WATERFOWL, Dak., June 1.-THE city is
somewhat agitated over tn assault Tuesday
evening upon Edward Fahnestock, one of our
highly respectable and active young men, by
a woman of by no means enviable character.
Ed Fahnestock is the son of Col. E. G.
Fahnestock, of one of Watertown's most
highly respectable families and prominent in
the leading social circles. Mr.. Fahnestock is
proprietor of the Watertown steam laundry,
and the woman who made the assault had
been for a time in his employ, but Fa hne-
stock "fred' her. The woman's wrath rose
to high pitch, and snatching club. COM
menced pummeling young Fahnestock, who
being of slight build and feminine in appear
ance, was hardly equal to the attack of a
strong and vicious woman. Chasing him
into the street and hurting the club at him,
he seized an opportunity and returned
a blow in self-defense, which caused the
woman to measure her length on the sidewalk
He was arrested upon complaint of the
woman, but it is thought that the matter will
be adjusted without further difficulty The
social event of the week was the marriage of
Il. h. Rowe. a rising young attorney Of this
place, to Miss Gertrude Dewey, daughter of
Hon. NJ. r. Dewey, at the residence of the
brides father in Ohio, Ill. H. l.. Sheldon Of
the Citizens National bank, is absent in pur-
suit OF q man who forged check on the
bank for about $50, rather small price for q
young mans honor. Hon. 20. Mellette re-
turned yesterday after an absence of two
weeks in the Hoosier state, where he was ac-
companied by Mrs. Mellette, who remains for
week among relatives.
