eighty miles. northwest of Winnipeg,
is sought by The Manitoba police, who
accuse him of tying a young woman
to cows horns. Maggie Warauski,
the daughter of neighbor, is serious

The story sent here is to the effect
that Hansen, who was enarmored of
the girl, became angry at her cold
ness and threatened revenge.
This revenge is said to have con-
sisted of knocking the girl uncon-
scious and binding her firmly across
the animals horns. The COW took
fright and dashed into the BUSH tear
