SAUTER HAS RETURNED.
Culdrum Insane Man Returns to Swan
vile and Is Taken in Charge by
the Authorities.

Any apprehension that the family
OF Jacob Sauter and other residents
OF Culdrum town may have felt at
his disappearance in a demente'i
condition are now set aside. About
two weeks ago Information of in
sanity against Sauter, who has twice
before been committed to the Fergus
Falls asylum, Was filed in the probate
court and an officer was dispatched
to his home in Culdrum to bring him
In for examination. When the
officer reached Sauter's home he
found hat he had disappeared. His
wife said that before leaving he had
declared an inclination to go ped
ding. He had frequently threatened
the lives Of the members OF his family
and they. of course, did not dare to
attempt to detain him. The officer
looked that town over for Sauter
and other points In that vicinity,
but failed to find him. 1t was re-
ported that he had gone to Ada,
where he had friends. Sheriff Rider
LETT word at Swanville for the au-
thorities to take him in custody if he
returned to that place and Friday
evening he received a telegram that
Sauter had returned, and had been
placed under restraint. Deputy
Sheriff VIM. TOurtillOtte went ont to
SN awhile this morning and brought
Sauter back with him.
When Sauter's examination was
called in the probate court this after
noon there was something of a sur
prise to the authorities. There ere
none OF the complaining witnesses
present, but on the other hand
there was quite an array Of wit
