YOUNG COUPLE ARE
|. ARRESTED MONDAY
HARD BOILED PAIR CHARGED
WITH LOOTING MELRoSE
I. STORE SUNDAY
In JAIL AT ST. CLOUD
ACTIONS AROUSED SUSPICION
AND INVESTIGATION DIS
CLOSED STOLEN GOODS

A pair of hard-boiled young peo-
pie were arrested in Sank Centre
early Monday morning by Chief Of
Police Miller, charged with robbery.
The man about "a years of age,
gave his name as V. Underwood of
Zimmerman, Mimi, and the girl,
apparently about II or 10, gave her
name as Muriel Turner of Huron, S.
D.
They were first seen in Sank Cen
tire Sunday when the car was brought
TO the Sturr Motor Co. for repairs.
About ten o'clock Sunday evening
the Buick car was taken out and
they were not seen again until about
200 o'clock Monday morning when
the car was again brought to the gar
age for further repairs. They left
about six and when they reached a
point near the Public School play
grounds on Fourth street, they be-
came stalled in the sand and abandon
ed the car.
Night Policeman Rosenberger be-
coming somewhat suspicious of the
pair located the abandoned car and
with the assistance of Joseph Kusba
made an investigation after strong
smell of moonshine was apparent. He
found under a blanket in the back
end of the car nine shirts and a new
suit of clothing bearing the tag Of
H. F. Loosbroek, Melrose. Mr.. Rosen-
berger Immediately got in touch with
Chief Miller as he came on, duty about
that time. Joe located the. girl and
without difficulty placed her in Jail.
The young man was captured after
a run in which several local people as
sisted and shot was fired by the
chief.
Mr.. Loosbroeck was informed Of
the robbery by Chief Miller and in
vestlgation showed that his store had
been entered by breaking the glass in
tile front door sometime durilg the
night. He Immediately came to Sank
Centre and identified the merchandise
as having been removed from his
store. In conversation with the Her.
aid Mr.. Loosbroek said that nothing
except the stolen goods had been mo-
Tested and the cash registers escaped.
He swore warrant before Mu aicipaI
Judge r. R. Kells and Monday af-
ternoon Chief Miller took the prison.
ers to st. Cloud and placed them in
custody of Sheriff Ben Schooner.
At a preliminary hearing held at
st. Cloud Tuesday the pair waved ex-
animation and were bound over to the
DE cember term of the Stearns county,
District court at which time County
Attorney James Quigley will present
the evidence and ask for an indict-
ment. They were remanded to Jail
to wait the grand jury's action.
The girl claims to own The car
which has South Dakota license,
She said that the young man was her
pal. She smoked cigarettes like,
veteran and had cline" that was
snappy. The car is stored at the
Starr Motor Co. garage in this city.

WADENA MAN LOSES
UNUSUAL LAW SUIT
AFTERMATH OF FAILURE of
LITTLE SAUk STATE BANK
IN JANUARY
$3.50 LOST In SHUTTLE
LIAM COMPANY DENIED MEL
SON AND HENDRICKSON
WERE ITS AGENTS

Inc case of w. ]. Coil against A.
d. Hendrickson, L. H. Nelson. the
Little Sank State bank and the Saw
lngs Loan e Trust company, of Madi-
son, Wis, took up the time of the
.odd County County District court
LUZ Two days or more last
week. Ihe case came to am abrupt
end when Judge Parson suddenly
granted the motion of Attorney Con-
slant Larson for the Savings Loan
trust company that the case
against the company be dismissed.
The granting of this motion had
the effect of Diminishing the en-
tre case, because, although it NAV
nave been possible to secure a iudg-
ment against the other defendants. il
appeared to be the opinion of Mr.. Coil
that judgment against the Loan
company would be the only one that
could be collected. When the Judge
dismissed the case against the Loan
company, Mr.. Coil decided to drop
the rest of the case.
The case was more or less pecul-
lar; in fact, no other case like it has
ever come up i'm the Todd county
court. Mr.. Coil is farmer well
past seventy years of age, who lives
In Wadena county. He was solicit
ed by Mr.. Hendrickson and Mr.. Mel
son to let them make him a real es-
tate loan. He had a loan on his
farm which was due and the mort
gage was about to be foreclosed. Mr..
Coil gave an application to Messrs
Hendrickson and Nelson and later
signed a mortgage and gave his note
for $6,150, his understanding being
that this loan would be used to take
up the first loan with interest and
other accumulated expenses.
1t seems that the first mortgage
was foreclosed and the time ran
along without Mr.. Hendrickson, who
was making the loan for the Savings
Loan & Trust company, using the
proceeds of his loan to, take up the
first mortgage. The evidence show
ed that the Loan company had sent
him a check for the $3.50. Al
though he had this check nearly a
year, the period of expiration of re-
demption on the first mortgage fore
closure sale went by without the
money being used to redeem and Mr..
Coil lost his land.
Mr.. Coil claimed that his equity in
the land was in the neighborhood of
$4,000 and he brought suit against
the above named defendants to Sc
cure judgment for the amount of his
equity.
The case was somewhat compli-
Gated, the defense of Mr.. Hendrick-
son being that the title to the Coil
land was not clear and he could not
pay over the money until it was
clear. The defense of the Savings
Loan & Trust company was that Mr.
Hendrickson was not its represents
tive and that it therefore could not
be held or bound by his action OF
neglect to act.
1t seems there was a second and
third mortgage on the land and in
order to make the loan negotiated by
Mr.. Hendrickson the first mortgage,
he had arranged with the holders OF
the second and third mortgages to
Gift" their mortgages temporarily
SO as to enable the Savings Loan &
Trust company loan to, become first

Orize Scholarship Rules Changed

The State Board of Education in
session at Dover on Friday, authoriz-
ed minor changes in the rules and
regulations concerning scholarships.
The business manager was authorized
to sell old school buildings where con-
solidations have been made at Rice's
school house near Harrington in Kent
county, and Holly School, Sussex
county. The Board endirsed the mil
lion membership campaign for law
observance, in allowing the scholars
to sign cards. The business manager
was authorized to call upon all local
boards of trustees to whom allOtments
have been set up to file with the
State Department of Public Instruc-
tiOn on or before May 15, 1925, all
bills for repairs upkeep and mainten-
ance for the current school year. The
business manager was also authorized
to withdraw any unusual balance of
| the allotment for repairs, upkeep and
maintenance remaining in any school
district after such bills have been
paid, and apply any of said withdraw
ais to the payment of any excess
costs where allOttments have been in
sufficient to meet needs, or provide
for other repairs, upkeep and main
tenance costs which it may be advis-
able to undertake. The board was in
formed of the passage Of the act pro-
viding for the care and maintenance
of blind babies and blind children too
young or too backward to enter the
schools for the blind, giving the State
Board of Education power to provide
suitable care, maintenance and in
structions, and apprOpriating $14OC
for the year 1925 and $1,000 for each
and every year thereafter.
