The Notorious econ" Man in Trouble
Again at MankatO.

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 1S.-"Iron
Foot" Johnson, one Of the most noto-
rious econ" men in the country, is In
trouble again. It was only two or three
weeks ago that he was arrested in Min
neapOlis by Detective Lawrence, who
recognized Johnson on sight, and
thought he would be safer locked up.
Judge Kerr fined the prisoner 800 or
ninety days, but allowed him one day
to leave the city. Inspector Lawrence
yesterday learned that Johnson is one
of two men who stole 500 from Will
lam Eddy, Of La Grange, Or, at the
Omaha depot, Mankato, last Friday.
Johnson and his partner tried to get
Eddy to bet In a three-card monte
game Eddy refused, but the swind-
lers induced Eddy to exhibit his $500 in
gold and then they seized 1t. The train
was about to start. JQhnson's partner
boarded it in safety, but Johnson fell.
He was captured by the station agent
at the point of a gun. Johnson gave
the name of John Howard, Minneapolis,
upon being arrested His pal was
caught at st. Peter.

also looking for partner for life and
intimated, in true lovers manner that
she thought he would suit her. He told
of his children, and said he wanted
good, kind wife who would take care
of his family. Matters moved along
swimingly until tonight, when frankie
is said to have touched her pros
pectiVe spouse for what he had left of
his hard earned wages, a total Of
$3.50. Then she tried to get away
without bidding an affectionate fare
