TRIES AGAIN

Harold Linn, the seven year old
boy who made such sensational
attempt to go west last week and
was caught at St. Cloud, has
made at least three attempts to
make his western trip since.
Last Saturday he was taken off
the N. p. northbound limited at
Rutledge and Monday morning
he boarded a caboose at the Great
Northern depot and was carried
as far as the tower before being
put off. Again Monday noon he
crawled into one of the coaches
of the northbound N. P. train but
this time did not get out Of the
yards. The train crews are now
watching him and his chances of
getting out of town are growing
slim.
In making the N. P. limited
last Friday the boy must have
walked to Beroun and climbed on
the train while it stood on the
sidetrack waiting to pass the
other train for he was seen at
Mission Creek walking towards
Beroun early in the afternoon. -
