CHICAGO, Ill.,, March 1.-two women
fought duel with hatpins last evening
in Lake Forest, a fashionable North
Shore suburb. Police put an end to the
contest by arresting both principals.
Although more than 100 persons wit
messed the struggle between Mrs. Joseph
Smith Of Highland Park and Mrs. Otto
Ekstrant of Lake Forest. only one man
interfered. Mr.. Smith went to the as
sistance of his wife's adversary and got
pommeled for his temerity.
The only visible wound after the wom-
en- bad jabbed viciously with their weap-
pms was bad scratch in the corner
Of Mr.. Smiths right eye.
Mrs. Smith declares her husband left
her three months ago. She went to Lake
Forest and says she saw him and Mrs
Ekstrant get off a car at the station OF
the Chicago Milwaukee interurban line
The two women rushed at one another
drawing hatpins for the attack. Two
policemen had their hands full trying to
separate the combatants. The women
were released on 500 bonds each.
