A thief entered Manly Motifs resi-

beeh left in the inside pocket of his

his coat, containing S45, also a gold
watch and chain, then passed on into
his sleeping room, took his pants and
rifled those of a jack knife and plug
of tobacco. The job was so neatly
done Mr.. Mott never heard a sound
but realized his loss next morning.
The next night thief was heard
prowling around Mr.. Barton's resi-.
dence. Mr.. Barton had that day re-
ceived little money for work and it
is supposed the individual knew of it.

Thirty years ago today the people
of Minnesota Valley were in state of
intense excitement. This is the thir-
tieth anniversary of the outbreak of
the Indian War. The many notable
changes that have occurred since
those trying scenes will recur to the
minds of the old settlers and cause
them to turn backward and contrast
the events of that period with the
present; to call to mind the present
prosperous condition of the city as
compared with the scattering hamlets
OF 1852, and to note what wonderful
developments and progress have been
made in the mean time. The young
man of that time is now gray haired
sire; the old man then has long since
been laid away to eternal rest. Who
can forecast what thirty years hence
will have in store for the youth oe to-
day?

WHERE ARE WE AT?"

After listening to the deliberations
of the Mankato city council for a
few meetings the onlooker is confront
ed with the query: Where are we
at?" For years Barnum's circus has
been advertised in all parts of the
civilized globe as the Greatest show
on EARTH" but the enterprisiDg gen
tleman who writes up the flashing adj
vertisements of this truly wonderful
aggregation of living curiOSities and
ancient relics has evidently failed to
look upon our city fathers when Sit
ting in royal seance, passing judgment
as to how best to sQuander the hard
earned dollars OF the TAX payers.
We find this august body construct
ing Sixth street crossing so high
"higner than lower" as one man APPLY
put it last night-that resident is
obliged to cut a scuttle hole IN his
roof to gain access to his residence.
We find it paying for culve' through
the openings of which one could chuck
the ordinary alderman without touch
ing button on his official garment as
he passed through.
We note it spending hours Of time
discussing the proprietN OF denying
citizens the pleasure of driving on the
track in the park, and then turning
around and letting Barnum's circus
have access thereto for the munificent
sum of $35 and few complimentary
tickets. We find the streets growing
up so densely with noXious weeds as
to disgust even small children before
this distinguished body gets move
on itself. We observe it granting
water rent to certain 'infoOential"
patrons at from 500 to 1925 per year
while it draws the life blood from an
other at the tune Of between five and
six hundred dollars for less than half
the water consumed. La the absence
of one Of the best and most thoroughly
equipped men in the council we find
him turned down by weak sister for
having been charged with land proba
bly, is guilty of directing the most
creditable and practical piece of street
work ever done in the city-the grad
ing of the cemetery road. And among
the other notable deeds of ineXplicable
damphoOlishness was the awarding of
the city printing to newspaper at so
per cent. advance in price over what
was offered by another-the bids being
submitted upon the published request
of the council.
What the present council should do
is to either close up the side shows
and cOntine itself to the main circus, or
rent more capacious hall for the en-
tertainment of larger assemblage of
citizens. A slight admission fee might
appropriately be charged just to keep
the small boys from crowding the
aisles, and thus give adults a better
chance to view the scene. Much of
the doings are amusing, others undig-
nlfied, and still others abso-
lutely disgusting to the finer sensibil-
titles of men.
