LAND BEHIND BARS
Two Anto Thieves Nabbed
Near Albert Lea
POSSE ATTACKED THEM
Then the Car PiIfsrersThrew UP
Their Hands and
Surrendered

Albert Lea, October 26.-Two auto
thieves hwo stole the big Nash car
belonging to Lawrence Wayne OF Al
den, are now languishing behind the
steel bars in the Freeborn county jail.
They were brought to Albert Lea by
Deputy Sheriff Jensen and Nels Vol
lum. The two gave their names a;
Tom McLaine OF Kansas and l.. l,
Long of Missouri and have told all
to Sheriff Fosse and are wiling to
plead guilty before Judge Meighen
and commence their sentence at Still
water.
The arrest of the two men with the
car was really a streak of luck on the
part Of the Clarke county sheriff. he
had received one of the cards sent
out by Sheriff Fosse when the car was
first stolen. a
One Tuesday afternoon, October Is
the Clarke county sheriff received a
hurry up call into the country near
Osceola. Two outlaw men had been
located with stolen car. The deputy
and large posse-of men started on,
to arrest the outlaws and get the
stolen car If possible.
Pitched Battle Followed
As soon as the outlaws saw the
posse coming they opened fire. A
pitched battle ensued. One farmer
was instantly killed and the deputy
sheriff wounded. The outlaws then
left the car. One of them ran up to
the sheriff and fired his big automatic
three times pointed within foot OF
the sheriff's face. 1t couldn't have
been the time for the sheriff to die
for none of the three shells exploded
under the click of the revolver firing
pin. -
The outlaws then left the road and
made a clean get away through
field.
AS the posse headed by the sheriff
went in pursuit they ran onto the
Nash car, parked near the road. The
two QUITO thieves were found TO Dt
asleep.
~ Opened Fire On Car
Some say that it is better to keeI
your heads in a time of excitement
but here is one time that an excited
crowd did exactly the right thing
They opened up on the car from al
sides. The sleeping bandits awakened
to holding their hands high above
their heads, yelling the while: DOM
shoot us! Quit shooting! We will sur
render! We stole the carl"
Both of them were heavily armed
with forty five automatics and woul(
undoubtedly have put up desperate
battle had they not been caugnL nap
ping.
Before the shooting ceased, the
Nash car had shots through the wind
shield, the radiator, top and Other
parts of the body.
The sheriff didn't know that the
car was Lawrence Wayne's until he
got the men in Jail at Osceoia anC
read the description on the car sen,
out by Sheriff Fosse.

Egan Hansen is lanquishing in the

appeared Sunday evening, while Mp.
Swanson was attending services at
the Methodist church.
They work as fast in Martin county
as they do in Blue Earth courtyard
that is going some. The crooks set

for the officials. Hansen found this out
to his sorrow yesterday. The story In
brief is: At eight thirty Sunday even
ing the car was stolen, four A. NJ.
Monday, IN car was returned, six A.
M. Hansen in custody.
He Admits Guilt
Hansen seems to be willing to ad-
NIT his guilt and, the story OF his IS
capade is as follows. Sunday after
moo he attempted to rent car from
the Finn livery for, the purpose OF tax
ing young lady to the dance, but as
Finn was aloof to let him have one he
took it upon himself to help himself
to the most convenient one, which
happened to be that of A. j. Swanson.
With car in his possession, Egan,
called for two Fairmont young ladies,
who were waiting for him at tie

broIner of one young lady would not
see them he drove the car around to
the rear door where he met the girls.
1t seems that Egan mad made ar
engagements with E. E. Collision az
Blue Earth to come over after him,
SO after purchasing two gallons OF gas
cline at the Standard oil station they
started for Blue Earth, returning to
Hands park for the dance.
Was At Hands Park
Hand had Just completed checking
up the cars in the park looking for
the one that was missing before they
drove in SO failed to notice this one.
The boys evidently did not care to
dance so after few dances the party
again started for. Fairmont, taA-ly
the young ladies to their homes and
leaving the car in the same place
from where it was taken.
Hansen was takenin custody at
Blue Earth where he was staying with
Collision, il is believed that he had
hoped to catch a train to St Paul
Egan Hanson appeared In justice
court at nine o'clock yesterday and
was held to the district court. Judge
Gamble set the bond at five hundred
dollars No one seems anxious to FUR
nish the bond and the young man was
remanded to the custody of the Sheriff
Collision is under bonds to appear
