Persuades Men to Yield
Father Holland in his interview
with the Tribune stated that the men
requested him to give them shelter
and hiding place until dark but that
he refused and at the same time
sought to reason with them-and per-
suade them to give themselves up.
Wheeler was very nervous and easily
convinced but Mike was more threat
ening and malicious in his looks. At
ter a long period of discussion. and
hot debate tie men finally consented
to give themselves up if the priest
would accompany them to the jail as
protection. This Father Holland
promised to do. AS the three had
stepped out OF the house he fire
whistle blasted out its call. The men
made their way down. Sixth Street
They surmised it was a fire call. AS
they walked towards the Jail they saw
several automobiles, crowded with
men and armed with CONSPICUOUS riff
les, speed towards the West.
The trio arrived about four thirty
o'clock and found E. P. Brogren and
several women with Mrs. Bonde. Rev.
Holland informed those upstairs that
he had the two men in custody. Soon
the Jail was visited by a. number of
men who had arrived for curiosity's
sake but were surprised to find the
prisoners with the preacher. A call
was sent for Isaac Nordstrom who ar

over close to her and declared that
they were indeed "sorry that we had
to do this while one man sought to

they locked the doors and set the

While Mrs. Bonde was lying on the
floor Mike produced black weapon

pursuers if necessary. Mrs. Bonde
was very much frightened when the
man menacingly waved the pistol be-
fore her. The fact that the men
showed a revolver caused the search

When the men were returned to the
jail an examination was made of the
'revolver" and it was found to have
been Of "home made" manufacture.
It consisted Of two match boxes form
ing a butt, roll of paper for bar
rel and the covering of book for the
covering for the barrel. The fake
pistol was we'll made. Copper wire
was used to hold the pieces together.
A loop for the trigger was also made.
Those who have inspected the wea'

work and would easily deceive even

Hands Loosely Bound
After the men had left, Mrs. Bonde
found that they had done a poor job
in binding her hands and in a few
moments had them free. She then
rushed upstairs, exhausted and ter
