bound over to the grand jury Tuesday
afternoon by Municipal Judge Lyon:
They decided to plead guilty, however,
and were taken to St. Cloud Wednes-
day, where they pleaded guilty beAore
Judge J. A. Roeser to forgery in the
third degree. David Emond's s sentence
was deferred as it was learned that he
had been out on probation and an in
vestigation will be necessary. In the
meanwhile he will be confined in the
county Jail here. Inga Hanson was SEN
fenced to an indeterminate term in the
state penitentiary, the maximum limit
beng years, but her sentence was
suspended and she was left in the care
Of Sheriff Felix, to whom she must re-
port each week. Emond is IS years Of
age and the girl is of about the same
age.
Emond halls from Minneapolis and
Miss Hanson has been employed in
Minneapolis for the past two years.
She lived in Comstock, near Moorhead,
until three years Of age, when she was
turned over to relative in Wiscon-
sin, with whom she lived until Is
years of age. She was forced to leave
that home and went to Minneapolis,
where she found employment. Both at
first held that they were man and wife
but it has been learned that such is
not the case.
The forgers' game was discovered
Thursday, when Mr.. Emond tried to
pass bad check at the White Front
Buffet. Mr.. Janski suspected that the
check was forged as the name, which
the man claimed was given him by c.
H. Brown for services rendered, bore
the initials P. H. While Mr.. Janski
was telephoning to Mr.. Brown to as
certain whether the check was good,
Emond disappeared. The police were
notified and a. search was started. HUI
bert Friesinger found the couple near
the Pine Grove park and arrested the
young lady but the man managed to
run away. He made his way to Roy
alton, where he was later captured by
the sheriff and Friesinger.
In the meantime Miss Ellen Strand,
manager Of the NJ. T. Weum & Son
ladies' furnishing store on Broadway,
learned that she had been the victim
Of their forgery, the young lady hav-
ing passed a check for $12.4O and Sc
cured two silk waists valued at nearly
$500 and the balance in change. When
in this store, upon being questioned as
to where she lived she stated that she
was working at the West Hotel and
the check was then accented The
check was signed "West Hotel' and
was endorsed with the named "Regina
Christianson'
The man was also charged with hav-
ing tried to pass bad check at the
j. johnson saloon and the young lady
is charged with trying to pass a bad
check at L. D. Browns drug store.
Emond admitted making out all of the
checks.

May 81 TO Be MEMORIAL day
GOVERNOR ISSUES PROCI.AMA-
TON SETTING DAY ASIDE TO
HONOR PATRIOTIC DEAD

Memorial Day will this year lie OBJ
served on Monday, May 81, instead Of
May 80, that date falling on Sunday.
Governor Hammond's proclamation
sets aside this day as legal holiday,
and he suggests that between IL M.
and 1905 p. m, the bells of the city
be tolled in honor Of the soldier dead
and that all persons stand uncovered
during that period. The proclamation
,lows:
With each succeeding year the ranks
of the Grand Army Of the Republic
grow thinner; those men who, more
than a half century ago, took up arms
not for the purpose of conquest, but
to preserve government founded up
on the theory that all men are created
equal-are one by one passing to "he
great beyond.
It is but proper that we who are the
heirs of their heroic deeds should set
apart day on which to show our ap-
probation of the worth of their labor,
and to strew upon their last resting
places flowers as tokens of sweet re-
membrance.
Nor are we unmindful Of the valor
and patriotism of the veterans Of the
Spanish American war and the soldiers
of our country. who have given their
lives to maintain the honor Of the ma
ton and in defense of it's flag.
In 1911 the Grand Army of the Re-
public, at it's forty-ffth encampment,
ordered that as a part Of the public
exercises on Memorial day, flags be
placed at half mast, that bells be toll
ed from II noon to 1905 p. M, and
that comrades stand with uncovered
heads during that interval Of time.
Each ensuing year this simple but i'm
pressive ceremony has been observed
by the Grand Army. This would seem
proper manner in which to show
honor to our soldiers who have died
for home and country-not only .Dy the
remaining comrades, but by the pubAc
at large, joining in this silent testi-
monial Of respect-especia1ly at this
time, when 50 many men in other lands
are giving their lives on the battle
field.
We behold today one-half Of the
world drenched in blood in the greatest
and most cruel war Of history, and a
silent tribute of respective minutes
of memories-cannot do otherwise
than call to our minds the cruelties Of
war and the blessings Of peace.
It is fitting that we should Join our
fellow citizens in an appropriate me-
mortal to our patriotic dead; therefore,
T. Winfield s. Hammond, governor Of
Minnesota. hereby designate Monday,
Nav 81, 1915, to be public holiday,
and ask that the day be observed in
a becoming manner.
