the sentence.
Since his escape he has
gone by the name of James
Brown.
Last year he worked for a
farmer in Dickey, county,
North Dakota, at $40 a
month and was working for
the same man this summer
at $35 a month.
Last winter he learned
the barber trade at the Mo-
| Ter barber school in Mime
apolis where he worked un-
til spring.
He had heard nothing of
the Todd affair until the
first of July. He had not
been home since a year ago
the 18th of last June nor
heard from his folks during
that time.
When he learned that his
brother John was charged
| with the Todd murder and
that he too was charged
with the same crime he de-
cided to come back and con-
vince all of his innocence
who might wish to investi-
| gate.
He claims to have led an
upright life since lis escape
from Sioux Falls and to have
the confidence and good
will of the Minneapolis and
North Dakota people who
knew him as James Brown.
He is smooth Shaven and
resembles John who is out
on bail charged with the
Todd affair.
There is no doubt but his
return, with a complete alibi
and conclusive record of his
whereabouts during the last
year, will have an import
| ant bearing in Johns case,
| for it has hardly been held
against the latter that he
| killed Todd, but that Elmer,
outlaw and william of the
most reckless type, as paint
ed in poster and circular,
committed the crime, later
to have the less hardened in
crime brother make south
with the team and booty.
So fierce was the desire
to catch Elmer, the sup
posed perpetrator of the
Johnson and Todd murders,
that hundreds of dollars
have been spent in securing
| the United States and Can
ada for him-he, as believ-
ed, the most reckless and
vicious of all highwaymen.
The Sheriffs OF Jerauld and
Sanborn counties made a trip
to California for him, but
the clue was false.
1t is probable that Elmer
shaved some of the sleuths in
the Minneapolis barber shop
last winter who were hunt
/
ing him, in whose pockets
were his picture, on which
was printed in big letters.

Business Openings.

1t seems to me that the man with a
small cap tai can find no better oppor-
tunity for Investment and for the es-
tablishment of small business than
in some of the many growing towns of
the Northwest.
The Great Northern railway issues a
booklet Business Openings which
adequately and comprehensively de-
scribes the needs of the many towus
along its lines and contains a detailed
list of the business openings afforded
the man with limited means as we'll as
the big investor do not know of q
section Of the country which offers
such limitless opportunities to the man
who is content to live in new coun-
try. The fact that in nearly every
state of the northwest there is an
available supply for almost every form
Of manufacture, offers to the manu-
facturer chance to operate close to
the supply of raw material.

Bonds.

Bonds.
st. Paul-State Treasurer j illus 81.
Block has under consideration rec
ommendation to the board of invest
ment of the sale of all or part of the
states holdings Of the Virginia bonds.
Mr. Block is Investigating the proba-
BILE price that these bonds would bring
in case they were offered for sale.
The state holds So, AS, 900 of these
bonds, and all except $50, 900 of them
mature in 1901, with an option on the
part of the state of Virginia to redeem
them at par after 1906. Mr. Block is
now corresponding with the authori-
ties of Virginia to ascertain what pro-
portion of them, If any, they expect to
redeem. These bonds bear interest at
the rate of 8 per cent, payable semi
annually.
There is a great demand for loans
from the state-from our own school
districts, municipalities and counties
houses, court houses, constructing
| drainage bitches, etc, and it is at pres
ent impossible to supply all these calls.
This is particularly true of the north
ern partsof the state, which is rapidly
developing. These loans pay the state
! 4 per cent interest, or 1873 per cent
more than the Virginia bonds bring.
Mr.. Blocks object in this disposition
of the bonds is thus not only to aid the
municipalities and school districts in
our own state, but it would also result
in much greater revenue to the state
school, university and other trust
funds, now holding these bonds.

Less Aid,

Owing to the fact that the last legis-
lature largely increased the number of
rural schools to secure state aid with
out increasing the appropriation, the
rural schools will this year receive con-
siderably less than the 1925 each,
which is the regular amount granted.
The legislature provided that a Ger
tain class of rural schools which do not
employ first grade teacher shall have
$50 aid each. This money must come
out of the $1,000 appropriated as aid
for first grade schools, and will accord

pr1TsBuRo, July 2i.-Affairs Of the Pitts
burg Coal Company are still in troublous
,,ste President +. L. Robbins. when
asked concerning the report that Col. j. b.
Finley would be asked to assume the preei-
dency Of the company, said that the annual
election of the corporation would be held
In February, and that there had never been
ny friction among the directors and officers
Of the company.
4 can see no reason for any such rlmor
being circulated, he said, unless it be
used to further the cause OF some short
interest in the stock.
Stockholders are particularly wrought up
over the report that $425 600 year interest
was paid by the company on liability
that never really existed. When the
t,5cO 0OO bond issue was made, in COM
pletine the details for it the trust company,
It is said, stipulated that "a, 500 600 OF the
bonds should be deposited as security Tor
the stockholders of the River Coal Com
rany. who sold their shares to the P1ttsburg
company. This compelled the latter COM
ny to pay interest os on the had
surrendered their stocks and taken non
interest bearing notes.
Thus. combining the $4,000 900 deposited
rs security for the debentures and - 800 600
deposited as security for River Coal stocks,
the Pittsburg Coal Company was compelled
TO nav interest to the amount OF $425OOO
4 year on liability that had really not
been incurred Had this not been paid
last year it would have given the company
q total surplus of $4,000. Add this to
the net earnings Of the past quarter. APP
proxlnatey $27O, 600, and there would be
ls45,oOO, enough to have paid the regular
quarterly dividend and left a surplus FOR
the next one, though during the current
quarter there is little question OF the divi-
dend being earned
or the bond issue made last year 81 600 900
has come due and been paid, and the usual
provisions made for another payment OF
the same amount next January. However,
the bonded Indebtedness now stands at
t5,OOO 0Oo Added to this is a floating in
debtedness of 50, OO0, 900 incurred since this
bond issue, ma king the total SIS, 900 900.
Contrary to various reports, it is declared
tlat the company is in good position as TO
ready cash. Its entire plant, including
docks, mines and undeveloped lands, is
worth s15OOO,OOO, in this estimate being
also included the actual cash on hand,
though experts who made thorough ex-
animation Of the property last December
estimated its worth at SOL 900 900. How
ever, it can safely be estimated at the former
figures, and deducting from this the amount
OF the total indebtedness there remains for
the stockholders $i7 900 600 worth OF prop
