Only a Financial Discussion.

The stranger with long hair had
Just eaten a great breakfast in a
Clark street restaurant, says the Chi
cago Tribune and was making for
the door without settling when the
cashier called to him:
''Here, sir. The money!"
The stranger advanced to the desk
with a pleasant smile and said:
"Money? It's the engrossing topic
Of the hour, and Pm not surprised
that you evince keen interest in it.
| trust, sir, you will agree with me
when | say that the recent repeal of
the silver purchasing law will not
greatly relieve the business world;
the remedy must be more
90, stow your tongue and out with
your wealth."
81 agree with you; the point is
well taken; wealth is great blessing
at all times, but Legislation cannot
increase or diminish the volume of
currency; the first thing necessary is
to strengthen the public confidence
by assurances
"Now see here,-"
"Pardon me, but [ have the statis-
tics to prove all [ say. ] maintain
that the repeal of the Sherman law,
as recently accomplished by Cong
ress can only mitigate" I"
Just then something hit him in the
back and he struck the curb on the
other side OF the street. AS he gath
cred himself up and hu nted for his
hat he remarked:
"lt strikes me as mighty singu-
lar thing that some men cannot dis
cuss the financial question without
flying into passion"

In the name of 65,OOO,OOO Ameri-

ey, and in the name of $4,000 you
not only refuse our demand but pur-
pose the taking away OF one half of
what we have left. Prompted alone
by our love for the rich and poor, by
our love for the welfare and peace of
of our common country, let us warn
you that the masses of the people are
aroused. All over this fair land they
are on their knees in pra yer. Their
walls have been heard at the throne
of the Almighty. My friends, hung

respect no laws, and when these twin
devils are let loose and you force
them out upon the world,
''Then woe to the robbers who gather
In the field where they ever have sown:
Who have stolen the jewel from labor
And buided to mammon throne.
''Eor the throne of their god shall be crumbl'd
And the sceptre be swept from his hand,
And the heart of the naughty be humbled
And servant be chief in the land

THE HEAD OF BELT.
Notes of Interest Concerning Fut-
ure Great Mining Section.

uIe NIedt Mining CeCtlon.
Ed. Bowler and A. G.. White came
in Saturday from their mines on the
divide between Belt and Lost Fork,
where he has been working for the
past few months. The Pinacle group
of four claims belongs to Messrs.
Bowler & White. They have sunk
48 feet and started cross-cut with
the object of striking the main vein.
The vein is a fssure accompanied
by an oxide Of iron Gaping, which
carries gold in greater or less quaint
tiles, assays having shown as high as
$50 and as low as SO to the ton. The
shaft was sunk in country rock be-
cause it could thus be worked with
less than half the cost of sinking on
the iron, while the owners expect to
reach the vein within a distance of
Is feet. The famous Iron Crown,
formerly owned by Gust Damn, now
deceased, constitutes one of the Pin
acle group.
Clifford & Maynard have been
working in that country for the past
four years, in which time they have
left their mark of indusry upon the
rugged face of the eternal rocks.
Their claim, the Margo, is nearly 200
feet in length, and contains fine ore
in streak 4 to IA inches wide
They are now working another
claim where the vein matter carries
loose gold, and from which they can
pan numerous colors. One hundred
feet or so from the mouth of the tun-
mel they came to a chimney or blow
out in the mountain, containing a
prodigious mass of loose stones,
which the men are endeavoring to
work around.
A COUNTY ROAD.
Numerous and repeated efforts
have been made to secure county
road for this district, but the project
is not today any nearer completion
than when it first began. At one
time viewers were appointed to ex-
anime this route but we are not a.
ware that they ever reported or even
acted upon it. Estimates have been
furnished by reliable contractors who
offer to build this road to the sum
nit for ST. 300. The people of GA
len, it is said, have agreed to build
two miles of it free of cost. 1t is al
so stated that certain enterprising
men of this camp have promised by
private funds to build half the bridg-
es. 1t is without doubt the most
urgent project found in this locality,
under the head Of public improve
ment, in it's relation to Neihart, to
the Summit and Wolf creek mining
districts, and to the whole Judith ba-
sin.

JEWELRY FOUND.

Wednesday young man named
Mr.. Brooks, who lives north of the
city, found a package of jewelry in
one of the stone quarries north of the
city, and turned it over to the police.
1t was identified as that which was
stolen from j. B. & d. Richards
store, and is in possession of the police
department. The owners are not sure
that all of the jewelry has been
found, but that which has been re-
covered does not present very much
value.
Richards Bros. thought that by sup
pressing the publication of the find,
they might have better opportunity
of tracking the thief. Upon their
statement that the Reuieao publishers
had promised to make no mention of
the affair, the FREE PRESS gave a
similar promise. With their usual
high conception of honor, the RevieaU
publishers printed the report of the
find in last evenings issue. The
FREE PRESS has been 'scOOped" by
our enterprising contemporary in the
same way several times before, and it
now and hereby serves notice on the
public that it will enter into no agree
ment in the future to suppress any
news item. 1t will be useless for any
one to ask it; saying that herpub-
fishers have promised to suppress it, as
our experience has proved the unreli-
ability of such promises. Such de-
velopments in the news line as may
occur from time to time will be given
to the public, without favor to any
one.

DISTRICT COURT.
MONDAY.

III
The trial of the $4,000 damage suit
of Joseph Baumgartner VS.. the Man.
kato Street Railway Co., took up the
day in the District court. Baumgart-
ner, Mike Fallenstein, Martin Nc
Gayle, Dennis Fooly and VIM. Buck
holtz were examined on behalf of the
plaintiff. The case will take up a
portion of tomorrow.
This case will be followed by the
Conway case, and the drawing Of a
jury may begin tomorrow. 1t is
thought that several days will be
taken up in this work. 1t will be diff
fcult to secure men who have not
heard of this case in the news
papers.
Mr.. Empey, one of the states main
witnesses, has returned to the city in
company with Sheriff Glynn, who
went to Lincoln, Neb., after him.
Empey has been in the city more or
less, but suddenly disappeared about
ten days ago, and could not be found.
Finally he was heard of at Lincoln
and-the sheriff was sent to secure his
presence. The attorneys for the de-
PENDANT deny all lnsinuations that
they or their clients knew anything
about the disappearance of the states
important witness.

About 1915 o'clock Sunday after
noon an alarm brought the fire depart
ment and hundreds of citizens to the
j. r. Jones residence, on state street,
A small fire on the roof was quickly
eXtinguished by stream of water,
with some difficulty. 1t is supposed
that the fire started from a spark
from the chimney, and was first MOTTO
ed by neighbors. The chimney was
not burning out which makes the oc-
curence an unusual one. The dam
age by fire was trifing amounting
only to a small hole in the roof, but
the water injured the paper and
plastering in several of the rooms.
The building was insured. B. d.
Smith, who occupies the house with
his family, estimates the loss at $400
to $500 all told, including the damage
to his furniture and belongings.
Mrs. j. j. Shaubut, writing from
Garden Grove, Calf, to renew a sub
scription, says: "The home paper is
always welcomed, link between the
old home and the new. We find Min
nesotians here, as well as at National
City. All like the climate, but times
are as hard here as they are said to
be there"

City Attorney Young is deserving
of congratulations on his success in
defending the city in the suit brought
by John q. Burke. On the first trial
the jury disagreed, eight being favor
able to the plaintiff. When the jury
retired after the recent trial only one
ballot was necessary. Mr.. Young
handled the case in a mastery way
and demonstrated that he is one of
the best city attorneys the city ever
had.

WANTS DAMAGES.
Mrs. Alice Slime Sues G. II. Saul
paugh for $50, 900 for Alleged
Breach of Promise.
Mr.. Saulpaugh Will Fight the
Case-He Denies the Charges
and Says 1t Is an Attempt
at BiaCkmail.

The Minneapolis papers contain &C
counts of suit brought against Clar-
ence H. Saulpaugh, of this city, by
Mrs. Alice Slime, for $4,000 for alleged
breach Of promise. The suit
was commenced about month
ago, but has not been placed
on file in this county as yet. The
case is somewhat sensational and
is said to be likely to involve the
names of number of well-known
Minneapolis gentlemen as witnesses.
The Minneapolis Times gives little
account of Mrs. Slime, who, it says,
was few years ago ''known as Alice
Booth, and, if not notorious woman
of the town, at least had a reputation
which made her identity familiar to
the police and fast young men of the
city. She once created a sensation by
chasing a well-knOwn business man,
who kept her as his mistress, on the
street one night when she was attired
in a robe de mutt. The woman pos
sesseS a rather stately figure, and
dressed stylishly if not stunningly."
Mrs. Slime was houSekeeper at The
Saulpaugh for year or two, and is
remembered as rather fine looking
woman by those who saw her. She
conducted herself properly while in
this city, and performed her duties in
oaS
that she made formal demand for
settlement some time ago, through
Chicago attorney, which was not COM
piled with.
The action for breach of contract is
understood to be based upon
letters from the defendant, of
which there are said to have been
large number.
Mr.. Saulpaugh stated to a FREE
PRESS reporter this afternoon that the
case was one of attempted blackmail
He denied that there was any con-
tract Of marriage, or that there was
any breach Of contract. He intends
to fight the case, and in this he is fol-
lowing the wishes of his wife as well
as his own inclinatiOns and the adj
vice of attorneys. If the case comes
to trial, as it probably will, it is I'M
stood that the defense will endeavor'
to prove that the plaintiff was a
notorious woman, with reputation
such as to preclude the idea that she
could have suffered any damages by
any alleged breach of contract.
B. d. Smith is Mr.. Saulpaugh's at
torney.
The summons and complaint was
served very quietly about month ago,
and the answer has been put in. The
complaint was prepared by Chicago
attorney, where it is believed the
plaintiff now is, and was prepared in
accordance with the common law.
Only the straight allegation of breach
of contract was made, and the defend
ant makes simply general denial Of
the facts alleged.
The suit has caused considerable
talk on the streets, being received
with surprise on all hands. The
sympathy is very generally with Mr..
Saulpaugh.

DREW A REVOLVER.

John Page consulted Pau & Young
Monday about getting out warrant
for the arrest of VIM. Fuller, but as the
latter could not be found no
warrant was issued. Mr.. Page states
that as he and his wife were driving
in North Mankato yesterday, Fuller,
who was ahead or him, turned out
and allowed him to come up abreast.
Fuller then drew a revover and aimed
it at Mr.. Page, and bystanders say he
snapped it and then tried to put in
another cartridge. Mr.. Page, who had
tried in vain to reason with Fuller,
drove on. Mrs. Page was divorced
from Fuller year ago, and it is said
that he has been jealous ever since,
and made threats. There were a
number of witnesses to the occurrence
Yesterday.

rain than it has had during the past
two weeks. In ST. Paul there have
been more than twenty separate rain
storms since May 1st, and various
cities north, west and east of us have
suffered severely from heavy and pro-

has become as much too cold as it
was too hot the weather may become

: A oNE-euN REPUBLIC.
When 1t Was Secured They Could Not
Safely Fire 1t,


The rulers of the miniature republic
of Andorra decided recently that the
country should possess a cannon.
Krupp, therefore, was ordered to man
ufacture one of the most modern type.
The great gun arrived at its mountain
destination short time ago, and was
placed on the highest point in the
Country" so that the citizens could
see that the valley was well protected.
A day was appointed to try the can
non, which was able to send a ball
eightc en- kilometers. Just as the two
artillerymen of Andorra were ready to
fire it occurred to one of the prudent
citizens that the shot might cause some
trouble. The territory of the republic
Andorra does not extend over more
than six kilometers. To direct the
shot, therefore, toward the surround
ing mountains would be the same as
firing on France or Italy, as the ball
would necessarily fall on the territory OF
. one of these countries. A war might be
the result. 1t was then decided to shoot
the ball in the air, but some one sug'
gested that it would endanger the lives
of too many people in its descent, anc
possibly bore 4 great hole in the re
public of Andorra. Good council pre-
vailed and the two artillery men were
commanded to unload the gun. Tht
shot has not yet been fred, and the
good republicans are uncertain wha
to do with the expensive gun.

The TAME CROW.
Little Love Wasted on Him by his Wild
Brothers.

Little Love Wasted on Him by HIS Wild
Brothers.
It is a well-known fact that wild
animals and birds do not care to re-
ceive back into their society a member
that has lived a season with man as a
pet. This was illustrated in a noisy
manner out near Pleasant Ridge, ac-
cording to the story told by witness
to Cincinnati Times-Star reporter.
ssA tame crow said he, chad for sew
eral wears cawed around the farmhouse
of our neighbor, and was seated on a
fence away out on the farm cawing
when great flock of crows came along
and settled in the field. The tame one
grew frantic, cawing and scolding till
the attention of the flock was attract
ed to it. Rising en- masse the flock
circled around and alighted on the
fence about the Ntame one, which be-
came frightened and flew up. 1t was
followed by the others, which crowd
ed about it in its fight and forced it to
fly farther and farther away from the
farmhouse and over a great wood.
There they all set on it and pecked it
and clawed the poor thing till its flight
was marked with feathers falling. All
this time they kept up a terrible cav
ing and calling. They would undoubt-
edly have killed the poor bird, but it
spied man at work in the woods and
dropped down to him. He proved a
friend, and Jim Crow was soon perched
on his shoulder cawing defantly at his
relatives who had cast him from
among them, but who now flew to a
respectful distance
