ARRESTED FOR BURGLARY

Sacred Heart and Buffalo Lake Wis
tied by Members Of !. w. w.
Four prisoners are held in. the coun-
ty Jail here at present to answer for
crimes of theft and burglary commit
ted at Buffalo Lake and Sacred Heart
while another is held to answer to the
charge of peddling liquor in the
county.
On Saturday two men were taken
from a west bound freight train at
Buffalo Lake by the village marshal
and turned over later to Sheriff Sunde.
The men had boarded the train at
Cologne as agents for the organization
known as Industrial Workers of the
World and soon fell in with other lab
oring men who were going west on the
same train. They tried to induce these
men to join the l. w. w. and when the
latter refused they threatened them
with personal violence. According to
the testimony Of one, Morris Pearn,
they took from him all his money,
which amounted to $2.4O, and COMPEL
ed another man to get OIL the train
when he refused to cash over. Pearn
appeared against the accused men on
Monday morning at hearing in the
court house and they finally pleaded
guilty to the charge Of grand larceny
and were held to the district court.
The men gave their names as William
and John Rogers and claim to be bro
theirs. They came originally from
Texas and say they were acting &C
cording to instructions when they CO.
creed men into joining the l. w. w.
On Monday two other men, also
members of the l. w. W., were arrest
ed at Sacred Heart on the charge of
burglary and turned over to the sher-
if. 1t appears the men had been
hanging around town for several days
and had worked short time for Thor
Helgeson, proprietor Of the local meat
market. Being familiar with Hedge
sons business place, they awaited an
opportunity and broke into the slaugh.
ter house Friday night. They were
seen to enter the place by the village
marshal, who Immediately placed
them under arrest. Two revolvers
used in the slaughter house for killing
live stock were found in possession
of the two men when arrested. They
were given a hearing Monday and
bound over to district court and the
same day were brought to Olivia and
placed in the county jail.-Olivia

$6o,o00.o0.
An interesting trip that combines
recreation and pleasure with 1nstruc-
ton is visit to the picking station
at Dassel conducted by the M. A. Ged-
ney Co., of the Twin Cities.
The picking station is a hive OF In
dustry at this season of the year. A
representative of the paper visited
the plant Monday and found 1t a very
interesting place. OF course, Monday
is always busy day, because 1t brings
to the plant the pickings of both Sun
day and Monday.
Cucumbers are brought to the plant
in all sorts of conveyances, by auto
or wagon load. The cucumbers are
dumped into hopper from which they
go to wide endless belt which is In
continual motion. Groups OF girls sta
toned at one side sort the "cukes"
into half dozen different sizes, throw
ing each in it's proper box. AS the
boxes are filled they are weighed and
the farmer is paid for his product &C.
cording to it's weight and size. The
tiny cucumbers bring $3.50 per hun

very largest are discarded altogether
as worthless.
The smaller sized cucumbers are
dumped into series of large watts, the
largest of which are capable Of hold
ing $4,000 pounds. Salt and water are
added. There they will remain till
later in the season for further treat
ment.
The dill pickles are barreled at
once. A layer of dill is placed at the
bottom of the barrel, then follow pick
les and dill at intervals till the barrel
is full. The barrel is then wheeled
to the brine tank and filled with
brine. 1t is then carted into the stor-
age yard where the contents ferment,
water being added from time to time
until the process is complete.
About twenty people are employed
at the height Of the season and they
have ITO go some" for on busy day
there is a constant stream of convey
ances arriving at the station awaiting
turns to unload.
1t was estimated earlier in the sea-
son that the station would distrib lte
100000 among farmers adjacent to
Dassel. This may have to be cut
some on account of the drought which
existed during the month of July and
curtailed growth Saturday

Clean Up School Buildings Now.

Clean Up School Buildings Now.
Now is the time for School Boards
to see that the school buildings are
put into safe condition from fire for
the coming sessions.
During the summer vacation period,
many schools are closed and not look
de after again until just before the
term begins in the fall, says Robt. w.
Hargadine, State Fire Marshall.
Have an inspection made of the
Easements, closets, attics and out-of-
the-way corners in each school build
ing. See that the chimneys are clean
ed so as to reduce the danger of fire
from SCOT, and above all, get rid of
all rubbish in and about the school
buildings before the children return.
In this manner many school build
ings will be made safe for the child
rem and instructors, and incidentally
will save the community possibly hum
dreds of dollars.
Last year there were % school
houses burned in Minnesota with an
aggregate loss of $183,528. Undoubt-

of his recovery fortnight ago.

Mr.. James most recently attracted at
tention when he renounced his American
citizenship and swore allegiance to Eng

tho Allies and his long residence In Eng

LARGE SUM OVERLOOKED

NEW YORK. Feb. 29.-Secret service
men from Washington, with local postal
inspectors and police, are searching the
city and suburbs for clue to the most
DARING postal robbery New York has had
In years
Four registered mail pouches were
rned shortly after 8 o'clock Saturday
morning on a Jersey Central ferryboat
and close to S1,000,000 in cash stolen.
The pouches were removed from an auto
mall truck on the ferryboat and then re-
placed. A driver and two postal messen-
gers seated on the front of the truck
Knew nothing of the robbery until the
pouches were opened in the registered
mall division of the new postoffice, at
9Th avenue and 33d street
A pouch containing several hundred
thousands OF dollars for New York banks
was overlooked. 1t was shipped from
the Treasury Department in Washington
This, inspectors declare, was the motive
for the robbery.
The mail motortruck met the 3:52 train
AZ the station of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad In New Jersey to carry the early
mail from the South to Manhattan.
Thirty bags of first-class mail. together
with the six registered bags, were thrown
INTO the iron-meshed cage or the first
truck The doors were locked with the
regulation lock placed on all wagons and
mail pouches.
The inspectors are puzzled to under
stand how the robbers managed to un-
lock the door and take the four pouches
unnoticed by any one, Whether they took
the bags on at the ferry entrance or
dropped them into boat dragged at the
ferrys side the inspectors are unable to
guess, although It was said that 1t would
nave been almost impossible for them to
drop bags into boats without attracting
attention of the attendants They admit
|t would be equally difficult for them to
