the next fact Is, that the finding has been real. It has flllc you with gladness.
