Schools Close Thursday.

The public schools of Redwood Falls
will be closed for the summer vaca-
tion next Thursday and the students
as well as the graduates will breathe a
sigh of relief. To the youngsters
vacation means lots of loafing and
having good time generally, but to
the graduates it means something
more vital, it means taking up the du-
ties Of citizenship and the carrying
on Of his or her part of the cherished
principals of our free government and
our free institutions. To the young
man just entering the business world
we wish to say that something more
is required Of you than the knowledge
gained at school and your proficiency
ii knowing how to hold cigarette at
right angle. Business men require
brains as q first requisite, and second,
gentlemaply conduct at all times.
These are the things that count.

Hotel Ramsey Till Was
Robbed Friday Morning
THE THIEF SAID HE STOLE BE-
CAUSE HE NEEDED THE
MONEY.

James Donovan, who was recently
engaged from Minneapolis to act as
night clerk at the hotel Ramsey, filch-
ed the till last Friday morning of $48,
some jewelry and clothing, and then
beat it out of town. Sheriff L. J.
kise was notified of the robbery and
with his deputy began securing the
country for the fugitive.
Mr.. Kise made short work of the af-
fair, and by getting busy Immediately
and by a little fast work he landed his
man at Morgan and brought him back
to Redwood Falls. The articles stolen
were found on his person, and he apol-
ogized for the theft by saying that
he needed the money.
The young man plead guilty of the
charge when arranged before G. F.
Martin, judge of the municipal court.
Saturday morning he was taken to
New Ulm where the district court is
in session to receive sentence, but
we learn that Judge Olsen had the
case postponed for a week.
The unfortunate young fellow acts as
though he was irresponsible, and the
entire proceedings covering the rob-
berry does not indicate the careful
planned work of criminal mind. The
fact that he did not plan on catching
an outgoing train from here instead
of walking to Morgan, indicates that
he is creature of impulse and irra-
tional mind.
Sheriff kise is to be conpiimented
on the quick manner in which be made
the capture. He has had exceptionally
good luck in every case brought to
his attention in the past, and is hop
ing that it will continue 80. However.
it is not all luck, rather some fast ac-
tion that has contributed to his sues
cess.
