During the last ten days he has devoted
his entire time TO the consideration of the
applications. lie went over the letters of
Endorsements and petitions carefully. He
saws it was a difficult matter to discriun-
mate between good men who applied for
the same Office. Everything equal he
gave preferences to old soldiers. MY
chief object" said he to The SENTINEL
correspondent, lis to give the people
good service. In some cases good men
applied for the postoffice who had too
much private business, and knowing
that they could not give the office suili-
Gent time, l couli not see my way clear
to recommend them for appointment
We want postmasters who will be In the
office all the time. The postoflice is the
Office nearest the people. and the patrons
always prefer % do business with the
head OF the Office than with the assistant"

The four-mlle course for the eight
cared races on Minnotonka has been
laid out. 1t is a good course, with deep
water all The way, and plenty of room
at either end. The better starting point
is from the WayZata end off Breezy
Point The steering from there would
be for the opening between Morse's
island and Summerville, thence past
Brightwood island to Excelsior. Tie
course is straightaway. is well marked
for steering purposes, and the finish, in
fact the whole course, is well situated
for spectators.
The Minneapolis Tennis club will
meet at the West April II and reOrgan-

TEXANS GULLED,

LIBERTY, Tex, April 5.-About a
week ago woman with several chill
dren arrived here and stopped at the
Travellers hotel. She claimed to repre-
sent a car wheel factory in Chicago,
and that she had come to Texas to in
vest IN land. Among those from whom
she purchased land were Mrs. Debat
and ii. S. Swilley. The latter was
appointed her agent, giving him
carte blanche to buy and draw
on her. She gave checks in part
payment of her land purchased which
we're today, by kilograms from the
banks of Chicago and Kansas City, de-
clared to be worthless. Last night she
attended ball, and being supposed
wealthy woman was royalty treated.
This morning she and her children were
seen walking down the track of the
Southern Pacific toward Louisiana.
Warrants will be issued for her appre-
hensiOn on charge of swindling. This
same woman has been operating all
over Texas. her mode of procedure in
different towns being changed. In
Dallas she purchased large hotel,
furnished it elegantly, collected board
money in advance, and suddenly de-
camped.

RUN II THEMSELVES.
The Water Works Committee Will
look After Things.

The water works committee met again
yesterday afternoon and listened to the
report of Andrew BergstrOm, the newly
elected supervisor, who has been unable
as yet to take his seat. Mr.. Bergstrom
reported that he had placed his case in
the hands of Brooks Il Hendrix, attor-
neys, and they would begin proceedings
against Mcconnell at once and take
such steps as would land him (Berg-
strom) IN his right position. The conI-
mittee finds itself compelled to wait
until the attorneys can come To some
understanding, but they do not propose
to allow the water works to be run by
Mcconnell in the meantime. 1t was
decided to look after the business them
selves. anu from now until the supreme
count hands down some kind of de-
ciSiOn in the quo warrant0 proceedings,
some one of the committeeman VIII take
hand in the affairs of the water de-
partment.
1t was decided to make visits TO all
the pumping stations. Last night the
committee visited the North side sta
ton. The whole affair SmackS OF the
ridiculous now, for it has Just been
shown that Aid. Woodward and Flan-
derS, who are members of the new COM
mittee, are delinQuentS upon the books
of the department. Woodward owes
the city S12 for water tax, aud Flanders
is indebted to the amount of S49.54. The
latter has been notified repeatedly that
his tax was due, but he paid no atteE-
ton to 1t. Now he is an active member
of the council committee on water
works,

day. and then steps will be taken
in regard To the best course
of settlement and the future of
the business. Ny father knew nothing
of the trouble until this morning, when
| told INN. The condition of the firms
affairs will be considered with great
care, and the best will be done for the
creditors. The Fisk and CrOcker estates
arc liable, aad that inSureS the payment
of all Indebtedness in full, with plenty
of resources to spare. The CrOcker es-
tate consists chiefly of central real es-
tate not very well improved, and the
Fisk estate owns good deal of central
real estate well improved.
1--WE have had stocks of wheat, as we
have had stocks of -four, and at times
have carried a milling supply of wheat.
Mr.. Campbell has been the manager of
the business ever since he bought an IN
tereSt in the business, which was in
1887"
l.. w. Campbell. the managing part
ner OF the firm, made this statement Tor
publication:
Il am authorized to say that the firm
will resume operations next Monday,
and that IN all probability no assign
ment will be necessary. 1t is possible
that under the circumstances. and on
account of the publicity given the tenn
pOrary embarrassment OF the hrm,
a trustee may be appointed. The hrm
property is all clear"
No one believes now that the tlrm VIII
be forced to make an assignment. Inc
Liabilities of the firm are estimated 10
be about S500,000 while the assets are
figured at, in round numbers. Sl,0OO,UOO.
Who holds the paper OF the flrn cannon
be tod. The note for 5000 that went
TO protest through the -Four City bank
was left with that bank for collection.
Other notes aggregating $4,000 went TO
protest through the First National bank.
Yesterday stories were afloat to the
effect that the embarrassment of the
firm was due to speculation i'll wheat.
Mr.. Croker was asked about IL, ana dld
not specifically deny it. He intimated
that more than one Minneapolis man
was caught in the Chicago market re
Gently OH spreads" The gold scare
made it difficult to get money i'll the.
East, and wheat went away down in
Chicago Immediately afterward. This
is the explanation of one gentleman
who keeps well posted on the business
affairs of the city. Nothing definite
can be foretold of the future of the
firm until l.. w. Campbell is able to
give the matter his personal attention.
He is too i'll now to do anything.
Last night 1t was given as the opinion
of well-posted grain and flour mill men
that Croker, Fisk q Co. would not as
sign, but would be found doing business
at the old stand next Monday. Another
story was floating around i'll connection
with the firms suspension. 1t was SAID
that reorganization of the firm would be
the result. 1t will not go out of bust
ness, but one partner will probably drop
out.

WATsON'S SECOND MOVE.
He Has Secured an Injunction
Against the Fletcher Bros. and

He Has Secured an Injunction
Against the Fletcher Bros. and
Others.
The case of William L.Watson against
the Green Mountain Stock Ranching
company, Fletcher Bros. and others,
which created quite stir at the time 1t
was filed, has taken new and rather
unexpected turn in the issuing OF an
order to show cause why an injunction
should not issue preventing the Fletch-
ers from making any move In relation
to the affairs of the concern, and also
ordering a stay IN the matter OF the
Montana Judgment secured by Fletcher
against the company. The order was
signed by Judge Hicks.
The atfidayitS accompanying the order
make some strong accusations. They
say that a call has been iSSuen for
meeting of the stockholders, for the
purpose of confirming the action taken
in February, when a large amount of
the property of the corporation was
transferred to the Fietchers. 1t is also
claimed that the president of the com
pany is making appeals TO stockholders
to send him their proxies, that ii. h.
Fletcher has stated that he would take
VI lllc lulGItOlo VI IIiO
stockholders, affiant believing that, by
remunerating them from the property
received from the association, Fletcher
proposes to silence them. 1t is also said
that at the February meeting, when the
property was voted to Fletcher, the di-
rectorS we'll knew that there were six
stockholders. representing $4,000 shares
stock, protested against it.
1t is further asserted that the prop
erty in Montana, turned over 10
Fletcher for $500, was well worth S34,-
SS3. ~. and was given as such in the an
nual statement of Dec. 81. Part of the
same property was sold to the company
by Fletcher in 1883 for $1,000. Other
property sold to Fletcher for $4,000 is
said to be worth 81 933.6S. A lot of per-
sOnal property, including stock on
ranges, turned over to Fletcher for
s., 900, they swear is worth $4,000, and
that bills receivable, given to him for
$4,000 were worth $4,000 net. An
other portion OF the property secured
by Fletcher on execution for $1,000 is
SAID to be worth S24, 1923. The case
will be heard next Friday.
The Fletchers, of course, deny these
assertions and allegations most en-
phatically. They say they will be able
to dsprOve every allegation Watson
advances.

DAVID III. HEATING.

Miss V. ID. SanbOrn, who resides at
Bilerica, Mass, says:
Il tried all our doctors to no purpose.
My kidneys. liver and stomach were
terrible. | was full of pains and all run
down, weak and tired. never saw such
wonderful effect as DR.. Grtene's Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy had. 1t
has completely cured me, and | know
several other ladies who were cured in
this town with DIR. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy"
In fact, all agree that DR.. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy is the
very best spring medicine one can pos
sibly take. 1t is the great restorative
of blood and nerve and regulator of the
organs. Doctors and druggists recon-
mend it. 1t is purely vegetable and
harmless. and all druggists keep it for
81. 1t is the discovery of DR.. Greene. of
50 w. 14th Street. New York. the sue
cessful specialist is curing all forms of
nervous and chronic diseases, who can
be consulted free in regard to any case,
personally or by letter.
HIS great remedy should be used by
all this spring.

THRILLING NOTES.
Tells You Just What You
Want to Know.
And Tells II to You Also at Just tn
Right Tine.
By Following Little Advice Now You
May Escape Much Trouble.

This is the time of year when ones
blood is in poor condition; when
the nerves are weak, and when the
liver. kidneys and bowels are torpid.
One is not necessarily sick, but In the
spring of the year we are always more
or less run down, and the blood needs
inylgorating. the nerves strengthening,
and the organs require something to
start up healthy and natural action.
The timely words of the we'll known
Mr.. David ii. Heating. of 1919 Pennsyl-
vania Ave-, Baltimore. Nd, should be
needed:
Il was bad sufferer from dyspepsia
and indigestion, my blood was poor and
my nerves very weak, which affected
my heart.
Il was in bad way with these COM
plants, and no one ever suffered more
than | did. / tried most everything,
but nothing did me good until | took
DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy. 1t is certainly fine medicine
and perfectly cured me-"

Croker, Fisk & Co.'S SuSpen-
Sion--Jefferson's Birthday
Celebration.

There will be weeping and gnashlng
OF teeth in the camps of the righteous
today, and the Moses of the city Repub-
lican party will wiring his hands for
very anguish. The new administration
will, in fact, be rent from stem to stern
when it becomes known that the dread
crusaders" are at work again. 1t was
thought that after Mayor EuStis was
elected there would be no more crusad-
ing, for the "crusaderS' were all
hlrelingS of his party and the people
who were DESTROYS of downing the DEM
Ocratic administration. Bat it appears
that the crusaders" are conscientious
men who do not care for party so long
as there is work TO be done for the bet
I -rment of the city'S morals. YeSter-
day the crusaders" put in their APP
pearance in the municipal court and
SWOre out five warrants for the arrest of
saloonkeepers for violating the city ordi-
nance and the state law by selling
liquor on the Sabbath day. the names
of the SalOOnkeepers could not be
learned, but the complainant in each
case Is George a. Bond.
Mr.. Bond is evidently new acquisi-
ton to the ranks of the Knights OF the
Red Cross. for until he made his appear
ance at the clerks desk, no one of the
city officials had seen him. The war
rants were turned over to the court Off
GERS and today the cases will be called
in the police court.
1t Is said that the CRUSADERS have
been at work ever since Evangelist
Mills arrived in the city. and their work
is but part of the revlvai programme.
There can be no doubt that the Mills
revival has had something to do with
the matter at any rate. How much, re-
mains to be seen. Mr.. Bond was not to
be found last night, so the extent of the
crusaders operations could not be
ascertained. 1t is understood, however,
that every saloon of prominence in the
city, the swell EOtelS and the concert
saloons are on the list and will he pros
ecuted as fast as the court can handle
them.
1t was said at police headquarters that
the ministers and the temperance peO-
pie of the city are behind the "cruSad-
erS" in the fight, and will see them
through. No money Will be lacking TO
prosecute the cases. Whether this
latest crusade" movement is under the
auspices of the Law Enforcement league
is question. Several days ago the
GLOBE referred to the SomnOlence OF
the Law Enforcement league under the
influence of Republican administration
Opiates, for it is well known that the
saloon policy of the present administra-
ton has been more wide open" than
that Otits immediate predecessors. W. X.
Sudduth, head OF the league, immedi-
ately assured a Republican paper that
1.-THE present course of Mayor Eustis
leaves the league nothing to do" Mr..
Bond has, apparently, found something
= 4
ing, and has taken 1t upon himself to
do it.
