Mitchell Sheriff Hold. Man for Week
on Suspicion, Then Beleaaei Him
Deposits Money in Bank.
MITCHELL, 8. D., April .-(Specls4.)-An
unusual circumstance was uncovered
here when a man named Fred Dickson was
arrested and on being searched by Sheriff
Berry he was found to have on his person
tha large sum of $2,580. Dickson was
picked up by the sheriff by a mere chance
when ha was looking for the man who as
saulted two little girls in this city. He
tracked Dickson seven miles north of the
city and found that ha had bean trying to
find a place to sleep over night.
While Dickson was able to convince the
sheriff that he knew nothing of the as
sault, yet It waa thought best to hold him
for a time on account of his having such a
large sum of money and traveling as he
did over the country. After holding Dick
son a week and making Inquiry around the
stats as to the possibility of there being a
robbery and no evidence being secured,
the sheriff permitted Dickson to leave the
Jail, but ha got him to deposit his money
In one of tha banks tor safe keeping.
Dickson said he came by his money hon
estly and that It waa the accumulation of
twenty-five years of hard work and saving.
He said that during all that period he had
worked mainly for farmers, where he did
not have to pay any money out for board,
and that whatever traveling he did he
either walked or beat his way on the rail
roads. He said that he never paid to ex
ceed 150 for railroad fare.
Afraid of all bunks he said ho has al
ways carried his money with him and
traveled along with all kinds of humsnily
and none of them ever made an attempt to
hold him up. He haa relatives back In
Illinois, but he left them a quarter of a
century ago, and haa never had any cor
respondence with them up to the present
time. He said that ha took the nam of
Dickson when he left home twenty-eight
years ago, but declined to give his real
name now. He Is about 60 years old. Dick
son said that ha would stay around Mitchell
for some time and would then take up his
Journey, whither he knew not where.

R Good System of
Rug Buying
Here it a good suggestion for eprlng-tlme: In these
days wben you are brlghenltif up the bouse, tbe addition
of a single new Oriental rug will work wonders. And by
Installing a new rug In the spring, and another In tbe fall,
and repeating the process as tbe seasons come, you will,
soon find yourself In possession of a lot of precious floor
coverings. And tbe beat part of it Is that such a system of
buying prevents tha expense from being a burden.
'Having one of tbe finest collections of Oriental rugs,
and being tbe only Importers of sucb fabrics In Omaha,
we know that we are In position to be of great service to
you in your rug buying.
This spring while you are thinking about replacing an
old rug with a new, let us show you and tell you about
som of the unusually attractlre specimens on our second
floor.
