Judge Spooner this afternoon sentenced Stephen M. Collins, alias Archie Keene, to the state reformatory, where he will serve five years unless his conduct is good enough to warrant the board of managers of the insti tution to release him on parole.

The same night he was arrested at Duluth, brought back to Be midji the next day, and today he received his sentence.

Sheriff Louis Gonyea of Crooks- ton was in the city today on his way back to Crookston in com- pany with Theodore Larson, the self confessed murderer of Nels Nelson at Crookston on Nov. 16, 1903. Larson has made a full con- fession in writing to the justice of the peace at Northome, and the confession has been sworn to by him. He fully admits that he killed Nelson with an axe while crossing a bridge at Crooks- ton and that afterwards he threw the bedy into the river, He says that the reason for giving him self up is that since the commis- sion of the crime he has not en- joyed a moment’s rest and that his conscience has troubled him to such an extent that attimes he has been driven almost mad. SheriffGonyea denies the story circulated from Crookston to the effect that a mob had attempted to hold the prisoner at Northome because there had been no war rant issued for the arrest of Lar son, and says that the only reason that Larson was not immediately taken back to Crookston after he had made his confession is that he did not wish to have a man in charge who had confessed to such a serious crime withouta warrant in- his posession. He states that during his s ay at Northome he received the best of treatment {rom the poaople of that village and that not the least sign of any attempt to interfere with-him was made. Larson’s mind is not un- balanced;as it was first supposed, as he was examined by a doctor at Northome, who declared him to be mentally sound. Larson states- that he is 52 years of age. Whether or not he has a family is unknown. Heis a wreck physically and when taken from the M. & I. depot to the Beltrami county jail this moraing could scarcely walk. Former Auditors Haner and Syl vester were referred to the county attorney for investigation.
