         Engages Robber in Pistol Duel
         
         Farmer Near Nashville Pursues Burglar
          Horseback But Fails to Land Him.
          
         Hastings, Mich., July 21. - CHARLES FEIGHNER,
       a prominent farmer living one mile north of Nash-
       ville, exchanged shots with a daring burglar whom
       he pursued on horseback last night.
         The hired girl, hearing some one trying to force
       an entrance aroused the family. MR. FEIGHNER ob-
       tained a revolver, opened the window and hailed
       the man who was in the act of carrying off some
       articles. At the sound of FEIGHNER'S voice, a rig
       in front of the house started up the road, leaving
       the burglar to hurry on behind. Hastily mounting
       his horse, FEIGHNER started in pursuit.
         He overtook the man who leaped over a fence and
       took refuge behind a tree. Both men opened fire
       with revolvers at the same time. None of the shots
       took effect and the fugitive disappeared in the
       darkness.
         Sheriff RITCHIE has been looking for a strange
       man seen in the vicinity earlier in the evening.
