sage to O. Connell fully generating him
from blame in the unhappy affair. The
latter was stricken with remorse. He
communicated with q Esterre's widow.
and asked permission to settle upon her

ter was induced to accept it. greatly to
O 'Connell's relief. He had, In fact, be-

afterward he learned that ID Esterre's
widow was subjected to a harassing
suit, which, ii successful, would involve
the loss OF her small patrimony. The
case was coming on at the circuit. a
considerable distance from Dublin, but

trial. The offer was joyfullv accepted,

Andrew jackson.

In brilliant editorial on the annlvers-
airy of the Battle Of New Orleans, the
Courier Journal says: Jackson WAS in all
his qualities an American citizen devoted
to his country aud to her institutions.
At the age of thirteen he enlisted in the
Revolutionary army; at twenty he was
admitted to the bar. In 1896 he was a
member OF Congress from Tennessee;
later he YVES senator, aud then Judge Of
the Supreme Court of bis State. Even
before the war OF 1912, his public serv-
ices had married him as power In pc.
Et1cai affairs. In the ordinary inter
course OF lite, courteous and winning; in
devotion to his friends, intiaxible; in his
affection for bis own people, as tender as
a woman.
Everywhere he was the same; ON the
field, in the Senate or in private life.
Preparing for his defense OF New Or
leans or in resisting the snachiuation of
his political foes, he exhibited the same
unyieIdtng purpose, the same uudannted
courage, the sauna disregard of conse-
quences, the same determination to carry
everything before him. He is as u great
rock in q strange land; tower of
strength to his followers and scourge
to all who hated him.

Human lives are silent teaching,

When truths banner is unfurled;
Youthful preachers, genius gifted,
Pouring forth their souls uplifted.
Fill their preaching stirs he world.
Each must work as God has given
Hero hand or poet soul
Work is duty, while we live in
This weird world Of sin and dole.

Lift their white hands up appealing,
To the Throne Of Heavens King;
Stronger natures, eliminating
In great actions, incarnating

We must preach the saints avenged
Ere we claim the sanity prize.

MORNING EXERCISES.
What a FREE PRESS Man Saw and
Heard Friday Morning ut the
High School.

The scenes Of Friday morning lead
one to eXclaim with the poet:
Backward, turn backward. o Time
in your fight.
And make me a child again just
for tonight"
Friday morning at half past eight
O'Clock, a FREE PRESS man attended
the opening exercises at the High
School. and what he saw leads him TO
refer to the above lines. On the mo-
ment of half past eight, the little bell
sounded and in the Jwinkling OF an
eye one could have heard a pin drop.
After the reading of the XIV Psalm
all joined in repeating the Lord S
prayer in unison. after which hymn
I72 was sung by the scholars, the
teachers also lending their sweet and
musical voices.
Another tap Of the bell and from
different parts of the room arose girls
and boys who were to march to their
recitation rooms at a given signal.
AS the pianist touched the keys, the
scholars in perfect marching order,
fled out Of the assembly room to the
work of the morning.
By nine o'clock the future men and
women were storing away knowledge
to be used in the years that are to
come.
Supt. Becholdt has an excellent
corps Of teachers, and one that not
only he is proud Of, but one the schol-
ars and parents respect and admire
for their teaching and social qualities.
Those who are interested in the
young people of Mankato, who attend
the High school, will always find a
warm greeting by those in charge.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

That which started out to be a
pleasant ride Sunday afternoon,
ended in very serious and abrupt
manner While Misses Lille Wilson,
Luella Jacobson and Ada MangUus
were driving down Agency hill, for
some cause not ascertained. the horse
began kicking and plunging, upset
ting both Mise Mangtus and Jacob
son, and before Miss Wilson could ex-
tricate herself from the wreck, the
fiery beast started down the hill, drag
ging the unfortunate young lady along
with it.
Miss LUella Jacobson was the most
fortunate Of the two, she only receiy-
ing an injury to the right eye and one
side Of her forehead. while Miss Mang-
tus had her shoulder blade broken.
Miss Wilson IL is thought, sustained
internal injuries, and is very low to-
day, although she may recover. All
three have the sympathy of the pub
lie, and their hope is they will soon
recover.

Y. VI. c. A.

A meeting of the board Of directors
of the Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton was held in their rooms Friday
night. and in the absence Of president
G.. NJ. Palmer, W. D. Willard presided.
After some elaboration, Friday eve
ming, Nov. Doth, was decided upon as
the night to hold formal opening Of
their elegantly furnished rooms. A
special committee Of five was ap-
pointed to act with the entertainment
committee in preparing program for
the occasion. There will be two
speakers. one Of whom will be Mr..
HiIdreth, state secretary. After sew
eral musical selections, there viii be
an informal reception or social, and
to all Of these exercises the general
public is cordially invited. The di-
rectors, approaching the good work
Of the ladies in furnishing furniture,
carpets, ETC., for the rooms, adopted
these resolutions:
WHEREAS. The ladies committee ofthe Young
Mems Christian Association, have kindly sup
piled the elegant furnishings now contained in
the rooms of the Association, and,
WHEREAS. The work so well and generously
done is highly satisfactory to this board, and
lends both adornment and comfort TO these
apartments, therefore be it
RESOLVED, That the sincere thanks of this Asso-
citation be unanimously extended to the ladies'
committee, and those who assisted them for
their aid and assistance rendered.
ReSoIred, That these resolutions be spread up
on the Association records, and be published IN
the city papers.
The committees are wide awake to
the needs Of the members, for upon
their tables will be found daily, week
ly and monthly papers and periodi-
Gals, not only from several points in
the United States, but also from Can
ada and England. About $50 has been
expended to secure good literature,
and another $50 will go toward a gym
nasium apparatus, which will be put
in within two OF three weeks.

MARRIAGE TIE BROKEN.
After Nineteen years as Man and Wife
Eliza Cook and Gustave Cook,
Have Dissolved Part
nership Accord
ing to Law.

The case of Eliza Cook VS. Gustave
Cook, for absolute divorce, was tried
before Judge Severance on Saturday.
The complainant claimed that the
marriage took place on July 24th,
1872, and that ever since that time
they have resided IN Blue Earth
county. She also declared that the
issue Of the marriage are four child
rem.
In her complaint she further says
that since the marriage, the defend
ant has treated her in a cruel and in
human manner. Shortly after the
ceremony, without cause or provoca-
tion, the defendant became angry and
abusive, and in his fit of anger be
kicked the plaintiff violently several
times, leaving marks upon her person
several weeks. The plaintiff also
cites that during the month Of March,
1879, the defendant threatened to take
her life and actually did throw at her,
a boot-jack and several dishes, intend
ing and endeavOring TO hit and kill or
injure her. He also used obscene and
abusive names. Again, in 1884, the
defendant called the plaintiff abusive
names, and ordered her off the farm
and out Of the house, whereby caus-
ing the plaintiff much suferieg and
pain, both physically and mentally.
Further on in her complaint, she de-
clares that in the autumn Of 1889 the
defendant became violently angry and
in mad fit. in the presence of his
and chOked. beat and bruised her
until she was nearly strangled, and
until her face; lead and neck was
covered with marks and bruises.
Again in the month of May, 1861, he
clutched her wrists and hands and
flung her out Of the house, and threat
ened to break her neck. After citing
Aug. 18th, 1891 as another time when
the defendent injured her by clutch
ing her neck the plaintiff declares
under oath that the defendants whole
course Of conduct towards her, has
been for many years uniformly coarse,
brutal and dangerous. The plaintiff
demands Judgment that the bonds Of
matrimony be dissolved and that the
custody of the children be awarded
bnr and that a rn9GODah HE DrOviciOn
for the support of the plaintiff and
her children be made out Of the prop
erty Of the defendant.
After hearing the evidence in the
case, Judge Severance rendered the
decision that the marriage tie be de-
clared null and void, on the grounds
rs set forth in the complaint.
Pau & Young appeared for the
plaintiff and there was no appearance
on the part Of the defendant.
