LEAGUE CLUB COMING.
Comiskey Will Play With the Tan
katO Club.

While in st. Paul Monday, Capt.
Messerly arranged with Comiskey,
captain of the st. Paul league team,
for a game in this city. 1t is probable
that the game will be played next
Monday. This will probably be
the final game of the season in this
city, and it will be the best. There
are many who believe that the Man
kato club is equal to league club, and
the St. Paul stand second or third
from the top in the leagues season
score. The ball park will not be big
enough to hold the people who will
want to see this game.
An effort will be made to have the
stores close from 400 to 500 p. M, as
the game will be called at 3 80 p. m.
Excursion rates of one and third
fare for the round trip can be secured
on all the roads by parties of ten OF
more, and large attendance from
outside of the city is expected. There
will be the biggest crowd of the sea-
son out.

BACTERIA.
DIR. e. j. Davis Enlightens the
Social Science Club as to their
Habits.

At the Social Science Club Tues
day DR.. E. j. Davis read the paper
for the evening, The doctor varied
from the subject announced some
what, and discussed micro-organ-
isms and their Relation to Disease"
Although somewhat technical, the
doctor put it in form which proved
very interesting to the members and
was very instructive. The study of
bacteria, he said, has for years occupi-
ed the attention of scientific men,
and for the past decade probably NOR
than any other subject in modern
science. Great numbers of observers
are at present at work on both con-
tinents in the solution Of the germ
theory Of disease. Comparatively I'M
known until within few years, on
account of their very minute size,
these micro-organiSms attracted at
tention and experimentation chiefly
when the improvement of the micro
scope allowed objects of their size to
come within the limits of it's power
of observation. These bacteria, he
said, are the lowest of organisms, be-
longing to the vegetable kingdom
and are thus defined by the botanists.
He then followed the developments
which have come from the study of
bacteria, described the conditions I'M
der which they thrived. speaking of
the dangers from as well as to what
we are indebted to them for. He al
luded to the work of Koch, PaSteur
and others in their close study of dis
ease germs and the remedies they
have brought forth to counterfeit
their deadly effects. But he said that
much as had already been discovered
regarding the working of bacteria,
the study has only commenced, and
much is yet to be found out by
patient study. He gave quite list
of diseases which are attributed to
bacteria, and especially commented
to some extent as to tuberculosis and
diphtheria and of antioXtine which
has been successfully used in the lat
ter disease in so many instances
since it was discovered.
AS one listened to the paper he
could not fail to recognize the great
work science is doing in the medical
world, for the benefit of mankind.
Mr.. Nelson Weed opened the discus
sion in a pleasant manner touching
upon the paper and also upon ad-
vances which have been made in the
line of sanitation.
He was followed by Prof. Cox, Drs.
Andrews, James and Steele, Rev.
Stout, Prof. Holtz and others, and the
discussion was of very instructive
and interesting nature.
The next meeting will occur on
Sept. "a, when j. D. Hilger will read
paper upon Department Stores
their Effect upon Commercial and
Social Interests"

X. c. PICKETT ARRESTED.
Charged With Embedding from Ros-
enberger & Mobiles.

A warrant was issued in the NUM-
cipal court few days ago for the ar
rest of Reuben G. Pickett, on the
charge of grand larceny in the second
degree, on complaint of John G. No
bles, of Rosenberger & Mobiles. Sher-
if Bowen received a telegram
Monday from the sheriff at Cresco,
Iowa, saying that he had Pickett ar
rested and for Mr.. Bowen to come
after him if he wanted him. Mr..
Bowen took the first train, and as Mr..
Pickett made no objection to return
ing without requisition papers, the
sheriff brought him back on the noon
train today. The warrant charges
that Pickett embezzled 5000 in money
from Rosenberger & Mobiles, while
acting as their agent. Lorin Cray is
attorney for Rosenberger & Mobiles.
Mr.. Pickett has retained A. r.
Pau and will probably ask for an ex-
animation. He denies the charge,
and says that he collected the money
and that the mistake occurred after
it left his hands. He collected $3.50
and got draft with it to remit to the
house, but when it reached the house
it was for but $1.50. The other $50 he
says is an open account which is I'M
derstood by both sides.
Mr.. Mobiles states that they checked
up with Mr.. Pickett, found the short
age, and sent him back to find out
about it. He did not return and the
warrant was issued.
Mr.. Pickett says that he would have
returned, anyway. He has wife and
two bright children in this city. He
has lived here for about eight months,
and has travelled for Rosenberger &
Mobiles during that time. He has
travelled for some years, and nothing
is known here to his detriment.
Mr.. Pickett was searching for bail
Tuesday, and the time of his ex-
animation will be set,
