Isaac Patterson, in which she brought
suit for 100000 damages, was dispos-
ed of in a summary manner on Mon
day by the court sustaining a demur-
rer to the petition which is supposed
to practically end the case. The court
held that the contract, on which the
plaintiff sought to recover, was not
supported by any legal consideration;
that the contract on whicn she relied
was against public policy.
The grand jury was in session but
a few days last week and returned sew
eral indictments, none of which will
be for trial at this term.

Alteration at Manila Results in
Henry Evitts, White Man, Be.
ing Seriously Hurt.
Later Brought to Denison and Placed
in Jai-Evtts Will Recover
From the Attack.

William Jones, the negro arrested
GUS assault upon fellow workman,
is fortunate in that the injured man
will recover. 1t seems thar Henry
Evitts and William Jones were work
ing in the railroad yards at Manila
when they got into dispute and the
colored man struck Evitts on the
head with a pick He was arrested
and brought to Denison, and is now
confined in the county jail. His case
may be disposed of at this session of
the district court. The Manila
Times has the following to say of the
assault:
In an alteration in the Milwaukee
coal shute about 500 o'clock Wednes-
day morning, negro laborer en-
ployed there, struck Henry Evitts,
white man and fellow laborer in the
forehead over the right eye with a
coal pick. A Milwaukee brakeman dis
covered the injured man and he was
taken to his home and medical aid
summoned. The wound was found to
be an ugly one and while the unfor-
tunate man is still living, it may cost
him his life.
The negro left the shutes as soon
as the deed was done and started
east up the track. After going some
distance he crossed to the John Barn
quist home, where it is said he
compelled Mrs. Barnquist to give him
something to eat and coat to wear
as he left without his coat From
there he went south and then west
and about 10 o'clock was seen south
| of the Greedy Stock farm. He was
traced to Defiance and message at
noon from that point stated they had
the negro, and Constable D. P. Rob-
ertson and several others went down
