Two Are Arrested

The police arrested A. Kortti and
J. Salajarvi yesterday afternoon and
later turned the men over to the sher-
iff. The two men are wanted on a
charge OF assaulting Matt Walquist
last Sunday morning at an early hour.
A third man, Joe Terva, is also want
ed but could not be found yesterday.
Kortti and Salajarvi were locked up
in the county jail and will be arraign-
ed today Kortti says that was his
real name in the old country, but that
he goes by the name of Andrew John
son in this country. 1t is said to be
somewhat doubtful that Walquist will
want to prosectuethe case, but a strong
eaort will be made to have him do so,
as the authorities are tired of the dis
position shown by certain OF the
foreign born residents who make
every effort to hush such matters up
outside of the courts. Walquist was
severely cut up. 1t it understood

Burglar Escapes

Officer Houghton while making his
round last night about midnight got
sight OF burglar in Rolston's shoe
store, but the man who ever he was
saw the officer first and made his
escape through a back window where
he gained entrance. Mr. Houghton
says that last night as usual he tried
the door OF the shoe store to satisfy
himself that it wa locked, and as he
placed his hand on the knob of the
door he noticed a light inside but
didn't think much of it at the time,
supposing that some one of the firm
was doing little overtime work,
when at the same time a man passed
before his view making bolt for the
back part OF the store, where he made
good his escape. This quick move
ment on the mans part aroused the
suspicion of the officer and he imme-
diately went around to the back part
of the store to investigate. After a
little difficulty owing to the dark he
found one of the back windows brok-
en- where the burglar got in. Luckily
the officer arrived on the scene in
the nick Of time, before the robber
had a chance to steal anything. An
investigation is being made and
the man may yet be caught.
