CLOSED ON ATTACHMENTS

Sheriff Geddes placed an at:aclmcn mt
of $97 so on c. l.. McFadden's stock of
goods late Monday afternoon, for S.
Controvi,Z & Sons. After supper another
attachment for the Ashland Cigar and
Tobacco Co., amounting to $3.50, was
placed on the stock. These were fol-
lowed this morning by attachments on
the stock and accounts by the Lone Jack
Cigarette Co., for 5000, and by the
Mcneil & Higgins Co, for $l07 33. These
are all tobacco firms. The store was
closed when the first attachment was put
on.
Mr.. McFadden states that he can east
ly settle the claims and will open again
this afternoon. He states that his stock
is worth So 200, and that his accounts
will amount to $500. He says that he
does not owe over $500. With a little
time, he says, he would have paid all
claims without trouble. He is greatly
mortified to think that the firms have
taken the course they have. Business
has been quite good all summer, though
the times were somewhat dull. Mr..
McFadden looks forward to a profitable
trade the coming season. He has dis
played much grit in starting a business
which was new to the city and about
which there was some doubt of success.
That he has done so well and made his
store 80 popular is sufficient evidence
that he will succeed with half a chance.
He is a young man, full of energy, and
it is confidently believed that he will
weather this little adversely.

HORSE AND BUGGY STOLEN.

Some time during Fri'ay night a
horse was stolen from Peter Peterson's
barn one mile this side of Kasota, and u
little later buggy was stolen from Geo.
Bradley, living four miles north of the
city at Bradley's crossing, which is not
very far from Peterson's. The outfit
was this morning traced to this city by
the tracks in the muddy road. Neither
theft was discovered until this morning,
when the officers were notified and a
search was instituted. kilograms have
been sent to the various towns around
and men have been posted on different
roads. 1t is likely that the thief will be
captured unless he gets into Iowa pretty
quickly. There is no clue to who he is.
The horse was a large bright bay
mare, weighing 800 pounds, five years
old, and has lump under Its jaw and a
little white hair on it's back. 1t sold for
$3.50 when three years old and is worth
more than that now. The carriage is an
ordinary top buggy, rather old, and not
worth great deal. Although the horse
was stolen from LeSueur county, the Of
ficers of this county will make all reason
able search In conjunction with the Of
ficers of that county.

MANAGER MERRILL RESIGNS.

Manager F. n. Merrill has resigned
his position as manager OF the Standard
! Cement Co.'S Mankato works, the same
T., take effect as soon rs the company Sc
cures another man. We are sorry to
make this announcement, as it doubtless
means that Mankato is to lose the servi-
ccs of valued and enierprisIng citizen.
Mr.. Merrill has been connected with
the cement works ever since their open
ing, SIX and half years ago; indeed,
the starting of the enterprise was largely
dine to Mr.. Merrill's efforts, while the
success it has attained and the growth
secured for the business are entirely due
to his able and shrewd management, ex-
rcpt so far as lie has been aided by the
excellenre of the cement. Mr.. Merrll's
services to the company were especially
valuable because of his thorough knowl-
edge of the business in all It's features.
Not detail of the chemistry, machinery
or numerous processes Of Manufacture
has been allowed 10 escape his attention,
while his abilities have always been
used to improve the product in every
possible way. AS citizen Mr.. Merrill
has been equally valuable. Possessed of
great energy and plenty of public spirit,
his services in behalf of any enterprise
for the benefit of Mankato have always
been given at call. His fine business
ability has many times counted in favor
of the city's interest. Though not mix
ing in politics to great extent, he is a
strong Republican, and his natural abil-
ity as a leader has enabled him to do
considerable valuable work for his
party.
We are not informed of Mr.. Merrill's
plans for the future, except that he is
likely to leave the city-possibly not for
several month"; yet, however. The de-
parture of himself and family will be
greatly regretted by host of friends
whenever it occurs.
