PROPERTY OWNERS MEET
And Take Action Toward Securing the
Street Railway Extension.
A Large Bonus to be Raised.

The meeting of the property owners
and residents of West Mankato, who
are interested in securing an extension
OF the stree: railway facilities to that
portion OF the city, Was very largely at
tendedTuesday eveningand asquite en-
thusiastic over the proposed extension.
Fully one hundred persons gathered at
the tireman's hall, and the general sem
timent was that II fair bonus could and
should be raised To- aid the street car
company to put lis line through to the
Blue Earth river. Many opposed the
plan 10 simply build it to Swanson's
store this year. The meeting was or
ganized by the election of Andrew Han
ma chairman, and G. F. Holman secre-
tary. w. Nj. Farr WAS present to repre-
sent the street car company and made a
statement III which he gave his hearers
to understand that the company will
make the extension to SWanson's store
for 81 800 bonus, or 10 lhe Blue Earth
river bridge for 1900. The matter was
discussed for some time and the chair
man was given power to appoint COM
mittee to solicit subscription toward
bonus, either in the shape of money or
land. This committee has since been
appointed and consists of Andrew Han
ma, chairman, b. Roemer, &. +. Hall
man. Geo. Pond and j. G. Fowler.
These met Wednesday night to lay out a
plan of action. The meeting adjourned
subjec to the call Of the chairman The
latter will call meeting as soon as the
soliciting committee is ready to report.
1t was stated ut the meeting that one
of the street car company's officers had
said that the company would 60 to the
bridge for bonus of 5000. However
this may be, those who attended the
meeting last night feel confident that
any reasonable bonus can be raised and
they are already Congratulating them
selves on the prospect of the early build
ing of the additional track Several gen
tlemen who own considerable property
in West Mankato made liberal offers to-
wards the required bonus. There are in
West Mankato, plated and unplatted,
about 400 lots, and very small assess
ment on each will raise large sum of
money. The committee has no doubt of
being able to secure the necessary bonus.
The distance from the end of the street
car track to the Blue Earth river is
about mile, taken by way of the fair
grounds. II the extension is made, the
city will find it necessary to spend sew
eral hundred dollars in grading OH the
streets that have worn down below the
established grade. The West Mankato
people are to ne commended i'm the
course they are taking, as there Is no
surer way to build up that part of the
city than by giving it good facilities for
reaching the business portion of the city.
The company has two years remaining
under its charter before it must make
the addition to its line, but that is too
long for that enterprising portion of the
city to be deprived of the benefits and
convenience of the line. 1t is hoped
that the movement will be success and
that nothing may occur to disappOint
the homes of the West Manufactures

FIRE IN HEBRON.
A Barn and Five Horses Devoured
by Flames.

A very destructive fire occurred in
the town of Hebron, about ten miles
across the Minnesota river, Friday
noon, which destroyed large amount
of valuable property. The barn of
James Hodgson, a wealthy farmer, was
destroyed with its entire contents, con-
sisting of five part Norman horses, two
wagons, 200 bushels of wheat, 800 BUSH
els of oats and 800 bushels of corn. The
fire was first discovered in load of hay
which was standing near the barn, up
on which the wind blew tie flames.
Mr.. Hodgson and his wife tried to move
the wagon, but failed. Then he went
into the barn to release the horses, but
the animals became panic stricken as
they always do at such times and crowd
ed HIM into far corner of the structure.
He managed to crawl out of small win
dow, but not before he had been con-
siderably burned about the head and
hands. The children let the cattle out,
thus saving them. The total loss is over
$1,000 and the insurance $500. Mr..
Hodgson came to this city last evening
to have his injuries attended to and his
hands we're found to be very badly
burned. 1t is not known what started
the fire. After it was discovered the
wind prevented any successful attempt
to stay the flames.
