woman became involved in dispute with
her landlord about lock on the door OF
her apartments, which kerns refused TO hx

rooms on Tuesday and became very abusive.
The woman ordered him out two or three
times. but instead OF going, he picked up

work when he was disarmed by another ten

VIII Hiring Buck Young Ackermnn.
Albert Ackerman, the young frebug, who
escaped arrest when his brother and three
other boys were taken into custody for
firing dwelling houses on Fifth avenue, will
be brought back from Ashland, Neb., today.
Sheriff Morgan left for that place last even
ing with a warrant for the boys arrest.
Ackerman and younger Bethers boy were
arrested there on Saturday night upon sus-
picion and the fact telephoned to the police
department here. The boys claimed that
they had left home two weeks ago. but as
they knew all about the incendary fires and
gave their real names the Ashland officers
felt justified in locking them up The
Bethers boy has so far not been implicated
in the crime with his older brother and the
remainder of the gang of young toughs, but
he will be brought back with the Ackerman
boy.
The cases against the boys have been con-
tinued week. 1t is quite probable that
they will be disposed OF by being sent to the
state reform school at Eldora as all are
urder the statutory age that permits their
sentence to the penitentiary.
