William Oliver was brought
before Justice Martin Monday
afternoon charged with grand
larceny in the first degree for
the theft Of ninety dollars from
|one Irvine. In the absence Of
County Attorney Street, John
Gibbons appeared for the state
and 4. FL. Bailey for the defense
It appears that Irvine had sold
his team at Blackduck last Thurs
day for ninety dollars and in
tended to go to Bemidji that
evening. During the day he was
approached by Oliver, and with
little persuasion was induced to
participate in a few sips OF ex-
hilarating fluid, and by the time.
the train was ready to pull out
for Bemidji he was in a semi
comatose state, due to the after
effects In some manner, which
he could not account for in the
court room, the ninety dollars
had been transferred from his
pocket to his right hand, when
oliver generously offered to
"keep" the money for him until
they reached Bemidji. tits sup
posed that Irvine consented to
this, for when he awoke at Turtle
the money was gone and SO was
OLIVER.
When he reached here he
promptly swore out a warrant
for the arrest Of oliver, and
Sheriff Bailey arrested him the
following day. There was a
wordy duel between the two
legal lights, and when the justice
summed up the evidence he found
that the defendant was lacking
just forty days to even up things,
so he was convicted of petit lar
ceny and sentenced to the county
iail for the above e-mentioned term,

BILL POSTERS REBEL.
Refuse to Advertise BOer Re-
ception in Berlin.

Berlin, Oct 15.-General Botha has
telegraphed to the reception committee
that the Boer generals will arrive here
Thursday, but as their presence is
necessary in England they must leave
Berlin Saturday.
The government is discouraging the
Boer reception committee in various
ways. The police will not permit the
proposed procession to pass through the
Brandenburg gate doubtless because it
is near the British embassy. The bill
posters who have the monopoly OF the
cityso advertising. on the pillars have
broken their contract and refuse to put
up any more placards advertising the
reception of the Beers. 1t is intimated
that the reason for this action on the
part of the bill posters is they received
a secret hint from the police to cease
advertising the @entErt inment. The
government seems deter mined to pre-
vent the slightest derno7lstra ton that
might be construed as Offensive to Great
Britain. d,

In the afternoon they drove around the

home in the Transvaal surrounded by
trees and stock; second, a snap shot of
the house in flames; third the smould-
ering ruins of the generals home. Mrs.
Botha said:
This first picture shows us before
English civilization; the second depicts
US during the process of civilization and
the third represents US after English
civilization has been extended to u.s."
This incident indicates the real senti-

proposition was submitted by the league
to the association and the association
appointed a committee to investigate
the matter and report at the next an

The Protective association has a secret
way of notifying its members when
there is job on hand to do.
Il can't tell you how we do it, said
Andy Loughrey, of Clay county, Mis-
souri,, but an hour after a farmers
horse is missed every member of the
association within a radius of ten miles
knows it and is on the lookout. A thief
stands no show whatever unless he
steals horse early in the night and
makes long, hard ride or drive during
the night
The sheriffs and other peace officers
have found the Protective association
great assistance to them in preserving
order and hunting down criminals" said
Sheriff Larzelere, of Doniphan county,
who helped to entertain the visitors
Crime decreases in rural communities
as soon as branch lodges are organized.
Lawbreakers live in deadly fear of the

arrests for crime in rural districts are
brought about through the agency of
these aid associations.
