INTREPID WOMAN
REPULS[S NEGRO
WITH A REVOLVER
Vicious Attack Fails on
F Street in Early
Morning.

Mrs A. Z. Fitch. who conducts q 10.
I oacco store at so r street northwest
was attacked by a negro near sixth
| and streets at dawn today. and ex-
cept FOR Che fact that she had .aken
the precaution 10 carry a revolver. ir
Is likely that she would have been
Drutally assaulted.
MRS Fitch lives at 5l3 Sixth street
ohe opens the store herself at 2 y-claclr
leaving the house about go. When
sne reached the corner of F. street mis-
morning a negro suddenly jumred out
from behind tree and struck her q
stunning blow on the shoulder.
The blow almost knocked her off b.-
feet, but she managed TO keen her baI-
ance, and before the man had an on
portunity 10 draw his arm hack +o
strike again, Mrs. Fitch had taken a
revolver from her wrist bag ana ba5
tHe weapon pointed at the negro's 5
chest
If you put your hands on ME again
III blow your heart out" Mrs Fitch
told the negro.
The man ran down Sixth street. Mrs
F1tch describes her assailaut as a vel
low skin negro, we'll dressed and of
neat appearance. He was about tvyeD-
ty-hve or thirty years old and five
feet, ten inches in height He wore a
dark suit, long black overCo7r and
black fedora hat. Mrs. Fitch saws she
can identify the man
The number. of recent attacks mn
women by negroes in all parts of the
city led Mrs. Fitch to purchase n re-
volver In the winter it is usually
dark when she goes to the store in tba
morning, and frequently il is late ar
night before the store IS closed.
Although she had been in possession
of the revolver for several davs. This
was the first time she made
up her mind To carry 1t. She pur the
weapon in her handbag which she car
ried in her left hand
AS soon as the negro struck mo 7
reached in the bag and got Ott tre
revolver she said. THE nan i,7r,ra,7
out so quickly that / was taken nv
surprise, but for some reason seemed
70 have a premonition tnat souaetbiree
was going to happen today. I guess
that was the reason I took the ~
yolver with ME.
4 didn't give the man q chance IN
strike me twice I leveied the gun at
his heart, and he ran down the street >,
When Mrs. Fitch reported the case
to the police she said she made no on
cry at the time as there was no one on
sixth or + street. Detectives War
ren and Mullen have been assigned to
make an investigation. A descrinfion
of the negro f.as been sent 10 an the
precincts in tie city.
