TWO HARBORS, MINN.-Flitting like a
wrath over the swamps. thru the woods and
along the highways in northern st. Louis county
a man clad In long tattered garment and with
an abundant growth of long hair and beard
slightly gray has several times of late caused
great fright to travellers and homesteaders.
Men who were going along lonely stretch of
road saw the strange man, who uttered shrill
shrek and looked out from behind a tree be-
side the road just in front Of them. He went
thru many extraordinary contortions, as tho
making faces at them in an effort to scare
them away. Others have given like accounts of
a meeting with the mysterious person. He Is
believed to be Polish miner who was known
to be insane when he disappeared from his
clearinghouse at Chisholm last spring. ~

methods have been made by John Paulson,
