When Gilbert Parker wrote his
famous novel "The Right of
Way" thirty years ago he intro
duced one of his characters, Char
ley Steele, as the victim Of am
nesia. At that time it was a dis
ease but little known. The ed
itor of this paper discussed the
subject with DR.. c. w. Hargens
of Hot Springs, S. d. at that time
DR.. Hargens said the story was not
overdrawn-that Gilbert Park
cr's character might be introduced
into real life some time. After a
quarter of century of waiting
the fiction of Parker has become
the fact of Hit. What we i'm
agine to-day will be the reality of
tomorrow. During this genera
ton people will not only be able
to receive radio messages, but they
will be able to send them back.
When that's perfected, we can sit

|AATE MANNHEIM
TO SALTWATER.
SENTENCED TO AN. INDETER.
INMATE TERM FOR THE
KILLING OF JOHN
STEIN.

Aate Manainen, convicted of
manslaughter in this city at the last
term of, court by a jury and who
since his conviction has been at the
county Jail at Virginia, appeared be-
fore Judge Hughes at Hibbing Mon
day and received sentence of an
indeterminate nature at the Still
water penitentiary. Manslaughter
carries with it sentence of from
5 to 20 years and it is supposed his
sentence will mean anything over
five years according to his behavior.
Attorney Jerry A. Harri of this
city who represented Manninen at
the trial assisted by Attorney De-
Witt Adkins of. Duluth, was at Hib-
bling and appeared before Judge
Hughes and made a motion for a
new trial, which was denied.
The case will be remembered here
by those who listened to the testi-
mony. The killing of John Stein,
with which Manninen was charged,
was the outcome of "a drunken brawl
at the Manninen place at Winton.
In the melee which followed Stein
was struck on the head with a gun
barrel and he died at a local hos
pital few hours later.
