A Minnesota Pioneer Dead,

David A. Adams, for over half a
century a resident of Hutchinson, this
state, died in St. Luke's hospital, St..
Paul, last Thursday. He was born
in the county of Norfolk, England, in
1888 and came to this country in 1854.
In 1854 he enlisted in Company B.,
First Minnesota infantry and served
until the surrender of General Lee.
he was appointed justice of the
peace at the age of 81 and held the
Office until his death at 70, except
only the time spent in the army. He
was town clerk for many years, re-
corder many terms and served as a
member and president of the village
council. In the years 1928 he
served in the state legislature and
later for two years officiated under
Governor John Lind on the board of
equalization. He was president of the
Bank of Hutchinson from the time of
it's establishment.

will be paid for premiums. The
premiums will be liberal and will in.
sure greater competition and more
and better exhibits than at any former
fair.
Now that the society owns it's own
grounds and is permanently improv-
ing the same, and that the state gives
such liberal assistance to bona fde
county agricultural societies-the last
legislature nearly trebled the state
appropriation-there is no reason
why the Mile Laos county fair should
not be one of the best held in northern
Minnesota. A good display of the
products of the farm at the fair,
where it will be viewed by thousands,
is one of the best possible ADVERTISE
ments for a county. We hope every
township in Mile Laos county will be
represented in the exhibits at the
county fair next September.

'Cutworm Destroyer Discovered.


Charley Murray-or rather his son
has made discovery that may prove
valuable to the farmer. The boy,
while walking through the corn6eld
last week, espied Aattish brown
worm about an inch and half long
with cutworm in it's clutches and i'm
meaiately became interested. He
watched the worm and discovered
that it annihilated it's victim, sucked
its plood-or whatever it has in it's
system-and went on search for it's
relatives. In the space of a short
period of time the boy saw it repeat
the operation on four or five other
cutworms and he ran to the house to
apprise his father. Mr.. Murray &C.
companied the boy to the corn6eld
and there saw several other cutworm
assassins industriously at work. To
ascertain whether the destroyers could
tell cutworm at distance, Charley
dug around and found one. He
placed the cutworm a couple of feet
away from one of the other worms
and that chap bounced upon it with
alacrity and quickly killed it.
The destroyer is brownish colored
worm, rather fiat, jointed, and has
powerful mandibles with which it rips
open las prey. Mr.. Murray intends
sending sample of the strange worm
to the state entomologist. If it is
possible to propagate these worms
they should prove a boon to the
farmer.
Joseph Borden was out at Mr..
Murray's place on Sunday and
Charley told him of the discovery his
son had made.

No Celebra ton In Princeton Village.

There will be celebrations at Long
Siding, Elk Lake Park and other
places in this vicinity on the 18th of
July, but there will be no celebration
in Princeton. This is not because the
residents of the village are lacking in
patriotism, but Princeton has the
county fair every year and our people
are perfectly willing that the other
places should have celebrations on
the great national holiday and they
will help them celebrate. The county
fair this year will be the biggest and
best since the organization of the
society. Over 81 900 will be paid out
IN premiums. The premium list and
program will soon be published. ....

KING OF THE YECCS?
DR.. Dumas, Mayor of Cass Lake, is Ar.
rested on Warrant Charging
Arson and Burglary.
Alleged That He is Ringleader of Gang
of Yeggmen Who Have Com
mitted Many Crimes.

{
sherltf's posse, aided by Pinkerton
detectives, and yeggmen at Puposky,
l6 miles north of Bemidji, on Fri
day night, precipitated the arrest of
Mayor D. F. Dumas of Cass Lake at
Hibbing, and apparently disclosed
the identity of the imam higher up"
in the campaign of arson and safe
cracking which has been going on in
northern Minnesota for several
months. To the Pinkerton detectives
is due most of the credit for running
the conspirators to earth. It seems
that the detectives we're given a tin
by r. G. Smythe, the Puposky store
keeper, who asserts that he paid Du-
mas 500 in marked bills and gave
him check for 5000 on the agreement
that he-Dumas-would see that his
store was burned. Hence the detec-
tlves and sheriff's posse went into
hiding and shot the two yeggmen af-
ter they had entered the store-one of
whom they captured and the other es-
capped in the woods. On Monday DR..
Dumas safe was searched and in it
we're found several sticks of dynamite
the superstition being that the doc
tor, who is said to be an expert chem
ist, boiled the dynamite and manufac-
tured the "soup" for the organization
OF yeggmen of which he is alleged to
be the chief and guiding star.
When Dumas faces trial on charges
of arson and robbery brought by men
who assert that be was the ringleader
of a gang which deal in wholesale
arson and robbery, he must explain
a mass of testimony which will be
used in an attempt to send him to
prison. Against him the detectives
say they now have the following evil
dence:
Dynamite found in DR.. Dumas Office
safe in Cass Lake.
Letters to DR.: Dumas from Ed LIE
Claire, said by the detectives to be a.
notorious yeggman, and letters from
Dumas to La Claire, in which LIE
Claire is asked to come to Cass Lake
and bring "good man."
Exact transcript of saloon con-
versation between Dumas, Behan and
a third man in which the Puposky
robbery was planned.
Receipts showing Dumas had been
buying explosives and an affidavit of
Cass Lake hardware merchant that
dynamite was purchased by the ply
sician two weeks ago.
Evidence that Dumas was a friend
OF Fred Hunter, now serving seven
year sentence in Saltwater for rob-
berry.
A confession from William Behan,
shot and captured at Puposky, impli-
eating Dumas in the case.
The testimony of r. G. Smythe, who
asserts that Dumas agreed to burn
his store for $500.
The finding of two valises, contain
ing yeggmen' s tools, in the Bemidji
saloon in which the robbery is said to
have been planned.
The detectives also say that Dumas
received during the past half year as
his share of the fruits of incendiary
fires and burglaries not less than
S25, 1000.
DR.. Dumas was arraigned before
Court Commissioner Simons at Be-
midi on Monday and, after brief ex-
animation, was released on bonds of
Sl0,0 900 furnished by two Cass Lake
merchants and saloonkeeper.
Dumas hearing was set for June %
before the same commissioner.

White Sewing Machine Art Exhibition.


Throughout last week Ewings' store
was crowded daily with ladies who
attended to view the remarkable
works of art which we're made on the
White sewing machine and displayed
by Miss Gahney, one of the CON-
pany's experts. There we're beautiful
curtains in lace and embroidered silk
of the most artistic designs on exhibi-
ton, and patterns we're shown which
for excellence greatly surpassed hand
work. Every description of fancy
work was shown-the variety was too
extensive to here enumerate-and
everything was executed on the White
rotary, a fact which surprised many
lady present. There is not the
shadow of doubt that this machine
is the acme of perfection and the very
best that has ever been invented.
