THREE OTHER
WARRANTS ISSUED
H. J. Schwartz, Arrested a Few Days
Ago, Again Arrested On Charge
of Keeping $5,250.
Kelsey Chase, state bank examiner, was in tbe city Wednesday and caused warrants to be
issued for Stephen, H. J. and
Henry Schwartz, all of Royalton, and O. H. Havill of Minneapolis, formerly of St. Cloud.
The warrant for Mr. Havill
charges liim, as president of the
State bank at Bowlus, of accepting* a deposit for $115 from
O. Magnuson when he (Havill)
knew the bank to be insolvent.
Deputy Sheriff Heroux left
Thursday morning for Minnea
polis to serve the warrant and
bring Havill to Little Falls.
They will probaby come up tonight.
Stephen Schwartz, president
of the Royalton State bank, is
charged with taking a deposit
from Herman Jenning for $600
when the bank wos known to be
insolvent.
Henry Schwartz, vice president of the Royalton institution,
is charged with accepting a deposit of $807.55 from Prank
Wildasin after the bank had become insolvent.
The most serious charge of all
is against H. J. Schwartz, cashier of the Royalton State bank-
He is charged with keeping
$5,'250 given him by E. E.
Crowe of Morrill town to be
paid G. Ferguson. It appears
that Crowe purchased land
from Ferguson and later paid
over to Schwartz $5,250 to be
paid Ferguson. Schwartz the
warrant reads, acted as agent
for Crowe, and never paid Ferguson the money.
The Messrs. Schwartz, as soon
as apprised that warrants had
been issued for them, came to
Little Falls and appeared be-
fore4Tustice Randall Thursday
aftenfi>on. Through their attorney; W. F. Donohue of Melrose, they asked for a continuance to September 13 at 1 o'clock p. m. This was granted
and bonds for Stephen Schwartz
and Henry Schwartz were placed at $4,000 each. For H. J.
Schwartz the amount of bonds
was fixed at $2,000. These bonds
will have to be approved by
Judge Taylor of St. Cloud.
Bondsmen were being secured
late Thursday.
H. J. Schwartz has already
furnished a bond of $3,000 on a
previous-charge.—Transcript.
CREAM SEPARATOR BLOWS UP
Bemidji Pioneer: On the
farm of Carl Maltrude near
Becida, and accident which
might have resulted seriously-
occurred while Mrs. Maltrude
was operating* her cream separator, skimming* the morning's milk, when suddenly
and without warning the machine exploded.
The milk and cream were
sent flying in every direction
covering the entire room with
a white coat. Mrs. Maltrude,
it is reported, was struck
with some of the flying pieces
and rendered unconsciously.
The machine was an Economy as a result it is out of
commission. The separator
is sold by a mail order house.

Alfalfa Raised In Morrison Co.
About four years ago while
living on Edward street in the
place now owned by Christ
Tembruell, we sowed a small
patch of Alfalfa about the
first week in Ju'y. By October the fiftheenth, this Alfalfa had grown to a height of
fifteen to eighteen inches.
The following spring the
patch was p'owed under for
a vegetable garden, but in
spite of repeated hoeings, the
alfalfa continued to come up
among the vegetables. And
even the year following with
another plowing the alfalfa
was not entirely eradicated.
Eight years ago, Karl Kapsner sowed some alfalfa seed
in a neglected and out-of-the-
way corner near his pasture
fence. Karl now reports that,
though he gave it no further
attenion and that his cattle
had frequent access to it, the
patch has continued to increase in area and density.
He had two cuttings from it
this } ear; and had he not turned the c attle into it, he could
have cut it once more.
These two successful attempts prove conclusively
that alfalfa can be raised in
Morrison county. Do not expect to get a heavy stand the
first year. For a heavy s'and,
the soil must be inocculated
with ground from an alfalfa
field, or by repeated sowings
of the seed until the seed bed
contains the sufficient number of bacteria.
Cucumbers As a Side Line
Martin Dering, a farmer
living near the Twin lakes on
the west side, was in the city
Saturday and with his cream
brought in some cucumbers.
Mr. Dering has a one-quarter
acre patch of cucumbers. He
stated that so far this season
he has received $23.05 for
them and if frost does not
come too soon he will receive
$10 or $12 more for the balance, or at the rate of $140
per acre. It is evident bv
this that it pays to raise cu-
cunabers as a side line. A
farmer who goes to town with
his cream and produce is ob-
to make the trip at least once
a week and a supply of cucumbers could easily be taken
along without taking any unnecessary time. Cucumbers
are easily marketed there being no trouble to dispose of
them. Referring to the above
case as an increase in business of one individual,certainly a large increase would be
made generally if more people
would take advantage of the
growing of cucumbers.—

"I have lived in Morrisou

chair against the wall.
"I have lived there thirty
years," said Henrv Gassert,
"and if you'll go with me this
afternoon, I'll show you the
finest town and the best farming country under the sun."
It was a gr>. The three
county commissioners came
out in George Kfewel's auto;
Gassert was taken to his
home in north Buh and Mr.
Viechouk and Mr. Herum
returned to Little Falls with
George in the evening.

.Mrs. Henry 'Christie
two small children were
brought to town last Thursday afternoon suffering terrible agony from burns received when a barn rn the farm
four miles east of here burned. The burns were dres
by local doctors and the sufferers were hurried to the
Little Falls hospital in automobiles at once.
Particulars of the accident
|are scarce, but reports state
that the two children -.vein'
pkuinein the barn, several
rods from the house. Mrs.
Christie was alone at the
house when she discovered the
flames issuing from the barn.
The children's cries attracted her, coming from beyond
the flames in the rear ( I the
hayloft, and without a thot < f
the dreadful consequence to
herself, the frantic mother
made her «av ever the blazing hay, making two trips
thru the seething flames lo
rescue her babies. All three
were severely burred about
the face and shoulders, skin
and fli_sh being scorched entirely eff in many places.
All were resting- as coin-
fortablyjas could be hoped upon their arrival at the hospital and the greatest danger
now will follow from
to the lungs thru]
cf flames and smoke.
Mr. Christie, Mr. and Mrs.
F. H. Lakin, parents of Mrs*.
Christie and Dr. Watson accompanied them to the hospital.
The barn in which the accident occurred was burned
to the ground with most of
its contents.-Royal ton Banner.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they
cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and
that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred
Dollars for any case of Deafness that cannot be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for
