Died in CHICAGO

The body of F. R lander, a former
WatertOWn man, is awaiting the
claim of relatives now being sought
by the local police and Chicago I'M
dertaker. The man died in a Chi
cago hospital and while delirious
stated that his mother resided in Wa
tertown and that his name was Fan
der. The fact that he said his moth
er resided here leads to the belief
that he is one of the lander boys,
probably Frank, who lett here many
years ago, as his mother has been
dead some time. He is a brother Of
Robert Zander, who is supposed to be
working at Beloit.
The dead man had a large sum of
money on his person and was also in

A CLEvfR SWINDI Err
WORKING FARMERS
A CRIMINAL WARRANT ISSUED
FOR HIS ARREST
Claimed to Represent LdrgS De-
pdrtment Store in Chicago
FrduduIcntly Obtained Sigma
lures to What is Supposed to Be
Orders Which Turned to Be Notes

An object lesson in trading at home
with your own merchants was
taught in portions Of Dodge county
recently where a stranger pulled the
wool over the eyes of several resi-
dents and got away with their money.
In telling Of the matter the Juneau
Independent says:
Sheriff W. r. Miller has in his pos
session a criminal warrant for the
arrest of +. Krieg, the man who re
Gently worked this vicinity, repre-
senting himself to be an agent of a
Chicago department store, and swim
died many farmers in the towns of
Oak Grove and Lowell The com
plant is sworn to by /. p. Wolf of the
town Of Lowell and charges Krieg
with fraudulently obtaining the sigma
ture of Wolf to a paper purporting to
be an agreement to purchase mer-
chandise to the amount Of $48, which
paper later turned out to be a negotia-
BILE promissory note for that amount.
Krieg, who made his headquarters
in this city while canyassing the ter
IILOI Ill WHICH, lt ODCI dltI, WOl hGu
one of the most clever and extensive
sWindles ever sprung on farmers of
Dodge county 1t appears that I-rieg
made canvass among farmers in the
vicinity of Oak Grove and Lowell
representing himself as an agent Of
department store in Chicago, doing
business under the firm name of Con-
sumers' Merchandise Co. 173 East
Adams street He carried a large
catalogue and claimed that in order to
get established ana to undersell other
department concerns, he was to auth
orize about ten people in each town to
purchase any goods that they might
want, listed in the catalogue, at a dis
count of forty per cent. from list
prices, the list prices being already
lower than the list price of other de-
partment stores.
In order that they might take adj
vantage of this special privilege it
was necessary for them to agree to
purchase $48 worth of goods before
next January /, and sign an agree
ment that they would so purchase $48
worth of goods before January l. In
stead of signing such an agreement
he had his victim sign a negotiable
promissory note, which he immediate
ly cashed at the nearest bank that
would purchase the same. 1t is
known that in the neighborhood of
twenty-five people were victimized in
this manner.
In the case of Mr.. Wolf, the articles
enumerated i'll the complaint, which
were selected from the catalogue and
which it is alleged Krieg falsely repre-
sented he would furnish, include a
suit of clothes, plow, truck wagon,
a stack canvass and a grass seeder.

SDrunQ a Leak AGAIN

The leak in the water main in the
river at North Fourth street bridge,
which was discovered sometime ago,
was opened wider by the direct pres
sure used at the time of the Buroff
fire and it has been found necessary
to shut off the water at the south end
of the bridge as the waste was SO
great that it seriously reduced the
pressure in the tower.
Mayor Mulberger issued orders to
have the water pipe plugged at the
south side of the river and in case of
fire north of the bridge the hose will
be attached on the south side.
The water board is trying to secure
the services of diver to fix the
main but until one can be secured
the present condition will prevail
