LAKE CRYSTAL. Feb. 13

LAKE CRYSTAL, Feb. 10.
At a dance helfat the house of j. p.
Meyer last night, dispute arose be-
tween one Carl Wilson and Theodore
Anderson at about II o'clock. Chris
Thorstad interfered. Thorstad was
seen to fall to the floor. He was
picked up and placed on a lounge, and
when it was time to go home they
went to wake Thorstad up and he was
found to be dead.
A monkey wrench with spots of
blood upon it was found near where
Thorstad fell, also spots of blood upon
the floor.
The general opinion here is that
there was a general row and that
some one struck him with the mon
key wrench.
The deceased was about % years old,
honest and upright. He worked for
t. Rooney, of Mankato, for short
time He was unmarried.

MISS ETA MCBRIDE REPORTED
FOUND.

A special dispatch dated at Atlanta.
Ca, to the Minneapolis Tribune says:
Eta Mcbride, the missing Mime
sofa school teacher, has been located
at last. She is not dead as reported,
but alive and in the vicinity Of Charles
ton The story connected with the
disappearance is familiar to the 1ri-
bune. Miss Mcbride left her home in
Minnesota in July and went to Bur-
lington, Va, for the benefit of her
health.
She remained there until a few
months ago when she came South,
going to Charleston, where she was
supposed to have died. The search
instituted by her brother-in-law Lam
berton, failed to discover her where
abouts, though it developed beyond
QUESTION that she was not dead. Since
Mr.. Lamberton left Atlanta the pc
lice authorities have been searching
for Miss Mcbride. Yesterday they
ascertained where the school teacher
was. The mystery has been partly
unrayeled and the lady has met with
no foul play, nor has she suicided
as was supposed by some. but
is now at Mt. Pleasant, S. G. A few
days after she disappeared Miss
Mcbride went to Oakley, S. c., where
in company with young man they
bought horse, borrowed buggy and
went into the country. From there
they made their way to Mt. Pleasant,
and it is supposed that there was a
romantic marriage in the meanwhile.
Detectives Miller and Mauch, of
Charleston, have gone to the little
town to bring Miss Mcbride to that
city. What reason the charming
miss could have had for her strange
manner of allowing her family to re-
main in darkness about her where
abouts is mystery that she will be
able to solve.

TAKEN INTO CUSTODY.

A post norton examination of the
body of Christ Thorstad, who died
very suddenly at Butternut Valley, on
Saturday morning, was conducted
Monday by DR.. Herring, of Lake
Crystal The examination disclosed
the fact that the deceased had evil
IDENTIFY come to his death by blow or
kick in the lower part of the ab-
domen. Evan Thorstad, brother of
the deceased, made out complaint
before Justice Meade and a warrant
was issued for the arrest of Theodore
Anderson. Deputy sheriff Bowen ar
rested Anderson and brought the pris-
oner to this city about one O'Clock
last Tuesday. He returned to Lake
Crystal on the eleven O'Clock train
Tuesday, for the purpose of arraigning
Anderson before the proper tribunal,
for the purpose of having a day set
for hearing.

CAUSE OF DEATH UNKNOWN.

On Saturday morning, when Coroner
Shoemaker arrived at Butternut Val
ley and found the people excited over
the sudden death of Christian Thors-
tad, he empaneled jury consisting
of w. III. Cole, n. p. John, G.. M. Cole,
P. d. Neff, G. A. johnson and p.
Riley. After examining the body,
they went to the house of Mr.. j. p.
Meyers for the purpose Of hearing the
witnesses testify. Dr. I'll. III. Herring,
of Lake Crystal, was called and after
critically examining the body of the
deceased, was sworn and testified that
he was unable to discover mark OF
bruise of any kind upon his person
that would lead to the belief that
there had been foul play. Among the
witnesses called, were Mr.. Anderson,
Miss Ida Wilson, Mrs. Bradshaw, j.
P. Meyers. They all told the story of
how the deceased fell down and a
little while afterward was discovered
to be dead. The jury rendered the
following verdict: "That the said
deceased, Christian Thorstad game to
his death on the night of Feb. 18th,
1892, between the hours Of II O'Clock
midnight of Feb. 18th, and l o'clock,
of Feb. 10, 1892, in granary on the
farm of J. P. Meyer in the township
of Butternut Valley. That the
cause of death of deceased is to this
jury from the facts presented, I'M
KNOWN

floor and for the benefit of those who
had not heard of the offer, stated that
when a carriage factory had been
preached at meeting of the Board
of Trade some few weeks ago, a gen.
tleman Mayor Willard) had offered to
subscribe for $4,000 worth of stock.
He only suggested this to show that
with a few more thousand dollars
carriage factory could be started
within short time. In concluding
his remarks he said that he believed
such an organization as had been sug-
gested would return ten fold in four
years.
Mr.. John N. Hall, who had been a
listener during the entire evening,
arose at this stage of the proceedings
and said that the organization was
for young men who were grounded in
the belief that they were to make
Mankato their home and do business
here. He said that the Board OF
Trade believed the young men could
give some enterprise a start IL they
would only decide to Go it. He spoke
of a similar organization at st. Paul,
with a capital of S1,000,000, which is
now in it's third year of existence.
''There are men," said he, ''who are
ready to come to our city with their
factories, but they want little more
capital to help them along. | am
willing to risk $500 in such company
as has been suggested. (Applause).
If it will build up Mankato, say God
speed. We want a large dictatorship
of young men who will take bold with
will and push it through. We want
"dinner-pail" men in this city, and
by that | mean to say factories that
will employ many hands. We must
have more manufactures in order to
grow"
When Mr.. Hall had concluded his
remarks, Mr.. B. d. Smith, for the
purpose of getting the question be-
fore the house, made motion that
the plan, as outlined by Gen. Pope, be
declared the sense of the meeting.
The chairman called for the ayes and
nays, and everybody voted aye.
On motion of Mr.. Higgs, a commit
tee of five was appointed to consider
plan for drafting incorporative pa
pers and to report at an adjourned
meeting to be held in the Armory,
on Tuesday night, Feb. 49, at 7:30
o'clock.
The following committee was ap-
pointed: Messrs. Pope, Frank Glenn
ents, B. D. Smith, W. E. Young and
Frank Pay.

SHOULD EXERCISE CARE.

1t is reported that the officials OF
the Mankato s. n. E. r. r. have de-
cided that the proper place for their
depot is in the rear of The Saulpaugh.
The land in that locality is control
led by the city and is dedicated to
Railroad purposes, but in granting
any portion of it to any corporation,
the council should act with caution.
AS Mankato is located the only
practical route for any railroad to get
through the city is along the river.
The land that is available for such a
purpose is contracted into very mar
row strip right at the bridge or in the
rear of The Saulpaugh. A considera-
BILE portion of this strip has already
been given to. the c., M. & ST. ?.
The Northwestern and St. Louis
roads may want to extend through
the city at some time, and other roads
may want to come in. By economic
ing the space and allowing each road
only enough ground for a single track,
the probability is that all the roads
that desire to get through there can
be accommodated, but no road should
be allowed more than one track
through that narrow strip.
1t would be exceedingly unWise, to
say the least, for the council to allow
any railroad to locate depot there
and thus debar all other roads from
getting through, or even to grant
more ground than is necessary for a
single track.
This is not written from any hostil-
ity to the Mankato & n. e. project,
as the writer is in full sympathy with
the movement and hopes to see it sue
coed, but thinks also the officials OF
the proposed road should consult the
interests of our city and bear in mind
our possible future needs and limited
space to supply themsand locate their
depot in some of the equally eligible
places. A BUSINESS MAN.

From the Enterprise:

AT the band meeting last night it

Mr.. Taylor, the horse buyer, has
paid out nearly 1000 in this locality
in the past two weeks. On Monday
night he shipped car load to Monte

The event in the church circles, for
the coming week, will be the dedica-

One OF the most pleasing and en-
joyable features of Odd Fellowship is
the social and fraternal visits which
are INDUCED ia between sister lodges,
and the visit on Monday evening of
some twenty of Amboy's stalwart
three-link boys proved the truthful
ness of this assertion. The Mapleton
boys showed their appreciation of the
visit by entertaining their honorable
guests in right royal manner.

The Shooting at Antelope.

Last Saturday evening a shooting afray
occurred at Antelope, in which Ed. Glisan
was shot through the body by W. F. Kel-
say, producing very serious. if not fatal
wound. Glisan has been refused liquor by
the saloons by reason of his habits o. intox-
ication, but manages to procure supply by
procuring friends to purchase whisky by
the bottle On this occasion meeting with
Kslsay he offered him his bottle, and in
drinking Kelsay accidentally blew some In
very angry. Loud words followed and
GlIsan appeared as though he was drawing
his pistol when Kelsay shot him. The char
acter Of Kelsay, as far as we can learn, is
excellent, he being a peaceable, industrious
citizen, and not quarrelsome except when
suffering great provocation. Glisan Is the
IN an who shot and killed Pratt at Antelope
a few years ago and was acquitted by trial
jury in this city. Since that time he has
led wayward life, and his wife has warned
all saloons against furnishing him liquor.
1t is not known whether the wound will
prove fatal or not; but hopes are entertained
of his recovery.
On Tuesday Kelsay had preliminary ex
animation before the justice of the peace
and was released from custody on giving
bonds in the sum or $500. The wounded
man at last account was improving and is
expected to recover.

English Free Trade.

DUFUR, March "a, 1892.
Editor TINES -MoUNTAINEER:
Will you be so kind as to allow me TO In
sert a few lines in your valuable paper in
reference to an article was reading in your
issue of March 18th, in regard to free trade
by those men who are 'know-ltalls." As
l lived in England for fifty years before
coming to this country 1 know little about
1t myself. 1 have seen the working of 1t
and the results of it ever since the begin
ming, which has been the means of break
ing up thousands of respectable homes and
taking the bread out of the mouths of
thousands of families, and likewise filling
the poorhouses to oyerfowing with paupers,
so that in many instances they had to be
sent to other county poorhouses as they
could not make room for them in their own.
A great many were sent to the town where
1 lived, which was Banbury, Oxfordshire,
England, and had to be paid for by othel
counties. Now these ''know-alls" try to
make out that the riches of England are ac.
cumulated by free trade, which let's tEem
out that they know nothing about 1t.
In snort time 1 shall be in The Dalles
when I will deliver an address on the free
trade question and other political matters,
and then l shall be open to discuss the
question with any one that wishes to do so;
but, in the meantime, will adyIse the peo-
pie of The Dalles to beware of wolves
prowling about in sleeps clothing, as they
may be as unscrupulous in their actions as
they are in the false statements they have
haan linn

Sentinel, A lively ghost story has of late
been gong the rounds Of our quiet little
city. 1t seems some one departed from the
troubles of this life has failed to find rest,
and of late has been taking nocturnal walks
through the streets of Goliendale. 1t was
seen about week ago by some boys, but
the boys did not pursue it to find out what
it wanted. A short time after it pursued
one of our doctors along the street about a
block, but when the doctor turned round
the apparition fled to the old adobe build.
ing, which has been unoccupied for long
time. The doctor not thinking the matter
of much importance went on home. The
next time 1t was seen was by a young man
who saw it across an alley, but the ghost
passed out of sight. The ghost succeeded
in frightening two ladies on last Saturday
night. It is dressed in woman's attire, but
those who have seen it believe it to be a
man. One thing Is sure, the people of
GoIdendale are not superstitious and some
one is playing ghost.
