John Christ, better known in this vicinity as the ‘“‘Big Swede,’”’ was ar- rested Saturday night, charged with attempted rape on the person of Miss Adaline Benefield, 45 years old, an invalid sister of Marshal Alf Bene- field. As we get the story from Marshal Benefield and others who were called to the home, Miss Adeline was at home alone at about 9:30 o'clock, when Christ came along the sidewalk. He made his way up to the door, and Miss Adeline, frightened at his pres- ence, ran screaming through her home. She was pursued by the “Swede’’ who caught her as she at- tempted to leave the house, and thrown down on the front porch. Her screams brought several neigh- bors to the rescue, but it was several minutes before enough men arrived on the scene to overpower Christ, who prides himself on his streugth and fighting qualifications. The po- lice were summoned by telephone, and Christ was locked up. He waived a preliminary hearing, and was bound over to the circuit court on $2000 bond, which he failed to furnish and was taken to Butler Tuesday and lodged in jail.—Review.
