YECCMAN PAYS VISIT TO
LOCAL POST OFFICE
Nets Him Proceeds Of About $500
IN Stamps and less than $500
In Cash for his
Trouble

The local post office officials were
surprised on last Saturday morning
to find the door of the safe lying on
the floor in several pieces, and the
stamps and money contained in the
safe gone. Fortunately, in response
to circular received few days pre-
vious, from the Post Office depart
ment, the safe contained very little
and the loss was less then $25.00
outside Of the safe, which was de-
stroyed.
The blast was heard by several of
our citizens who were awakened by
it, but none thought of such thing
as safe blowing and did not invest
igate. Mr.. VIM. Tunmore happened
to look out the window of the Paine
hotel about half hour after he
heard the noise and saw a short man
coming from the direction of the
post office and going north on Mad
ison street. This was about three
o'clock on Saturday morning.
Warnings were sent out by tele-
phone to all points along the road
east and west, and on Saturday it
was learned that stranger had
passed Cascade about eight o'clock
that morning. He was not seen be-
tween Cascade and Finland, having
made detours to avoid the settle
ments.
George Sanju, of Finland, who is
in the State Forestry service, saw
a suspicious looking stranger walk
ing westward on the track about six
miles west of Finland, and procuring
a gun and man to assist him armed
with revolver, they selected place
from which both the road and the
railroad track were visible and lay in
wait for him there. He soon ap-
peared, and whe he was about two
hundred feet from them they fired
a shot over his head and ran out into
the open and called to him to throw
up his hands. This he did, but he
had grabbed MIS- revolver and stooG
with it pointed in the air. He was
then told to drop his revolver and
hold up his hands and he complied
promptly. they then went up to him
and searched him and found a bunch
Of skeleton keys, revolver, knife
and map of Minnesota and about
$500 in his pockets. The evidence
against him at present is all circum-
stantial, but it is believed that more
will develop.
The prisoner gives his name as
Harry Davis, of St. Paul, and his
nationality as Russian. He arrived
in the village about 1880 on Thursday
evening, having been picked up and
given ride by Mr.. Schneider, of
the Singer Sewing Machine Co. of
Duluth. He asked TO be let out of
the auto in the neighborhood of St.
Paul avenue, saying he had some
friends he wanted to see, and was
seen by no one after that time in
the village. He claims to have left
the village about eleven o'clock on
Friday night.
! A government detective is expec-
ted today, to look up more evidence
and to take the suspect to Duluth,
where he will be given a hearing.
Sheriff Lien was within short
distance of him when he was cap
tured, having been on his trail since
late Saturday night, he having re-
turned from Duluth that night.
