Aubolee and Kroken, of the Viking Boat company, handed the following, taken from the Fosston Thirteen Towns: “On the best of authority we are informed that the story about the catching of the big fish exhibited by Col. Sradsvold one morning last week in a near-by lake, was purely a ‘fake’ yarn, and that in reality they were taken in Lake Bemidji by Aubolee & Kroken, of the Viking Boat Co. of Bemidji, famous as muskellunge fishermen.” The editor of the Piouneer really knows more than anybody else in Bemidji a2bout the big fish which Ccl. Stadsveld claims to have caught, over near Fosston. It is likely that the Colonel is endeavoring to emulate the example set by A. Kaiser and Lewis Lohn, who hooked the giant sword fish from Ouf lake, near Fosston; but we’re “onto” the Colonel. The fisk which the Colonel cIalms to have caught was really taken by A. O. Aubolee, who was given valiant assistance by his partner, A. O. Kroken. The gentlemen hooked this fish over at the mouth of the Mississippi river and the monster started down river at such a rapid rate that both gentlemen lost their hats and several locks- of hair by the breeze created as the boat went “‘sou’ by sou’east.” The fish finally got to the War- field dam, and with one wild plunge cleared the obstruction. The boat in which Aubolee and Kroken were riding caught on the dam and the line broke, the fish clearing the dam with such velocity that it landed in a tree a quarter of a mile beyond the dam, rudely disturbing the slumbers of a large, horned owl, which immediately gave battle, pick- ing out both of the eges of the ffsh, which fell easy prey to Aubolee and Kroken. And it wasn’t a good day for fish- ing, neither. @ G. N. Special Agent Here. W. M. Binyon of Grand Forks, N.

Revolver in Each Hand. The desperado, who is a stranger to the New Albany and Louisville police, entered the bank by a rear door, a revolver in each hand. He gave the single command: “Hands up, everybody! the vault!” There was a rush for safety by the clerks and several persons who were transacting business in the bank. President Woodward, quickly tak- ing in the situation, advanced toward the robber and attempted to talk to him, or, if possible. capture him. To a question by Mr. Woodward as to what was wanted the robber re- sponded with two shots, which struck the officlal in the arms and stomach, inflicting dangerous wounds. Cashier Fawcett rished forward, but hefore he could reach the fallen president the cashier was shot in the neck and breast, dylng within a few minutes. The robber, without speaking a word, walked quickly out of the front door, dropping one of his revolvers Just outside the bank-building.

But the automobile stood.still, the negro, thoroughly frightened at the course of events, refusing to move. Without parley the robber jumped to Get into the ground, drew a revolver and sent |} a bullet into the negro’s back. An instant later the robber was running at top speed down the bank to the Ohio, where he jumped into a skiff. He had pulled out some dis- tance into the stream before people | & on the shore realized what had hap- pened. A dredge hoat employe, see- ing the robber rowing frantically for the Kentucky shore, gave the alarm tbrough a megaphone. With sten- torian voice the dredge boat employe roared up and down the bank: “Catch that fellow ; he's killed a man.” Owners of river craft then engaged In a race for the desperado.
