A JtMrteroBf HuttM-. Attempt t M r4er
A horrible traced was enacted at Roots
town, Ohio, on (b'22d u!t- Mr. ' Horace
L. Ensign had risea, and, without dressing.
was tn the act or patting, a stick of wood
itk the kitchen store. Whea he - was - felled
bra Mow 'on htsrfcead. 5 Mr. E. was stand
iog at ihe time , near a door thut opened
iiito the wood-shed. The door was-ajar,
antr th blow was' giren from same ' person
in ihe shed. . He saw ho one, but placing
his hands on each side of his bead, he
hastened through; into his dining room,
wbeie hiSwifev was. Hfr exclaimed. "J

door a;criedvma ,JHi-e-sefig

for k help. Meantime .the children were
awakened and Carae running , the eldest,
V;a sod of lpi on coming down stairs opened
lae .ooor to in, wooa-sneq, muiKing ms
father was tn Ihera. .On opening the door
the first object that be saw v.-aa a man with
aTns.:iliIted-axe- looking", like a demon at
bim. i Hasajs, "Caleb, what do you want
of ne :V' XiaiVeaf prapg back and shut the
door. ABjr this tithe a neighbor came across
lh street and went to the wood house, when
the- mamc addressed him by name:
HDonuM Deming.' "That, is my name,"
l. rtpriedr and, coutiniied he, "John Chit
tenden, what are you doing" with that axe"
l thirst for bjodt and blood 1 will have,"
aid'he.7'Mr:Deining tried to cool him
dowhj'ftnd after a few .minutes succeeded
iA getting, the, axe. However . before he
could gel' it away, ;Cbiilenden, who is a
powerful man,' sprang for the axe,. and De
eding being much the weaker, Chittenden
wrenched it from hi m. Some of the chil
dren had been sent for help, even in their
undress.: 'After losing. his hold upon the
uxe, Demlf-g retreated to the "dining ' room",
where Horace sat bleeding, and his family
around him,' frightened very much. De
nting held the" door from the dining room,
and hoped to keep him from that, but with I
the axe be shivered the door at once, when
Mr.-Deming . exclaimed, "run for yoar
lives." By ihiijuEraanother neighbor got
there, and on seeing what was going on,
rao for home 16 get his rifle, thinking it
best to shoot the madman.
Upotf ibe word being given to run, they
all left, as they thought, and Deming shut
iheVuter door J'but Luanda, their eldest
daughter fifteen years old) stopped to save
a'litile brother,- two and a half years o'd
who had been' awakened by the breaking
in of the door, " and bad jumped from bis
bed on to the floor, and stood scr:imin
fronr flight. - She. caught him in her arm?,
and readied the outer door just in lime to
get her fingers pinched as Deming shut
the door.. 'She saw the wretch leap thro'
the door,? through where the upper panel
had been broken. She called to have them
open the door, but by this , time she receiv
ed a blow from the bead of the axe, which
felled her with :be httle one in her arms.
Meanwhile" Horace, had a presentiment
that some child still remained in the house,
andhad "gone around to the back -kjtehen
door and entered passing into the dining
rponu.. There "Jay, LucinJa, weltering in
oTood, and as he supposed, dead. Thout
side door had been opened. Deming had
opened it for the child when she called.--Cbhtenden
was in the act of splitting open
Dealing's head Horace sprang across the
dining room and . seized the axe-handle to
avert the blowv from D. Chittenden find
. ing some one behind; bim, turne J upon him,
and in the scuffle, cut to the bone on the
back of Horace's bead. Upon that Hor-J
ce ei2ed bim by the throat, and Ueming
by huf -leg-,' and by a. hard ; struggle they
""got him ' down, .he still" retaining the axe,
and Horace still" choking him. By -this
time the' woman: had called the man back
that had gone for his rifle. He came, and
with much .difficulty wrenched the axe
(root bim, (he only, held it in one hand ;)
tfxe'y- then got ropes and bound him: ; Hor
ace was covered with blood, and sd was
the floor. , f
Afrer the man was secured, a messen
ger Was posteti to Ravenna- for medical
aid.; The' word flew like lightning, and a
general jrush ensued. Horace's head was
trepanne- His brain lay exposed during
his struggle with the, tanan. - The pulsation
could be seen, but the membrane was not
broken. ; .The inside of the bone was one
and oneAeigbi of an inch T long,' and three
fourths of an inch wide. Upon the outside
the bone was? more than two inches'" long,
besides t wo small -pieces which were not
measured: He, to all appearance will sur
