rlRS PIETSCHS' SUIT.
She Wants a Balm for Broken
Ribs.

The trial of the So, 900 damage suit
of Mrs. Rosalia Pietsch against the
Mankato Street Co. and the City OF
MankatO was. begun Tuesday in
the district court. On December II TIA,
1893, Mrs. Pietsch and her husband
were driving along North Front street,
and when just crossing the branch
street car track to the Omaha road,
the cutter tipped over and Mrs .Pietsch
was thrown out and several ribs were
broken. She claims that there was a
rut between the rails, which caused
the cutter to tip over. The defend
ants deny this.
The following jury was secured: A.
T. Noble, John Almquist, Thos. How
ieson, Paul Olson, Chas. Peterson, 1.
N. Griffith, T. A. Sherk, Clark Key
sor, Nick Weis, David Thomas, Frank
Phillips and A. H. Matteson.
Oscar Bierbauer was appointed in
terpreter for the case.
Mrs. Pietsch occupied the witness
stand during most of the day. The
case will probably go to the jury to-
morrow. Hughes Bros. are attorneys
for the plaintiff, and W. e. Young
and Lorin Cray for the two defend
ants.

GOOD CITIZENSHIP.

The clergy of the city have for the
last few weeks given us some very
good advice on our duties as citizens
but their lack of familiarity with
political methods has led them to
overlook one very important point.
They say vote only for good men, but
they do not seem to be aware of the
fact that none of us will have a
chance to do this unless we see that
such men are on the ticket.
In a short time now the different
city committees will issue calls fol
the caucuses, and right there and
then is the time and place for the re.
former to be on deck.
This is just where they have always
failed to put in an appearance. In
fact, the aforesaid good citizen must
be active before this caucus, even, OF
he will go to the primary and have a
printed list of delegates put into his
hands prepared by those who have
axes to grind, and he can vote this
list or 60 home. At the caucus and
before the caucus the seeds are Sown
which blossom later into good city
government or bad one, as the quail
ity of the seeds may determine.

SLANDERCHARGED

POcketboOk After the
Circus.
The Jury Finds That She ToEC
no Slander=-r1rS. PietSch Fails
i'm Her Suit.

The SANDER suit of Paul Rohde VS..
Hattie and William Ta"no was given
to the jury Thursday. Mr.. Rohde
claimed that he and other parties
came to Mankato on circus day, June
23rd, 1894, and watched the parade
along Front street. Mrs. Tarno, who
lives in LIE Ray, claimed to have lost
pocketbook containing seven dol
lars. Mr.. Rohde claimed that she
had discourse six days later with
Julius Millerlile and Others, in which
she said: '"The gentleman that stood
with the Glockzin girls on the circus
day is the gentleman who took my
money" He asked the court to give
him s., 900 to equalize the damage to his
reputation and feelings, as he was the
gentleman who was standing with the
Misses Glockzin on that eyentful day.
The jury was out only short time
and brought in verdict for the de-
PENDANT.
In the trial, Mrs. Tarno stated that
what she did say was: 81 think a
friend took my money" She denied
having said anything else, and the
court instructed the jury that these
words did not of themselves consti-
tute SANDER against Mr.. Rahde.
The witnesses examined on the part
of the plaintiff were Julius Millerlile,
Hattie Tarno, Paul Rohde, VIM. Pitt
man and Fred Thompson. Mr.. and
Mrs, Tarno were the only witnesses
for the defense. In rebuttal for the
plaintiff, Mrs. e. Bequest, Mrs. G.
Rohde, Hattie and VIM. Gladzin were
sworn. Thomas Hughes argued the
case for the defendant and B. ID.
Smith for the plaintiff.
This afternoon the trial of the suit
of the Reading Stove Works, 0. W.
Painter & Co., a corporation, VS.. Mich
olas Weis and Albert Theissen, CO.
partners, as Weis & Theissen, was
begun before Judge Caldwell, of LIE
Sueur. This case was tried once be-
fore by Judge Caldwell, and the jury
awarded the plaintiff $40. A new
trial was granted on the ground of in
suf1iciency of the verdict. The amount
sued for is 1920. Attorneys Rutan and
Plymat are attorneys for the plaintiff,
and Attorneys Cray and Pau & Young
for the defendants.
The jury returned verdict for the
defendants in the suit of ROSa]ia
Pietsch VS.. The MankatO Street Rail
way Co. and the City of Mankato
VIM. Hughes argued the case for the
plaintiff yesterday afternoon.

A SAD CASE.
A Crazy Woman Wandering About
the City.

On Friday last Humane Officer
Sheldon was notified that an insane
woman was wandering about the city,
carrying babe in her arms. He
traced her to North Seventh street,
but nothing has been heard of her
since then. She stopped at many
houses in different parts of the city
making strange requests. At one
house she asked for a butcher knife.
at another for some hairpins, and at a
third for baby carriage. She also
asked for food at one house.
Judge Mead was notified, and di-
rected that the woman be brought
before him Saturday morning for eX-
animation. She was not produced,
however, and the judge has not heard
of the case since.

DR.. ANDREWS WILL RUN.
He Consents to Become a Candidate
For Alderman.

The following petition, largely
signed by voters of the Fourth ward,
has been presented to DR.. Andrews:
"1O Or. J. w. ARdrPoCS:
DEAR Strive, the undersigned
voters of the Fourth ward, respect
fully petition that you consent to the
use of your name before the Repub-
lican primary for the position of
alderman from the aforesaid ward"
Dr.. Andrews has had the matter
under advisement, and has finally con-
sented to become candidate. 1t
would be difficult for the ward to find
a better equipped man for the office,
and the voters are to be congratulated
upon having secured his consent to
become candidate. Now let the
other wards select as good men, and
the people of Mankato will have no
occasion to find fault with the next
council.
