When ether was first discovered and
used in surgery it was said that to sbol-
ish pain would be to change the laws of
nature herself; that pain is safeguard;
that it indicates. in cases of injury, the
seat of injury, and in some instances
the cause of injury; that if men learned
to minimize or prevent it at pleasure
they might annul it altogether and in
vent a new constitution in which this
sentinel of danger would be at all times
off duty.-Dr. Richardson in Longman's
Magazine.

! once saw a woman faint in a car
rage when her coachman was driving
past a steam drill and the horses
wheeled swiftly as if they would over
turn the carriage. That woman on a
yacht, when a squall struck it and when
every man on board thought his last
hour had come, did not even cry out, be-
cause her husband had said in her ear,
Don't be afraid there is no danger. -

The many citizens of Fairhaven who
had the pleasure of hearing Rev. Walter
LaidlaN, the brilliant clergyman of
West Troy, n. Y, when he visited the
city last year and spoke in the Presby-
terrain and Congregational churches,
will be pleased to learn that he will be
here again within few days and will
probably spend two weeks OF more here
working In the interest Of the proposed
university. In fact his visit will de-
termine whether or not he will accept
the presidency Of the institution, in the
event that the necessary guaranty is
secured. And, further, upon his con-
nection with it the amount of aid
which can be secured from the east
largely depends. He is young man,
full Of life and energy-a scholar and a
gentleman, brilliant orator, an
able theologian and a close student OF
current events. In short he possesses
in an unusual degree the attachments
and attributes which are most essential
to make the head Of an educational
institution both popular and success
full. Monday evening he will lecture
at Thistle's hall for the benefit Of the
Orphans home and 1t is hoped that he
will be greeted by large audience. ALI
who attend will not only enjoy treat
but will aid most worthy cause.

The next lands to be opened TO settle

These lands belonged to the southern
Utes. After the agreement with these
has been finally ratified, the land will be
sold to settlers at the price of $3.50 an
acre. Then there will be one more
boomers rush, almost the last one in the
history of the country.

THE QUESTION or THE HOUR

Every subscriber to the wooden mill
bonus should constitute himself COM
mittee of one to assist in raising the
amount required. Whether or not the
mill is to be located here will depend
largely upon the result of the efforts of
the solicitors today and tomorrow. Mr..
Burkhart and his associates do not feel
like waiting longer than this week to
learn whether or not they can safely
rely upon getting the guaranty they
ask. They know that other places are
ready and anxious to accept their
terms and naturally are not disposed to
waste many weeks in waiting for yes
or no answer from here. The matter
has been very fully discussed and it
would seem that the ones who should
be most interested in the proposition
and most friendly to ii ought not to
require any further time for its consid-
Grafton. There is everything to recon-
mend the project and nothing that can
reasonably be urged against it. 1t
ought to be clear to all who have large
property interests here that it is only
through the establishment and opera
ton of such enterprises in our midst,
as well as through large corporate ex-
penditures, that their holdings will
eyer be salable at anything likely the
prices that their faith in the future has
set upon them. They will make very
serious mistake if they refuse to offer
reasonable inducements for the estab-
lishment of manufacturing industies.
1t is too much to expect that any rail-
road, unaided, will build city. There
must be manufactures to make business
for the railroads, give employment TO
labor and provide a market for the
products of the farms and forests as
well as for the goods of the merchants.
The Northern Pacific railroad has been
the great controlling factor in the
building of Tacoma, but if there had
been no other enterprise to contribute
to its growth and prosperity the stray
Cling and struggling hamlet of ten
years ago could not have become the
Peerless City" of today. AS result
of the liberal policy toward manu-
features pursued by the Tacoma Land
Company and the people generally the
city now boasts of over one hundred
different manufacturing enterprises,
employing over 1900 men and paying
out monthly, when all are in opera
ton, over $3.50, 900 in wages alone. OF
this amount less than one-fifth comes
from the Northern Pacific, which en-
ploys about 900 men there and favors
the city in every possible way. And
yet the complaint of dull times il
scarcely less general in Tacoma than it
Is in the smaller places on the Sound,
which owe their existence chiefly to
the abnormal development of the bump
of credulty which is such q striking
characteristic of our western people.
Tacoma cries for more manufactures.
They are recognized as necessity. and
to such ali extent that every practical
proposition receives liberal encourage
ment from the property owners and
business men. When a similar pol
icy is adopted here the substantial
work of city building will have been
commenced and structures more i'm
posing and lasting than air castles will
be built on our now vacant lots.

Professor Barnard. of the Lick OBJ
servatory, made some strange discov-
cries in connection with Swift's comet,
visible to the naked eye as a small, hay
star without a tail. The Lick telescope,
however, discovered tails enough-a
whole system of tails. From time to
time during the present month Professor
Barnard has been examining the comet.
He found that it had not only tails, but
forked tails, with curves in them. He
succeeded in photographing the remark.
able phenomenon, and the picture will
be one Of the most striking ever obtained
in the field of astronomy. The telescope
showed three principal tails, of which
the southern one was most distinct. The
most remarkable thing was, however,
that this tail grew 100000 of miles
in twenty-four hours, as observed under
the telescope.

A RIPE AGE.

Mr.. Orville Brown, one of the best
known men in Southern Minnesota,
enjoyed his eighty-second Christmas
dinner Friday. He was born in
Jefferson county, n. Y, in November,
1910. and has been a resident of Min
nesota for 80 years. When he cmigrat-
ed to this state, he settled in Chat
field where he spent a year, moving
thence to Faribault. For several
wears he edited newspaper there
and twenty-five years ago he came to
Mankato, where he has since lived,
and where he is highly respected. For
years his pungent editorials kept
matters lively in this community, and
even now his pen has lost none OF its
cunning. nor his mind none OF its
keenness. Mr.. Brown is a man of
strong convictions. He has no liking
for hypocritical pretensions and no
patience with those who practice de-
ceit for the purpose of gaining. tenn
porary popularity. Fearless and out
spoken in the denunciation of wrong,
Incorporating in his political views,
he is withal possessed of great good
heart and nature full of sympathy
and charity.
Mr.. Brown is an excellent neighbor
and a good citizen. and the FREE
PPEss. in common with all others,
wishes him many more merry Christ
masses.

WASECA ASSEMBLY.

The meeting of the directors Of the
Waseca Assembly was an enthusiastic
one. They have placed the Assembly
on sound financial basis so that its
perpetuity is beyond question. Ar
rangements were made for the best

been made with speakers and one
Of the best musical directors of the

that Hon. Henry Watterson, of Ken

DEATH OF CHAS. A. PAYNE.

The telegraph Saturday brought the sad in
tellgence of the death of one OF our former most
highly respected citizens, Mr.. Chas. A. Payne, at
San Jose, California, which occurred yesterday,
the 25th inst. Mr.. Payne came to this city
from Ogdensburgh, n. Y, some 20 years ago,
when on account of the health of himself
and wife he q couple of years ago de-
termined to try milder climate and removed
to San Jose, California, where he has since re-
sided. He came east early in the autumn of the
present year and spent several weeks in visiting
his sons and friends in this city and LakeCrystal
making, during the time, a daughter in New
York visit. He returned to his California
home few weeks since, accompanied by his
son James from this city. Mr.. Payne was a
highly respected citizen and an active, successful
business man of our city while a resident
failing health compelling some relaxation the
last two or three years. Heart trouble seemed
to be the principal difficulty. His residence in
California seemed to improve his health but did
not weaken his confidence in the future of his
old home in Mankato, or his attachment to
Mankato friends. He made frequent visits to
his former home and friends, and on one of his
visits purchased the fine brick store on Front
street built by Randall & Smith, which he still
owns, with considerable other property in the
city and county. No, particulars of his death
or disease have been received at this writing,
but it is presumed that heart failure was the
cause. The brief dispatch was a sad shock to
to his many friends and associates i'll the city,
who loved him for his manly virtues. A man OF
strict integrity, correct habits and sound prnci-
pies he made friends with all who met him In
business or social circles He leaves a wife,
three sons and two daughters to mourn the loss
of an aifectionate husband and father. and the
citizens of Mankato an estimable and worthy
member O society in past wears.

CHAS. HODGE SHOT.
By Officer Daniels While EScap
ing From the Clutches OF
the Law.

Monday morning about 3 o'clock,
officer Walter Daniels heard noise
in the neigborhood of G. M. Phillips
barn, on Walnut street. AS he start
ed to investigate, he saw man dart
out ofthe corn crib and run across the
barnyard. He pursued him and
shouted at him to halt, but the man
did not heed the call and after calling
three times more to halt, the officer
pulled his revolver-38 calibre-and
fred at him. The man fell in his
tracks about 100 feet east of Second
on Walnut street.
At this moment offer Kelly appear
ed on the scene and assisted the
wounded man to headquarters. The
prisoner was identified as Chas.
Hodge, of No S12 N. Fourth street.
A physician was called Immediately
and on examining the man it was
found that the bullet had entered his
back, just above his right hip and
passed through his body. The piece
of lead was found in his clothes.
About ten o'clock, he was removed to
his home at No. S12 North Fourth ST..
The physician who dressed his wounds
says that recovery is doubtful.
About 9o'clork Monday morning the
wounded mans wife entered head
quarters and on seeing her husband,
cried out: ''Oh my darling Charlie,
why did you do it, why did you do it?
Turning to a FREE PRESS reporter
she said: ''Oh, have expected this
for years"
From the records of the district
court, it appears that the prisoner
was arrested and indicted in the
spring of 1881, for shooting a man by
the name of Joseph Schneider in the
leg. He has been in several scrapes
for the past few years but none of the
charges were pressed.
About week ago this same indi-
vidual managed to escape from officer
Schiman while crossing yard in the
lower part 9 the city. The prisoner
left bag = clothing behind in the
possession of the officer and which is
now in the hands of Chief Yates.
Public sentiment seems to be on the
side Of officer Daniels who is faithful
officer, and everybody thinks he did
the right thing in calling him down
with lead when he found he could not
catch him. He has been a member
of the police force for about three
years and has made several good ar
rests.

DEATH OF MRS. MARY FOWLER.

At the ripe old age of 10 years, Mrs.
Mary Fowler passes from this life to
the one beyond the tomb.
Sunday morning at daybreak
those who stood about her bedside re-
allied that the end was near at hand,
and just as the clock struck s the cord
of life was snapped and her soul took
it's flight. Her demise occurred
at the house of her son, Mr.. j. q.
Fowler in West Mankato. The funer-
al services were held in the Metho-
dist church Monday afternoon at two
o'clock, the sermon being delivered
by Rev. f. M. Rule.
'sFor we must all appear before the
Judgment seat of Christ" were the
words selected by the pastor as the
subject of his remarks. He spoke in
touching manner of the stirring
times in which the deceased lived.
At the conclusion of the ceremonies
the remains were taken to Glenwood
cemetery and there inferred.
Mrs. Fowler was born in England in
1872 and came IN 1850 to this country
with her husband and located at st.
Paul. he being jeweler by trade.
Seven years later they came to Man
kato and made their home here.
Her husband died about 20 years
ago and ever since that time she has
lived at the home of her son, Mr.. j.
G.. Fowler, who cared for her only as
true son should. A few weeks ago
she was taken very i'll and her life
was dispaired Of, but through good
attention she rallied for time.
The deceased leaves a son and
daughter to mourn their loss, besides
host of those who new her in life as
a lovable and kind mother, and SYM
pathetic friend.
