We are glad to see that the extensive
Agricultural Implement House of, Grovenor

upon the machines exhibited by, them at
the State Fair. They were remarkably
:uocossful, and the number of prizes award
ed this house should demonstrate to farm
els where is tho best place for buying
wheat. agricultural implements or ma
ehinery they may. want. The oficia! list
shows that the 'Case, Thresher," with
Woodbury. power, manufactured at Racine,
Wis, took the first premium over the "Vi-
orator" and '.Tornado'' Threshers and was
sold on the ground. The "Theyer Iron
Mover" and ..Hollingsworth sulkey
Rake" each took : first premium. And
although three other Of the, most populsr
drills we're on exhibition, the buckeye"
took the first premium. The decision Of
the judges concerning Broadcast seeders
had not yet been announced. The follow

made lsss week: He was lately from Min

iAshsr-in-law, J. F. Forrest, recently pur-
CHASED an interest In the fremont Mills.
aid On Monday or Tuesday Of week before
last opened -four and fesd store here. nm
dor tho name Of Forrest 4 Ladd. On the
following Saturday evening Mr.. Ladd went
to Clearwater. leaving Copeland in charge.
He also left him some half dozen checks in
tho oheck.book, sigaed in blank. Copeland
n once tore them ont. filled up one for $50
and bought an ovorccat. With tho rost in
his pocket no went that night to gambling
den, and It is beloved filed and used all.
Two Afterwards came to light-one for $50
and the other for 5000. On Monday
Copeland presented at the Bank of St. Cloud
check for $2l2.50, and obtained tho cash.
The signature to this proved afterwards to
b forgery, On Tuesday no had similar
check for 500 oashed. Certain circam-
stances rendered tho officers Of the bank
suspicious, but hs temporarily satisfied
them. On Tuesday evening the store was
found to be closed, aud remained so until
Mr.. Forrest came from Clearwater on
Thursday. although an entrance had been
;orcsd through window BY the city author
n,es. 1t appssrs that Copeland walked 10
Clear Lake station On Tussds; night, II
miles, and took the next mornings train u
Minneapolis. Arriving there, no bought
suit Of clothes, and then told his brother ot
his doings here. 1t Was discovered that he
had swallowed two ounces Of laudanum,
with the intent Of committing. suicide, but
the prompt use Of sssmaeh pump relieved
him Of il. He Afterwards attempted to
shoot himself. He has since returned to
Clearwater, and VAS in this city yesterday.
When found in Minneapolis hs had but S65
aftsr purchasing the suit. With tho S2l2.-
SO he had redeemed the two gambling
checks that came to light, for 5000, and
it is believed that he also took up the
others. It il tho intention of his friends
to follow this matter up and recover the
money. Mr.. Forrest assumed the forged
checks cashed at tho bank. Copeland il
about % years Of age, WAS very prominent
IL church matters 1t Clearwater, and was
Worthy Chief Of the Good Templars' lodge.
