SUSPECT CAPTURED,
Companion Of Man Found Dead in
SMamps Is Captured Mt Osakis.

Fergus Falls, Mimi, March 22.-The
postmortem examination held over the
1emains Of Fred Wagner, whose body
was found in the swamps near the
town of Dunn indicates that Il murder
has been committed. Three bullet
holes were found in the head and
other marks of violence lead the au-
thorities to the opinion that the man
was brutally killed.
Wagner came to this county three
months ago, and with a man named
Albert Schul, had been hired to cut
cordwood. The two lived together in
a samll shanty. Wagner was last seen
week ago. and report had since
been current that he had gone to Can
ada. An examination of the premises
! shows that he had been shot in bed,
the bullet striking just above the eye,
which stunned but did not kill him.
The body had been dragged from the
shanty, and evidences of returning life
apparently alarmed the murderer, who
Fad evidently stamped his head into
the snow and then shot him twice
through the neck. He had then drag
ged the body into the dense tamarack
swamp and buried it under three feet
Of snow, stamping the snow we'll down
on top no doubt thinking the ground
would soon thaw and the remains sink
deep into the morass and disaa pear
forever.
Sehul Is Arrested.
Schul, the man with whom Wagner
was working. gave out the report that
Wagner had gone to Canada, and is
naturally under suspicion. The au-
thorities have been looking for him
and 1t was learned yesterday that he
had bought a ticket for Osakis last
Thursday. Sheriff Albertson found his
baggage at the station there last night,
but supposed he had left it as blind,
as no one in the village seemed to
know him. Albertson left word with
the sheriff there to be on the lookout
and returned home.
At noon today, telegram was re-
ceived from Osakis, to the effect that
Schul had just called for his baggage
and had been placed under arrest. He
will be brought to this city this even
ing and lodged in the Jail here.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseased por
ton of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and
that is by constitutional rene
dies. Deafness is caused by an
intlamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube is inflamed you
have rum bling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is en-
tlrely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tub re-
stored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed for
ever: nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an intlamed condition of
