About Horses,

The high prices row received for
the grade cOacherS leave no doubt OF
the commercial success of the coach
horse cross. The French and German
Coach Cleveland Bay and Hockney
stations whenever bred to good large
sound mares have produced the colts
that are now maturing and picked up
by the dealers for city and export and
trade as fast as they can be found and
at 5000 to $500 each or about ten times
higher than the common horses sell
for. Yet most farmers prefer to raise
the little trotter at $50 rather than
breed to an imported coach stallion
and produce high class horse at a
high price. The prejudice cost more
than taxes and family expenses but it
is a luxury many will enjoy, cost what
it may, because their cheap scrub
horses are so cheap and worthless they
will not raise any horses as horse is
horse with them.-Wes Agri-
culturalist and Live Stock Journal.
A New York importer advertises in
the Horseman pair OF grade French
Coach geldings at 800. What change.
These cOachers encountered great
prejudice but have won their way to
the front on the merit of style, beau
ty and action, yet how few farmers are
even yet breeding them although
every grade cOacher is bought at ma
turity and at fancy prices and because
scrub are cheap farmers refuse to raise
what the market requires Western

II. w. MENDENHALL DEAD.
He was Former Blue Earth County
Man.

WAN.
w. W. Mendenhall received a tele.
gram yesterday that his father, III. w.
Mendenhall, had just died. Two days
before he received a dispatch con-
tanning the information of the serious
illness of his father. The latter had
been sick only few days, having been
attacked with inflammation of the
bowels. The remains were inferred
at Whittier, California, today.
The deceased was born at Darling
ton, Indiana, and was SiXty-eight years
of age. In 1854 he moved to LIE Sueur
county, and to Blue Earth county
twelve years later. That year, with
j. B. Swan and Mr.. KenwOrthy, he
built mill at Rapidan and carried on
a milling business for about twenty
years. He also had fruit farm. Mr..
Mendenhall and Mr.. Swan married
two daughters of Mr.. Kenworthy.
Mr.. Mendenhall's wife and five children
survive him, the latter being w. W.
Mendenhall, of Rapidan, Mrs. VIM.
Cook, of Montana, Mrs Prof. George,
of St. Peter, and Misses Minnie and
Ida, of California.
Mr.. Mendenhall moved to California
three years ago. He was member of
the Methodist church, and was highly
respected by his neighbors, and had
many friends, all of whom will be
sorry to learn of his death.

The Minnesota State Prison board
of managers have issued circular re-
garding prices on prison Irvine for this
season. They are offering pure Amer
lean hemp Irvine 525 feet to the pound
for sc. This is reduction of 2 cents
per pound from last year. Four other
kinds Of Irvine are offered ranging in
price from Al to 81 cents per pound,
and the different grades are guaran-
teed first-class in every respect. They
advise the farmers to order in carload
lots, as they not only get the Irvine
cheaper, but also save in freights. A
carload is 10000 pounds, Any infor.

| tanning much interestand valuable
matter. They have secured COM
mittee of ladies in this city who will
canvass the city for subscriptions for
this edition of the Dispatch, and they
will undoubtedly meet with the best
of success.
Signs have been painted for the
city, saying that no swimming will
| be allowed in the river, and these
will be posted up along the river
bank. Officer Kelly states that yes
terday he ordered a number of boys
out of the river, and that he will not
permit bathing in any manner,
whether with bathing suits or not,
claiming that the ordinance does not
discriminate. We doubt whether an
ordinance that prohibits bathing in a
proper and decent bathing suit would
hold good in the courts, and we can
see no objection to such bathing.
An item in one of the Twin city
papers regarding the Elias estate.
says that the coroner turned all the
personal effects over to Loren Elias
yesterday. "The coroner stated that
the estate amounted to about ST, 500,
and it it is understood that Mr.. Elias
and his attorney have found piece
of valuable property in South Mime
apolis which belonged to the family.
The laundry will be sold. Receipts
have been found among Mrs. Elias
effects for about $4,000, which her
son has given her from time to time"
The dog catchers were busy Monday
and brought in number of CANNES,
all of them worthless ours, but many
of them evidently family pets by
their friendly wag of the tail. Two
of the catchers have wagon made on
purpose for their work, capable of
holding dozen dogs. The "catch"
was hustled into the basement Of the
city hall, where three days is given
for the owners to pay the charges and
get them out. Over hundred
licenses have been taken out, and
City Becorder Smith was busy today.
The dog nuisance will be considerably
abated by the end of the week.
AT the meeting of the X. of H.
lodge Tuesday, there was an alarm
at the door during the recess, and up
on opening the same they found
number of ladies, who had with them
a good supply of refreshments.
-Four large tables were put in or
der, decorated with flowers, and
fruit, cake, coffee, ETC., was served,
after which all repaired to the lodge
room where social time was enjoyed,
interpersed with music and singing,
and short speeches by L. S. Foster and
I'll. P. Jensen. There was a good at
tendance and most pleasant time
was had.
Gen. j. Fl. Baker has accepted an
invitation to give the address at the
meeting of the Sons of the Revolution
to be held at the Ryan, St. Paul, next
Monday night. The meeting will be
held to commemorate the battle of
Bunker Hill, that being the 10th an
niversary of the battle. A banquet
will also be held. Those present are
assured of hearing fine address.
Gen. Bakers address in this city on
Memorial day has attracted a great
deal of favorable attention, and he
has received congratulatory letters
from as far as Cincinnati. Many
speak of it as the best effort of his
life.

PUT UP GUIDE BOARDS.

A gentleman who has been around
the county considerably of late calls
our attention to the absence of
guide boards, which he says the law
requires town supervisors to erect on
road corners. He says that in Shelby
and Rapidan there are no guide boards,
only two in Garden City, and one mu-
tilated one in Vernon. Other towns
