Telegram from Loon Lake.

He then read telegram from President
Harrison who said he had looked forward
with great pleasure to this meeting with
his old comrades, and would have esteemed
it one of the highest honors of his life to
have welcomed them to the capital of an
unbroken union. He closed: at would
also have been one of the most favored and
tender incidents of my private life to have
taken these comrades by the hand again,
but all this has been denied me by the in
PREVENTION of sad and imperative duty,
and l can only ask you to give to all my
cordial greeting and good wishes. Accept
my sincere thanks for your very kind and
sympathetic message"

Reference to the Dead.

"The thought that so many of our gal
liant leaders cannot be with us today fills
our hearts with many sad reflections
They would respond cheerfully at the call
of friendship as they did in 1861 to the call
of duty. The vacant places they have
left in our ranks are more suggestive than
the presence of the living and if they are
not with us today it is because other
glories are reserved for them, while we are
left with others to enjoy the fruits of their
great labors.

modern methods of the soldiers of Uncle
Sans regular army and navy, for the prin-

CARNATIONS of the country.
Reviewed by the Vice President
The procession consisted of five brigades,
commanded by General Eugene A. Carrus-
a,..as follows: Troops of the regular army,
naval batteries and marines, District ma
tional guard, posts of the department of
the Potomac, Grand Army of the Republic
and Sons of Veterans. The procession
started at 10 o'clock from Second street,
west of the Capitol, and was reviewed by
the vice president from the reviewing stand.
Upon arrival at Grand Army Place the eX-
ercises were begun by prayer and music,
which was followed by the address of Com
mander in Chief Palmer.
General Palmer's Address.
Palmer was applauded vigorously when
he arose and said:
"CoMRADEs:-For the first time since the
close of the great civil conflict you will have
an opportunity of meeting your comrades
in arms in headquarters provided for
each of the great army corps that existed
during the war. 1t would certainly be in
vidious of me to single out or attempt to
mention any particular corps for its gallant
service. l know that human nature on the
average is about alike, and l can appreciate
how every soldier took special delight in
speaking with pride of the service rendered
by the corps in which he served, and no one
will object if when you get together today
the recollections of past dangers tempt you
to be enthusiastic.
All Loyal to the Cause.
"Whatever differences of opinion we may
have as to the gallantry of the several corps,
there is one point upon which we all agree,
that whether it was the comrade who wore
the star or the eagle, whether it was he who
were the insignia of a non-commissioned
officer or the common soldier who carried
his musket in the ranks each was loyal to
the common cause for which he served, and
each tried to do his full duty as he saw it.
The same can be said for each corps and its
gallant commander; each did its full share
in the contest and each shared in the glor-
ious achievements of the Union army.

FOUND AT LAST.

On March 18th, 1891, someone stole a
certificate of deposit for S2O40 be-
longing to Patrick Duffy, given by the
Citizens National Bank; and forging
the owners name, got it cashed at
Pond Bros. store. The one who got
it cashed was James Duffy, the young
son of Patrick Duffy, who bought q
pair of gloves costing 81, and got the
balance in change. The boy skipped
out and has not been heard of since.
His father sWore out warrant for his
arrest on the charge of grand larceny
in the second degree at the time. Yes
terday officer Daniels found the lad
working with threshing crew on the
Meyers place, several miles below the
city and locked him up. The prisoner
confessed his guilt, and said that he
stole the certificate out of the family
clock, where his father had placed it
for safe keeping. He said that another
boy forged Patrick Duffy's name to
the certificate.
The boy was brought into court We'd
nesday, but as his father was not
present, an adjournment was taken
until o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
1t is likely that he will be sent to the
reform school owing to his age.

A DESIRABLE IMPROVEMENT.

1t is rumored that an important
change in the mailing arrangement
will occur at the postoffice Oct. 1st.
1t is said that Charles Schwanenberg
will become night clerk and will be on
duty at the Office all night, or until
relieved in the morning. The mail
will be picked up at later hour than
now, for making up" AS the in
coming mails arrive throughout the
night they will be distributed, which
will allow of business men receiving
their mail an hour earlier in the
morning than at present. The mail
carriers will also be able to get out on
time.
1t will cost Postmaster Mcconnell
a good deal Of money out of his own
pocket to make the change, but it
would prove great convenience all
around. The business of the post
office is growing so rapidly that some
such change seems to be necessary,
and if Postmaster Mcconnell intends
to make the improvement, and we are
reliably informed he does, it will be a
creditable thing for him, as well as a
convenience to all patrons of the Of
flee.

EXTENSIVE IMPROVEMENTS.
From $15, 900 to $4,000 Expended at
The Big Mill, Increasing Its
Capacity.

Very few persons have an idea Of
the extent of the improvements just
completed at r. d. Hubbard's mill,
and those still in progress. During
the three weeks that the mill has
been shut down, new machinery has
been put in, which will increase it's
capacity 200 barrels day, bringing it
up to 1900. Three new roller mills
have been put in, each having double
sets of rollers. They are 9X24 inches.
Four new reels of the latest improved
pattern have been set up, and a new
Geo. L. Smith improved purifier for
middlings has been put in. The rolls
have been recorrugated. A. A. Brooks,
the experienced superintendent Of
the milling department., states that
the improvements made will result in
better grade of flour in the Straight
and Superlative brands than ever be-
fore turned out. Those who are ac-
quainted with the excellent quality Of
flour heretofore turned out will appre-
ciate what this statement means.
Great changes have been made in
the boiler room Three of the old
boilers have been taken out and four
new Quinn boilers put in. The boil
ers now aggregate 700 horse power. A
new wall for the boiler house is to be
put in fifteen feet south of the pres
ent one, and the space between to be
used for coal. The floor of the boiler
room will then be covered with sub
stantial tagging.
The electric light plant is now COM
plete and no further interruption to
the service will be necessary. The
plant consists of a 150-horse power
Sioux City Compound Corless engine,
and five dynamOS. The capacity of
the plant is $50 arc lights and innu-
merable incandesceht lights. The
plant is one of the best and most COM
plete in the Northwest. The building
is substantially built and contains
handsome, Office.

BOUND TO SUCCEED.

In another year if the plans of those
interested succeed, the Mankato Min
eral Springs will have national repu
tation. Arrangements have been
made with the Chicago & Northwest
ern road whereby spur track will be
run from Eagle Lake to the springs, q
distance of two miles. This will give
an impetus to the business and
shipments will largely increase.
The water is becoming very popular
in Chicago, and capitalists of that
city are negotiating for an interest in
the springs. D. L. Morse will go to
Chicago in few weeks to perfect ar
rangements, and if he is successful,
next year will not only see a railroad
connection, but the erection of a large
hotel. We trust that nothing will
occur tG frustrat epresent plans.

NARROW ESCAPE.
L. &. NJ. Fletcher Narrowly Escapes
Death or Serious Injury in a
Runaway.

L. G.. M. Fletcher had a closer es-
cape from death or a terrible injury
Tuesday than most men are
called upon to undergo. About 1900
O'Clock as he was getting into his car
rage opposite the postoffice his
horse started up suddenly and his
foot slipped from the step. He fell
between the box and wheel, and one
leg entwined about the step. In
this perlious position he was dragged
short distance, when the horse was
caught and stopped. Had the animal
not been secured almost Immediately
Mr.. Fletcher could not have escaped
with lighter injury than broken
leg, and very likely would have been
killed. 1t was necessary to take the
rear wheel off in order to release him.
AS it was he was he was fortunately
uniniured.

PROMPT ACTION.
The Health officer Proposes to Move
theoretically Toward Clean
ing Up the City.

DIR. G. f. Warner, city health officer
was seen by FREE PRESS reporter
today and gave assurances that he
will do all in his power to have the
city put in first class sanitary condi
tion. He said: "The new Inspector
Mr.. Kramer, is an energetic man and
will make valuable officer. BY my
direction he began the work of in.
speeding the city in Dukes addition
and is working south, and 1 think has
gotten to Main street. He has gone
through the district where several
cases of diphtheria have developed
and given it a thorough inspection.
Wherever he found anything out of
the way he notified the property own
ers to abate it. This morning he be-
gan to go over the district again and
whoever has not complied with his
directions will be arrested upon his
complaint and brought before the
municipal court, for punishment.
This policy will be applied in every
part of the city, and it makes no diff
ference who it strikes. High and low
alike must suffer if they do not
comply with the health requirements.
The public safety is above individual
convenience. l have kept the in
spector off of Front street thus far,
but we shall now commence a rigid
inspection of that street and the adj
jacent alleys. The only safe way is to
put in sewer connections. / am not
much in favor of the plan to put in
earth closets. If one does that, others
who can put in sewerage would COM
plain of partiality.
Cholera is dreadful disease. l
was attacked with the disease when
it visited this country in 1924, and l
have never been as well since. I was
sick for month before / could
stand up. My father and grandfather
died of it at the time. I have seen
as much of the dread disease as
any mau would care to,
and l know that we should
take every precaution that we can to
prevent it's reaching this city. 1t is
now so late that it is not likely to do
much damage in this country this
fall, if it succeeds in breaking through
the quarantine, but next year 1 look
for visitation from it. The disease
is not as bad in high attitudes where
the air is cooler. Freezing weather is
fatal to it. Beginning early next
spring, our people should refrain from
eating any vegetables whatever and be
very careful to get the system in first
rate condition, A man thus fortified
stands better chance of successfully
combating the disease"

QUIN1NE AND PE-RU-NA.
Two Great Malarial Remedies Com
pared.

Nothingis more clearly demonstrate
ed than that there are two distinct
malaria, which, for the want of
better names, may be denominated
acute and chronic. 1t has been
recently shown that the parasite
which causes malaria are different in
the acute and chronic forms. The
acute form is commonly known as
fever and ague, or chills and fever.
This form of the disease is too well
known in malarious districts to need
description, and is generally durable
by large doses of quinine, though this
is not so favorable remedy as Peru
ma. The chronic form of malaria is,
by no means, SO well understood, as the
symptoms are hardly ever exactly alike
in any two cases, and it is rarely, if
ever, durable by taking quinine oEach
case presents slightly different
symptoms, the most common ones
being dull headache, sallow complex
ion, furred tongue, bad taste, poor
digestion, shivering feelings, hot
flashes, cold feet and hands, and
constant, tired feelings.
Quinine will not cure cas- es of
chronic malaria as above described.
Pc ru- ma is the only specific for such
cases. Pe-ru-na is sure to cure, leaves
the system with no arrangement, and
produces no drug habit hard to leave
off, which Quinine will do.
Pe-ru-na is for sale at most drug
stores, accompanied with directions
for use: but those who are using it
should send for the Family Physician
