SHERIFF HAD A
LONG CHASE

Crosby, n. D., Feb. 1-Sheriff Nelson
figured in an exciting race and the
capture Of an escaping prisoner in
the vicinity of Noonan. He had gone
to Noonan to arrest John Wenholz
on a charge of grand larceny. 1t app
pears that Wenholz, who was arrested
once before on a charge of stealing
grain and was released, again faces a
charge of the same kind besides at
tempting to escape from an officer.
Wenholz was arrested on the out
skirts of Noonan where he has a barn
in which he kept a team of horses.
At the time Of the arrest he was ac-
companied by another party, and they
were just hitching a team to a rig
preparatory to leave. Sheriff Nelson
ordered them to drive into Noonan
ahead of his rig so that he could keep
watch of them.
on arriving in Noonan the prisoner
vent to his home and the sheriff hur-
ried after him, but was informed that
he was not there, having left by the
back door. Deputies were Immediate
IL sworn in and commenced a search
but h was not found in the town,
and the work of searching the sur
rounding country was then taken up.
About this time a light snow began
falling n 1t became very difficult
to find any trace of the fugitive. The
fall Of snow did not last long, and
when it cleared a party was seen run
ming on the prairie east of Kermit.
Sheriff Nelson her drove his team
rapidly in hat direction and shortly
was up with the fleeing person who
proved to be the escaping prisoner.
The sheriff called to Wenholz to halt.
but he continued to run and kept
ahead Of the team for a couple of
miles when Nelson again called q halt
and threatened to shoot. The f1gi-
tive threw up his hands and invited
the sheriff to shoot him. The sheriff
then got out of his rig to get Wen
holz without injury put as soon as he
was out of the rig the fugitive again
commenced to rum. About this time
Nelson decided to let him run and
to give him a race to remember. He
drove his team as hard as possible
for about Ave miles, but Wenholz. who
weighs about 240 pounds, proved to
be a long winded Marathon racer and
| kept in the lead. Nelson then got his
| automatic revolver in action and com
menced shooting around the neeing
prisoner and finally when within q
half mile of the Canadian line Wen
holz felt that the bullets were get
ting too thick and close and gave up,
the Sheriff rearresting him. This time
the prisoner was shown nc courtesies
and the handcuffs were placed on him
and he was Immediately brought I'd
Crosby and lodged ir the city Jail to
await his hearing.
This is certainly a remarkable ar
rest in tile annals Of crime in this par;
Of the state, and a credit to Sheriff
Nelson In that he perfected the arrest

DOCTORS BEATEN.
Must Pay $500 In Malpractice Case
Was Hard FOUGHT,

Devils Lake, N. D, Feb. LIN the
district court at Rugby, before Judge
A.. G. Burr, the jury in the malprac-
tice case in which BENJAMIN Covell
was the plaintiff, returned a verdict In
the sum Of $500, against Drs. Beg
trup of Rugby and Nelson of Knox.
The action was dismissed so far as
DIR. Call Of Rugby was concerned.
The suit was brought by Covell,
who sustained an injury in 1910 In
an accident at Knox. He was taken
to Rugby, where a foot was ampu-
tated. Covell asserted that the opera
ton was performed without his knowl-
edge or consent. alleging at the time
that 1t was unnecessary. It developed
that DR.. Call had nothing to do with
the operation other than administers
ing the anaesthetic.
