TRIED GRAFT ON
MARION PEOPLE
c. r. MERRY, PROMOTER or DA-
koTA SOUTHERN RAILWAY
CO., AFTER MARION RUsl.
NESS MEN RECENTLY.

Marion Sentinel: C. Frederick
Merry, Of Chicago, who is supposed
to be the same c. F. Merry who served
several months in the Jail at Dickinson
for securing money under false pre-
lenses In connection with q proposed
line OF railroad from Dickinson to Het-
finger, and who has since worked his
graft at Binford, m. D., and other
places in the Dakotas, paid Marion a
visit last Sunday, and prospects looked
so promising that he remained over
until Monday morning But Marion
people read the papers andShad heard
Of this smooth gentleman before and
consequently were not buying railroad
stock that day.
His card reads c. Frederick Merry,
President Dakota Southern Railway
Co., Chicago, Ill. Though he may alter
his name and the name of his COM
pany, he always works the same game.
As usual he wanted to interest a few
local business men, sell them a share
Of preferred stock for 500, and offer
as bonus a certain amount of COM
mon stock for services that would be
Ia bAS arg way ElCss
telling his victims that they would be
let in on the ground floor. He also of
fered to sell the townsite of a town to
be located ten miles south of here for
$4,000, to few of our business men. |
The scheme looked all right, but when |
1t came to coughing up 800 drafts |
they had TO be shown, as they were |
from Missouri; that's why there's |
nothing more doing in Merry's hoteair |
line, and by this time he is most likely |
looking up greener fields.
The road Mr.. Merry had outlined |
and for which he sought audience was
from Englevale to Devils Lake, and |
from there 1t was continued over the |
Farmers line, which according to him
they already controlled. He also stated |
that the company had already pur-
chased fifteen gasoline motors which |
were to be used for local passenger
traffic, while for the heavy freight
trains steam locomotives would be
used.

LOST GIRL FOUND
UNDER The HOUSE
DULUTH GIRL DISCOVERED IN
QUEER HIDING PLACE
THROUGH MOTHERS
DREAM.

Duluth, Mimi, Sept 1S.-Ruthless-
ly dragged from under the house to
which hiding place a dream accord
ing to members of the household, had
directed her mother, a little drama
which Mary Bislow, aged IA, had ap-
parently planned with view to ecIips-
ing her former efforts in that line,
was sorrowfully shattered yesterday.
Missing since Tuesday night she had
caused members of thas9amily mach
worry and incidentally occasione6 The
police some extra duties in watching
out for her in places that it was
thought likely she might have stray
ed.
The girl was literally camping out
under the floor of her own home,
and had managed to fix up quarters
sufficiently so that she was far from
lacking in comforts, at least, so long
as it did not rain too hard. She had
taken bed clothing which had been
hung on the clothesline in the yard
to air and with this had rugged up
very comfortable bed. During the
time that nobody was around and
dII6F QdEk she ndu Sllppeu out from
her hiding place and found enough
to eat to keep her from being hun
cry.
Friday night, so one of the family
said yesterday, Mrs. Bislow dreamed
that the missing girl was under the
house, and while scarcely expecting
to find her there the effect of the
dream was so strong that it fingered
with her when she awoke and she
finally went to explore with the re-
suit that she found Mary as stated.
Just what motive actuated the girl
in disappearing and taking up her
abode under the house could not be
learned. The girl in her recent ex-
plot referred 10, returned home
bleeding from a bullet wound re-
Gently, which she said had been in
flicted by stranger who had shot
at her while in the 500 yards. 1t was
discovered that she had
herself, accidentally or 9TH
erwise, and had been afraid to ad-
NIT it.
