He stopped to buy a barrel of salt which weighed 400 pounds. While Haggerty was in the store, the oxen started for home. They had @ good three-block start when Haggerty was informed his team had left. Nonchalantly Haggerty picked up the 400-pound barrel, heaved it onto his shoulder and ran down the street after the team. When Haggerty was 72 years old and crippled with rheumatism he was visited one night in his farm home by a pair of robbers who heard the old man had a fortune in cash hidden there. They caught Haggerty reading in a chair. At the robbers’ command of “Hands up,” Haggerty rocked slowly back, then forgetting his aching joints hurled himself forward, kicking one of the robbers in the groin. While the one was hors de combat, the old man grabbed the other fellow with one arm, the injured one in the other and proceeded to bump their heads together until they were unconscious. Then he tossed them out the front door. The police didn’t hear about it until weeks later. Fibs, Facts and Fancies welcomes stories of local strong men.

Building HUNT FOR KNOWLEN SLAYER 1S PUSHED Murder Victim Buried as Peace Officers Turn Attention to Varied Stories Convict, With Many Service Titles, Already Has Been Paid Once An application for a $350 North Dakota soldiers bonus received from an inmate of the state penitentiary Saturday sent a group of astonished state officials into action. Tt was signed by Frank White Eagle or Frank Fowler, who said he ..; Was part Indian, and who was im- prisoned last Novemver to a year’s term for forgery from Cass county. Adjt. Gen. Frayne Baker asserted that Fowler previously claimed and obtained a $725 state bonus. Baker said that the records of the office show Fowler's first application was received in August, 1932, by G. A. Fraser, then adjutant general. In it Fowler claimed service with Cana- dian forces overseas from July 23, 1916, to Sept. 2; 1919, with rank of captain, In Prison at Time When this application was made Fowler was serving a term in the fed- eral penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga., Baker said. Certified by a notary public at the federal penitentiary, a copy of his was sent to the North Dakota office. He claimed a $25 monthly bonus for 29 months service, and was paid, Sept. 27, 1932, Later, when a new acting Adjutant General H. A.

Father Hildebrand Eickhoff officiated. Mrs. Barth was 74 years old. Her death was caused by cancer, from which she had suffered for several years, keeping her bedridden ‘since November. Born at Spier, South Russia, Aug. 23, 1861, Mrs. Barth came to America with her husband in 1900 and settled near Solen, 28 miles south of Mandan. ‘They lived there until 1925 when they moved to Mandan. Since her husband’s death three years ago, Mrs, Barth had made her home with her son, Philip M. Barth ot Solen, and with the Schers here.

It asked a copy of the North Dakota roster of service men be sent him. Fowler claimed in his letter he in- tended to reorganize disabled veterans groups. Brocopp sent the roster, but noting a difference in the signed tank in the filed service record, be- came curious and wrote to Canadian authorities. The latter revealed Fow- ler had served as a private and not a captain, and that he had enlisted July 23, 1918, and not in 1915. The discharge date checked. : Referred to Shaft Brocopp referred the question to the attorney general's office. Harold Shaft, then an assistant attorney gen- declared he was “satisfied this man is guilty of securing fraudulent payments from the state of North Dakota.” Fowler had been freed and was then rearrested and re-committed to the federal penitentiary but no crim- inal charges were begun. Saturday, however, Brocopp found another application for bonus from Fowler, claiming service in the Cana: dian forces. This time claimed serv- ice dates coincided with those of the Canadian government. But Fowler in his sworn applica- tion declared he had never before ap- plied for a North Dakota bonus, Baker said. He claimed no official rank in the army—but asserted himself now to be @ “physician and surgeon” and sign- ed his name as “Dr. Frank Fowler.” Baker said he will turn the ap- plications and other records over to Attorney Ge: P.
