and his actions at times have not
been those of sane man.
Erickson is unmarried, and came
to Minnesota 10 years ago from
Michigan, and settled in Eland town
ship six years ago.
Last Sunday his strange manner
attracted the attention of neigh bors,
who decided that something should
be done to aid him, and the commit
ment today was the outcome.
All day Sunday Erickson ran up
md down road in front of his
farm. and after every dash of 75 or
80 yards would kneeI and grab a
bush or a tree and act as though in

In commenting today on the tank,
Contractor Tom Johnson, who built

There has been some apprehension
On the part of the public, and some

ssThe tanks construction has been
made without mlshap, except for
some slight damage done by the ice
last winter, and that was repaired
and the tank is in first class condi-

''The total cost of this tank will
be less than $4,000 and this is the
cheapest settling pool or septic tank
in the state, one-third less than the
cost Of the tank at Detroit, one-half
less than that of the tank at Bau-

Brown" Posing as Picture Agent
Seen Driving Rapidly Toward
- Puposky.
CABIN AS SHELTER OF BANDIT
May Have Hid For Two Weeks and
Then Made Dash By Way Of
Deer River.

Solway, II miles northwest of Be-
midi, has been suddenly brought in
to a possible angle of the Dumas
arson case and its associate sensa-
tional features, through the disap--
pearance of a team of horses from a
Solway liveryman
The theory is advanced that the
team was used in getting Mike
Davis, the much-talked-of Puposky
robber, out of the country.
As the team has not been returned,
two weeks after having been hired,
the deduction is that the animals
were stolen to be used by the yegg-
men in a clean getaway. ~
Owned By George Ellis.
George Ellis, Solway liveryman, is
the owner of the team in question.
Two weeks ago, man who gave his
name as j. E. Brown hired team
from Mr.. Ellis, saying that he was
selling pictures through the country
in the vicinity of Solway, and said
that he wanted the team for two days
and would return the animals at the
end Of that time and pay for their
use.
Brown, who is described as being
a smooth-looking chap, got into the
rig and drove northward, and since
the day he left Solway no trace of
Brown or the team has been found.
Seen Going Toward Puposky.
He was seen to drive rapidly by
the old Sibley farm, two miles north
of Solway and turn towards the
northeast, and keeping that direc-
ton, he would have reached a point
west of Puposky.
1t is surmised that Brown" was
a confederate of Davis, and that he
secured the team and met the yegg
at some isolated cabin west of Pu-
posky and drove out of the country
to the west, probably getting Davis
aboard 500 train for Cass Lake,
from which place he went to Deer
River and from there possibly To
Superior and to his present where
abouts, which appear to be secret
to everybody.
Many Cabins in Woods.
What lends some color to the
theory that Brown" got Davis out
of the country by means of the Sol
way team is that there are many de-
serted cabins west of Puposky, where
Davis could have easily taken re-
fuge and nursed his wounds received
at Puposky until two weeks after the
Puposky duel with officers, which
was about the time that the marshal
of Deer River claimed Davis had
been located at cabin near that
place, with evidence that he had just
arrived there from some other point.
The Ellis team is still missing; and
Sheriff Hazen has been given a war
rant for the arrest Of Brown" the
man who took the team away. Up
| to the present time, the sheriff has
been unable to locate Brown or the
| team g..

dition But Physician Says They
Will Recover.
HUSBAND IS NOW REPENTANT,
Regrets His Action, Hopes Wounded
Companion Will Grant Him
Forgiveness.

Because his wife would not go
home and cook meal for him,
Charles Chaboillez, grandson of the
famous Hudson Bay trader, drew a
pocketknife and stabbed the woman
five times and then plunged the
crimsoned blade into his own throat,
missing the jugular vein by the clos
est possible margin. The attempt at
murder and suicide was made at her
brothers home, David Dickinson on
the Red Lake Agency.
Mrs. Chaboillez was first felled
with blow from the fist of her
husband and was unconscious when
the murderous assault began. Agency
policemen ran to the rescue of the
wounded woman and placed the man
under arrest.

Up to Governor Now.

The request on the part of Mr..
Peterson for the return of the aft
davits is taken to mean that in this
way he is putting the issue squarely
up to the governor for the last time.
The governor has delayed action on
the petition which requested him to
suspend Sheriff Hazen at once pend
ing an Investigation into the affairs
of the sheriff's Office, on the excuse
that he first must obtain an opinion
from the attorney general.
So far as the attorney general is
concerned, the petition has, SO far
as the public knows, received no Off
cial attention, under the pretext that
the attorney general has not had
time to consider it, although since
the Peterson petition was filed sim
liar procedure has been authorized
in Hennepin county and the attorney
for Lake county has been removed.

Refusal Leads to Assault.

Because of the violent actions of
her husband, Mrs. Chaboillez refused
his request to proceed to their home
and prepare food for him.
This enraged the man and he is
said to have knocked her sense1ess
with one blow of his clenched fist.
Grabbing large pocketknife from
his pocket, he jabbed the blade into
the breast and back of his helpless
companion, who reused, by the pain,
began to scream.
Men came running from different
directions and dragged Chaboillez
from his victim.

Why Attorney General Balks.

It is known that the attorney gen.
eral has been "close" to Sheriff Hazen
and he still holds in his possession a
list of names presented last winter
by Mr.. Hazen in an effort to collect
from the legislature pay for aid
given by Bemidji citizens to forest
fire victims at Baudette. The at
torney general took personal inter-
est in presenting this claim, but
when the storm of protest from Be
midi against efforts to collect for
any relief extended suffering villages
in her own county, reached the ears
of the attorney general, he quietly
pigeon hOled the list. -

Baby's Body Found.

Baby's Body Found.
The body of the three days old in
FAINT was found by girls employed at
the hotel beneath the room occupied
by Miss Wichowski. The find was

DR.. Dumas on the Job.
DR.. D. F. Dumas, Dr. Christian
son and RI. Rodwell assisted the
coroner in the pOstmOrtem. The
physicians decided that the child had
lived about twenty minutes after it's
birth.
A coroner's jury was summoned
and after hearing the evidence in the
case this jury this afternoon conclud-
ed that the death of the child was
due to negligence.
Young Woman is Held.
AS a result of this verdict the
young woman will be arraigned be-
fore a justice here, probably tomor-
row or next day, and in all probable
ity will be bound over to await the
action of the grand jury on a charge
of infanticide.
Miss Wichowski admits the birth
of the child, which she said took place
last Friday night. Sch explains that
the father of the baby has skipped
out to Europe She insists that the
infant was born dead and that as she
did not wish anyone to know of her
trouble, that she had placed in in a
shoe box, and kept it there until
early Monday morning when she
threw if from her window on the
second story of the hotel building to
the ground below, where it was later
picked up by other employees of the
place.
The young woman, who is Polish
is bitter against the man in the case
and insists that he, not she, should
be made to go to Jail.
