HELD up WRONG MAN.
And Thought the Lightning had
Struck Them.

Jim Duncans, a blacksmith en-
ployed at the Florence Carriage
company's shop, had a decidedly
interesting mix-up last evening
with two men who evidently mis-
took him for another party. From
their point of view the mistake
was most regrettable one, and
the consequences we're deplorable.
Duncans is a tall, strongly built
man, with the muscular advantages
that characterize those of his call
ing. Between 6 and 7 o'clock last
evening he was returning home.
Near the corner of Petroleum
avenue and Fourth street he was
attacked by two men, The first, a
heavy built man, grabbed him by
the arm and shoulder and said
"You - I've got you now,"
Duncans led with his right and
landed on his assailant's face, and
the heavy man was hoored. Then
a smaller man stepped from be-
hind tree and reached for Dun
cans, but quickly delivered
swinging right on the jaw made
him assume horizontal position.
The larger man then arose, but
before Duncans could catch him
he escaped Duncans' coat was
badly torn, and all the buttons
were ripped off.
DuncHns says he does not be-
lieve the men were after money.
He met the same two men near
the same place two weeks ago, and
again the night before last They
appeared to be waiting for some
one. If that is true, they made
the mistake of not waiting long
enough.
Officers searched for the two
men last evening but without sue
cess.

0lnstsad. Hoy Breach Of Promise
Suit Has ! Hearing In the
suprsms Court
Case ii which ! Waterloo Girl
Was Given $4,000 Damages
d Reversed.
Court Il suppossd to Have Held That
No Engagement Existed Between
the Parties

The supreme court Of Iowa has held
that a Waterloo lady is not entitled to
receive the good money of a young
Marshalltown man because OF the
breaking OF an alleged engagement.
Among the decisions rendered by the
court at Dies Moines today was one re-
sversing the decision OF the district
court in the suit brought by Miss Nam
ME Olmstead, OF Waterloo, against
Andrew w. Hoy, until recently a drug
gist OF this city. This case was tried by
Judge Caswell In the district court of
Marshall county in 1899. Miss Olmstead
who was a handsome young lady and
highly respected in her home city,
brought suit for 10000 damages. claim
ing that Mr.. Hoy had broken without
reason a promise to marry her. She
alleges that in 1895 while Mr.. HOY was a
resident of Waterloo, they became en-
gagged: that after his removal to this
city he made frequent trips to that city
to gee her: that finally the time for
their marriage was set for the spring
OF 1899. and that she was making ali
preparations for the event when, in
November. 1898. she received word Of
Mr.. Hoy's marriage to Mrs. Jessie Hur-
ley. milliner Of this city.
Mr.. Hoy set up the defense tha.
while he had proposed to Miss DIM
stead she accepted the proposal condi-
tionally, and introduced her letters TO
show that both were free to marry an
other. provided they al any time found
some one they liked better. The jury.
at the conclusion Of the hearing. which
attracted much attention in this city
and in Waterloo, awarded Miss DIM
stead $4,000 damages Efforts were
made to have the verdict set aside at
that time but this Judge Casweil re-
fused to do and the case was appealed
to the supreme court, with the result
that it is now reversed. Several points
We're raised in the appeal, 1.-THE import
ant one being that the engagement was
conditional, and 1t is presumed by the
attorneys for the defendant that the
reversal is on this ground If it is there
will be no re-trial, as the plaintiff
would have nothing to go to court on.
Mr. Hoy Is at the present time en-
gagged with a large drug house at Cedar
Rapids, having disposed of his business
interests here.
