CHARTER REVISION.

The members of the council and the
Board of Trade committee on charter
revision held joint meeting Thursday
night in the council chamber, for the
purpose Of having friendly conference
in regard TO two sets of proposed
amendments. The meeting was annie
able, and though some serious differ
ences of opinion were held by the two
bodies, it was believed that a compro-
mise could be arrived at. To this end,
it was decided TO refer the whole mat
ter to a committee OF three to consist
of one member Of the council, one
member Of the Board. of Trade, and
one TO be selected by these two. The
members of the council subsequently
chose Aid. Harrington as their repre-
sentative.

the dispatch in yesterdays papers,
stating that the contract had been
awarded to the New York firm. who
shall use Ohio stone at SD per yard,
is correct.
During his remarks, Capt. Beatty
stated that if the stone forsthe public
building is taken from the Mankato
quarries, the quarrymen were talking
of combining and forming a cut stone
company. They would get the latest
machinery forcutting stone and would
be enabled to compete with any firm
in the country. The trouble in the
past has not been with the quality of
the stone, but from the fact that the
local quarrymen have been hampered
by lack of means TO put in the proper
facilities for competing with the old
and wealthy firms at other places.

OUININE OvERCOATS.

Few people have any idea of the
amount of quinine that is consumed in a
period of time or of that sold by single
dealer in the drug. Extravagant stories
have been told by individuals as to the
amount of the alcholoid which they
have consumed, and if it has not been
a quantity sufficient to put them in a
wooden oyercoat it would probably,
converted into cash, provide comfort
able top coat for winter wear. This time
of year overcoats are out of season,
ano he question uppermost is how to
keep cool and where. Rest and recrea-
ton come in that line. Thoughts of this
kind should lead one TO inquire of any
agent of the Minneapolis & st. Louis
BY. as to summer rates to tourists points
in all parts of the country, or for short
fishing excursions. Any special infor-
matien will be cheerfully furnished up
on application to C. M. Pratt, G. T. & P.
A., Minneapolis.

OFF THE TRACK.

Passenger train No. 1, due from the
North at 11:10 p. NJ, met with an ac-
cident last night east of LeSueur.
Owing to some cause not yet aScer-
tanned, the greater part of the train
was thrown from the track. The en-
CINE passed the point of danger with
out accident. But the baggage OF
smoker was thrown nearly over on its
side and more or less smashed. All
of the cars except two sleepers were
considerably damaged, but the extent
of the damage cannot be known close
ly until the cars are taken TO the
shops. Luckily, no one was injured.
Some Of the passengers were taken
back to St. Paul last night, and 9TH
ers were brought TO this city to-day by
the morning train from Sioux City,
which left its passengers at LIE Sueur
and returned TO Sioux City.
LATER.-Mr. A. s. Hamilton, of
Duluth, was on the wrecked train,
and arrived in this city at noon to-day.
He says that the accident occurred in
cut about one mile east Of LeSueur,
and is supposed TO have resulted from
the giving way of the forward trucks
of the smoker. At the time the train
jumped the track it was running about
80 miles an hour. The conductor who
was about midway through the car al
the time ran for the air break and
pulled it with such force as to stop
the train almost instantly, and by
this means no doubt prevented serious
injury TO person and perhaps the lives
of some of the passengers. He says
the CONSERVATION among the passen
gers was simply indescribable. Wo
men screamed, children followed
men trembled and everybody expected
death. The baggage car, smoker and
day coach were badly wrecked, and thu
sleepers were more or less smashed up
1t was a most fortunate thing that N
one was injured, as the train wa'
ycrowded with passengers.
The conductor was F. E. Blaser
who was somewhat injured in ont
hand.
The wreck delayed all trains. Tn,
night mail arrived this noon, and TIT
noon mail was several hours late.

A FRIENDS CONTRIBUTION.

Editor Free Press:
Now that the friends of George S.
Powlison have come nobly to his as
sistance in procuring bail and placing
him again free man. for the time
being at least, among his former as
sociates, and the many stories reflect
ing upon his past record have been
proven beyond doubt TO having been
base fabrications. the vital question
TO the true friends of the misguided
young man is not what he has done or
what indiscretions he has been guilty
of in the past, but what he is now and
what his future conduct will prove
him TO be: whether his essions of
regret for his crime are re and he
has the moral stamina t6 ,ieve his
character. These friends osing to
believe that their conf1de4 in Geo.
S. Powlison's expressed determination
TO henceforth lead a life void of Of
Tense is not misplaced, propose to
stand by him until there is every rea-
son TO believe him unworthy of such
confidence. These friends do not wish
TO condone his offense nor regard it
lightly. There are no mitigating cir
cumstances connected with it, and
their sympathy is based solely upon
the presumption that the young man
did not realize the gravity Of the
wrong he was committing against a
confding employer, that he weakly
yielded TO temptation and became in
the eye of the law at Leaf criminal,
and while his friends recognize the
justice of any punishment that offend
ed law DEGREES he shall suffer, yet viii
they stand by him as long as heis true
TO himself. In this / think / voice
the sentiments Of his real friends and
all others who possess that greatest
of Christian virtues, charity.
A FRIEND.

MAPLETON GOSSIP.
From the Enterprise.

The legislative committee visited
the Normal school at Mankato yester-
day. 1t is TO be hoped that they were
convinced of the needs of the school.
1t is understood that Mr.. Eli Mum
ger, of Sterling Center, will move TO
St. James in the spring and enter into
partnership with his son-in-law D. j.
Hudson. He has already purchased
property there.
VIM. Troendle and wife enroute
for home arrived in San Francisco on
the End inst. A week or two will be
spent in southern California visiting
friends, picking strawberries and an
nalizing the climate and then start
for home via Chicago.
MIR. S. Peet left for the Pacific
coast on Wednesday morning with a
view of looking up a location for the
removal of his mill, which owing to
the shipping rates given by the rail-
road is unable TO run full time. If
the railroad means business in regard
to locating industries along their
lines, they would do well TO look into
this matter and see if they cannot in
duce Mr.. Peet TO let the mill remain
at this place.

IChat6eld Democrat


The Minnesota Senate has passed
bill which allows liquor dealers to
take out license at any time during
the year and TO pay a proportion of
the yearly license according TO the
portion of the year covered by the Ii
cense. This looks like knavery-as if
the whisky ring had beer, at work. IF
it is not knavery then the men who
supported the measure are fools. The
effect of such law would be that a
large number of saloon men would
take out license for period of time
each year that would merely cover the
busy season. They would practically
reap all the advantages and profits Of
the trade, while the license they
paid would be reduced. Such a law
would rob the treasury Of large pro-
portion of the license revenue and
work injustice TO any dealer who paid
license for the entire year, by forcing
upon him an unlimited number Of
competitors during the busy and pro-
f1table season. But the practical eff
fects of the law would eventually be
that, except in the larger cities where
there is a steady trade the year round,
saloons would take out licenses to
cover only the busy season. During
that time the mber of saloons would
be largely increased over what they
are under the present system. Many
irresponsible persons would be able to
pay the short term license and go in
TO the business. There would be
decentralization of the business and a
recklessness Of the traffic such as has
never yet been seen. The law is a
cunning device to reduce the cost of
license, and those who supported it
understanding are knaves-men who
would be willing TO infiict any injury
on society TO advance their own inter
estS.

CERTIFICATES OF CHARACTER.

Mr.. B. d. Smith, attorney for Geo.
S. Powlison, in order to ascertain the
kind of reputation his client bore in
places where he formerly resided,
Thursday sent out three kilograms, and
the replies attached hereto are suf-ex-
planatory:
JETMoRE Kas., Feb. 5.
B. ID. SMITH, Mankato:
Lived here two years. His moral
character was ,Ood.
GEO. S1,RIGG, City Marshal.
HUTCHINSON, Kas., Feb. 5.
B. d. SMITH, Mankato:

sons character is excellent.
JERRY BALLINGER, Marshal.
LOWELL, Mich, Feb. 5.
B. D. SMITH, Mankato:
No young man ever left Lowell "
a better moral character and rP
tion than Geo. S. Powlison.
CHAs. MCCART-
President of well.
The above would seem 20 disprove
the reports that have BEEN in circula-
ton concerning Powlison's past his
tory. The stories were published by
all the papers, and have been given
wide circulation. Inasmuch as the
FREE PRESS, which first published the
rumOrs. has been criticized in some
quarters for so doing, we deem it but
due the public to state what our au-
thority for the statements was, which
we at the time considered reliable.
The statements were made voluntari-
ly TO representatives Of this paper by
Chas. NJ Marsh, in the FREE FREss
Office, and our representatives were
led by him TO believe that there was
no doubt of their truth. He stated
that Mr. Powlinson had confessed as
much TO him, and that certain letters
that were afterwards found corrober-
ated a portion of the rumors. In JUS
tice TO Mr. Powlison. we will state
that he denies the stories completely,
pronounces the statement that he
made any confession TO Mr.. Marsh OF
ever had any talk on the subject with
him as false, and denies ever receiving
anyletters that were of a compromising
nature. This leaves the burden of
proof with Mr.. Marsh, who, we under
stand, teft for Chicago shortly before
Mr.. PowliSon's return.
Mr.. Powlison's attorney B. D.
Smith, secured the necessary bail,
which was fled at 400 o'clock Fri
day and Mr.. PowlisOn was released.
Messrs. P. L. VraniZan, 7. II. An
drews and E. L. Halves signed the
bond.

THE MANKATO EISTEDDFOD.

On Feb. 18th the citizens of Min
nesota and the adjoining States viii
have the pleasure of witnessing most
ancient and unique bardic and
musical festival in Mankato, namely,
the WEIGH Eisteddfod-pronounced
ice-teth-yod the tn sounded as in
with and thou
1t will be held at Harmonic Hall in
this city, and it goes without saying
that it will be good musical, literary,
and financial success. This institu-
ton can trace back its history TO the
sixth century, when one was held with
great pomp at Teganwy, North Wales,
where Taliesyn, chief of bards, and the
bards of Malgwyn Gwynedd began the
noble and elevating practice of COM
petition in poetry and singing.
Space will not permit mentioning
the royal Eisteddfodau held in diff
ferent parts of Great Britain, over
which Kings and Princes deemed it
much honor to preside. 1t is sufi-
cent to allude TO those held annually
in Wales during the last quarter of a
century, whose splendor has been
sufficient to induce such magnates as
Sir Watkin Williams Wynn, Lord
Aberdare, ''The grand old man" Glad
stone. and the Prince of Wales TO be
present, preside and speak. The Els
teddfod is meat and drink TO the WEIGH
man, and is most enjoyable novelty
TO the American. 1t is neutral ground
where all may enter into friendly COM
petition and pure literary and musical
enjoyment. The Eisteddfod is truly
National in its character, and the
Celtic temperament with their in
tense love for song and poetry will
make the day success, no matter
what the weather may be. Several
choral societies have already an
nounced that they will compete for
the three prizes offered. DR.. Joseph
Parry's exquisite glee, ''TheTempest, !"
is the selection for which the chief
choral prize is offered. Among the
list will also be found quartettes,
trios, DUETS, solos, besides the poetic
subjects and recitations. Mr.. William
Apmadoc of Chicago is the adjudicat
or of the poetry and singing contests.
He has officiated in over seventy of
these competitive festivals. The fol-
lowing remarks are from the Pittsburg
Dispatch, after the recent Eisteddfod in
that city:
Mr. Apmadoc is today the most
thorough and able Eisteddfodist in
America, being qualified to perform
any duty in connection with the Els
teddfod. He has repeatedly, with
marked distinction, fulfilled the
functions of musical, elocutionary and
poetical adjudicator, besides acting as
conductor. He is the only Cambro-
American that has been hOnored with
being selected Adjudication Of the Ma
tional Eisteddfod in Wales. The
committee is to be congratulated up
on the selection of such superb
musician and elocutionist and poet
of no mean ability"
The Eisteddfod alluded TO was the
most enthusiastic ever held in this
country, where eight choirs of 100
each contested for $500 prize.
Let all lovers of music, poetry, rnci-
tation, and oraJory attend the Els
teddfod Of Feb. 18th at Mankato. All
such festivals should be patronized
by every good citizen.
