FARGO ROBBERY
JOHN GLENN, INNATE OF MIN.
NEsoTA REFoRMAToRY, BOTH
Erred BY CONSCIENCE ADMITS
he ROBBED WAsEM FLAT IN
THE oPERAHousE ANNEX.

His conscience bothering him, John
Glenn, an inmate of the reformatory
at ST. Cloud, MINI, has confessed that
several months ago he robbed a fiat
In this city and stole about $3.50 worth
of clothes, etc
In his confession, Glenn stated the
rooms that he had robbed were located
about one block from Broadway. He
gave such good description that the
officers here had no trouble whatever
in locating the place 1t was the
operahouse annex, the rooms robbed
being those of Mr.. and Mrs. Ben
Wasem, who at that time were resid-
ing in that block.
Glenn stated that he had secured an
entrance by tearing away curtain
from a window sash, the glass OF which
had been broken, and turning the key
in the lock-
He said that he had stolen about
$3.50 to $175 worth of clothing and
other articles, and that these he had
sold to colored man named George
watkins. He received, he said 81 for
the goods. He also said that his
conscience had troubled him and that
he was confessing so that he might do
all he could to make restitution
Watkins and wife moved from this
city to Minneapolis some time ago, and
Mr.. Wasem, with Chief Bowers went
there yesterday to inquire into the
case. 1t was expected that they would
return yesterday, but as they did. not
it is believed that they went on to ST.
Cloud to have an interview with young
Glenn, who is under age, and has been
confined in the reformatory there for
some crime committed in Minnesota.
At the time of the robbery young
Glenn put on Mr.. Wasem's hat, coat
and shoes, leaving his old greasy
clothing in exchange. 1t was seen by
an examination of the pockets that
whoever had committed it had been
riding on the box car special, for the
pockets were filled with gravel and
cinders. Every effort was made to
find the thief, but to now purpose and
Mr.. Wasem and the police had given
up all hopes of running down the
thief, until the confession was sent
here by the authorities of the st.
Cloud institution.

making a dicker that transfers con-
tract for one of his famous Everglade
farm tracts into the pocket of a pur-
chaser and the coin of the purchaser
into the pocket Of the canny Scot, but
he has a big reputation for square
dealing and reliability.
His everglade land proposition has
great endorsement among the elite of
North Dakota's shrewd investors from
the head of the great A. c. to many
farmers and business men scattered
about the state as we'll as a goodly
portion of Fargos plain people"
The everglades land proposition ap-
peals with direct force to the people Of
a section like this where many seek
warmer climates in winter. The
owner Of a glade farm can farm south
in winter, with a ready market for his
vegetables and fruits at high prices,
and in the summertime let his south
land farm rest and come back to good
old North Dakota. This seems to be
the reasoning Of a large number Of
North Dakotans.

M'KINLEY'S BIRTHDAY

Tomorrow, Jan. 20, is Carnation day,
so-called in honor of William McKin-
ley, the martyred president of the
United States, whose birthday occurred
on this day of the month.
The carnation was the ex-president's
favorite flower, and those who knew
him say that it was seldom he was
seen without this flower in his button
hole.
at the suggestion Of several McKin-
ley clubs which flourished and still ex-
list in the east, it was decided to COM

people of the United States in general
to wear his favorite flower on this day
of the year.

If the attorneys wanted the case tried
after Christmas that perhaps another
Judge could be sent to this city.
Judge Waight next addressed the
court relative to the reduction of the
bond of Mr.. Hills. He stated that the
bond was fixed at $4,000 Saturday
night by Mr.. Cooper to keep the pris-
oner out of Jail over Sunday. Judge
Waight explained that Mr.. Hill was
not a resident Of Knox county and
that the bond was excessive in this
case He asked that the bond be re-
duced to $2,500, and If this was done
that the defendant would be able to
furnish bond. otherwise IL the bond
Of 5000 was insisted upon 1t was very
improbable that the defendant would
be able to give bond and would be
compelled to go to jail
Judge Seward announced that he
would take the matter under advise
ment and would announce his decision
later In the day.

and Mr.. Frank Moore of that firm was

Gambler for living and that his wife
had been taking in sewing.

morning that Hills and Lybarger

or's time will be taken up with these
matters all week.
The prosecutor further stated that

STORY Of ARREST
In Cincinnati As Told BY The ClnCln-
nail Enquirer On Sunday

The story of Harry N. Hills arrest
in Cincinnati on Saturday is told most
Interestingly in the Enquirer on Sun
day. The account follows:
H. N. Hills, with Offices in 701 st.
Paul Building, and well known in Gin
cinnati for the past five years as a
broker in highgrade investments, was
arrested shortly before II o'clock yes
terday morning at Fourth avenue and
Walnut street by Detective McDer-
mott and Kinclad and Sheriff P. j.
Parker, of Knox county, Ohio. Hills
was Just going to his ofiiffice.
"Mr. Hills, we believer" queried the
detectives, after the Sheriff had point
ed out the prosperous-looking citizen.
"Yes. indeed" said the broker, smil-
ing and holding out his hand. He
looked astonished when the detectives
mentioned their mission. Come up
to my Office" he said at last recover
ing himself, I'D rather talk there"
Hills is under indictment at Mt. Yer
non, Ohio, jointly with Claude Wyant,
now of Bethlehem, Pa, and Ulysses
s. Lybarger, of Gambler Ohio. The
indictments were made secretly by
the grand jury of Knox county, in ses-
sion at Mt. Vernon. AS soon as the
jurors had acted Sheriff Parker pre-
pared to come to Cincinnati and take
Hills into custody. The broker had
just returned from Pensacola, Fla. He
is the local representative of the Pack
ard Land Company, of Pensacola, a
concern which is capitalized at $780,
600.
twenty-five years ago Hills was the
proprietor of the Gambler Military
Academy and many residents of this
city were enrolled in that institution
preparing for college courses. The
academy was destroyed by fire, and
Mr.. Hills then organized ladies' sem
mary, continuing with it until he took
up the banking business. He was al

ionably trimmed and looks squarely
at one. Detective Chief Ralph Craw-
ford, formerly resident of Clifton,
residing at Lafayette and Ludlow
avenue, recognized the prisoner as
man he had often met and nodded to
in that suburb.
The prisoner was not excited and
took his arrest coolly. He refused to
say one word to the newspaper men
that gathered around him and waved
them off, saying his lawyer, Stanley
E. Bowdle, would do whatever talking
was to be done. Shortly before noon
Sheriff Parker came to get Hills out
of his cell, for which relief the agent
expressed much thanks. The officer
and the prisoner left at once for Mt
Vernon.

Arrest by Kincald, McDermott and the
Sheriff, Hills was still the enthusiastic

properties, and in his office entertain.

exhibiting a half dozen yams as large
as peck measures. These are what
we raise down in Pensacola on the
greatest and most fertile farm lands"
He offered one of the gigantic tubers
to each of the officers to take home
for the Sunday dinner. 81

the case to the officers, but chatted

that the only thing he asks is that the
public shall suspend their opinion una
til the case is heard on the facts,
when, he says, 1t will be fully shown
that while he has made mistakes In
judgment, there has been nothing
criminal in his conduct and that he is
still entitled to be regarded as an hon
