Taken to Cherokee.
Army corps,

Lehigh Argus: Oliver Bricker, who
was surrounded shy posse Of Yell
township farmers and caught in corn
field down near his rendezvous week
ago Saturday, and taken to Fort Dodge
the next day by the sheriff, had his
trial Friday for vagrancy No evil
dence was produced against him, and
he was let CO. He was Immediately
taken into custody, however, and taken
before the insanity commission and
here he was adjudged insane and Sun
day was taken to Cherokee. There he
will be kept safe and secure and every
body in the neighborhood where he
has been holding out will feel relief.
There has been a lot of deviltry
going on down in the vicinity where
Bricker has been holding forth, in the
big woods in the vicinity Of the forks
of the Des Moines and Boone rivers,
and while it could not be proven,
suspicion has rested heavily on him.
A number of fires have occurred in
the neighborhood, one of the latest
being the Frank c. Eslick house and
barn, which was undoubtedly set on
fire while the family was away from
home. The blame was laid at Brick
er's door and the neighbors around
about started to hunt up his caves
and dwellings, with the result that
he was cornered and taken to Dayton
and the sheriff notified to get him.

With the experience gained through
his long time membership in the

Too Much Pressure.

Ellsworth News: Monday evening
while experimenting with a motor
cycle at the Watts & Atkinson gar
age, Scott Ellsworth and c. Arch Will
Jams furnished the people on the
street with a little unlocked for ex-
element.
They had installed a prestolite
tank on the cycle and had connected
it up with the headlight so as to fur
nish illumination for night travel
ing. In opening the valve on the
tank to light it they did not allow
for the extra amount of pressure be-
hind the gas and when the stream
was lit, a jet of flame eight or ten
feet long burst out.
Not wishing to endanger the gar
age building they gave the motorcy-
Gle one big push with the result that
it went rushing out of the front door
into the middle of the street.
A bucket of water soon put out the
flame, and outside of a broken refiec-
tor, no damage was done.
