fore attacked by robbers, bound and gagged,
but no money was taken. The deed was the
work OF one man, Joseph Il. Kelley, formerly
OF Amesbury, Mass, and n ne'er-do-well. He
was captured in a disreputable house in
Montreal and $1,000 of the money
confessed to the robbery, but not to the
murder. lie told where $1,000 was buried
and this was recovered. Later he CON
fessed to the murder in detail. He had en-
gagged room opposite the bank and learned
OF the cashiers habits. Tn, latter had
young Ia iy assistant. Kelley, who had male
every attempt and with some success to get
into the good graces OF Mr.. Stckney, watched
until Miss Swasey, the assistant. had gone
to lunch, and within the few minutes before
the cashier would put the money away and
likewise go to lunch, the murder was COM
mltted The confession is as follows:
Kelley had made his plans to rob the cash
Ter pra ,tically as they were carried out
Wednesday and Thursday morning he
thought continually about the matter, and
at noon OF the latter day he had his plans all
arranged. He decided that he would go to
the bank with an order from tho Berwick
postmaster for the postage stamps kept in
cashier was near him he would use
his blackjack ON tho defenceless old
man. Thursday forenoon he completed his
plan by making out an order for the stamps,
signing the postmastcr's name to the paper
When he thought the time had como for the
old man to be alone In the bank he walked
up the stairs anil looked in Mt the window,
to his surprise he saw that Miss Swasey had
not gone, but stood inside talking to the old
man. Kelley did not dare make the attack
with two persons in the apartment, so he
withdrew as quietly rs possible, and stole
down stairs without either Mr. Stckncy or
Miss Swasey noticing him, he felt sure.
This first failure, instead OF deterrlng
him. made him all the more determined, and
on Friday for 10 or 20 minutes. he waited
about on the opposite side OF the street to
see Miss Swasey leave the bank building.
He did not watch from tho window of his
shop, because he thought he would not
have time to get down stairs and
across to tho bank before Mr.. Stickney
would leave. When Miss Swasey came out
of the bank building and walked hurriedly
awayto her home and luncheon, Kelley
realized that his tins had come, and, with
out further ado, he hurried across the street
and ran up the stairs. Mr.. Stickney was
busy at the vault putting the money away,
preparatory to going to dinner

1T IS just beginning to dawn
upon them the hardware dealers,
the general merchants, the grocers
of North Dakota-that the only
effective means of combating the
nefarious work of the steele range
.peddler aud kindred fakirs is to
advertise in the local newspapers.
The Inherent yender goes to the
home Of the prospective purchaser
and praises his wares. The local
merchant cannot do that, but he
canreach him as effectively through
the medium Of the press. By this
means he can head off the foreign
concerns who carry off the cash of
the country and give the communi-
ty nothing in return. The solution
of this vexel problem is an easy
one and it never fails. -Hillsboro
