BANDIT CONFESSES
TO BANK ROBBERY,
ECHO AUTO THEFT

refer Orescanln, 70 year old Du-
luth man who confessed participating
in the $4,000 hold-up of the Union
State bank of Montevideo October 26
and a series of other robberies, en-
countered swift justice a week fol-
lowing his arrest in Chicago and was
melted sentence Saturday of life
Imprisonment in the state peniten-
tiary at Saltwater.
Orescanin pleaded guilty before
Judge Harold Baker after he had
made complete confession to Coun-
ty Attorney John Have and Sheriff
N. A. Petersen of Chippewa county,
in which he implicated Kermit
(Jacky) Anderson of Montevideo and
Nick Basti of Duluth. Anderson was
arrested Immediately following the
confession and after waving preli-
minary hearing Friday was bound
over to the grand jury. Basti, al
ready under indictment for partici-
pating in the bank robbery, is still
at large.
Although Anderson did not take
part in the actual holdup, County
Attorney Have stated the grand
jury will be asked to return an in
dictment on a bank robbery charge
against Anderson, carrying life i'm
prisonment sentence. According to
Orescanin's statement, Anderson
planned the robbery and received
$500 as his share.
According to the statement Ores
canin and Basti robbed the bank
while Anderson who made the plans,
waited for them short distance out
side of town. The three then separ-
ated and were to meet at Clearwater,
South Dakota that same night be-
tween six and nine but Anderson did
not show up.
He also disclosed series of other
stick-ups, including the hold-up OF
Knute Hustad, Echo garageman and
told of a collision the bandits car
had, the day of the Hustad "job",
with a truck driven by Otto Melges
of Redwood Falls.
The series of torays began Sept
ember 2, Orescanin said in his con-
fession, when he and Basti slugged
a man at Superior, Wisconsin, took
their victims automobile and then
drove to Montevideo where they join
ed Anderson. While Anderson was
arranging plans for the bank rob-
berry, Orescanin and Basti held-up an
oil station at Renville obtaining $50,
robbed the Park hotel at Candy OF
81 and an oil station at Ortonville of
$11.
While on their way to Marshall
October 2 the bandits car collided
with Mr.. Melges' truck near the Echo
Milling company elevator, badly
damaging their machine. Mr.. Melges
hauled their car to Hustad's garage.
When informed that it would be
sometime before the damaged ma
chine could be repaired, the two men
told the garageman that they were
federal officers and were in hurry
to get to Redwood Falls, asking Hus-
tad to drive them here. Midway be-
tween Echo and Redwood Falls, the
men ordered Hustad out of the car
at the point of a gun and drove away.
Other hold-ups before the bank
robbery were an oil station at Mar
shall where they obtained $50;
drug store at Glenwood, the loot con-
sisting of 20 cents and II packages
of cigarets and another oil station at
Hancock, where So was taken.

Feuds and
Lovers

New England hook-rugs and
five century oaks color the back
ground in Shining Amor" the
romance of a modern daughter
Of q staid old Puritan stock.
Certainly no fault could be
found with Sabra'S upbringing.
It was practically letter perfect.
It was simply a dash of Bohe-
milan blood inherited from q
vagabond father that caused
the trouble.
However, things go well
enough, until the son. Of her
aunt's girlhood sutton arouses
an old family feud by tumbling
from his parachute smack into
Sabra'S lily pond. This causes
high blood pressure all the way
around with various romantic
complications ensuing.
In the end, youth prevails
over tradition, thus concluding
a most enthusiastic tale.

waterway and built one on the
Virginia side Of the Potomac
What remains of it may be seen
near Great Falls. Washington's
dream was to bring the vast I'm.
explored West into contact with
the East by means Of a canal
which would open up the CONNER
cial resources of the western
wilderness and link it with the
Seaboard.
In January, 1924, the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal Company
was authorized by act Of the Vir-
ginia assembly; in December. 1924,
by Maryland and by the act of
Congress approved March 3, 1925.
In August, 1923, Patowmack Com
pany gave it's final consent to the
building Of the canal.
Shortly after John Quincy
Adams, as President of these
United States, broke ground for
the waterway which was to con-
meet Georgetown (then a part of
MarylanO, with the Ohio River.
The dignified Adams, accord
ing to the National Intel
ligencer," struck a root when he
first sank the spade into the
earth. He thereupon removed
his coat and really went to work. I"
Engineering Feat
Twenty-Five years later, after
hundreds of people had sunk
their fortunes in the new canal,
and the Maryland legislature had
waived the liens Of the State to
a limited extent so the Ches-
apeake and Ohio Canal Company
might finish it's waterway; the
canal was finally opened amid
much pomp and Splendor.
Says the Cumberland Civil
liam:
Con Thursday, the 10th Of
October, 1850. the opening Of
the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
for continuous navigation from
Cumberland to Alexandra, was
cOmmemOrated at this place
with appropriate ceremonies"
"At about 8 o'clock a large
asSemblage had collected in the
street before the United States
and Barnum'S Hotels. Captain
Davidson with a battery Of two
handsome pieces arrived and
performed various military
evOlutiOnS in o manner that
would have done credit to .
veteran CORPS"
But the railroads superseded
the canal and WaShington'S
dream may end ultimately in q
roadway from which speeding
motorists may gaze on the lovely
Potomac. Future generations may
not even know they are driving
over what was once considered
the greatest engineering feat and
commercial enterprise Of its day.

Tripon fame, and the unfinished
Portrait of a Lady"
The unfinished portrait, though
less known than most Of Gilbert
Stuart's work, is similar in many
ways to the artists famous un-
finished portrait Of George Wash
ington.
One of Henry 1nman's best
works, his portrait of Col. Robert
Wetmore, is included in the exhi-
bition, and Rembrandt Peale's
torceful portrait Of colorful Presi-
dent Andrew Jackson was also
lent to the library.
Fine Prints
The fifth portrait IS one OF
President John Tyler by G. P. A.
Healy, a remarkably well pre-
served piece Of art.
An unusually fine collection Of
prints Of portraits by English
artists are being shown by the
library throughout the summer.
The prints are of portraits by
such illustrious artists as Gains
borough, Raeburn, Lawrence,
Reynolds, Romney and others.
Raeburn'S famous boy With a
Rabbit" is included in the collec-
ton, as well as a few of Gains
borough'S more famous paintings.
