Consideration of a Thief Re-
suits in His Capture and
Arrest
FUGITIVE FOR TEN WEEKS
John MyreIand Shows Too Much
Thoughtfulness for Victims Jew
elry Stolen at Same Time Has Not
Been Found - Robbed Usage Family
That Befriended Him.
Special to Times-R Republican.

Usage, Oct. 13.-After having shown
ill will, by returning to them by reg
istered mail $500 worth of notes and
deposit certificates, which he had taken
along with s75 in cash and about $3.50
worth of jewelry, John Myreland was
rudely and unkindly arrested at North
wood by Sheriff G. A. Lee.
The theft was a plain, everyday in
stance of a worthy family being
"stung'' by one they had befriended.
Ole Fadness, a farmer living in the
western part of Mitchell county. was
the loser. Myreland; a rather rheumatic
specimen about 40 years old, had been
making his home with them. 1t was
about two and a half months g that
he skipped out with his plumber. He
eel to st. Ansgar, and at an auto
garage there hired a car to take him to
Northwood, twenty miles west. At that
place he took the night train south and
eluded the Officers until now.
He went to Emmetsburg, and from
that point returned the notes n GER
tiflcates by registered mail, giving the
postmaster an assumed name. AS soon
as the papers were received, the offic-
ers were notified, and they ~endeavored
TO have Myreland apprehended at EN-
metsburg, but the postmaster there had
no recollection of the description of
the man who had mailed the letter.
Sunday Myreland returned to North
wood, and vas upon being recognized
by the sheriff, picked up, and thrown
in Jail to await the arrival of Sheriff
Decker, of Usage. He says that he lost
the jewelry, and was robbed of the
money but the officers do not take
much stock in that story.
Some of the pieces of jeWelry were
relics = heirlooms which had been
handed down from generation to gen.
GRAFTON in the Fadness family for a
hundred and fifty years, and were
priced more for the historic connec-
lions associated with them than for
their intrinsic value.
Mr.. Fadness would like very much
to recover them, and an effort will be
made to secure information as to their
present location, and get them returned
Sheriff Decker, of Usage went over
and took charge of Myreland upon re-
ceipt of a message telling of his arrest,
and III will be held to await h action
of the next Mitchell county grand jury.

tives by which to overcome the grade.
One Is to construct a line around the
city, filling and trestling the valley
between the raise north of the city,
and striking the present main line
east and west of jamestown, as was
done at Valley City. This, however,
might prove detrimental to certain
city interests as now situated, as the
depot might be placed at some dis
lance from the center of town, and,
again, the roundhouse might have to
be moved further west to the point
Of connection with the main line.
which would draw business and popu-
Iation away from the city.
The other alternative, as stated by
Mayor Blewett, is a project that the
railroad engineers have been figuring
upon for some time. That is to ele-
vate the present tracks by trestle and
grading, and following the present
main line through the city, thus cut
ting down the expensive grades. The
approaches to the city at both sides
would probably be filled in and the
track be raised upon steel trestle
through the center of town, viaducts
for passage, and the tracks sufficient
| " elevated to give free thorough
to all streets.
The depot under this project would
be near the middle of Jamestown,
trains landing passengers upon the
second floor, as in some large cities,
with probably an elevator for passen.
gers. The expense of such an under.
taking would be enormous, as ii
would probably entail the elevating
of the entire switch yards and it's
miles of tracks. However, should this
project be carried through, James
town would be unique city.
The aldermen, Commercial club and
business men of the city will take W
the matter, as the railroads officials
desire an expression of opinion re
garding the projects.
