Crooodiles as Policemen.

There has been instances in Papua
in which long sentence prisoners have
had no desire to return to their home
because they grew fat in Jail. How
ever, those cases are exceptional, and
attempts to escape are not infrequent
Crocodiles were a great danger to the
runaway, and there was a belief I'm a
part Of the Papuan gulf that the croc
odiles were In league with the govern

A prisoner escaping from jail was
once severely lacerated by one of these

IN JUSTICE COURT

Bernard Lachinski Of Swan River
was brought before Justice of the
Peace Gerritz Wednesday morning,
charged with assault and battery on
the person Of Nick Zientek, also Of
Swan River.
Lachinski's 8 farm adjoins Zientek =
on one side. According to the testi-
mony, threshing crew, while thresh-
ing grain on the Lachinski farm, very
near the line between the two farms,
allowed dust and chaff from the sep
arator to accumulate on the Zientek
farm. Zientek objected to this and
approached Lachinski and addressed
him with very abusive language and
attempted to strike him. Lachinski
caught his arm to. avert the blow,
thereby knocking him to the ground.
The court dismissed the case on the
grounds that there was no cause for
an action and ordered the costs Of the
case, amounting to $3.50, paid by
Zientek. Z

lief fund, which moAey is to be sent

quiring into proposition whereby
the citizens Of Little Falls. may be
able to get a pair Of buffalo for the

BEoGARs HAVE POOR PICKIN0e
HERE r.

The local authorities are enforcing
the beggar ordinance to the point and
no one beggar who has entered this
city since he ordinance went into ef-
feet has remained very long.
Yesterday Garfield, a plain clothes

was begging money, which, according
to list he was circulating, was to
be used in starting a some business.
He gave his home as Portland, Ore,
and then in writing told the justice q
hard luck story. His story was that
he was waiting for a train at the sta
tion at Saville, Wis, one day, when
he was attacked by two strangers and
was struck over the head with gun
and robbed Of his money, amounting
to $3.50. He was then taken down the
track a distance, where he was hit in
the face and knocked unconscious, and
left near the tracks, where he remain
ed until the next morning.
The man showed signs Of having
been handled rather roughly, but was
physically able to work and the jus
