TO SECURE COLLATERAL.

The Bank ofZumbrota Begins A c.
ton Against the Guaranty Loan.
For some time past preparations have
been made by some of the people hold
ing notes secured by the Northwestern
Guaranty Loan company, to secure the
collateral from the receiver, and the
first action WAS commenced yesterday
morning by the Bank of Zumbrota,
through a petition asking the court 10
order the receiver to come into court
and show cause why certain securities
should not be turned over to the ban E.
The order was signed by Judge Pond,
and the case will be heard Aug II.
The petitioner claims that it holds
thirty-seYen notes guaranteed by the
company, for which securities in the
shape of unrecorded qultclaim deeds
anu mortgages were deposited in the
vaults. Tie total amount of the notes
held by the bank foOts up $U3, ,624 IS, and
upon some of the notes appears the
name OF j c. Plant. The bank claims
that IN most of the cases the makers of
the notes were of that quality termed as
Straw, ana that LOUIS Menage used
them for the purpose of raising money
by the guaranty of the company for
himself. The claim is that the waiting
for settlement by the receiver would
be tedious affair, as the bank wants
the money, and the law Will be tried TO
see If 1t Is not entitled TO the securities
to sell at once.

He Does q Heavy Thinking Part
While Seated on Properties.
The spectacle of the stage manager of
the Calhoun Opera company making
time down Nicollet avenue about S:45
last evening, with neither coat nor
vest, attracted the mild interest Of the
few pedestrians camped on the trail of
the sprinter at the time. The gentle
man was seen to dive into the build
ing where swings the Smith Costume
company; sign and shortly emerge with
an armful Of brilliant clothing. Just
outside of the door, however, another
member OF the company met him and
bore the clothing back into the doorway,
While the stage manager made good
time back to the opera house. The
cause OF these rapid movements was as
follows: About S:20, while the members
OF the company were gathering on the
stage ready 10 secure their costumes
and dress for the first act, short and
rather heavy weighted man glided un-
noticed through the stage door and
made a bee line for the large chest con-
tanning the costumes of the company.
Gently humming We've all beer there
many time, mauy a time" he
carefully pulled aside his coat tails aud
deposited 213 pounds of jovlal humanity
on the aforesaid chest. The members
gathered about and stared in amaze
ment. Then the leading lady ap-
preached and gently asked him to move
on SO that she might get her costume,
which was in the trunk. Other menl-
berS also wished their apparel. but the
figure always sitting, never fitting"

ton upon the various charming ladies

asked that the gentleman move from
the chest. but he moved not. lie
was Sheriff j. r. Lally, and he
was attaching the properties for claim
of salary brought by Mrs. Nelly Hart
ley, who alleges that she was engaged
to play with the company during the
present week for the promised sum of
S32. Manager Hunter, of the company,
appeared, and explained that the sheriff
could not hold the cOStumeS-that they
were the property of the Smith Cos
tune company. The sheriff replied that
after they had proven that fact to him
lie yet had three days grace in the mat
ter. At this stage the stage manager
went for more costumes, but was met
by the messenger, who declared the
cruel war over. The sheriff, at the con-
cluSIOn OF satisfactory Interview with
the manager, thrust the S32 into his in
side pocket, and casting another admir-
ing glance about the group of foOt-light
beauties, gaily tripped out into the
open air. The audience, which had
been watching the fantastic shadows
dancing Wierdly here and there for
three-quarters Of an hour engaged in
good deal Of wondering the while. but the
curtain between hid play as interest
ing as the one immediately following
the passing of Sheriff Lally. Manager
Hunter says that the goods were at
tached only on promise of work to
Mrs. Hartley. The company changed
their plans, and did not put on the plays
i'll which she was to have appeared.

tination was the>rcOurt house, whence

he had seen nothing, but had arrested

Mr.. and Mrs. Dunn could make out no
worse case than that he had called at
the house to ask for the girl, had been
refused and had vowed to have her.
When ordered out of the house he went,
but hung around outside and beckoned
TO Lizzie. The case was dismissed in

Lizzie is twenty years old. Her
parents claim to have the right to con-
troll her, as she is liable to insane fits.
She says she wants to marry Thompson
and does not care a fig for her parents
objections.

to a. dance at the lower end of Lake
George met with a terrible calamity.

was conveying twenty-nine people UP

turned toward the One; Hundred
Island house and was gliding to-
ward the landing when the passeu-
gers were thrown forward by a sudden
shock. In the dark the vessel had run
upon Sunken pier, and before assist
ance arrived from the shoe it sank
with all on board. 1t was only few
minutes after the shock when the yacht
careened TO one side and went down i'll
eighteen feet of water. The Shrieking,
struggling passengers battled for life
III the darkness. Women threw up
their arms ana sank beneath tile sur
face, and when brought ashore life had
fled. Deeds of heroiSm weIe performed
by the men.
When all in sight had reached the
shore, it was learned that eight or mne
peISollS' dll women, except youth OF
nineteen. had sunk to watery graves
As soon as possible an attempt to
recover the bodies was made. After

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 4.-Indian
Inspector FaiSOn arrived in the city to-
day from the Ch0ctaw country, whittier
he was sent some time ago under in
rtructionS from the president and See
retary Smith to prevent. il possible,
further hostile demOnsUatinoS among
the Chocta factions. Mr.. FaisOn re-
ported that it seemed to be the general
opinion among the adherents OF the
Jones faction, at least, that the nine
ChoctaWs under sentence of death were
guilty of cOil-blOOded murder. and
should pay the penalty of their crimes.
Inere was not, however, any cOnSidera-
bic number who would not aCquieSce in
whatever action the governor or the
Judge Of ChoctaW court might see fit to
take. There would be danger, never
theless, Mr.. FaisOn thought, that the
relatives Of the murdered man would

were liberated. and this would probably

years and might result III much blood

Jones and Judge IIalson, of the ChOc-
taw court, perfectly willing to accede to
the wishes of the government in all
things reasonable, and while insisting
that these condemned men should be
executed, Mr.. Faison did not think that
either OF them would interpOse any
serious objections to their pardon. 1t
was Mr.. FaisOn's opinion that none of
the prisoners would be executed. Ut.
