WOMAN OUT ON BAIL
Mrs. Mary Olson Sought To Kill
Citizen of Rochester

Rochester, August 5.-Mrs. Mary
Olson. the farmers wife living at
Salem Corners. who was arrested
yesterday morning because she at
tempted to kill Evan Roheim with
a thirty two calibre revolver as he
was passing her farm in his car, has
been released from Jail on 81 200
bail, and her preliminary trial set
for next week.
When being taken in by the off :,
GERS, Mrs. Olson said: 81 intended
but after twenty four hours spent
in the county Jail, her thirst for re-
Ivense for, an alleged wrong seemed
to cool a bit and she was glad to
be released on bail on the promise
of good behavior.
Mrs. Olson's attempt to kill Evan
Roheim, farmer and local carpen-
ter, yesterday grew out OF her
brooding during the last nine or ten
months. She charged when arraign-
ed in court yesterday that Rohe1m
was guilty of an assault on her
nearly a year ago and she had MIN
arrested at the time. The case Jas
dismissed from court, but not from
Mrs. Olson's mind. Her broodlng
finally took the form Of resolution
and she went down town short
time ago and purchased cheap 81
calibre revolver and a box of car
Aware OF the time that Roheim
went to work in the morning, and
knowing that he must pass her
place, she loaded her gun, and hid
BY the roadside. When she sight
ed Roheim in the distance she made
herself seen and called to him to
stop. The frightened man only
threw his car into high speed ana
bending low, drove past. Mrs. Ol.
son took aim and fired. Her shoe
missed its mark and she fired agar
and again.
Roheim, unhurt, speed into town
and informed the county attorney,
who swore out a warrant for her
arrest and sent the sheriff and po-
Iiceman out to secure her.

K. A. COURIER is OPPOSED
TO SWAN LAKE DRAINAGE
Former Nicoiiet County Nan Writes
Letter On The Subject

Former Nicoiiet County Man Writes
-. Letter On The Subject
A letter from X. A. Currler former
ly OF Nicollet county, who went TO
Sutherltn. Oregon. in June of this
year, because of Mrs. Curriers' ILL
ness, states that the family are
comfortably located on their fruit
ranch and Mrs. CurTier is fast re-
gaining her health. Mr.. Currier ex-
posses the hope that they may re-
turn 10 good old Minnesota some
day.
Writing of the proposed drainage
OF Swan Lake, Mr.. Currier says: Il
read an article in The Daily Free
Press some time ago about a meet
ing held in New Ufm with reference
10 the drainage or towering OF Swan
Lake and was very much pleased to
learn that there was so much senti-
ment against it Shortly before
leaving st. Peter | read an article
IN the st. Peter Herald written by
5. o. Peterson of Brighton stating
that when the lake was high in the
srrlng it overlooked and flooded his
land, making II unfit for cultivation
and almost II not wholly useless. If
| remember rightly that was his
statement. | do not wish to enter
into d controversy with any of my
old neighbors. but / lived on the
shores of Swan Lake for fifty slA
years and / never saw it so but
once and that was the year of the
hail storm and food in 1908. Then
the water in the lake receded more
quickly than it did in the marshes
back from the lake, so | fail to see
where Mr.. Peterson has reason for
such a statement. Then, too. the
old lake was there when his father
homesteaded his farm in an early
day, when he could have had his
choice OF most any land in the
county or surrounding country, and
II he has paid for land that he
cannot use because of high water in
Swan Lake l do not understand it
did not. l used more land while
had the farm on the shores of Swan
Lake than / paid for. II has been
said that the hunters want to save
the lake so that they can get a few
ducks but | am sure that l. hot their
chief thought, and living where |
did on the old farm and being in
the business / was | feel that | am
qualified to judge such matters.
Swan Lake is large body OF water,
fringed with beautiful woods, max
ing ideal camping places for people
