ATTEMPT TO KIDNAP
FOlLED AT ALBERT LEA
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Albert Lea, Mimi, Aug. 5.-A bold
attempt at kidnapping has just come
to light here. Late yesterday after
noon the 4-year-old son of Register
of Deeds Anderson and the 5-year-old
stepdaughter of Alert Land could not
be found, and a search revealed the
fact that a stranger, appearing to be
a tramp, coaxed them away to a lone
ly place on the promise of giving
them money. He left the little boy
and took the little girl and told her to
remain until he returned, and it is
supposed he had been hired to lure
the girl away SO she could be stolen.
Another little girl heard the children
crying and went to their rescue. The
little girls face was bleeding and she
said the man struck her. No arrests
have been made and the description
of the stranger is deficient.

in this county are well into the harvest
fields. Most of the barley has been
cut. Of this there is a big crop and a
fine one. Oats are ripening rapidly
and are big crop. Some fields Of bar.
ley have been threshed and the yield
runs from twenty-five to thirty five
bushels an acre. Wheat Is maturing
nicely, tho some fields show signs Of
rust and some blight. The acreage of
this grain is the smallest for many
years. Macaroni wheat has not done
well owing to too much moisture.
