4 MURDER CHARGE
HANGS OYER THEM
Continued from First Page.

a young man whose home is in southern
Wisconsin. but who had been working in
North Dakota. Nystedt met him on
Washington avenue near the Columbia
theater and picked up an acquaintance.
The two visited several saloons and finally
started for the famous resort where Ny
stedt had led so many of his victims.
Haakenson was on the car, too, and when
they reached Prospect Park he left the car
in advance of NyStedt and Colvin and
preceded the two in the direction of the
park. He hid among the bushes and When
Nystedt and Colvin appeared. he sprang
out and struck Colvin. The victim fought
desperately and did not give up until he
was knocked senseless. He was then
robbed Of his watch, s3S in cash and even
his baggage checks were taken from his
pockets. He remained unconscious until
nearly morning when he revived and made
his way to headquarters and reported the
hold-up. Not satisfied with what they
had secured from his pockets, Nystedt and
Haakenson presented the baggage checks
and took his grip tc their room. Some of
the property from the grip was found
when the room was searched yesterday.
Nystedt is %. about six feet tall and
weighs ITO pounds. He is light COM
pleXioned and appears much younger than
he really is. He says he is an iron molder
by, trade and says his home is at Cokato,
MINI.
Haakenson is only IS. He is about
five feet six inches tall and weighs 100.
He is dark compleXioned and looks to be
fully as old as Nystedt. He says his
home is at Osseo. Wis, but that he has
been in the city most Of the time during
the past year. He says he formerly
worked for the Lyman Eliel Drug COM
pany, but that he has not been engaged
since he returned to the city from North
Dakota about Oct. /.
The two men say they have been friends
for nearly a year and that in the past
three months have been together con-
stantly. They occupied a room at 500

were found there.

THE SIGN OF THE ST DIRK
A Pretty, Though Questionable Story of
How 1t Became the Emblem OF
= ~~.:.- Norwegian Town.
. Youths Companion.

In a certain town in Norway the figure
many of the houses. Tourists who so
there often find on sale on every hand
images Of the stork in silver and gilt, or
carved in wood. The story of the origin
Of this sign of the stork is, unusual and
most interesting. The hero Of the tale is
Conrad Jonassen, whose name will be for
ever associated with the stork.
Many years ago, when Conrad was a
boy, a stork built its nest on the roof of
the house Conrad and his mother fed
the bird, and SO encouraged its return.
In time the boy went to sea. One day
the ship fell into the hands Of pirates.
and Conrad, with his shipmates, was sold
into slavery in Africa.
Hardships and indignities of all sorts
were heaped upon them for three years.
One day Conrad say stork flying about
overhead, and was filed with homesick
longings. He whistled to the bird as he
used to do at home, and to his delight the
stork came near and finally alighted, as
If expecting to be fed. <.-...- 49,
He had nothing to give the bird them
but the next day he saved, a. part OF mis-
breakfast, hoping that the stork would
come again.: 1t did, and for, several days
continued to come p, :. e.. -.ls. ...-...
At length it occurred to the homesick
slave that the stork would soon be flying
north again and like an inspiration came
the thought that by means Of the bird he
could send a message which might pos
sibly fall into the hands of friends.
He wrote few lines on a bit of tough
paper and bound it fast to the stork's Leg
A few days later the bird disappeared.
One day Mrs. Jonassen noticed the stork,
which had returned to It's nest on the roof,
picking at something on its leg. She fed
the bird, caught it and removed the bit Of
paper. Fancy the mothers feelings when
she found It to be message from her own
son, long since given up for lost.
It would be too long q, story to tell Of
the interest Of the, parish of the money
raised. the expedition sent to rescue Con-
rad and his mates. All this took place,
however, and Conrad Jonassen came
home. In after years he became a rich
man and did much for the welfare OF his
native town. The stork was never for
gotten, and it is small wonder that it be-
came the emblem Of the Norwegian town.

A PROPHET OF EVIL
The London Mall Says Morgan's Opera
tions Are Reckless.

London, Nov. 1.-THE Daily Mail, in an
article entitled consequences Of Nor
ganism," says J. Pierpont Morgan $
operations have been carried out with
such a degree Of recklessness that they
seem almost to have succeeded in achiev-
ing the impossible and shaking the credit
of the United States.
The Mail considers the concerns hoated
by Morgan are bound inevitably, sooner
or later, to end as Hooley's companies
have ended, and declares that vast
amount Of money, most Of which has been
entrusted to banks and trust companies
by the American public, is locked up in
them. The effects Of these unsound
operations, the Mail goes on to say, are
being felt throughout the whole civilized
world. London is suffering as we'll as
the United States. ut Is an unfortunate
fact" concludes the Mail, that though
they excel in many things, the Americans
never seem to have grasped the principles
of sound banking

displaced by electric motors, is much in line
with the general expectation that it will COM
mand large attention. The application of cleo
tricity to traction. lighting and heating is still
in it's infancy. This is chiefly for the reason
that electricity is not sufficiently abundant and
cheap. owing to slow progress in Harvesting wa
terfalls and utilizing cheap coal for its pro
duction. When every waterfal in Piedmont
country and every coal mine has electric genera
tors close by, with which to supply the needs Of
villages and cities, near and remote, then cleo
tricity will tend to realize Mr.. Edison's predic
ton. At present we haul coal TO the electric
generator; what we need to do is to carry the
generator to the mouth of the mine and usa
cheap coal that now goes to waste.

THE FUND.
Trustee r. M. Bradley Makes a State
ment in Regard to Expenditures and
the Work Undertaken.

To the Editor of the Phoenix.
Dear Sir:-In the statement of accounts
regarding the Thompson fund. recently
published in the Reformer, there are one
or two points, that, published without
would be misleading, and to pre-
vent this, we ask the favor of your col
umns
The account covers the first six months
of the trust, and during hat time ar
rangements for the use of the money had
10 be made before any money was spent;
the amount of money used is, therefore.
very small in proportion to the size of the
trust. 1t is important for the future
character and prosperity of Brattlehoro.
that this work should not be done in that
easy. rapid way that would bring imme-
date credit and SOW seeds of future evil.
How difficult a task his is. it Is hard for
anyone to realize. without knowing the
details of the faithful, careful work that
has been done by the two ladies who
have undertaken it. details whose nature
must of necessity forbid their becoming
matters of public knowledge.
| feel certain that no one would wish tc
make this task more difficult by uninten-
tionally creating any misunderstanding
as to the work that they have done. Al
the time that this account was filed the
work of these ladies was just begun, an6
it is no indication of the work hat they
have already done, nor of we trust
they will be able to do in the future.
[ think also, Mr.. Editor. that you viii
agree with me that the benefciaries un
der this trust are not properly spoken o'
as objects of charity. During the frs
months of our trusteeship. we received
from all these beneficiaries only one let
ter asking for money, and that was a let
ter from an invalid mother asking tina
her daughter, who was giving up her lf,
TO her care, might be remembered. Thi
fact alone, is sufficient testimony as t,
what these beneiciaries are. There ar
few states or nations where this coul,
ave happened and I truly feel that Their
are few people to whom such a term il
its commonly accepted meaning has les
| application than to these benefciaries.
Much of the work in behalf Of thi
trust is likely to be %misjudged where tn
facts are not fully known. and the trus
tees must ask all persons who feel tempt
ed to pass judgment upon its administra
ton to bear this fact in mind.
Your obedient ervant.

Proctor's Candidacy Has Grown Rapid
GFair Haven Era

The candidacy of Mr.. Proctor has grown
rapidly and has already assumed a prom
inence that BODIES i'll for other candidates.
just at present the contest has a good
deal the look of the one four years ago,
when Gen. Mccullough for a time until
the entrance into the campaign of Ed
ward G. Smith, appeared to ave the en-
tire field to himself. The announcement
that Mr.. Smith was a candidate quickly
turned the tide and left the general
stranded high and dry upon the shore.
\ consideration of the implied wishes of
the people induced him to pun out and
Mr.. Smith was unanimously nominated.
Cen. Mccullough and his hackers have
decided upon a different plan of cam
paign for 1902 and will, it is understood
be in the fight, from start to finish.
Four years of planning and preparation
should give Gen. Mccullough quite an
advantage over the candidate that comes
in at this late day, Were it anyone but
Fletcher ID. Proctor the chances are he
would continue to maintain it. Asst is, it is a
doubtful fight from the start with chances
in favor of the Vermonter. 1t has the
promise of being n pretty contest and
each foreman will find the other worthy
IF his steel.
