HIGHWAY ROMANCE
Norman de Hay, son of James A. de Hay.
the blacksmith. reported at about midnight
last night that he had been viciously at
tackled by hghwayman near the corner
of Catalina avenue and Colorado street.
In support of his story he shows a badly
cut overcoat, bloody knife, sliced glove
and gashed hat. Norman, who Is IL years
old, says he was going to see his father,
who was sitting up with sick friend on
Wilson avenue. Aa tall man, dressed in a
black sack coat and Derby hat, and wear
ing u heavy mustache, jumped out at him
and demanded that he throw up his hands.
A second demand was followed by grab
at Norman's watch chain. De Hay says
he knocked the man down. Later the man
arose and slashed at him with a knife. De
Hay drew his own penknife and returned
the slashes. The result was that the tall
man ran. De Hay promptly reported the
matter to Marshal Lacey. who, upon inves-
tigation, found some tracks, but no man.
The fact that De Hay was not wounded in
the least looks strange and causes some of
his hearers to doubt his story. The young
man is the same person who ran away from
home year or two ago, being gone some
days before his father, who advertised
widely for him, succeeded in returning him
to the parental domicile.
