An Elusive Crook

Wednesday night suspicious appear
ing character, who had been compelled
by the police to leave town several
days previous, appeared upon the
streets and was promptly collared by
Officer Gruby. The prisoner did not
seem to relish the idea Of being 'jug-
ged" and while the officer was escort
ing him to the local bastile, he sud-
denly wrenched loose and darted down
side street. Gruby shouted for him
to stop, and as the fellow did not do
so, he fired several shots in the air,
but the shooting appeared to give
speed to the fellows legs and he darted
down the street like frightened deer.
Chief of Police Martin had noticed Mr..
Gruby escorting the prisoner and when
he heard the shots fired he instantly
OWNED what had occurred, and press
ing an automobile into service he made
a quick run down railroad avenue and
captured the elusive individual just as
he was emerging from a side street
near the F. H. Russell residence.
The fellow had returned to Webster
with the expressed determination to
create row, and had boosted that
there was not an officer in Dakota that
could arrest him. He has, however,
revised that opinion. He was taken
before Police Justice Harris this morn
ing and was given four days in the city
jail with diet of bread and water.

WAS STUNG PROPER
The Reporter and Farmer Gets a
Bad Jolt Last Week.
RAILROAD GONE GLIMMERINC
The Promoter Seems to Have
Been a Very Shrewd Con-
fidence Man and We
Were Taken Into Camp.

Away along early in the spring we
began to hear rumors of new railroad
through Day county. We have been
hearing these rumors for many years
and had steeled ourselves against get
ting excited any more on the first prov
ocation. But the noise kept growing
stronger. From various localities came
the news that they had been visited by
representatives of the new road who
were endeavoring to secure the right of
way, townsites and other concessions
usually sought by new roads. So good
did these things sound that we began
to be more credulous.
Along in April or May Captain Fred
Myrn, as he is known through this sec.
ton put in an appearance. lie was a
very mysterious gentleman at first as
all railroad men are. He hired auto
mobiles to drive him to the southern
part of the county. He was then at
work for several weeks on the line
north from Webster away up into
North Dakota. He was making con-
tracts of all kinds and the road began
to look like sure enough railroad. Last
week he got us in proper. He filed his
plats for the new road in the county
offices and also sent plats to Codington
and Marshall counties. He then got us
for heart to heart talk and the way
he strung US was nobody's business.
But he had the credentials to substan-
tate his story. All he got from us was
a favorable comment upon the pros
poets of the new railroad. We are
informed that he made the story Sc
ROSY to others that he secured their
money. We stuck by our impressions
until we were handed the following tel.
egram, which explains itself and which
we hasten to give to the public to cor
rect any possible boost we have giver
him with our people:
Hettinger, N. D., Aug. g.
Chief of Police, Webster, S. ID.
/ have warrant of arrest for Charles
F. Merry, wanted here for getting
money under false pretense; formerly
lived at Dickinson, N. ID. He is about
forty-five years old, medium height,

hair. Advise he is in your town OF
community under name Of Captain FREQ
Myrn promoting railroad scheme. He
is an old confidence man and badly
wanted. Take him into custody anC

S137.OO Per Acre

One hundred and thirty-seven dollars
and fifty cents per acre is the price
that David HOWE gets for his 120-acre
farm three miles northwest of Sioux
Falls. This is believed to be the high
est price ever paid for land for farm
purposes in Minnehaha county or even
in South Dakota.
| Mr.. HOWE has owned this land for
about six years. He first bought forty
acres and then purchased additional
tracts until he had all told one hundred
and twenty acres.
The purchaser of the land is William
Mosholder, who recently sold his farm
which is only mile from the HOWE
farm for SIP. so per acre, and now he
turns around and purchased the HOWE
farm for $137.5 so per acre.
Besides getting the top price for the
land Mr.. HOWE retains this years
crops and does not have to give posses
sion to the land until the first of next
month.
When seen about the sale by an Argus
Leader reporter Mr.. HOWE stated that
he had made no arrangements for the
future. The sale was one of those that
came off Unexpectedly and Mr.. HOWE
has until next March to make new
arrangements, and it is a safe guess
that he will again become resident of
Sioux Falls.
The price paid for this land speaks
well for the future of Minnehaha
county. The land being purchased by
an old resident of the county shows his
faith in the future of the country. -

Drainage Ditch Completed

The drainage ditch draining the
sloughs on the Waddle, Schultz, Ander-
son and Sikkink farms through Schultz
creek into Waubay lake has been COM
pleted, and the water from the sloughs
is now running down the creek at a
rapid rate. The ditch was constructed
by the Gould Ditching Co., and is a
success in every way.
1t is estimated that about four hun
dred acres will be drained by this ditch
and as most of this land can be cult
waited in year or two the ditch will
prove good investment for the owners
of the land.

A BAD FREIGHT WRECK
West Bound Freight Jumps the
Track Near Bristol
FIFTEEN CARS SMASHED UP
Wreck Supposed to Have Been
Cause by Breaking of the
Trucks of a Freight Car.
Train Crew Uniniured

Early this morning west-bound
freight was wrecked near the ID. C.
Kidder place, four miles this side of
Bristol, fifteen cars being thrown from
the track.
The wreck is supposed to have been
caused by the breaking of the trucks on
a car short distance behind the
engine. The train was on adown grade
and travelling along at pretty good
speed when the accident occurred. The
train crew were in the caboose at the
time, and as the caboose and three or
four cars at the rear end of the train
were not thrown from the track the
crew. escaped without more serious
injury than a severe shaking up and
few bruises.
Every one of the fifteen cars that
went into the ditch was loaded with
merchandise for the Pacific coast.
The cars were smashed and piled in
heaps, many of them being literally
smashed to pieces, and the merchandise
was strewn along the ground for sew
eral hundred yards. About four hun
dred yards of track was torn up.
The wreck is so situated that it is
practically impossible to build a tenn
porary track around it, but the wreck
ing crew are at work and will have the
debris cleared away and the track
open some time tomorrow. In the
meantime the railroad company is trans
ferring passengers, express matter and
mail around the wreck in wagons.

AUTOISTS IN TROUBLE
Enforcement of New Ordinance
Starts Something.
FOUR ARRESTS ALREADY
One Found Guilty, One Plead
Guilty, One Dismissed, One
Found "Not Guilty" is
the Weeks Record.

The new automobile ordinance, which
was passed by the council recently and
became law last week after its pub
lieation in the official paper, has been
causing considerable excitement for
everybody in the few days it has been
the law of Webster.
Last Friday evening G. D. Peterson
stopped his machine in front of his
office and had it facing the wrong way
to comply with the ordinance. He was
so informed by Police Gruby and asked
to turn it in the other direction in the
future. Mr., Peterson informed Mr..
Gruby that he would do as he pleased
about the matter. In fact he was so
very coarse after the officer had
attempted to give him the best of it
that there was nothing left but to
pinch him for violation of the ordi-
nance. This was done by Mr.. Gruby
and he was taken before Police Justice
Harris last Friday evening. His trial
was set for Monday morning. When
time came for trial on Monday Mr..
Peterson took a change of venue to
Justice Strandness' court.
The case came up for trial in the
afternoon and after listening to all the
arguments and the evidence the court
found the defendant guilty and SEN
fenced him to pay fine of ten dollars
and costs.
Mr.. Peterson at first gave notice of
appeal. He then went among the
owners of automobiles of the city to
see if they would assist him in the
expense of testing the ordinance. Not
meeting with much encouragement, he
decided to pay his fine.
This would have been all right if he
had let the matter drop there but he
did not. The fact that the other
owners of machines did not seem
inclined to assist him in getting out of
the trouble which he had unnecessarily
brought upon himself seemed to anger
him and he Immediately began a cam
paign for the making of trouble for
everyone whom he could see was not
complying with the letter of the ordi-
nance. On Tuesday he swore out a
complaint against Charley Long. Char
ley says he had not become accustomed
to the ordinance and had violated it and
therefore went before the magistrate,
plead guilty" and was fined five dol
lars.
Gil's thirst for vengeance was not
satisfied with the one case. He there
fore swore out warrant against Dave
Bronson and he was summoned before
the court. The trial was set for We'd
nesday morning. Mr.. Bronson's attor-
made motion that the prosecuting
witness be compelled to put up bonds
for costs. Justice Harris sustained the
motion. Gil was evinently not so sure
of conviction so he refused to put up
bonds for the costs and Mr.. Bronson
was dismissed.
Smarting under his defeat and the
fact that he could not make the courts
pull his chestnuts out of the fire, Gil's
anger arose still higher and he went
out and looked up sure thing case.
He then demanded and secured war
rant for the arrest of Alvin Compton.
When heralded before the justice, Mr..
Compton, by his attorney, demanded
that the prosecuting witness put up
bonds for costs. The justice approved

A Successful Entertainments

Mrs. Beulah (Buck) Collier gave an
entertainment to good sized audience
in the M. IE. church Friday evening.
The program consisted of vocal selec-
tons, reading and representations.
Each number was encored to the echo.
Mrs. Collier made decided hit in her
original sketch "Our Automobile" in
which she impersonated the Ray and
Williams families to the great amuse-
ment of the audience.
The lady proved herself one Of the
most accomplished entertainers and
vocalists that has ever appeared before
a Webster audience. Miss Mabel Will
liams, as accompanist, was all that
could be desired. The closing number
was duet by Mrs. Collier and Mrs.
Donald Mclean. 1t was beautifully
rendered and brought forth the highest
praise from all present.

Will Move Train Crews

1t has been announced that the Mil
waukee company will move the special
train crew, which is stationed at Wau-
bay to assist in getting freights over
the hills, to Summit, and that the coal
ing sheds and one of the water tanks
will also be moved from Waubay to
Summit.
There is much speculation as to what
is the cause of this move, and by some
it is believed that Summit will eventu-
ally be division point. 1t is probable,
however, that the company merely
intends to make Summit the headquar-
tiers for the special train crew.
Twenty-Five men are employed on the
special crew and coaling sheds, and
their removal to Summit will prove
quite serious loss to Waubay.

Injured in Motorcycle Accident

On Sunday Frank Flick and his brother
started to this city on motorcycle,
riding double. When they reached the
Sheelar farm they decided to hit up the
speed little and break the record from
there into town. They went all right
for short way, when bang!-the
machine struck rock or rut and
there was a motorcycle turned turtle
and two boys were dumped into the
road. Frank struck on one of his hands
doubling the fingers back to the wrist
and receiving many other painful injur-
les. DR.. Herman dressed the injured
member, but it will be some time
before it will be a well hand. The
other boy escaped practically uninjured.
The record still remains intact.

Sells Railroad Eating House

Ery Stage, who has conducted the
railroad eating house at Waubay for
several year, last week sold out his

doubtless make a success of their VEN
ture.

GERMAN FOOLS SESSION.
Saengerbunders to Hold Annua
Fun Carnival This Evening,

One of the most laughable Of the many
entertainments provided during the year
for their members and guests by the
German societies of the District is what
is known as the Fools Session. when
matters of the gravest concern are dis
cussed and disposed of in ludicrous
manner and nobody ever gets angry.
Tonight the Washington Saengerbund,
recognizing the fact that at some time
or other in his life every man does
something foolish, will celebrate it's fools
carnival. with feast and song and
speeches innumerable. Not only will
the weaknesses and idiosyncrasies Of its
own members and their guests be the
butt Of ridicule in an apparently serious
vein. but even national affairs will un-
dergo the ordeal of those who can ap-
humorous side. In other words, the
Saengerbund will give itself over to fun
both fast and furious during the entire
evening, and there will be fully or
ganized fools court, with a presiding
fool justice, who will pass upon every
matter and mete out justice, either as a
reward or a penalty, upon every one who
may be drawn into the whirlpool of lev
lily.
The committee in charge consists Of
Albert Lepper, Charles H. Bauman, r.
Brauner, P. F. Brandstedt, Fred Carl,
Herbert Levy, q. Pauls, r. Pluym, III.
Rothschild and II. Scheuermann The
fools bailiffs are j. r. Adams and H. c.
Minister. Hofpellmeister Donchs or
chestra will discourse foolish music.
