five YEARS FOR
CHANGING LABELS
CREAMERY MAN MADE ALTERATIONS
WHICH have LANDED HIM IN
IOWA PRISON FOR S YEARS.

Bowman, N. d., March Ill.
G. Geister, sheriff of O'Brien
county, Iowa, arrived at this place
and took into custody A. d. Rose
boom who was sentenced by the
court of O'Brien county to serve q
term of five years in the penitenti-
ary at Fort Madison on a charge
of grand larceny.
Rozeboom formerly operated q
creamery at Hartley, Iowa. It
was the custom of the railroad COM
pany to run two refrigerator cars
each week through Hartley for the
accommodation of the creamery
men along the line and the car ar
rived at this town early in the
morning. Rozeboom got in the
habit of entering the car and
scratching off the labels on the but
ter tubs and stamping them with
his own stencil and would make
his shipping bill correspond. He
continued this kind of work for
nearly three years before he was
detected and was finally caught in
the act. The railroad company
had him arrested on the charge of
stealing three tubs of butter. The
jury found him guilty and sent
enced him to a term of five years
in the penitentiary. The defend
ant appealed the case to the su-
preme court and on February 8
the case was heard and the judges
later upheld the decision of the
lower court. He filed papers for
a new hearing but in the meantime
came here, arriving on February
% Sheriff j. j. Moore was noti-,
fed to take the prisoner into Gus
tody and Sheriff Geister arrived!
this week and took Rozebo0m to
the penitentiary at Fort Madison.
Mr.. Rozeboom first came out
here a year ago and bought q sec
tion of land two miles north OF
town and had considerable in crop
last year. He remained here un-
til November and said he was go
ing to South America on visit.
The railroad company estimates
that Rozeboom stole nearly S., 600
worth of butter before he was
caught and the detectives we're de-
tailed or the case nearly three
years before they were successful
in getting him. He was accom-
panied here by his brother who
was decided over his interests in
this county and it was the belief OF
Sheriff Geister that Rozeboom was
trying to make his escape.

ICE GORGE STOPS
ALL n. P: TRAINS
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS DAMAGE DONE
BY The RISING MISSOURI RIVER
r. TRAFFIC Is BLOCKED.
Bismarck, N. d., March IA

OlSuudTCh, ~. ~, NoAC A1'
The ice went out of the Missouri
river at this point this morning,
being the earliest date of the open
ing of the river in the memory of
the white man. For time after
the river opened, the ice ran freely
but about 9 o'clock an ice gorge
began to form and in few hours
had caused thousands of dollars
worth of damage.
The steamer Expansion was
aground between the shore and the
moving ice and is an entire wreck.
The Bismarck, Washburn and a
number of barges are in danger
and the warehouse of the Benton
Packet company is flooded. A
large number of Northern Pacific
dirt cars ready for shipment to
points on the extension of the
road, have been foated off down
the river and a number of large
engine boilers, also the property
of the Northern Pacific, are under
water. The track at the west ap-
proach to the only bridge the
Northern Pacific has across the
Missouri river, Is under five feet
of water for a distance Of two miles
and there Is h6 possibility of trains
moving in either direction for at
least twenty-four hours and if the
ice jam does not break inside of
twelve hours it is liable to weaken
the support to the bridge to an
extant that will take week or
more to repair.
Two coast trains are being held
at Mandan and one here and the
number will be doubled before
midnight.
At Mandan the water, from the
Heart river has backed up and the
business part of town has been
flooded. The basement of the
Inter- Ocean hotel, the Mandan
Mercantile company and the North
ern Pacific shops being entirely
under water.
Deer are being driven from the
brush along the river into the open
and the Mandan and Bismarck Gun
clubs have stationed guards along
the river to protect the animals
from hunters. On the Bismarck
side of the Missouri the water is
rising rapidly, in places at the rate
>of ten inches per hour. There
will be no danger of water getting
into the business or residence part
of Bismarck as the city is more
than forty feet above the banks of
the river.
