ROAD ROLLER HERE.
What Will the City do With 1t, is the
Question.

Question.
The steam road roller arrived last
night over the Milwaukee road, and
was gazed at by acgood many curiosi-
ty seekers this morning. 1t bent a
fiat Car with it's ponderous weight,
and will not be removed until the
agent arrives, when one end of the
car will be blocked and steam will be
gotten up, and the "white elephant
will make it's entry into Mankato in
due form. 1t looks big enough and
heavy enough to crush a street into
position or pulverize a cross walk.
The question that is bothering the
city officials now is what to do with
it, now that the council has bought
the roller. 1t has been suggested
thatsit be kept in the tool house by the
pumping station, but there is ques-
tion whether that is large enough.
We hope that it will be run over
the streets to crush down the loose
stones that litter the surface, and
that will be one great benefit.
Engineer Haynes states that at ST.
Louis he saw horse rollers in use,
operated by four horses. That city
does it's work almost entirely with
horse rollers, and is well satisfied
with them. The horse roller costs
500, and the steam roller S3,100-
quite difference for small city in
these times.

The County Board Accepts the Cells.
A Hitch.

The county board put in busy day
yesterday, and adjourned before sup
per. The following resolution was
adopted, relative to the cells in the
new jail:
Moved and carried that the iron
work in the new jail be and hereby is
accepted, and that the Mayer Bros,
contractors for the same be paid the
sum of So, 911.10, in full of all claims
and demands, $50 of the above amount
to remain unpaid until the elevator in
the kitchen is put in proper condition
and all locks and doors to work
properly, also the catch to curtain to
be fixed.
1t appears that there is misunder-
standing as to who shall pay Supt.
Burke for his work since Jan. 1st. The
board, or at least part of it, con-
sidered that verbal agreement was
made with the contractors that the
latter were to pay Mr.. Burke, but
that the county should advance him
the money and deduct the amount
out of the contract price. He.'has
been paid in full, and now the board
has taken out the amount. The con-
tractors do not like this, and say that
they have done the work satisfactorily,
that they have not made anything on
the contract, and that it is not right
that they should be made to pay for
the superintendent. The reason
which the board wanted the con-
tractors to stand this expense was on
account of the delay in getting out
the cell work Mr.. Burke has been
drawing S. day.
A committee composed of CONS.
Mountain, Hughes and Graf was ap-
pointed to accept the Sterling bridge,
which has been constructed by Mr..
Buttimer. They will meet on the
ground June 18th.
OCom. Graf was authorized to adver-
tise for bids, to be received July 9th
at 200 p. M, for a double culvert in
Thompson's ravine, Mankato town.
ship, near the city limits; also for a
culvert in section 6, Beaufort, near
the house of VIM. Wondersee.

A NEW , BUSINESS.
rlr. N. K. Clarke Secures a Desirable
Lease.

Mr.. N. X. Clarke, the gentlemanly
clerk OF The Saulpaugh, has leased
the 'front.' half of the basement of L.
P. Hunts new building, for a term of
fvey years, and on July 1st he will start
cigar stand there, and the sale of
periodicals. Later, about September
lst, he will put in four billiard tables.
He will have Odjard & knott make
some fine fixtures as soon as possible,
and he proposes to fit up the spacious
apartment in thoroughly frst-class
style, and one that will be attractive
to the people. Tables and chairs will
be provided for those who want to
read and write, and it will be of the
nature of gentleman's reading room.
There is nothing of this nature in the
city at present, and we have no doubt
but that Mr.. Clarke's venture will be
highly successful. { Thefplace is ex-
cellently located for the purpose.
uMr. Clarke will not give.th business
his personal management, but will
continue at The ..Saulpaugh. He will
have asirst class man in charge how
ever.

FELL TEN FEET.

Yesterday, Sigend, the little boy OF
Ed. L. Hanson, who lives at 2l5 Car.
rol street, fell from roof distance
of ten feet and struck across a board
and was considerably hurt, but is
much better to-day and will come out
all right. He was sitting on the edge
of the roof with a cat in his arms, and
when it began to scratch his neck he
tried to throw it off, and in SO doing
lost his balance and fell. 1t was for
tunate that he was no worse injured.

SCHOOL BOARD.
Considerable Business at last Night S
Meeting

The monthly meeting of the school
board occurred last night. Supt. Ken
aston read his May report and the
totals for the year. The enrolment
was 1868, to 1857 in 1894, and 1850 in
1898. The attendance was never so
large.
Miss Belle Beatty was transferred
from the second to the third grade at
the Union school.
Miss. M. Ida Crawford's salary was
advanced from $50 to 800 per month,
and she was given the position of
first assistant principal of the High
school, but is to teach the same sub
jects as last year.
A. Deusen was elected janitor of the
East Mankato building, and his salary
was placed at S75 year, in case there
is one room, and 800 if there are two
rooms.
Miss Mary Coon was elected to the
first grade in the Union building, at
salary of $50 per month.
The selection of the other teachers
needed to fill vacancies was referred
to the committee of schools, to report
atan adjourned meeting to be held
Friday evening.
Architects Schipple and Pass pre-
sented plans for the proposed addition
to the Pleasant Grove building. The
board decided to have two room adj

james Marvin is back from Louisi-

alton on the east side of the Missis-
sippi River on the first highlands and
located about 80 miles from Baton
Rouge. He says the negros run the
plantation on shares, and he finds
them honest as regards cotton raising
for the state law requires that cotton
shall be weighed at the gin and settle
ment be made on that weight. Mr..
Marvin acknowledges that Mime
sofa is a good place after all and is
glad to get back for a visit.

DISCHARGED.
Theissen Has His Trial, With This
Result,


Albert Theissen was tried in the
municipal court this morning on the
charge of forcible entry and unlawful
detainer, filed by his mother-in-law,
Mrs. Mary Ann Schroeder. G. 0.
Daley appeared for the prosecution,
and VIM. f. Hughes for the defense.
Theissen pleaded not guilty, and the
case was tried without jury, by con-
sent.
Mrs. Schroeder was the only wit
ness for the state, and she testified
that she had ordered Theissen to keep
away a hundred times, but he con-
tinues to stay there. She had become
tired of supporting Theissen, his wife
and two children. Yesterday Theis-
sen entered the kitchen, and she
locked the rest of the house on him.
Mrs. Theissen was debarred from CIV
ing testimony against her husband, on
the objection of the defense.
Mr.. Hughes moved that the case be
dismissed, on the ground that the
allegations in the complaint had not
been proved. He held that a man
had right to visit his family, no
matter where they were, and that the
fact that his family resided with Mrs.
| Schroeder made that his home. He
also called attention to the fact that
there was no forcible entry, but that
Theissen had gone in quietly.
Mr.. Daley held that as Theissen
had been ordered away from the house
by Mrs. Schroeder, who owned the
property, it was trespassing on his
part if he returned. He held that
there ought to be some way for a
property owner to keep out unwelcome
persons, and that Mrs. Schroeder's
home should be protected.
The court called attention to the
covenant of marriage as recited in the
Bible, that the man and the wife
shall cleave to each other and leave
their own parents, and he held that
while Mr.. Dailey's position as to the
law was well taken, the facts in the
Indictment had not been proved. He
said that this kind of case is the
most disagreeable to try, and said that
all parties were probably to blame.
| He dismissed the action.

Obstinate Thumping.

Sometimes an engine which usually
runs we'll develops an obstinate pound
or thump, which persists in spite of
all the doctoring that can be done to
the machine. In vain the engineer
will go from the wrist pin to the cross
head, and from eccentric to bearing.
Even the fy-wheel and the manner in
which it is keyed upon the shaft will
be investigated to see if the thump is
located therein. After all these things
have, been tried in vain, just give the,
engine a trif1e more compression and
note the result. Probably it will cure
or make it worse In the latter case
change the valve again and give a
little less compression than there was
before. In nineteen cases out Of twen-
ty the change in compression will do
the business. The philosophy of the
business is this: The compression is
too little or to great to, allow the en-
gine to run smoothly over the centre;
and at that point the piston gives a
"yank, which causes wrist pin and
connection and sometimes the main
bearing to vibrate to the extent Of
the lost motion. forming the thump
or pound, which is, so Objectionable
to the good engine runner.

Relics of Charles /.

Among lcllriositjes lately acquired BY
the British Museum the first place is
due to some very remarkable ac-
Quisitions connected with Charles l.,
one being a copy of the secret instruc-
tions to the commissioners appointed
for raising a forced loan in 1926 No
other printed copy Is at present known
to exist, and Mr.. Gardiner, while writ
ing his history of the time, was obliged
to refer to a manuscript in the State
Paper office. The interest of this COPY
is much enhanced by it's being ad-
dressed to the county Of Nottingham,
where Charles was destined to COM
mence the civil war sixteen years af-
terward, and by its bearing his sigma
tllre on the first page of the text. With
this is to be mentioned copy of the
1888 edition of Sternhold and Hopkins
"Psalter, bound in silk, richly en-
broidered with silver, with portraits of
Charles and Henrietta Maria worked
on the covers, and bookmark with
the motto: Your Captive King From
Prison Bring" 1t is enclosed in an
embroidered silk sachet, and accompa-
MED by pair Of richly worked kid
gloves. The freshness of the objects,
which are said to have belonged to
Mrs. Osborne, one Of Queen Henriet-
ta's ladies-in-waiting, is surprising
acquisition. connected in some
measure with Charles l., is one of the
seven extant "Scriptural Harmonies,"
prepared by the Comm unity of Little
Gidding. another of which, executed
for the king at his own request, was
