RICE INDICTED
ON TWO COUNTS
FARMER WHO IS ALLEGED TO
HAVE TAKEN PART IN FAKE
HoLD-UP or PATTERSON MUST
FACE TRIAL FOR LARCENY AND
ROBBERY.

Frank M. Rice has been indicted on
two counts, robbery and grand larceny
in the first degree.
The grand jury Of Clay countystoday
returned indictments against two per-
sons. Frank M Rice, a welI-to-dc
farmer of Moland township was in
dicted for robbery in the first de-
gree and grand larceny in the same
degree. With his attorney, Senator
Marden. the defendant appeared be-
fore Judge Nye and waived a plea
until tomorrow. The bond for his
release was fixed by the court at $4,-
600 and 1t was Immediately supplied.
The amount was double that fixed,
for the preliminary hearing, by Court
Commissioners Witherow.
Rice is charged with being the
principal in the alleged robbing of r.
evening of Oct. Z, on the outskirts of
the city through the medium of an
improvised hold-up in which he was
assisted by one Ed. Lindey who has
pleaded guilty. A few hours before
Rice had paid Patterson the money
nemed for wages and money due for
goods sold. After the payment of
the money Rice started from his farm,
to drive Patterson to Moorhead and
when within two miles of the court
house they were stopped by a man
in the road. since found out to bave
been Lindey, who demanded the money.
During the parleying between the men
Patterson hid his money under the
seat Of the buggy, which OF course
was known to both of the other men
and Lindey mounted the buggy and
drove Off. Rice and Patterson walked
into the city, reported to the po-
lice. Next day the buggy was found,
but the money gone. Later Lindey
was arrested and subsequently made
a clean breast to the county attorney,
also the place where the money was
hidden and it was so found intact,
just as 1t had been paid over to
Patterson.
The case will be tried by Judge Tay-
lor Of St Cloud as in the past Judge
Nye has had business transactions in
the way OF sale Of land with Rice. 1t
is expected that Judge Taylor viii
come to Moorhead week from next
Monday.
Also, the Jury today, reported an in
dictment against C. G, Shapleigh for
grand larceny in the first degree. The
defendant was local agent for the
Wilcox Lumber Co., and it is said
there has been pending dispute over
an alleged shortage Of several thou
sand dollars and only partial settle
ment made. 1t is believed that when
the case is tried several interesting
phases will develop more or less ia
vorable to the defendant who is rep
resented by f. H. Peterson.

The women of Chicago say this thing

gentlemen's shirt bosoms.
The Chicago idea will spread. 1t
will become nation wide. You, sir,
the gentle reader who now scans these
lines, will go to school 'twixt now and
the last Thursday in November, will
learn to carve turkey decently and in
order, or youth get no turkey. either
white or dark no mince pie. no cram

We may never reform the trusts

TELLS OF MANS
DEATH AGONY

Aberdeen, s. D., Oct 20.-A Jury in
the murder trial OF Eva May Kreiter
for the killing OF her husband was Sc
cured late and the prosecution com
menced placing its evidence before the
jury when court reconvened at 10
o'clock yesterday morning. Peter Lar
son. a Norwegian American farmer
who occupied part of the house on the
Kreiter farm where the killing took
place, was the first witness for the
state. Larson was summoned to the
part of the house occupied by the
Kreiters Immediately after Philip
Kreiter had been stabbed or, as the
wife claims, after he had stumbled and
accidentally thrust into his own back
the knife he intended to attack her
with. Where is my revolver, can't
stand it." were the last words Of Krei-
ter as he writhed in agony upon the
floor OF the farm house kitchen, ac-
cording to Larson. He helped place
the wounded man on bed, and then
summoned DIR. Holmes of Hecla. Lar,
son testified he had retired on the
night of the killing, and after the
Kreiters had returned from the dance
at Hecla on the night Of Feb. 19, he
heard a noise in the adjoining room,
separated only by a thin board parti-
ton from his quarters, as OF furniture
being moved about. He also heard
loud talking, and later Mrs. Kreiter
called to him to open the door. He did
so, and two persons entered the room,
but he did not know whether Kreiter
or his wife entered first, as there was
A., ho hsaN
lighted a lamp, he found Kreiter on
the floor OF the room. After being
placed on the bed, Larson said Kreiter
attempted to talk, but could be uu-
derstood with difficulty. At one time
he said his wife had killed him, and
at another asked for a revolver, In or
der to end the terrible suffering. Dur
ing the time her husband lay upon
the bed, and until his death, Larson
said Mrs. Kreiter sat in a chair on the
other side OF the room. and did not
appear to be disturbed by her hus-
bands agony and made no attempt
to aid him in any way. Larson told
of frequent quarrels between the cou-
pie, the most frequent occasion for the
uuarrels being Mrs. Kreiters dislike
for living on the farm. and her desire
to attend dances in Hecla. Upon one
occasion he said Kreiter objected to
his wife attending a masquerade
dance at Hecla, but she went anyway,
and did not return home until the next
day. Mrs. Larson, wife Of Peter Lar
son, testified practically as did her
husband. She does not speak nor un-
derstand English. and an interpreter
