GATED.
1t is generally thought to-day that there viii be
some solt of investigation ordered, explanation
demanded in reference TO the charges recently pre-
ferred against Judge Advocate General Swain by
Mr.. Bateman. Although the charges were with

A. NJ Radclff, prison architect was in the
city yesterday.
Judge McCluer, of this city, who is at
present sojourning in California, is not ex-
pected home before the LIST of May.
A new meat market is to be started on
north Main street. A building for the pur-
pose is being rapidly pushed to completion.
A stranger and an individual known as
Big Mike engaged in street sparring match
on Monday evening. The police somehow
looked on the affair as a row, and marched
the boys off to the lookup. In the morning
Mike was discharged and his partner ordered
to leave town on the first train.
The work of rebuilding the interior of the
prison is being carried on with rush. About
twenty of the chaps from behind the bars
are employed on the job some carrying the
hod, while two or three are helping to lay
brick. The manner in which the lads in the
striped jackets handled the trowel, proved
them old hands at the business.
A goodly number of the old, familiar faces
were noticed yesterday on the corners of
Main and Chestnut streets. The loungers
were just about numerous enough to fill the
best places. The boys were well supplied
with tobacco, which they passed around with
old time generosity. 1t is to be hoped that
the lads will not crowd into the center of the
sidewalk, as has formerly been the case,
compelling ladies to turn back or elbow
their way through the crowd.
Last season saw mills were rather at dis
count in the Saltwater market. The lum-
bermen claimed that more clear money could
be made by selling the logs. But the result
of last years traffic seems to have reversed
the opinions previously entertained in regard
to the matter. This change of ideas is likely
to prove of great benefit to the working men
of Saltwater, for the reason that
a number of additional saw mills
will most probably be erected in the city and
vicinity during the coming season. Jaur-
dean & Mathews, tits understood, will com
mence work as soon as the weather will per
NIT, not ON the Wisconsin side of the lake, as
has been stated. A large number of men
are employed on Mr.. Clark's new mill, which
is being hurried to completion as rapidly as
possible.

The price of admission being twenty-five

Scrap Iron Bilr' is announced for a Sat-
urday evening lecture at the Congregational
church and upon Sunday evening at the OPP
era house. The subject of the lecture is of
course to be temperance, or more properly
speaking, intemperance, and as the lecturer
resides at Minneapolis he ought to be posted
His style, as every one knows, is not that of
the polished blows, but partakes more of the
muscular order, and the way he drops in his
double-handed blows on the liquor vendors
is a caution. Scrap Iron Bill always draws.
Mr.. G. N. Weston, of the firm of G. N
Weston & Son, who own on extensive stock
farm adjoining the village of st. James, was
in town yesterday, and reports that village
quite lively and people beginning to arrive
looking for desirable farms. This village
will be quite an important point
for the st. Paul & Sioux City
land company to operate from as they own
large tract in that vicinity. Mr.. Weston re-
ports his stock as having stood. the winter
remarkably well and seems to be satisfied
with his business outlook.
Mr. H. Jorgenson, merchant tailor, and
well known to almost every one at Mankato,
has recently formed co-partnership with
the Pond Bros, under the firm name of
Pond Bros. 81 Jorgenson, who
will continue the merchant tailor
ing business for the present at
the old quarters of Mr.. Jorgensen. The en-
argement of the business will be natural
consequence and travelling statesmen will
soon be put upon the road. The reputation
which Mr.. j. has acquired by long years of
business at Mankato will make the new
firm popular
