DR.. HAYES SELLS OUT.

A rumOr was current on the street
this morning that DR.. E. L. Halves
had made an assignment to J. e.
Brown at Mapleton. In reply to a
telegram Of inquiry we learn that this
is not the fact. DR.. Halves has not
failed but has sold the mill to the
Mapleton bank. The bank will pay
all liabilities and the mill continues
in operation. DR.. Halves many
friends will be glad to know that the
report is without foundation. He
has not been engaged in the milling
business more then two years, and
removed to Mapleton last summer.
The mill has done good business, but
the scarcity of cars lately is said to
have crippled it somewhat. We hope
that Dr. Halves will conclude to re-
turn to Mankato.

ELECTRICAL CHANGES.

The electric road which is being
built between Chicago and ST. Louis
is the foundation for considerable
speculation as to the part electricity
will play in our civilization in the
future. 1t has been observed by those
who have kepta close watch upon the
progress which has been made in the
electrical world, that from so to 100
per cent greater speed Will be realized
100 years hence or even at shorter
period, by the use Of electricity as a
propelliDg power, and with the same
safety that is now possible with steam.
We look upon this as fast age, but it
is slow beside what the future will
note. Thos. A. Edison, the great
electrical genius, has been quoted as
saying that electricity is terrestrial
magnetism, and that the universe is
full of it. And he believes that it
may be pumped out of the earth, the
sea or the air, just as water is pump
ed out of stream. The one thing
needful to do this is to find the form
of pump that will do the trick. This
pump Edison is said to be looking for,
and is making experiments tending
in that direction, and when we look
upon his past career, it would not be
at all surprising should he discover a
form of pump by which this feat could
be accomplished.
1t is claimed that should he be sue
cessful in transforming his belief into
an actual fact, it will make the cost
of electricity so low as to make it the
universal power. And this would
simply mean another revolution in
the civilization of the world, for it
would displace steam everywhere, and
not only be the propelling power along
the paths of commerce and in the fac
tories, but would enter the house
hold as we'll, and who can say but
what it would attach itself to our
wagons and carriages and the take
place of the faithful horse.
If this theory of Edison proves to be
correct, says the Duluth Herald, and
the electrical experts are not mistak-
en- in their plans for rapid travel, the
next .thundred years will develop
changes more stupendous than have
been shown by the last hundred, in
which pretty nearly every useful
thing there is in the world has been
invented In fact, 1T is the opinion of
many prominent men who have STU
died this question that we are on the
eve of an industrial revolution as a
result of electrical research and eX-
pertinent.
Truly he who says the top round in
the ladder of progress, as relates TO
the great changes in the lines of in
vention, has been reached, is blind
TO all that is transpiriDgin our midst.

AN ART STUDIO.

Mrs. Judge Porter has leased the
suite of rooms over the Hanford Pro-
duce Co.'S office, corner of Front and
Liberty streets, and has transformed
them into an art studio. The rooms
have been hansOmely furnished and
the walls hung with paintings
from Mrs. Porter's brush. These
paintings are eXquisitely done and
would form an attractive portion of
any art exhibit. They show conclu-
sively the high talent and cultivated
taste of the artist.
Mrs. Porter is forming a class in
painting and art work, and is already
meeting with very flattering success.
She has been planning for the past
two years to open the studio, and her
friends are delighted with the coy
rooms where it is located.

THE PUBLIC BUILDING. 3

John G.. Noe yesterday received a
letter from Senator Barr enclosing the
following letter from Senator Wash
burn, dated March 18th:
Il called upon Supervising Archi-
tect EdbroOke yesterday to ascertain
if something could not be done to i'm
prove the architecture of the public
building at Mankato. Mr.. Elbrooke
has been absent from his Office for
several weeks and has just returned.
During his absence | was able to get
but little satisfaction from the acting
supervising architect, Col. Law, but
my conversation yesterday with Mr..
ElbrOOke was of very satisfactory
character, as he indicated his willing
ness to have prepared new eleva-
ton of the building, and one that
will be more 10 keeping with the sur
roundings of its location. He scanted
the idea that it would cost $4,000 to
add tower 10 the present buildin g.
In any event he has promised to take
the matter up and see what improve
mentS he can make and advise me.
AS soon as | hear from him | will
write you further on the subject"
1t is certainly to be hoped that a
clock tower can be added, and it seems
reasonable to believe that it can be
and within the limits of the appropri-
alton, when the cheapness of mater
ials in Mankato is considered. How
ever, it is hoped that no delay will be
caused in advertising for bids for the
SuperStructure.

AN UNFORTUNATE FALL.

About seven O'Clock last evening as
James Shoemaker was about to enter
the city hall he slipped on the ICY
boards laid in front of the step to
permit the wheelbarrow to go into
the door. He fell upon his left side,
bruising his head upon the stone step,
and breaking one bone in his left
wrist. He was picked up and carried
into the hall, and DR.. Harrington
was summoned. Later he was taken
to his home. The fracture occurred
at the point where the wrist was once
before broken. Mr.. Shoemaker is
feeling comfortable today.

WILL DECLINE TO SEAT THEM.

Washington reports state that the
senators appointed from the north
western states in which the leglsla-
ture failed to elect senators. will not
be seated. The matter Of seating
them will come up for thorough dis
cussion, and will receive most careful
consideration. The shutting out Of
the three appointees will not change
the political complexion Of the senate.
so that the question of partizanshlp
will not enter into the matter. 1t is
claimed that the law and precedent
is strongly in favor of shutting out
the newly appointed senators,
although the spirit and letter of the
constitution calls for two senators
from eacn state. 1t is said to be the
intention of senators of both parties
to lay down the law plainly, and so es-
tablish a precedent which will be a
guide for the future. The governor
of Wyoming will undoubtedly call an
extra session of the legislature of
that state for the purpose OF electlng
a senator. and the general impression
is that it will succeed in making a
choice if given another chance. In
Montana and Washington it is not be-
LEVIED the legislatures would succeed
in electing a senator if they were
again called together, as the same in
fluences which prevented elections at
the regular sessions would again as
sert themselves. While the shutting
out Of senators from these states
might work a hardship to them, it
would no doubt be approved by the
people in general, and would serve as
a lesson to those factions which pre-
fer their own to the public welfare.
Perhaps the refusal of seats to these
senators would be good thing in
that it may serve to bring about more
quickly a reform in the manner of Sc
lecting senators, and cause the matter
to be referred directly to the people,
rather than delegated to the legisla-
lures of the various states.
