J. Kneeshaw sentenced Charles Currle of Minto, to serve his fourth term in the peniten* tiary at Bismarck. This .time Currie received a sentence qf one year and five months on a charge of selling liq uor Illegally. He had served sentences •for burglary, grand larceny and liquor selling- He was released less than: a year ago after serving- a sentence of five years. One rather odd feature of his ease is the fact that he has. always returned to Minto immediately after his sentence expired. Some years ago there were sever res In Minto and Currie was sus-er, B. R. Slnkler, who was attorney at that time, hired a ve to investigate matters. He failed to secure sucient evidence to convict Currie of Incendiarism, but secured evidence that he was guilty of burglary and his conviction was secured. In Cunie'g ^possession was found an infernal machine, which could be used in lncediarism. It con sisted of a box packed with exiselsior In it was a candle. It was so arranged 4jbat when the candle burned a certain distance there would be a fire. After Currie was sent to prison there were no more fires.
