Authorities at the state hospital
are having difficulty in recapturing
Axel Peterson, an escaped patient
who is hiding about in the ravines
and thickets in Lower Traverse.
Peterson has committed series of
petty thefts, and is succeeding in
making himself q general nuisance
in the neighborhood.
Peterson has been at large nearly
two weeks, and on several occasions
he has paid visits to the slaughter
house of Rausch & Co. At different
times he has cut strips Of meat from
dressed hogs hanging in the slaugh-
ter house, and has also carried OF
shovels and other tools.
Last Tuesday night he entered the
home of Ambrose LaCroix of Ira
verse, and raided the pantry. After
helping himself to hearty meal he
carried off couple loaves Of bread,
q piece Of roast meat and a bag Of
potatoes. He also appropriated q
cap and a shovel, and on the same
night visited the farm Of N. La
Croix, where he secured another
shovel and bushel Of. apples.
1t has been learned that the fugi-
tive has begun work digging cave
near Roberts creek, but two search
ing parties from the hospital, whose
members were sent out Wednesday,
were unable to secure any trace Of
him.
On the following afternoon, how
ever, Ambrose LaCroix visited Rob-
ert's Glen and examined the cave.
He found that the patient had filled
it with quantity Of hay and leaves,
and moment afterward discovered
that Peterson had concealed himself
in the pile Of leaves. After some
persuasion the patient was induced
to 20 to Mr.. LaCroix's home, where
he was seized and bound. Somewhat
later he was taken back to the hos
pital, and he will be watched care
fully in the future.

A Place TO Take Pride In.

Nowhere in the state We venture to
say can be found finer home for .
drug store than that now occupied bv
Eugene Pfefferle's Reliable Drug
Store. For months . crew Of men has
been at work from basement to roof
and now, today, the doors are open
for business in . most handsome
place, indeed
Mr.. Pfefferle has steadily made use
Of q color scheme in his stationery
and wrapping paper. He uses bright
orange yellow and in remodeling he
has kept this color constantly in mind.
Lest it should become too glaring,
however, he has installed shelves and
showcases and ali window and door
castings in rich brown, the material
being quarter sawed oak In the fumed
finish. This soft, dark color blends
and harmonizes perfectly with the
bright yellow of wallis and the signs
which border the plate glass Windows
at the top.
The floor is of mosaic tile in black
and white. The steel ceiling is q
creamy yellow in color and with the
many windows provides that the store
shall be light in every portion. Al
the rear of the main floor an oak par.
tition shuts off fine large prescrip-
tion room with every convenience and
a priva ate office. Over these rooms
and reached by an oaken staircase
are the phonograph psrlors where
Mr.. Pfefferle at last will have ade-
quate space for development of bis
hobby. There are two enclosed booths
for trial and sale purposes besides ths
exhibition room.
The display windows in front are
cunningly contrived by means OF their
shspe so that four displays can be
placed in them at one time. Their
floors are of parquet in yellow and
brown. All In all Mr.. PfeFerle Is to
be congratulated on the excellent taste
he has shown in the color scheme and
arrangement Of his new quarters and
New Ulm will be proud Of the place.
