TRUSTY MAKES ESCAPE FROM
PEN. UP FOR BURGLARY

Sioux Falls: Taking French leave,
Leroy Benson, convict No. 1878 at the
state penitentiary here, a trusty at the
farm, left here some time yesterday
afternoon and at a late hour last
night had not been apprehended.
Benson, according to Warden
George T. Jameson, had been working
alone cutting weeds with a scythe on
the prison farm. He reported at noon
for dinner at the farm house, but fail
ed to make an appearance at supper
time, 6 o'clock. .
Immediately after he was missed
prison authorities telephoned and tele-
graphed nearby towns to be on the
lockout for the escaped convict. Mr..
Jameson believes Benson may have
taken a train.
Benson was sentenced May 5, 1921,
from Beadle county, having been con-
victed there on a charge of third de-
gree burglary. Early this spring he
was made a trusty and given work
on the farm, a short distance north Of
the prison.
Those who had charge of him said
he was a good worker and that he
never made any trouble.
At a recent meeting of the board OF
charities and corrections the board
recommended his parole and it is now
in the hands of the governor. Mr.,
Jameson said last night that Benson's
walking away would mean the cancel
ling of his parole.

American President

Aberdeen American - President
Harding Is dead.
The report coming owe the wire SO
soon after the news that he vas out
1of danger, Is almost unbelievable.
Soon, as is the way OF the world, we
will begin to think of his successor
and or the effect his death will have
upon the policies and destinies OF the
nation and OF the political party OF
which he was the head.
But, today, the heart Is filled with
grief for Harding. the nan No
straighter, cleaner, kindlier man ever
occupied the White House. No breath
OF scandal v attached to the name
of Warren G.. Harding, even though
the strong ~searchlight of political en-
nifty was thrown upon every act OF his
career.
He was typical of the best manhood
that America can produce. One might
disagree with his policies but his mo-
tives and his good intentions could not
be questioned.
1t seems pitiful, that this man
should die, in the prime of his man
hood, with so much to live for, with
his heart and mind so filled with the
things that he would do for his coun-
try. For we want TO tell you that
Warren G.. Harding was a patriot. He
loved his country and his fellow man.
Right or wrong, we know that Warner
Harding was actuated by a sor-
did motive, never placed any other
interest before the interests of his
country, of your interests and ours.
There are tears In our eyes for the
faithful, loving wife, who was his
heart companion through all the years
OF struggle and OF triumph. May the
compassionate God send her comfort
in this, hour OF bitter grief.
God reigns, and the government al
Washington still lives" Our country
will survive the loss OF any man; We
know that. but now we mourn not only
the death of the President, but OF ont
Of the straightest, truest Americana
who ever lived.

HIKING, NEW YORK TO FRISCO

Dr. Burton F. Kreyer, who is walk
ing from New York to San Francisco
to win an $500 wager, and at the
same time recuperate from the eff
fects of poison gas, called at The Her
aid Office last Friday to register The
doctor, who appears to be about so
years of age, served in France with
a Canadian unit. His former home
was at Port Essington, B. c., but un-
til the first of May he had been in
Military hospital, New York
City. Besides being severely gassed
the doctor says he received four
wounds.
The feat he is undertaking is to
travel from ones city to another on
foot between May 1st and December
81. He is allowed to catch auto
rides, but must stay off from trains.
He says he is wearing his fifth pair
of shoes since starting. Judging
from his progress, and barring bad
luck, the doctor should win the wager
and surely he has our very best
wishes.

before she died she gave premature
birth to baby girl, who is living and
reported as doing well. Another lit
tie girl, age two and a half, is left
motherless. The body was shipped to
Mrs. Hauge's former home in Min
nesota.
VIM. Hauge is son of Helge
Hauge of the Southside and came
here with his wife from North Da-
kota about year ago. For time
they lived on farm on the Southside
but moved to Wolf Point about two
months ago. Mr.. Hauge is employed
at one of the elevators.
Mrs. Hauge was taken sick only
few days before her death but proved
to be in such condition that medical
aid was powerless to save her. 1t is
an exceedingly sad case and the be-
reaved relatives have the sincere
of the community.

the county whose princess she will
be. After the princesses come to

with one another at the full week of
social events given in their honor
dansants, teas, receptions, breakfasts,
dinners, plunge parties, motor trips
and wide variety of other affairs

princess they deem most worthy of
the State of Montana
as whole as the Queen.
The expenses Of the princesses to
Helena and the State Fair are taken
care of by their Helena hosts and
the girls are chaperoned during their
stay in the Capital City by women of |
high standing.
The 1928 princesses will arrive in
Helena the day the fair opens-Sep-
