Mr.. E. Grew. of Hampstead, is
generally successful in everything he
undertakes, whether watermelons or
celery or fine hogs. This year he
determined to beat the record in hog
fattening. One fine hog had fatten-
ed very fast and Mr.. Crew deter
mined to have a grand dinner next
Sunday and had dozens of guests in
vited. Tuesday night thieves en-
tered his back yard, butchered the
fine hog, went into the crib, kitchen
and other rooms and carried off
everything that possibly could be
carried. Mr.. Crew thinks that hog
raising beats watermelon raising be-
cause the thieves charged no freight
on the hog while the railroad com.
panies did on the watermelons.
Meanwhile all invitations to the din
ner are declared of.

A NEW ENTERPRISE.

Edmund Ore has Just returned from
the east, where he took an extensive
trip looking up matters in regard to
the manufacture of potato haryesters.
These machines have proved great
advantage to farmers in digging their
potatoes, as it enables them to go over
several times as much ground in the
same length of time as formerly. The
introduction of this labor saving
machine in the west will be benefit
and Mr.. Ore believes that its manu-
facture here will be profitable. He is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of organ
izing stock company to put in a
plant, and the probability is that a
new industry will soon be added to
the already long list in Mankato. Mr..
Ore is an enterprising, wide awake
gentleman, who is largely interested
in farming in this county, and will
undoubtedly make success of the en-
terpriSe if it is started.

SUNDAY CLOSING.

The question has been frequently
asked, ''why do not the clothing hous-
eS in Mankato close on Sundays"
There is no apparent reason why they
do not. There is no demand on the
part Of the public for keeping them
open, and the various dealers reap no
benefit by so doing. The great diff
cultyin closing is, that if one clothier
declines to enter into an agreement
to close, the others are forced to re-
main open for self-protection, while
if all would lock their doors the small
trade of Sunday morning would be
had on some week day. Clerks and
proprietors who remain at their posts
six days and evenings out of the sew
en-, are entitled to rest on the Sab
bath.
This is question that should re-
ceive the attention of our clothing
house proprietors. 1t is not improb
able that if an agreement was drawn
up binding each to keep his house
closed from Saturday night until Mon
day morning it would meet with
unanimous endorsement No one
could lose anything by it in dollars
and cents, while employees would gain
the entire day and secure that respite
from business which rightly belongs
to them. There is Just as much rea-
son for keeping dry goods and boot
and shoe houses open Sunday as there
is clothing houses, and there is no
is for the other.
Would it not be good idea to try
Sunday closing?

OBITUARY.

Judge Charles S. Otto, well known
to many of our citizens, was taken
with la grippe about four weeks ago.,
the malady assuming the malignant
form of pneumonia and, through his
strong will power and the fondest and
unceasing care and nursing on the
part of relatives and friends, seemed
for while to overcome the disease,
yet suddenly on Monday, the 18th of
May at about p. M the patient sank
rapidly and his spirit passed quietly
away at about ten minutes of~siX
O'Clock. During this illness his suf-
ferings were great, and it can be but
a relief to him, to have died so peace
fully and quietly. Mr.. ChaS. S. Otto
was born near Mayence, Germany,
Jan. 4, 1928. His father was the own
er of a foundry that supplied the bells
for the churches and court houses of
the surrounding country. After having
graduated at the gymnasium Mr.. Otto
studied forestry. This pleasant life
would well have suited his fancy, had
not his heart yearned for the freedom
that only a republican form of govern
ment can grant, and he emigrated to
this country, landing in New Orleans
in 1850. In that city he learned the
watch making and jewelry business,
which he carried on for the rest of his
life. In 1867 he removed to st. Paul
and after various ventures in business
there and at lie Sueur came to Man
kato in 1873. He was elected city
Justice Of the peace in "A, and retain
ed that position until 1879, when he,
after visiting number of states and
territories, established himself at
Monroe, La. He returned to Man
kato in April, 1889. A widow, eight
children and three grand children were
left-by Mr.. Otto, two having preceded
him to the peace of heaven. He made
many friends during his residence
in our midst, and the business of his
decisions, when justice of the peace.
were very favorably commented upon:
at the same time his generous nature,
his liberality and fine conversational
powers won him many lasting friends.
Judge Otto was a Mason for many
years, and also belonged to the Blue
Earth Lodge No. 80, of the A. o. U.
W., of this city, under whose auspices
the funeral ceremony was con-

The District Encampment of the G..

four counties, and the prospect is that
a great crowd will be in attendance.
The three previous encampments,
held at other places, were largely at
tended, and this will doubtless be the
largest of any. Wilkin Post can be
depended upon to extend a liberal
hospitality to all visitors, and they
can be assured of a pleasurable meet
ing. Full details will be given later
There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incura-

pronounced 1T local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.

Death of a Good Minister.

Rev. w. B. Neal, pastor of Spring
creek and Auburn, KY, Baptist
churches, died yesterday evening at
800 O'Clock at the residence of w.
H. Killebrew, st. Bethlehem, after a
protracted illness. He had been af-
flicted for some time with Bright's
disease and his death had been antic-
ipated for some months.
Mr.. Neale was only thirty.seven
years old, and his life work was seem
ingly just begun. He was a gradu-
ate of Bethel college and was regard
ed as one of the most brilliant young
ministers in Bethel Association. His
death will be a great loss, not only
to the churches he served, but to the
Baptist church in this section. Less
than two years ago Mr.. Neale was
married to Miss Laide Killebrew, an
accomplished daughter of w. II.
Killebrew, of this county, and his life
gave promise of much happiness, as
we'll as usefulness. The ways of
Providence are mysterious when His
servants, so we'll equipped for His
work and so jealous in His cause, are
called from the field in the morning
of their labors.
Rev. s. P. Forgy is expected to
conduct the funeral services this even
ing, and the remains will be inferred
in the Killebrew burying ground.

The Cause OF Poor Health

Is often found in the neglect of one's
own self. A lightscold or slight head
ache is treated as not requiring much
attention; the assumption being that
they will soon pass off, and it is only
when a case of full-hedged sickness de-
velops Itself that the consequences OF
that neglect are fully realized. AS a
preventive and positive cure for Conghs,
Colds, Hoarseness, Splitting OF blood,
Asthma, Pains in the Chest and first
stages of consumption, use Eilert's Ex-
tract of Tar and Wild Cherry, and for
sick Headache, Torpid Liver, Dys-
pepsia, Nervousness and all Bilious
Complaints, use Eilert's Daylight Liver
Pills. Both are guaranteed.

THR SEWER SYSTEM.
The Committee Holds Meeting at DR.,
Beach's Once.

The sewer committee held meet
ing at DR.. Beach's Office last night
and discussed the System" at length.
Contractor Brennan thinks the city
should pay the damage that was
done to the mouth Of the sewer by
the recent rains and talks of entering
suit for damages. He claims that the
city is responsible for making the
connections with the main sewer,
and that this is the cause of the
washout. Stewart & Quinn made
the connections before they made
their assignment, and they did it to
keep the water from running down
and washing the dirt from the top of
the sewer, thinking that the water
would do less damage if run out
through the sewer than If on the sur
face, and in this they seemed to have
been correct, for no damage was done
their brick work. 1t is claimed by
members of the sewer committee
that the chief trouble was in Con-
tractor Brennan's mortar. They as
sert that he did not put enough ee-
ment with his sand, and to make
this assertion true they refer to the
fact that all the cement, or mortar, is
washed clean from the bricks.
Mr.. Brennan has a force at work
to-day on the College street sewer,
near the intersection of Second
street, and will close up the gap at
this point before he does anything
else. 1t will take some time to re
move the dirt that caved in during
the rain, but if good weather holds
out the contractor thinks there will
be no more trouble at this point.
Acting on the suggestion Of the
LEAF-C CHRONICLE Chairman Gilbert
of the street committee had the en-
trance to the cavern In Lake Lyman
cleaned out and the water which
had accumulated there is about all
gone.
An examination of the break at
the intersection of the alley and Ell
der street reveals the fact that the
pipe did not burst, The water gained
an entrance to the sewer bed at Lake
Joseph and followed the excavation
to Elder street, where it broke
through the top of the ground and
filled up Lake Hyman.
The committee hopes that the
worst is over and that the work will
be completed without further trouble.

Recorder Bailey Turns a Negro Loose
For Shooting at Pigeons.


In the city court this morning E..
V. Harrison's hack driver and gen.
eral utility man, of an ebony hue,
was arraigned before the Recorder
charged with discharging a gun
within the corporation limits.
Ed. Harrison went to the
cave yesterday, leaving his negro
at home to guard the premi-
SEES. He left a shotgun where the
negro could get hold of it and told
him to watch for that fox that DR..
Pardue and Jas. Lockert had turned
loose to catch all the chickens and
pigeons in the neighborhood
and II he saw any sus-
picious movements to open fire.
About noon Harrison's pigeons came
in with a great flourish and the me-
gro thought the fox was after them.
He remembered the adage, that "a
stitch in time saves nine" and
grabbed the gun and began firing,
hoping to scare Reynard away If he
was anywhere in the neighborhood.
He killed three pigeons and got the
whole police force on the scene.
They arrested him and brought him
before the recorder, and after hear
ing the proof in the case he was
turned loose. The recorder said in
his decision that it was known
fact that DR.. Pardue and Jas. Lockert
had turned that fox loose,
and while he must admire their
foresight and enterprise he could not
fine man for shooting to protect
his chickens and pigeons. The fox
had been seen by several parties and
much complaint had been made
against his depredations. After
warning the people to keep a lookout
for Sir Reynard the Recorder ad-
journed court.
