MET GRIEF WITH CANOE

Bemidji Sentinel:-John Koors and
Louis Neumann, who completed a
large part of their proposed trip from
"Pine to Palm,' before their canoe
struck sunken wing of a dam near
Hannibal, Missouri, arrived in Bemidji
Wednesday morning.
The disaster occurred at dangerous
part of the river and Louis Neumann
had a narrow escape: A spiral Logging
became unwrapped and caught his
feet so that he had to call upon Koors
for assistance in reaching shore. Their
complete equipment was lost in the ac-
cident and although their. canoe and
paddles were saved, the boys decided,
through paternal request, to return
home. ',,--sr, -
The boys thoroughly enjoyed their
trip, although hardships took much of
the pleasure out of the trip. The boys
were royalty entertained by the cities
along the route and have gained a
world Of publicity. through their effort.
Former attempt to traverse the entire
length Of the river have failed and so
far is known, Koors and Neumann set
a new record in reaching Hannibal.
Had it not been for the disaster, the
boys would doubtlessly have reached
their destination.
The boys passed through Little Falls
on their down river journey about
three weeks ago.

tioning the pleasure of meeting so
many Of his old friends, spoke Of the
success of the Knight of Columbus dur
ing the war, and their great after-the-
war program, especially dwelling on the
Americanization and educational feat
ures. He spoke Interestingly for moro
than an hour. -
Many interesting swimming and field
sports were pulled off. The tug-of-war
between Buckman and Randall was a
good one, neither giving ground for
some minutes. Buckman swerved to
one side and lost their chance, Randall
pulling them over for the win. The
ball game between the Fats and the
Leans also furnished much amusement
and was won by the Fats. Diving by
George Fortier and Walter Sprandel
was good attraction. Events were
pulled off as per schedule and all SEEM
ed well satisfied with the outing.

NC COOL IS CAUGHT
BACK In PRISON
ESCAPED MURDERER CAUGHT
WHEN HE STOPS SEARCHERS
e.. AND ASKS FOR A RIDE

Frank McCool, murderer, who escap-
ed from the st. Peter state hospital for
criminal insane Monday night, was re-
captured Wednesday on the public
highway between New Richland and
Waseca. =
His capture came when he stopped
an automobile containing Frank Whit
tier, state parole agent, and R. E. Mel
son, secretary to the warden of Still
water penitentiary, and asked them
for ride. McCool failed to recognize
the two men, who were looking for
him. Both the men recognized the fug-
tive and his surrender at the point Of
two pistols followed shortly. i
$50 W ednesdays capture of McCool
marked the end of a 40-hour period of
worry throughout southern Minnesota.
McCool was known to be brutal and
desperate criminal, who held human
life SO cheaply, he would not hesitate
to kill any person whom he feared
might betray him.
Immediately following the rearrest
of the fugitive, DR.. r. M. Phelps, su-
perintendent of St. Peter hospital, who
was in conference with board of con-
troll members at the state capitol at
the time, signed a statement that Nc
Cool was sane. He had been trans
ferred from the penitentiary to the hos
pital two months ago for observation
Of his mental condition, after he had
become violent and exhibited other
symptoms of insanity.
The board of control at once COM
municated DR.. Phelps findings to Mr.:
Whittier and Mr.. Nelson and directed
them to take their prisoner to Still:
water instead Of returning him to st.
Peter.

WEED ERADICATION
WEEK Is ON HERE
COUNTY INSPECTORS URGE CITI-
ZENS TO HELP RID CITY OF
NOXIOUS WEEDS

Eradicate the noxious weeds-that is
the slogan in Little Falls during Weed
Week, which started Wednesday and
continues until next Wednesday, Aug.
10. Weed Inspectors r. c. Tedford and
Sam Hammerbeck designated Aug. 3 to
10 as Weed Week and they urge the
cooperation Of every citizen here in
the eradication of noxious weeds.
At the regular meeting of the city
council Monday evening, an appropria-
tion was made to the county weed in
spectors to engage an assistant in this
city. NJ. C. Davis has been appointed
and he is inspecting the entire city. !.
1t is the hope Of the weed inspectors
that the. citizens will cooperate will.
ingly in this movement. The weeds
should be cut or pulled up now, before
they go to seed. Most weeds are an
nuals and if destroyed before they go
to seed, they will be comparatively few
next year.
The state law governing the eradica-
tion of weeds provides that in cases
where property owners fail to cut
weeds, after having been notified by
the inspectors, the inspectors may pro-
ceed to have the work done and have
the cost assessed against the property
together with a penalty. The local in
spectors do not anticipate the necessity
'of any such action and hope that the
citizens will lend their hearty co-opera-
tion in the weed eradication movement.
Owners, renters or occupants Of city,
farm and town property in every part
of the county are required, say the
county inspectors, to cut and destroy
all weeds including house yards and
back lots. Thistle and quack grass must
be cut and destroyed repeatedly until
the 18th of October
