she had plunRed the blade of a pair of
shears into hit nrm.
"My father, mother and slter nre
burled In the same lot In the cemetery.
at Fisher's lane and Adams road." She
said. "My husband's grave is in the
ame cemetery, but in another lot. 1
Vas on my knees and was trimming the
grass on my mother's grave about 12:r.O
o'clock yesterday afternoon when 1 felt
a hand on my head.
"At first I thought It might be some
friend. I glanced around and saw n
man's legs. I tried to rise, and the
man grabbed my neck and threw me
down. I managed to struggle to my
feet, still holding the sliear. when the.
man hit me in the face, knocking me
down again.
"As I fell he put n hand over m
mouth and with the other hand gut
hold of my throat. 1 tried to kick him.
and then I jabbed the blade of the
shenrs into his arm with all my
strength.
"He never poke, even when T nit
him, but ho took his hand away from
my mouth. Then I screamed. lie
struck me in the face a?aln, and I fell
back ovr the grave. The shears fell
from my hand and I was helpless.
"He must have thought mj screams
would bring help, beer.tfc he ran nw:n
after knocking me down. He did not
try to take my pocketbook, which was
lying on a crave. All it had in it was
seventy-five "cuts.
"I was able to walk to Fisher's lane,
where I saw a postman coining along.
I told him of the attack. A trolley i ar
came along and the postmun halted it.
lie told the ear crew and secrnl pas
sengers got off and hunted for mv as
sailant. They could not find him."
Mrs. Dlckel was able to go to her
home, where she lives with Mrs. Fmma
Aroldt, a daughter. She said she was
unable to sleep all night. Every time
her eyes closed, she said, she imagined
the man was bending over and choking
her.
Mrs. Dickel said her assailant was
about twenty-five years old nnd rnughh
dressed. He wore a blue shirt and dark
trousers. Police of the Frankford sta
tion are investigating.

The snub the City Council, of Hrldgc
ton, N. .7., handed its new women vot
ers at a meeting in Council chambers
Inst night didn't take.
Just for that the women are going
to go cverv time now to see whnt else
thev can find out.
The story of the slnm or snub is brief.
In the words of Mrs. Hnrrj Leach,
prominent Ilepubllcnn, who was one of
those put out in more than one sense
of the word, here it Is:
"About six or eight of us went to
attend a session of Councl'. I had a
little business to transact and did so.
The men transacted some matters, too.
They couldn t have been nicer all
through the session. Shook hands with
us, i-miled politely nnd did everything
for us. Then camo the motion to nd
loiirn Of course we got tin and started
to make our way out. The last two-)
of us were leaving the room when sud- ,
denh 1 heard the President of ( otinrll
sound his gavel. He reconvened the
session.
"I turned nround and said. 'I feel
as though this is a put-up job. It's
the first time I ever knew there was
an thing secret about the city's business
before.' Hut they didn't ask us to
come hack."
"Will it stop us?" Mm. Ieach said
in answer to the question. "Indeed it
will not. It would take more than
that to keep us back. It makes ua all
the more interested In Council. We'll
go every timo now and see what else
they do."
Tho delegation of women, who visited
Council came frtm tho women's unit
of the Republican State organization.
The councllmen claim that the 're
convening was simply nn oversight.
Nevertheless the women are still turn
ing over in their mlndi this little tid
bit; n decision to borrow $00,000 to
pay for street paving was nrrlvcd nt
at the after-meeting,
John S. Hann is president of Council.
