Confessed Again.

George Lewis, the colored man who was arrested for an attempted assault upon Mrs. Mason on the bridge leading to the Northside last Saturday night was suspected by Sheriff Gillen of having been a party to other assaults which have been attempted in the past. The sheriff yesterday induced him to confess that he was the man who seized Miss Barbara Bader, of N. Fifth ave., on the corner of State and Fuller sts., on the morning of Jan. 21, last, and was frightened away by her screams and ran down the railroad truck.

Lewis will be arranged before Judge Kinne next Monday and will probably then receive his sentence for attempted assault upon Mrs. Mason. It is a good thing for the community that this man is finally locked up.
