Maine Girl Runs Over Man Then Marries Him
A Maine girl drove over a man with her auto and married him afterward. The collision left the fellow badly hurt and unable to escape, while the bride’s motive remains unclear. A North Dakota judge proposes executing all natural born criminals, including the insane, in a stark call for harsh justice. In lighter fare, The Perrys offer a “kidnapped for a Million” show featuring Little Perry Sisters and The Child Wonders, with Jack King performing a baseball routine between acts at the Opera House for one night only on January 1 with prices 26-85-50. A local plea urges embracing home industry and buying home made goods to support city growth and civic institutions.
