VICTORY FOR PFAU & YOUNG.
Supreme Court Case of Mahoney De.
cided i'm their Favor.

Attorney Young on Saturday re.
ceived notice that the supreme court
case of Mahoney VS.. Mahoney in which
he and Mr.. Pau were interested had
been decided in their favor.
1t seems that Mrs. Mahoney's ap-
plication for divorce in the lower
court had been received and $500 ali
mony granted, which amount was
made a specific lien on an S0-acre
farm. Mrs. Mahoney had the land
sold and bid it in. The time for re-
demption expired. Mr.. Mahoney
claimed exemption on the homestead.
Messrs. Young & Pau held that the
homestead exemptions did not apply
in a suit in which husband and wife
were concerned, and the point was
sustained by the supreme court, es.
tablishing a precedent in Minnesota
courts.

JUDGE SHlSSLER HAPPY.
His Uncle Was Elected Circuit Judge
In Ohio.

Judge Shissler is the happiest man
in town today. This morning he re-
ceived a letter from his uncle, j. L.
Price, stating that he had been elect
ed one of the circuit judges in Ohio
by 5000 votes, overcoming Demo
cratic majority of $1,000.
In that state the court of common
pleas is the lower court, and the dis
trict court has jurisdiction before the
supreme court. The three judges of
the district court sit together, and
much important business comes be-
fore it, and it's decisions are usually
final.
Judge Shissler studied law with Mr.
Price and he says he is more pleased
at the news than if he had been him
self elected to the position.

IN MUNICIPAL COURT.
Sylvie Huntley and Ed. Cas-
we'll Charged With a Bad
Piece of Business.

Armed, as he says, with a COM
plant, Patrolman Grout went at an
early hour Saturday evening to Tink-
comville hill and arrested Mrs. Sylvie
Huntley and Ed. Caswell, who were in
room together, and who, it was
alleged, occupied the same bed at the
time of their arrest.
Sylvie was philosophically reading
a newspaper in her cell Sunday, and
did not seem a bit worried over her
incarceration. "No, we had not re-
tired" she said. 81 was making up
nv own bed for the night while Ed.
was in the room, but | had another
place for him to Sleep"
Sylvie said she is married woman,
but that her husband ran away and
she was obliged to take rooms in a
house with two other families and do
washing for a living. Her parents
live in the city, she said, but they are
too poor to support her and she is
compelled to take care of herself.
"This is the first time | was ever
arrested" she said, ''and it will be
the last if I've got anything to say
about it. 1t is pretty hard to sit be-
hind the bars and have everybody
come in and stare at you. I'd rather
be in Jail on the hill"
ga good many people think it looks
bad for young woman to be enter
tanning company alone at night, " was
suggested.
~ don't care. I'll admit Ed. was in
the room, and | will have him there
again, too, as soon as | get the
chance"
Sylyie pleaded guilty and was given
the alternative of going to jail or to
the House of the Good Shepherd at
St. Paul. She chose the latter after
much persuasion, and it is hoped that
this 17-year-old unfortunate will be
better off away from the low-lived
carrion who have caused her down.
fall.
The charge of disorderly conduct
was lodged against Caswell, and after
posting him in a severe lecture upon
his narrow escape from the peniten-
tiary Judge Shissler fined him $40
and costs. Caswell had no money and
will reduce his flesh on bread and
water diet in Will Glynn's
apartments on the hill.
Anna Long Monday swore out
a warrant against her husband for as
sault in the third degree.

WILL QUIT CARRYING MONEY.
What Agent SIade, of the estates,
Has to Say.

Referring to recent train robbery
in the south, and the large amount OF
money that was stolen from the eX,
press messenger. which, of course, the
company must stand, agent Slade, OF
the United States Express company
said that the upshot of this whole
business is going to be, and that very
soon, that the express companies are
going to refuse to carry money. They
have probably lost more during the
past year through the holding up OF
trains than the compensation would
amount to, and the money traffic will
in a short time be entirely eliminated
from the list of express packages car
ried.

A DANGEROUS MAN.
The HighWayman Who
Is Indicted,
fiis Name is Dan O'Bien, and He is
Wanted in St. Paul for a Dozen
Crimes==Heid Up Eleven Men in
Saloon.

When the Mankato police arrested
the man Wednesday evening who held
up Patrolman Schutte's son and var
ious others, they captured without
their knowledge a man who is badly
wanted in ST. Paul, Minneapolis and
several northwestern cities.
One of the detectives who accom-
panies the party in the city on the
Saulpaugh case, this afternoon stated
that O'Brien, with his partner,
in ST. Paul saloon four years ago,
held up eleven men and came out Of
the melee without scratch.
He is wanted in St. Paul on several
charges, the particulars of which
could not be furnished this afterno on
but which will all come out in the
evidence to be furnished against him
at his trial tomorrow.
Three or four of the detectives, learn
ing the particulars of the hold-ups
and that it was proposed to bring suit
againt Patrolman Schuttie for club
bling the man, had a curiosity to see
him. The detectives sat in front as
O'Brien alias Willard was brought in
by the sheriff, and when he saw them
he threw up both hands and gave an
involuntary start, establishing the
fact, beyond doubt, that he
had seen their faces before
O'Brien is wanted so badly, the de-
tectiye states, that the officers in
structions from their superiors were
that if they ever ran across him and
he attempted to rnn to shoot him on
sight.
Policeman Schultz, he says, is to
be censured for but one thing, and
that is that he didn't club him hard
enough.

A "Trust" Which Is Popular.

There is a great deal Of Indignation
felt against trusts. The sugar trust,
the Standard oil trust, the Welsh tin
plate trust, the English salt trust,
and other combinations of the kind,
are vigorously denounced, and it is a
subject of controversy whether there
are more trusts in England than
America, and whether protection or
free trade fosters them. But there is
one form of trust against which no
one has anything to say. That is the
trust the public reposes in Hoods
SarSaDarilla.

AS TO CHOLERA.
An Old Stockman Tells Why Hogs
Get 1t.

Tim Carrabine, vice-president OF
the Standard Live Stock Company,
of Chicago, and one of the oldest
stockmen in the west, was in the city
Saturday.
Referring to the ravages Of hog
cholera in Minnesota he says that
much of this is due to the fact that
other hogs have been brought into the
state. "When you take hog from
his native PASTURE" said Mr.. Cara
bine, ''you take the means whereby
he lives and it will render him liable
to sickness. A hog, to be healthy and
fat should be left to his own devices
and not moved around the country
from one ranch to another 1t does
not pay in the long run"

THE +" RED MEN,"
Scheme ON Foot to Organize Lodge
Here.

J. j. Zent, travelling man who
makes his headquarters in Mankato,
and for years prime mover in Red
Mems work, is considering the plan
OF organizing lodge in this city. 1t
is believed that the small cost of join
ing the society would induce a suffi-
Gent number to sign the charter to
make it an object to organize a local
branch, and if the arrangement is
made at all, and the prospects are
that it will be, the lodge will be in
running order within few weeks.
