TIE military spirit is on tho in
crease in our town since the splendid
drill Of the Elisto Rifles on Monday
last. Steps arc being taken to raise
and organize Il new rifle company to
compete with the gallant Edistos for
tho honors of the county. Several
names have already been enrolled
and there is every prospect of ulti-
mate success. A company Of Light
Artillery is also on the tapis, but
what may be the result depends on
future development. we commend
these enterprises to the favorable con-
sideration Of the young men of our
town and county, and hope the day
is not distant, when Orangcbu:g may
boast of the military spirit of her citi-
zens as in the days before the war.

Death on the Rail.

Last Saturday morning rs an excur,
Sion train was coming west from Roches
ter il collided with freight train OF
the Chicago i Northwestern railwa,
about one mile East of Mankato junctio
on the grade down Wardlow's ravine A
brakeman named Charles Lott was killed
and the engineer on the excursion train
was badly wounded. The body Of Lot,
Was brought into the city Immediately,
and coroner's inquest held. The result
of the inquest was given about 8 o'clock
Saturday evening, the Jury bringing in
verdict that Chas. Lott "came TO his
death by being crushed between two
cars, III about ten o'clock on the night
of September 3 1880, in a collision that
occurred between trains No. % and IL,
and that the said collision was brought
about by the negligence of Conductor
Charles A. Smith of train No. IA, in not
examining carefully the register of trains
that passed Mankato Junction" This
decision may be wholly in conformity
with the facts, but il does not alleviate
the sufferings of the wounded or bring
back life TO the killed. The company
will undoubtedly dismiss the negligent
conductor, but the simple dismissal
does not exonerate the company from
blame, for if they had a telegraph
station at the Junction this accident
might have been averted. If there is
no law extant making railroad COM
panies liable for such catastrophies it is
a good theme to bring before our legis-
lators next winter.

MankatO Brick.

One Of the rapidly growing industries
of Mankato, is its brick yards. A repre-.
sentative of the FREE PRESS, sauntered
down to the large brick yard of Fred
Polchow " 90, Tuesday, and CLEANED q
few items relative to how the mud was
ground, pressed into shape and baked
ready for use. From the loading of the
clay into the dump carts, to the grind
ing of it in the mill and pressing it into
suitable shape, preparatory to drying in
the yard and subsequently burning il
in kilns, are interesting features, and
more worthy of recognition than is gen
orally supposed. The firm have grounds
with an almost inexhaustable supply of
material, as the clay vein is nearly 100
feet in depth. Last year they manu-
featured over 5000, 900 brick and ship
ped them to all points OF the compass,
while the demand far exceeds their sup
ply. This year the firm intend to in.
crease their supply of 1879, so as to be
able to fill orders both from home and
abroad.
