BAD ACTOR
Tramp with Butcher Knife Causes
Alarm at Ethan.

Ethan, July 1S.-Alarm has been
created in the vicinity of Ethan by
the knowledge that tramp armed
with huge butcher knife is running
at large. after having stabbed an
other hobo as the elimination of a
dispute between them. The wound
was in the region of the heart, but
fortunately was not deep enough to
prove fatal. The man who did the
stabbing made his escape and doubt
less believes he killed his compan-
ion. For this reason, il is feared, he
will make desperate fight before
surrendering TO any officers who
may locate him. A man answering
the description of the fugitive was
seen in a pasture on the farm of p.
j. Ottosen, where il has been learned
he was living upon the milk of the
cows. The fugitive was discovered
by little daughter of Ottosen. who
went TO the pasture after the cows.
She reported that the man had a
butcher knife. a rope and a bottle.
