Bennettaville, July 28:?A man entered the home of a citizen of Brightsville Sunday night and attempted an assault upon his daughter as she Blept in her room. She was awakened by the man and jumped from the bed and called her father. The man ran from the back door of the house through which he had entered by breaking the lock. This occurred about 2 a. m. Henry Hubbard, deputy sheriff, received a telephone message at the jail about 3 a. m. He immediately telephoned to the penitentiary in Columbia for bloodhounds and Officer ? Robbins left with the dogs on an early train. They arrived here about 10 o'clock and left immediately for Brightsville. Sheriff Patterson, Deputy Hubbard, T C Chavis, rural policeman, and a large number of citizens from Bennettsville, Brightsville and other parts of the county joined in the hunt. The dogs were put on the track and followed it for over a mile eastward toward Hubbard's creek. They lost the trail where the man had ap- 1 parently entered a buggy. Suspicion had jointed to Wilson Rogers, a 16year-old negro, son of Jake Rogers, who lived on E W Liles' place about two miles from the scene of the attempted assault. Deputy Hubbard went to the j house and as he approached, Wilson asked, "Are you looking for me." Wilson and two or three other ne- > sj groes were told to go to the creek. The dogs crossed the trails of the negroes and followed Wilson until thpv eaucrht him. He was then nr rested and brought in an automobile . to Bennettsville and put in jail about 2 o'clock. The negro denied all knowledge of the crime. There is no ex- j citemen* here and the accused will J be given a fair trial. d Capt William E Gonzales, editor- ** / in-chief <*f the Columbia State, will sail from New York Saturday for ^ Cuba to assume the duties of United States minister to that repubiic. ??
