The approach of the Worlds fair
has brought so many inquiries to
the Pennsylvania railroad COM
pany, relative to the tranSpOrta-
ton of merchandise, of unusual
shapes and sizes, that it was
deemed advisable to make an eX-
animation of the size of all tun-
nels and the Roadway under all
bridges on the cOmpany's lines. To
do this a platform was built up on
one end of gOndOla car, about D
feet above the platform of the car
and about 9 feet square. Over
the center of the platform
a transverse frame is fixed,
rigidly. A number of small rods
can be moved in and out from this
frame until they touch the sides of
the tunnel or the bottom of the
bridge. BY measuring the
amounts they project it is thus an
easy matter to determine the exact
amount of room in which the car
and its load may be free to move.
this car is pulled by a locomotive,
and is followed by the car in which
the party making the survey is
housed and fed, and last of all by
electric light car, which carries the
engine and dynamo to furnish cur
rent for lighting up the tunnels
while measurements are being
made.

A NEW SANITARIUM.
The Texas Medical and Surgical In
stitute


Are negotiating for the building Of a
Sanitarium. Consequently it is a perma-
nent institution. The president, DR.. q.
A. Munch.iS a gentleman of many hOnOrS,
and whose credentials cannot be surpaSS-
ed, having four diplomas from prominent
medical colleges two honorable diplomas,
one for diseases of women, also aIllcenSed
NJ. ID. by the state medical board of Color
ado.
We realize our reputation is at stake
and we propose TO maintain our reputa-
ton by cures effected under our care and
by our treatment. Every case that we
undertake to treat and fail TO cure IS a
direct injury to us. Therefore we must be
prudent and careful. Consequently we
always give an honest opinion on all cases
that consult us, and If we believe you
durable after an examination, we will tell
YOU so. and what it will cost you, and
leave you free to decide for yourself. We
will not urge or persuade you to take
treatment.
We treat all diseases, and particularly
solicit those of lingering, difficult or
doubtful character.
Our prices are low to suit the needs of
the people, and we furnish our own medi-
cines. DR.. G. A. Munich and his assist
ants are graduates from the most prOmi-
nent medical colleges, none of them hav-
ing less than two diplomas. Each doctor
is skilled in their several specialtieS, and
thus combined, the Texas Medical and
Surgical Institute has staff of physicians
that make a speciality of almost every
disease that the human flesh is heir to.
Therefore you can readily see that sue
cess is sure to follow our treatment. so
sure are we of success in all cases we un-
dertake that we will give a contract in
writing to cure. As the doctors OF the
Texas Medical and Surgical Institute are
graduates of all the different schools OF
medicine they do not COniine to any ore
school or system of medicine. We treat
our patients to cure them, and use with
out prejudice whatever will accomplish
that result.
There are no two cases of disease eX-
actly alike, and for this reason no two
cases can be treated exactly alike. The
great success of our treatment is largely
due to the fact that we watch every step
in the patients progress carefully and
suit the medicines and treatment to the
exact condition. None but quacks and
impostors will undertake to cure serious
disease in any other way, and all who
claim to cure various diseases by means
of this or that ONE remedy are deceiving
the public. We make speciality of Apo
plexy, Epilepsy, Fits, Insanity, Rupture,
Piles, Blood and Skin Diseases (Scrofula),
TumOrS, Cancers, Lung Diseases, Dis
eases of tho Eye and Ear, Diseases of
Women, Private Diseases, Sexual Debil-
ity, etc. No matter what your troubles,
how serious or how long standing, con-
suit us. We will in strictest confidence
give you our opinion free Of cost. And If
too poor to pay for treatment we will
treat free all such applicants on Tuesdays
and Saturdays from to p. m.
Consultation, examination and advice
free. The Texas Medical and Surgical

BLUE EARTH COUNTY CORN.

The Minnesota worlds fair commits
sioners have received from Mr.. L. S.
Terry, of Vernon Center, this county,
one of the finest exhibits of corn that
has been shown on the grounds at
Jackson Park, and they have some
fine exhibits there. 1t is this years
growth, and the ears are from twelve
to fourteen inches in length, and pro-
portionately large in diameter, The
cob is quite small, while the kernel is
of mammoth size. The ears are well
formed and well filed to the tips
with perfect kernels. Parties who are
good judges pronounce it one of the
best specimens of corn to be seen In
Agricultural hall, and specimens to
rival it will have to be very fine ones
indeed. In 1892 corn, there IS scarcely
a doubt but that II. w. Mendenhall
of Rapidan, will receive an award
Blue Earth county seems destined to
stand we'll to the front on the corr
question.

NORr1ALS VS.. HIGHS.

The football game announced for
Saturday afternoon, was played ac-
cording to program, the opposing
teams lining up about $3.50.
The ball was put into play by the
High school team, which gained
steadily until within twenty-five
yards of the Normal goal, when the
ball went to the Normals in scrim-
mage.
Then followed a series of V rushes
and runs which brought the ball very
near the Highs goal, when by sharp
run around the end a touch down was
scored for the Normals. Thos. Hayes
then failed to kick goal, thus scoring
a safety for the High school team.
The game was very closely contested.
although the greater number of
pounds of weight in the Normal team
gave them a decided advantage,
ALI the members of both teams
played very well. Rapid and decisive
movements, with no wrangling, were
the characteristic features of the
game. This was largely due to the
fair way in which the umpire, Prof
O'Shea, rendered his decisions.

The horsemen are talking of lay
ing out new race track next spring,
to be inclosed. This is on account of
the objection raised to the use of the
fair grounds. The ball club is also
talking of enclosing a ground, as so
many people refuse to pay admittance
to the games at the fair grounds that
outside clubs will not come.
The roads are in first rate condi-
tion through the country, and in
some places are again dusty. The
rain falls of the week have mellowed
the soil and blowing has been resum-
ed. The winter wheat and rye that
was sown early has not yet sprouted,
owing to the past dryness.
II. r. Coughlan will finish the
grading Of the North Front street

JUDGE DICKINSON RESIGNS.

Judge Dickinson, of the supreme
court has resigned his position to take
effect the first of next month, and
Gov. Nelson will appoint Judge Buck,
of this city. to fill the vacancy. The
Pioneer Press says that the reasons
for Judge Dickinson's resignation are
purely those Of convenience. His term
expires with the present year, and
Judge Buck was elected last fall to fill
tina coming vacancy. AS the new
term of court opens Oct. 1st and ex-
tends into the middle of the winter, it
is matter of convenience to both
Judge Dickinson and Judge Buck
that it should be broken into. Judge
Buck will accordingly be appointed so
as to begin the fall term and carry it
through unbroken.
Judge Dickinson will join the law
firm of Bilson & Congdon of Duluth.
which will be known as Bilson, Cong
don & Dickinson.
Mankato people will be sorry to
learn that Judge Dickinson has con-
cluded not to return to this city to
reside, but will wish him unbounded
success in his new home, and Duluth
is to be congratulated in securing
him as a citizen. Mankato will also
offer congratulations to Judge Buck
upon his appointment, and hope that
his life in his new field of labor may
be cast in pleasant lines.

BOUND OVER.
CONWAY Committed Back to Jail to
Await His Trial in
December.

VIM. Conway, one Of the alleged
murderers of Harry M. Walraven, was
brought into court Saturday morning
ten O'Clock, the case having been ad-
journed over until this time. The at
torney for the prisoner, Byron Hughes.
arose and stated that the defense
would waive further examination.
The court bound the prisoner over
to await the action of the grand jury
in December, and having no power to
fix bail in such case, committed him
back to the county Jail.
The large crowd present, who had
expected to hear some more testl-
mony, was disappointed.

fair likenesses of Layne and Conway.

said to have declared that he was nc

posed to him. The pencil sketches
are almost as satisfactory, however.

THE BIG TILL.

r. D. Hubbard's mill was never in
as good condition as it is at present.
One has but a faint idea of the mag
nitude and cost of this plant until he
has an opportunity of going through
it. The office force alone numbers
ten, and there is no idling there. The
overhauling which the mill received
last spring was a great benefit, Mr..
Hubbard, since becoming the exclu-
sive owner of the mill, has put in
many thousand dollars in improve
ments and new machinery. Five
new cleaners and as many graders
have recently been added. The daily
output of flour now is 1000 barrels of
the best product to be foundcany-
where.
MI. Hubbard has no difficulty in Sec
uring money to carry on the large
business. Hubbard & Palmer's thirty
elevators are buying wheat and pay
ing cash for all that is offered and
there is no fear but that they will
continue to do so. as the money mar
ket is becoming easier every day.
Mr.. Hubbard believes that wheat
will not go much higher, and that the
chances are that 1T will go down in
price. He is marketing all that the
firm has, and advises the farmers to
bring theirs in at once and not run
the risk Of the future. He does not
believe that the estimates of the
worlds crop justify the expectation
of high prices.

A STRANGE CASE.
How an Enemy was Fooled.

The following graphic statement will DC
read with intense interest: - cannot describe
the numb, creepy sensation that existed in my
arms hands and legs. l had to rub and beat
those parts until they were sore, to overcome
in a measure the dead feeling that had taken
possession of them. In addition, L had q
strange weakness in my back and around my
waist, together with an indescribable gone
feeling in my stomach. Physicians said it
was creeping paralysis, from which, accord
ing to their universal conclusion, there IS no
relief. Once it fastens upon person, they
say, it continues it's insidiOus progress until
it reaches vital point and the sufferer dies.
Such was my prospect. L had been dOctOring
a year and a half steadily, but with no par
ticular benefit. when | saw an advertisement
of DIR Miles Restorative Nervine, procured a
bottle and began using it. Marvellous as it
may SEEM but few days had passed before
every bit of that creepy feeling had left me-,
and there has not been even the slightest
indication of it's return. 1 now feel as
we'll as / ever did, and have gained ten
pounds in weight, though 1 had run down
from ITO to 1877. Four others have used DR..
Miles Restorative Nervine on my recomen-
daton and it has been as satisfactory in their
cases as in mine."-James Kane, La Rue, o.

OPENING STREETS.

The village of Madison Lake is en-
gagged in tussle with the Minneapo-
lis & st. Louis road in an endeavor to
open two new streets across the rail-
road track. According to the plat of
the village, only one street crosses
the railroad, the main street now
used. The village council desires to
open two parallel street, one on each
side of the present street, but the
road has denied crossing over its
right of way. The council has re-
tanned @. 0. DALEY as it's attorney,
and the latter has secured permission
of Judge Hicks, of Minneapolis, to
bring suit against the road to secure
condemnation of the necessary
crossings. If the council is successful
the railroads will be obliged to move
one of its switches, which is directly
in the path of one of the proposed
streets. The company claims it
would be put to an expense of $500 if
the streets are put through.
The two streets which it is desired
to open and extend are fifth and
