Do You Know Him?

We have heard and read about
the mean man, but yesterday a
story was told us that compels us
to think that the mean man must
reside in Fergus county. Two boys
launched on their own account in
the hog business and raised % hogs
II Of which were sold and delivered
|by them to a man (?) not thou
sand miles from here. for $1O2. The
buyer was not at home when the
stock was delivered. but would send
D check ETC., etc. However, no
fheck came. Thanksgiving and
Christmas came and the boys re-
peatedly called and wrote for money.
they had planned on this for pin
money and finally when they saw
hat this man had killed and sold
he last OF their hogs they resorted
D force. and the fellow said if they
Fould not sue or go to law he would
uietly settle with them for $112.
his was months from the time
the delivery. Last Saturday
hey received a check for $1O2 minus
cents cents fer telephone charge.
laking $101.75-is that a mean
IAN? But the boys are still raising
pgs and hope to meet this buyer
ith the automobile and diamonds.
e think this is little worse than
e man WHO orders his local paper
mt by mail to his address and who
pesn't pay up for three years.

my, and lying, clad in overalls, upon
its right side as a man would lie to
sleep; this rests upon slab in the NOR.
que today and awaits identification,
1t is the body of young man, found
Sunday near Viola.
While Coroner McCartor is complet-
ing his investigation at Viola, but little
can be learned of the man or his death.
He was evidently young. as is shown
by the condition of his teeth. His
clothes indicate that he was workman
possibly lumber-jack or miner. He
was probably about feet 10 inches IN
height, and was rather of slight build.
He is belived to have been one Of
three men who were cutting wood in
the vicinity of Viola last February.
The men suddenly disappeared, and no
further thought was given to them un--
til the gastly discovery Sunday.
The skull of the deaths head shows
no fracture. and there is nothing to in.
dicate that he met death either BY gun
shot or stabbing. In fact the theory
is that he either died suddenly of natu.
raj causes, or that he drank tod much
whiskey one night. aud froze to death.
This latter view seems curreet around
Viola.
