The maps of these states i'll which

The United States geological survey

topographic surveying. The bulletin
of the American Geographical society
recently said that this is equal to the
annual mapping of a state nearly the
size of Indiana and greater than Maine
or South Carolina. 1t is an area nearly
equal to that of Portugal and as great
as that of Switzerland and Denmark
combined Yet it is scarcely one one

Grundy Center. Aug. 24.-His natar-

Ludtke, man of mystery, has died
at the Grundy county poor farm. Six
weeks ago he was sent to the county
home. having no one to care for him,
and not being in condition to care for
himself. His commitment was blow
to his pride and he refused to eat only
enough to keep him from actually
starving.
Tho he claimed his age was So, it is
believed that Ludtke was nearly 20.
Ludtke. who has lived in the county
for thirty years, and in Grundy Center
for twenty-nine years. devoted most of
his time to giving lessons in music. He
was a finished musician and gave the
appearance of having been well born
and highly cultured. He is believed to
haze come from a prominent family IN
Holstein, Germany To some of his
friends he admitted that he was the
black sheep of the family and that his
folks sent him away from home. He
came to America because he was prom
ised big salary to play with band In
New York He failed to get this JOB,
however. and came west.
Ludtke would never tell very much
about his past life, but he limited to
those VIII, were c1oSe to him that he
had considerable money stored away.
When he died committee went thru
the belongings of his house. but found
nothing of value. He received money
order for $500 from his home in the old
country about two years ago. If this
money was not spent, no one knows
where it is. Possibly he has wealth
buried somewhere in the county.

Geneva resident and now IN the
FRANKLIN county Jail at Hampton on
a charge of adultery, was accom-

rested Bell was in the company OF
Miss Gladys Hayes, a young woman
Of this city, with whom it is alleged
he eloped.
Bell and the girl were first discov-

learned that the authorities were after
them, fed to Fargo, N. D., where upon
information from here, Bell was ar
rested and returned to Osakis, and
held for two days, but hearing MOTH

The following day the sheriff arrived
at Osakis, but Bell and the girl had
taken wings again. The officer followed
and caught them at Morehead. The
girl followed the sheriff and his pr1s-
;oner to this place yesterday.
At the time Bell left his wife and
four children, he had decided the resi-
dence to his wife and gave her $500
in money. Mrs Bell at once, on
hearing of the elopement, filed charges
against her husband, which it is now
presumed Bell will be held to an

Webster City Man Tries 70 Shoot
Women and Marshal.

Special to Times Republican
Webster City, Aug. 24.-While
drunk last night, Ed ROBBIE, foreman
Of the Graphic Herald office, made
a murderous attempt upon the lives
Of Mrs. E. o. Woodruff and Chief Of
Police Nickerson. He fired upon each
at close range, but missed. He is now
in Jail.
While intoxicated Robbie entered the
home Of Mrs Woodruff A neighbor
lady was with her and the two elected
the man from the home. Several times
he tried to re-enter. but the women
were able to keep him from the house.
Finally the drunken man pulled re-
volver and fired thru the screen door
at the ladies'. A call was sent for
the police and as Chief Nickerson
came into sight, the Infatuated man
also fired upon him. With the aid Of
Constable Filloon, however, ROBBIE was
easily taken and conveyed to the Jail
in the patrol wagon.
