MORE FLOODED HORSES.

Several Span OF Fine Driving Horses ana
a Car Load of DraugIst Horses-A Beau
tlfMi Display of Horse Flesh.
Mr.. N. J. Rohntasel, of franklin county,
Iowa, arrived in Minneapolis day or so
since with magnificent stud of fine driv-
ing horses, both light and heavy,
including a fine span of matched
grays, weighing 1850 pounds, and
2,10O pounds. The latter are almost per
to the pole. Besides these he has several
other beautiful driving horses, and he al
so has several spans of heavy horses, in
GLIDING as fine lot OF draught horses as
was ever brought to this state. It is not
probable that Mr.. Rohntasel will meet
with difficulty in the disposition of his sta
BILE Of fine bred animals, as he has placed
them in the market at low prices. They
can be seen at Carlson Bros livery stable,
No. 102 First street north.
The KidnGppi ing Case.
As stated in yesterdays GLOBE, little
girl named Ada Lundstin, the only child
of Louis Lundstin, 1916 Second street
south, left her home on Friday evening
and had not been found up to II o'clock at
plight, though many of the neighbors had
joined the grief-stricken parents in
searching for the lost one. Some of the
neighbors had seen her in company with
dissipated vagrant who had been in the
neighborhood for some days past, and it
was natural to think that evil would befal
the innocent child in the company of such
nfaI Ln L.
first to suggest that the neighbors take
lanterns and search the ravines and unfre-
quented hooks in the vicinity of Murphy's
grove and not to give up the search until
daylight had appeared. His suggestion
was adopted, and large party started out
on the expedition, some going in one direc-
ton and some in another, and at last she
was found, not in the woods as was antici-
pated, but in the saloon of John iceland
on the corner af Twenty-nineth street and
Twenty-sixth avenue south, to which place
the vagrant brought her about o'clock in
the evening. The child was taken home
and Osland was arrested yesterday for
kidnapping and placed in the lookup to
await an investigation and trial in the
municipal court tomorrow. The
child informed her parents
that she was induced to accompany
the man from being promised gold ring
pair of new shoes and candy. Osland in
a talk with the reporter last evening said
he was drunk at the time and that the
child accosted him as "father" and follow
ed him, and as he was in a semi-delirious
state of mind from imbibing to much tangle
foot he imagined that the child was really
his own daughter. He says he is 80 years
old and has wife and three sons living
on farm in the town of Cranky, Nicollet
county, but he does not live with his wife
from the fact that she is Baptist and OBJ
serves Saturday as holiday and that he
was necessarily plagued by her to
join her in worship on that
day instead of Sunday.
He worked for R. B. Langdon as lab
orer on the Canadian Pacific railroad from
the LIST of May to the 18th of August, and
about the goth of last month came to Min
neapolis with $120 in his pocket. He got
drunk and was knocked down on the street
by footpad and robbed of $53.
This made him feel desperate and he
sought consolation for his trouble in the
flowing bowl and quaffed it so heavily as
to become Supplied, when guardian of
the law in the form of a burly policeman
took him into custody and he was placed
for ten days in the county jail to sober off.
Being asked if he had daughter he an
swered no, and said he could not
account for his hallucination in thinking
Ada Lundstin was a daughter of his. He
is in fear and trembling lest raid may
be made on the lookup by indignant citi-
zens who may treat him to a piece of
rope q la McManus.
The child was not molested while in
his company and perhaps he may escape
punishment on the plea Of being intoxi-
GATED and not knowing what he was doing.
He realizes the predicament he is in and
is confident of establishing his innocence.
