Nels Sundby, a Duluth employment
agent, sent message just two hours
late to get share in the reward Of
$500 by the state for the arrest and

shack in Lake county for a 81 check

possession. The murderer disappear
ed, but when Gov. Van SAINT had offer
ed a reward of $500 for information
leading 70 his arrest and conviction, the
authorities of three counties combined
to pick him up at Hibbing.
Yesterday four rival claimants for
the reward stated their claims to Gov
Johnson. The hearing lasted for some
hours, and last night Gov. Johnson said
he had decided to give Jesse Harry, the
marshal of Grand Rapids, who had To-
Gated the murderer at Hibbing and
wired the fact to Sheriff Emil Nelson
at Two Harbors, the long end of the
money. Peter Wiring, marshal of Hib-

MUSIC IN CAPITOL
Third Regiment Band of Duluth
Serenades Gov. johnson

The new statehouse received its mu-
steal baptism yesterday, when the
Third Regiment band. Duluth, sere-
naded Gov. Johnson in the capitol ro-
tunda. The marble structure and the
band both came in for admiration
from the throngs of capitol visitors.
The Third Regiment band which
left last night for Washington with
the Roosevelt club, gave a concert of
six numbers in the big rotunda of the
capitol. 1t played both classical and
popular airs, and its excellent music
was heard to the best advantage un-
der the huge capitol dome. Strains of
martial music filed the arched corr!-
doris and penetrated with distinctness
to every corner and Granny of the big
building. Possibly the best points of
vantage were the galleries surrounding
the rotunda. Here crowds congre-
gated, and Director Flaaten never
played to a more enthusiastic audi
enee. The band, attired in natty rough
rider uniforms, marched to and from
the capitol headed by Maj. Michael C.
McGuffin of st. Paul as drum major.
