INFLUENZA PREVALENT.
What rlankato Physician Has to Say
on the Subject.

Influenza has been raging in all of
the colder ATTITUDES of the world for
the past month, and Mankato has not
escaped. A large number of cases
have occurred, and the physicians
have had their hands full. In speak
ing of the subject DR.. Warner said:
''The influenza differs from the
grip, which swept over the country
four years ago, in that there seems to
be no specific poison in the former.
The first symptoms are loss of ap-
petite, aching in all parts of the body,
chills and a fever that often goes
very high. In some of the cases that
l have been called upon to treat, the
temperature has gone up to 104 de-
grees, with rapid pulse. The first
thing to do is to reduce the fever and
secure absolute rest for the patient.
Following the first attack of the in
fiuenza comes a severe cough, but
this is not dangerous, as it is caused
merely by an irritation of the bron-
chial tubes. No serious results need
be feared as following an attack of
the influenza, as was the case with
the grip four years ago."

WEAVER AND ANDREWS.
A fleeting Friday Night of Prominent
Republicans Takes ReCOmmen-
dations to the Republican
Voters.
Mr.. Weaver is Favored for nayor,
and DIR. Andrews for Alderman
in the Fourth Ward-Harmony
is What Both Factions
Sue For.

Friends of Mayor Weaver and Or.
Andrews to the number of forty met
by invitation at the law office of B.
D. SmithFriday night for the purpose
Of discussing the coming municipal
election and if possible to bring about
a unity of action on the part of the
Republican voters and avoid fight.
The concensus of opinion of those
present was that harmony within the
party ranks was something much to
be desired and those who spoke on the
subject expressed themselves along
that line.
1t was finally decided that the
chairman, Mr.. Lampert, appoint a
committee of three whose duty it
should be to retire for consultation
and report back to the meeting the
name of a gentleman whom it could
recommend 60 the Republican voters
for mayor. The committee selected
was composed of VIM. Plymat, w. w.
l. AASOOhbCll anu ~. LAY
After a delay of about an hour, dur
ing which interval DR.. Andrews and
Mayor Weaver both expressed the
hope that whatever the recommended
tion of the committee might be, they
hoped that their friends would en-
dorse it and stand by the report. And
this the meeting did with a unani-
minity which puts to rest any further
discussion as to whom the Republicans
will select for mayor.
The committee reported that it had
carefully canvassed the names of
several very worthy citizens in con-
nection with the office of mayor and
had finally arrived at the unanimous
conclusion to present the name of
Mr.. Edgar Weaver. The committee
further said that it had dared to go
beyond the authority of it's instruc-
tiOns and begged to recommend to
the voters of the Fourth ward the
name of DR.. j. W. Andrews for alder
man. Both recommendation were
endorsed by rising vote.
Mr.. Weaver will accept the nomina-
tion and it is probable that DR..
Andrews, if the Republicans of the
Fourth ward place him in nomination,
will make the run for alderman. Thus
we are permitted to gaze upon the
biblical picture of, "And the wolf al
so shall dwell with the lamb, and
the leopard shall lie down with the
kid; and the calf and the young lion
and the failing together: and little
child shall lead them"

WONT HAVE 1T.
Mr.. Pau Says That the Mayoralty
has no Charms for Him.

During the past week or two Mr..
A. r. Pau has been prominently
spoken offor mayor by the Democrats,
and it is said that considerable pres
sure has been brought to bear upon
him to influence him to accept the
nomination. Mr. Pau has dictated a
brief letter to the public in which he
declines to allow his name to be used.
In speaking on the subject with a
FREE PRESS reporter today, he said
that he is not now candidate and
will not be one. That not sufficient
pressure has been brought to bear
upon him to cause him to permit the
use of his name, and he does not in
tend to authorized the use of his name
at any time.
This takes out of the field the only
Democrat yet mentioned.

CHRISTIAN HOSPITALITY.

Rev. DR. Samuel Plantz, in the
Michigan Christian Advocate, tells
the following story about the late
DR.. Holmes:
Some fourteen years ago the writer
of this sketch strolled into Kings
Chapel, Boston, to hear DR. Cuyler
preach on See Men as Trees Walking,
or The Illusions of Life, as he an
nounced his subject. The old historic
church was crowded, and as we were
late there was no seat remaining I'M
occupied. Weleaned against the wall
and waited for the organ to speak,
when we noticed a courtly old gentle
man with fine twinkle in his eve
reckoning us with his finger. Think
ing that there was space tor another,
we responded to the call, and We're
greeted by the stranger with an in
vitatlon to occupy his pew. Suppos-
ing that he knew where to get anoth-
CT, after some protests we complied,
while our friend went back and occu
pied our place against the wall.
When the service was over he ex
tended his hand and friendly word,
and to our expression OF regret at sec
ing him stand he simply said, You
are stranger; this is my home"
This courtly man was DR.. Holmes.
Here is the reverse.
The late General n. P. Banks hap
pened to spend Sunday in New York
City and went to Grace Church on
Broadway, wearing huge white
coat, as the day was somewhat chilly.
The "unctous Brown, the usher OF
fashionable society, long the sexton
of that church, with keen eye for
dignity, missed the mark on that &C.
casion, and seated the general near
the door in very unpleasant posi-.
ton. AS the house grew warm, Cen
eral Banks threw open his coat.
The moment Brown canght sight of
the epaulets of major general he
FASTENED to the pew, and in his most
obsequious tones said Il can give
you, general, much better seat"
NO" said the ex-speaker, with
voice that sounded like pedal organ
note at E fiat, the seat that is
good enough for the white coat is
good enough for the blue" and de-
clined to change.

what would have kept the dog
from starving since the shepherd
died if he had not eaten a lamb now
and then? Yes. it had to be, TOR the
good OF the flock the dog must be

Father Gaspard called him by
name, and when he came running up
stroked his head tenderly.

harsh words? Yes, see no malice in

sagacity."
Light of heart, now that his trust
IN the dog was restored, Father Gas
pard started once more on his way
toward the Gabilan. At evening he
reached the edge OF the mountain,
and looking back saw nothing but a
sea OF fog. But had it been clear he

Thc one was dark, with looks that failed
to please;
tfe syent a scythe across the grassy leas.
Win stern-set brow and unrclenting hand.
THE other youth was fair and full of grace,
And babe the reaper rest awhile for breath,
Wherrat he smiled and questioned" Rest
What, Death 2"
Then turned unto his task with eager face.
Then came the youth and touched the reap.
