Swanson Gives Up $1.50 and Keeps a Roll of Larger Denomination. SECURES HELP AND GIVES PURSUIT Highwaymen and Swanson Prove to Be Poor Marksmen in Shooting Match Which Follows. W. A. Swanson, a well-to-do farmer of | Honey Creek, had a thrilling experience with two highwaymen while driving home | from Council Blufts last evening. Although he had a large sum of money on his per- son, Swanson satisfied the demands of the road agents by handing out $1.50 on the had with him. From the mervous manner of the two fellows Swanson is sattefied they were amateurs at the business. Ho was able to give the police a good descrip- tion of the two men, as they were not dis- guised in any way. Swanson was driving home in his cutter nd he reached a point on the Crescent City road just the other side of Krettek's | saloon, when two fellows sprang into the | middle of the road. One seized the bridles of the horees, while the other placed a revolver at Swanson's head, ordering him to hold up his hands. “They're up,” exclaimed Swanson as soon as he could catch his breath. The words | had barely left his lips when the revolver | in the hands of the highwayman was dis- | charged and the bullet whistled by, within | an inch of Swanson's ear. ““Hold on there. Don’t be in such a hurry with that gun; you can have my money,” | shouted Swanson “Well, how much have you got? Hand it out,” answered the fellow with the gun. Swanson sald he had only $150 n silver, and handed it over to the fellow, who made no attempt to go through his pockets. As it was, Swanson had upward of $100 on him. The fellows then told him to keep on his way and not attempt to turn back. Swanson did as he was ordered until he met a young fellow named Abel, to whom he told about the holdup. With Abel he drove to the latter's home nearby and there secured a shotgun. Thus armed, Swanson, accompanied by Abel and another young fellow, drove back In pursuit of the high- waymen whom they overtook near Ander- son's brickyard on the outskirts of thé clty. The fellows, percelving they were pur- sued, stopped and both emptied the con- tents of their revolvers at the occupants of the cutter, but their marksmanship was poor. Swanson, at the firet outset of the fusillade jumped from the cutter with the shotgun and opened fire on the fellows, but falled to hit them. Seelng that their pur- suers were armed the highwaymen took to thelr heels and jumped the fence and were soon lost to sight in the brick yard. Swanson then drove on into town and reported the matter to the police, gfving them an ample description of his assail- ants, both of whom were young fellowg and evidently amateurs in the road agent | business.

AWARDS BOY TO HIS AUNT Judge Considers Solely the Future re of the Child in Mak- ing Ruling. After a hearing lasting nearry the en- tire day Judge Macy in the district court | yesterday decided the habeas corpus vro- cecdings over Edwin Hubbard, the 11-yvear- old gon of Henry F. Hubbard of this citv. who died last Sunday, in favor of the lad's | aunt, Mrs. Lillian M. Balfour of Chatta- | nooga, Tenn. In arriving at this decision Judge Macy explained that he gave the custody of the lad to the aunt and uncle belleving that the boy's future welfare de- manded it as Mr. and Mrs. Balfour wero far better able to provide for him than his step-mother was or would be. = At the same time Judge Macy took t(he opvor- tunity to pay a high tribute to Mrs. Hub- bard and expressed the opinfon that while she might feel the loss of the boy whom she had come to regard as her own. she would realize that it was for the bov's | good Under the order of the court Mr. and Mrs. Balfour will be required to legally | adopt young Hubbard and this they stated they were not only willzg to do, but would make him equal with thelr daush- ter to their estate. The evidence befire the court showed that Mr. Balfour is a well-to-do merchant of Chattanooga. The court room was crowded during the hear- ing with relatives cf the family and ths scene when the court handed down his decision was most affecting, the women in particular being unable to restrain thelr emotions.
