He politely told them to leave the car. At thesame time a train backed a sleeping car against the private “lumberjack” car with such a force that Mr, Hawkes was knocked to the floor, and two of the uninvited passen- gers set upon him and one took away his pocketbook. 2 Now, Hawkes, in his younger days, was a decidedly “warm’ individual with his fists and feet and teeth and every other artifice known to the scrapping frater- nity, and although well advanced in years he is still far from being an infant, and he “tied into” the would-be vhieves and soon bad them both by the throats, where he held them until an officer put inan appearance and took them to jul. _Next day the men who had at- tempted to relieve Hawkes of his money were arraigned in justice court, where they plead not guilty and were bound over to the district court. *Dick” is there for the triai, and will un- dounbtedly give a good account of himself. = John Croon, a logger and the Crookston herd are exceed- ingly proud of their accomplish- ments ard are gloating over the surprise they have in store for the “bunch” here tomorrow SATISFAC- when they turm their melody SE LTS loose.
