Demons-oar. Gena. lisy Ii.-—A masked
burglar secured an entrance to the Liasley
mansion in iiiretiord. and with a club
heat into inseneibllity Miss Elizabeth
Lyon Liusley. and attacked brutally a
servant, a middle aged women, who went
to her rescue.
The Linsley mansion is situated on Elm
street. a broad and densely shaded than
oughlere in the village of Stanford. (in
the street are the residences of many sum‘
mer residents. but few of them are econ.
pied at present The lllnsley mansion was
built nearly 100 years ago and stands back
from the street, surrounded by beautiful
grounds and runny shade trues. The house
is large. square built, and the windows
large and about 12 feet from the around.
Saw a Masked Man.
Miss Linsley and the only servant that
stays at the house nights retired at an
early hour. Miss Lineiey was restless, and
as the clock struck thdmldnight hour she
turned in her bed, and through the door,
which was slightly ajar, saw a light. (lot-
ting out of bed. she went to the door load-
ing into the hall, and pushing it wide
open saw a masked man with a light in
one haml and a large club in the other
standing in the doorway. liefore she could
say a Word the man raised the club and
than struck her a blow on the head. Miss
illnsley screamed. and again the man
struck her.
Up to this timeihc man had not spoken.
Ashe draw back the club to deal another
blow Miss Linslcy cried:
"Don't kill me! Don‘t kill me!"
This had no effect. Another blow fol-
lowed, and Miss Linsley fell unconscious
to the floor. The room she occupied is on
the second floor. (in the first floor is the
room of Kate llowncy. the only servant in
the house. She was awakened by the
screams of Miss Linsley. and. thinking
the house was on fire. hurried through the
long ball and up the wide stairway to the
second lloor. Just as she reached the top
of the stairs she was confronted by the
intruder. in his hand he still had the
club. liaising it above his head, he or
claimed:
"(iive me the money. or 1'“ kill you!"
As he uttered the words ili' solved the
servant by the shoulder. at ibe some time
knmklng the lump she carried from her
hand and droppingihe one lm'carriod.
This left them in darkness except for
the faint light from the hall lamp. which
was burning dimly.
“There is no money in the house. " re
plied the servant “ Miss l.lnsloy ucvvr
keeps money in the house. You don‘twant
to kill me, do you?"
Pushed lli-r Down Stairs.
The burglar than plaimd his other hand
on the shoulder of the Woman. turned her
about and pushed her down stain ahead
of him. At the lmttom oi the stairs he
pushed her into a (other of the hall. She
struck against a marble top table and fell
to the floor.
Partially stunned by the fall. she lay
therefor a short iiine. and when she re-
covered consciousness all was silent in the
house. in fear and trembling the servant
at last reached her own room. and, once
inside. securely locked the door. ribs
thought that her mistress had been mur~
dared. and, fearing that the burglar was
still in the house, did not dare to leave her
room.
About 3 o'clock bliss Linsley so for re
covered consciousness as to i'i'lsii/o that
something must he done. and she went in
search of the servant. From then until
daylight the tvvo \vomen remained in the
room on the iirst door, the servant attend
ing her mi~ircss as best she could. Whon
daylight came. aid was summoned and
Dr. ('ugswvll called. When ibo physician

The authoriih-a are making a thorough
