this city, found his duties in the bank
too pressing to continue with the work
in the company. Mr.. Grossman Is the
traffic manager Of the Manchester and
Oneida railway, and has been resi-
dent Of this city for a number of years.
He was connected with the Minnesota
National Guards while he was a resi-
dent of ST. Paul, serving in various ca
pacities for eleven years. He is well
known among the young men of Man

Will schroeder, cashier of the Pres
ton bank, has gotten in bad. Mr..
Schroeder has been keeping company
for seven years with Miss Amalia
Stamp, one of Prestons fair maidens.
He during that time, she alleges, asked
her hand in marriage and was ac-
copied. few weeks ago, it appears,
he decided that so long as his means
were quite limited and the young lady
had no means that he would direct his
attentions and affections to another
young woman, one with means. After
making arrangements to marry the
second girl, he went to his first love
and broke the news to her in rather
crude way. Miss Stamp has secured
attorneys and has filed suit for $4,000
damages for breach of promise. The
petition filed by defendant states that
she was getting ready to marry and
that Mr.. Schroeder told her he was
going to marry the other young lady
because she has money. The case will
come up for trial at the June term.

sent to Sheriff Dunn from Lattners-

the Oberfoell farm in an automobile.
When the man saw the automobile APP
preaching he escaped from the field to
the nearby woods, and he wasn't
caught until after quite a chase. A
posse of farmers had surrounded him
in order to guard against any depreda-

answer all questions. She said that
Sunday afternoon she bought 5 cents
worth Of candy In a grocery store. She
failed to find her brother. She started
walking home along the railroad
tracks, but instead of walking home
walked up town. The little Polish
girl explained that she was afraid to
accost persons and tell them that she
was lost. She, however. knew that she
had to find a place for the night.
Lydia said that in a park near the
public library she found sort of sum
mer house. There were seats In this
summer house and under the seats was
a cement floor. Lydia decided that
she would be safe there. When no enc

seat. She spent the night on the ce-
ment sidewalk under the seat. There
is no doubt that the seat in the sum-
mer house was in the pavilion in
Greene square. Lydia said that Mon.
day night and Tuesday night she again
made herself bed of the cement
floor under the seat in the same park.
