Sheriff A. 3. Hazen returned to
the city Christmas morning from a
trip to a point sixty-fve miles north
of Ely, where he went in search of
Ole Halvorson Bake, who is much
wanted by the sheriff's office, because
of several shooting escapades in
which Bake terrorized his relatives
and came near ending the earthly
career of his wife. Sheriff Hazen
had been given information that
seemed very reliable that Bake was
at a point north Of Ely, the descrip-
ton of the man which was sent to
the sheriff tallying exactly with
Bakke's appearance; but when Mr..
Hazen reached the man, after a
difficult trip, it was found that he
was not Bake, and the trip had been
a useless one.
