DEATH OF A GERMAN BARON IN MIME
soTA.-The baron Won Freudenrich, aged 20
years, died last night at his residence on the
Hudson road two miles from this city. He
was native oi Berne, Switzerland, and came
to this country in 1851 as the representative
of joint company tor the manufacture of pig
iron, the principal mover and stockholder in
which was his brother-in-law, Count Pourte-
les, an officer high in the service of the king of
Prussia. Fifty thousand acres of land were
purchased at Watertown, N. Y, of Justice
Burrand. now of this city, but no iron was
found, and the company failed. In 1854 the
baron came to st. Paul, where he invested
heavily in real estate, and was caught in the
crash of 1857.
About 1852 the baron retired to a small
farm OF about 80 acres, adjoining the resi-
dence OF Capt. William Paist, on the Hud-
son road, where he resided up to the time of
his death. Deceased had an annuity from
the country of his birth, which now reverts
to his wife, Neapolitan lady, whose health
would never permit her to brave the rigors of
northern winter, and who consequently did
not accompany her husband to his new home.
he has two sons in this country, one residing
at McMinnville, Tenn, resident engineer on
the Memphis and Charleston railroad, the
other citizen of Alexandria, Douglass coun-
ty, in this State, where he holds the position
of county auditor.-St. Paul Press,

works were carefully deposited in a rear pock-
ct, and short time thereafter he wended his
way to the depot to take the evening train.
While lettering in the waiting room admiring

coat tail against the red-hot stove, and trou-
