Thursday night of last week, as
Attorney Lane was coming from
Hague to Linton. after dark, he and
the driver of the rig. Rochus HUM,
the young son Of Peter HUM. the
Hague liveryman, met with start
ling experience. About half way
between Strasburg and the Wudtke
place. few miles southeast Of Lin
ton, three pedestrians held EN- up.
The "feet-pads' attempted to stop
the horses and also made a grab at
Mr.. Lane Charles, however, would
not honor the writ of habeas cor
pus, and strove strenuously for a
change Of venue by applying the
whip to the team. The horses dashed
forward and the outfit escaped into
another jurisdiction. During the
eAClleIlleHl lIle lawyer lOSt MS ten
dollar spectacles. The extra eyes
were found next day by young Hulm
on his way home and returned to
Mr.. Lane; but they were badly dam
aged. The Record is informed by
Strasburg people that the three men
who were engaged in the hold-up
were in that town later in the even
ing, playing pool. and that they
told of the incident and said it was
q joke. 1t would seem that goal"
of this character might have result
ed disastrously. as the travellers
might have had a cannon with them,
and might have numbered their
artillery and gone into action. In
such an event. the field might
have been strewn with dead and
wounded, and the law could not
have been successfully invoked
against the travellers. In fact, the
first thing young HUM asked Mr..
Lane was. Have you got pistol?'
If it was joke, better cut out that
sort O. humor hereafter, boys.
