ITS REDEEMER DON'T LIVE,
A Wild Cat Bank Note Bearing H. A. Su-
billa's Signature.

The st. Peter Herald of this week re-
cords the following interesting incident:
The First National Bank Of this city
received, last week, a bill, from a New
York firm, which IS somewhat of curl
osty. It is bank bill Of the Peoples
Bank of St. Peter, issued in 1868, and is
a species of the wild cat currency which
was in general circulation at that time. The
bill was sent to the New York firm from
Europe and sent on here for redemption.
Of course at this late day it was not
redeemed as the Peoples Bank went out
of business about thirty years ago. Be-
fore closing, however, it redeemed all of
it's currency in gold and was the only
bank in Minnesota to- do this, and had
this hill been presented at that time, it
would have been redeemed with the rest.
u. A. Montfort, now president of the
Second National Bank of St Paul, and
the late E. S. Edgerton of St. Paul, were
the officers of the bank and their names
appear on this bill. F. A. Donahower
was in charge of the local bank. H. A.
Subilia countersigned the bill which states
that it was secured by pledged securities
As these were afterwards repudiated 1t
will be seen that it was the honor of the
bankers, ,rather than the securities, which
occasioned their redemption in gold
The bill is a crisp note still, and, while
the paperswas poor, the front was hand
somely designed, the back being blank
It is quite cur osity.

MUCH TOO EAGER TO WED,
Farmer Fisher Married Without Knowing
Anything of His Bride.
He Has Since Repented and Seeks to Have
the Matrimonial Bond Severed
by Process of Law.
She Was Too Pugllistic For HIM at
Times.

A sensational divorce case has been
commenced in the district court of Red.
wood county whereby an old farmer
named John Fisher, who is about fifty
five years of age, requests the court to
grant him decree of divorce from his
wife, Bertha Fisher, who is only thirty
five years of age. The decree IS asked
for on the grounds of cruel and inhuman
intreatment.
It appears that some time during last
fall widowed lady from Minneapolis
came to Lamberton. What her widowed
or maiden name was no one seems to
know. She fell in with blacksmith
there named Wonsyld. They lived to-
gether for about six weeks and then
Wonsyld appears to have cast her off.
She alleges, that Wonsyld promised to
marry her, and went to Sleepy Eye,
where she consulted Somerville & Olsen
with view of bringing breach of
promise suit asking for 5000 for trifllng
with her affections. The complaint was
served, but for some reason or other the
matter has been dropped.
After Wonsyld cast aside the woman
bricklayer named August Groechel
residing in Lamberton, and always rea-
dy for fun, heard of Fishers desire
for wife. He saw Fisher and entered
into an agreement with him whereby
Fisher is alleged to have agreed to pay
Groechel $50 for securing him a wife
Groechel saw the woman and she readi
ly consented to marry Fisher without
even seeing him. Fisher and the wo
man were married shortly afterwards
and three weeks after the wedding day
Fisher ceased living with the woman
leaving her sole mistress of the Fisher
home. He alleges that she beat anC
bruised him terribly and that he coul6
not check her in her attacks. He claims
to be afraid of her and on ore or two
occasions called in the deputy sheriff t(
quiet the woman while she was IN u ii
Of passion.

IT'S A CRUMBLING SEAT.
Such is Beaver Falls for Which the Courts
~ Have Turned Down Olivia.
Morton People Afraid that the Old Court
House Structure will be Fired.

Olivia's latest scheme by which to hold
the county seat Is to institute proceed
ings showing that Beaver Falls was ne
yer actually declared to he the seat Of
government. But the citizens of Nor
ton are all awake to the interests of the
south side Of the county, and a special
from that place to the Minneapolis Jour-
nal of Saturday makes public some new
and interesting developments. The spe-
cial reads as fellows:
The new proceedings brought by the
village of Olivia to hold the county seat
are thought to be practically without
foundation and only tending to prolong
the agony of the removal back to Beaver
Falls. It is known that the Milwaukee
road has taken an interest in the fight
and attorneys Of that company dug up
the question on which this newest fight
is being made.
1t is asserted that there is nothing to
Olivia's new claim, and that, if Beaver
Falls never was actually declared the
county seat, it held the records for over
% years, and thus Olivia's question is
barred under the statute of limitations.
| Beaver Falls exists no more as vii
lage. It forms part of a township. The
few houses are located between four hill;
around which Beaver creek passes. The
courthouse, two-story frame building
unworthy of any county, stands there
without any visible signs of life at thu
present time. 1t is carefully guarded
night and day by the Morton county sea
boomers, who do not propose that TIN
building shall he destroyed by fire
There is postoffice there with a lad,
acting as postmistress. She also runs
small store that furnishes all the good
sold in Beaver Falls. There are abou
Is residences in the town, the larger pol
ton unoccupied, and will remain SO un
til the county officers go back. On til
top of the eastern hill stands the two
story stone courthouse and Jail, crumb
ling into ruins and long since passed OF
of usefulness. 1t was a peculiar strue
ture and prisoners had easy times escaE
ing from it. 1t is pointed out as the fir:
Renville county courthouse and as hay
ing been built entirely of Renville coul
ty stone.

AN ACCIDENTAL DEATH
Orola Billings Fails From a Wagon in Lin
den and Dies Soon After.

Wednesday morning, while driving
home from the Linden creamery, Orola
Billings fell from wagon and sustained
a shock from which he died within
few hours. Nels Nelson, who lives on
the Blue Earth county line, saw the team
coming towards his ho,:,c without Il
driver and accordingly proceeded to in
vestigate. He found a mar in an uncon-
scious condition only short distance up
the road, and at once had him removed
to his house where he died soon AFTER
The Blue Earth county coroner was
summoned, but after his arrival 1t was
discovered that the accident occurred
within Brown county. DR.. Rothenburg
was therefore telgraphed to Thursday
morning and went out to Nelson's place
the same afternoon. He found the con-
ditions pointing to heart disease as the
cause of the mans fall, and further in
VestlSatlon, except as TO the dead man S
relationship, was declared to be unneces-
sary.
Billings was a comparative stranger
in Brown county, having come here in
search of work onlY'a week ago. He
was given employment by VIM. Davis
of Cambria, and was hauling milk fol
him at the time the accident occurred.
From all appearances, the coroner con-
cluded that he was a temperate fellow
when alive, and Mr.. Davis testified as to
his having been unusually industrious
and intelligent. He was about forty three
years of age, and widowcr, his children
living at the present time with thei1
grandparents in Wisconsin.

A BACK NUMBER OPINES
E. D. French of Redwood Falls Does Lit
tie Shouting for McCleary.

Era,tus D. French, who IS said to have
once been a state senator from this dis
trict but who has sufficiently passed FROM
public memory to make his appearance
at this time seem like the bobbing up of
RIP Van Wrinkle, was discovered ling
ering around the corridors of the Wins
dor Hotel in St. Paul on Friday and was
asked by Times reporter for an express
sion Of opinion as to the Congressio nal
outlook down in the Second district.
He answered just as though he knew all
about it and said:
see by the times that Ed. Weaver has
finally withdrawn his name unequivo%al-
ly and declares his intention not to be a
candidate. | think this is Il wise move
on the part of Mr.. Weaver, because in
nv Judgment he could not have defeat
ed Mr.. McClearY for the nomination, ev-
en- if he had succeeded in taking the Blue
Earth delegation away from him. You
see Mr.. McCleary, while his home is in
Mankato, nearly belongs to the whole
Second district. For three years past
he has served our people in the house of
representatives in a most satisfactory
manner. He is right upon the question
of protection, sound on financial issues
and altogether exemplary i'll all his poll
tical opinions. In some sections of
Brown county Mr.. Somerville, of Sleepy
Eye, has a following. But the combined
opposition to Mr.. McCleary could not
under existing conditions have exceeded
10 per cent of the total strength of the
Republican party in the district. think
since Weaver's retirement that the threat:
of downing McCleary may be regarded
as mere wind.

IT is J0HNSON'S BADGE
Herman schleuder of this City is in Pos
session of the Great BicVclist's Medal.
BE Secured it From Tramp in Return 70:
Meal.

Last week Herman Schleuder of this
city came into possession of a gold badge
inscribed as follows: "Ten miles, Min
neapolis team, August, 1893." He ob-
tanned it from a tramp who stopped off
here on his way to the west, and who
pledged 1t for the price of a meal. Mr..
Schleuder at once wrote to the NIinnea
polls Journal, inquiring as to the owner,
and the Journal of Friday says: There
is an interesting little bit of history in
connection with this badge, and it would
he the more interesting to understand
just how Mr.. Tramp got hold of it. The
badge is the property Of John S. John
son, who was a member of the Minnea-
polls team at the time it was won in the
team race of 1898. When presented to
johnson the badge had his name inscribed
on bar at the top, suspended by a light
gold chain, but the bar is now missing,
and the tramp or some previous holder
of this badge has removed it. Five Mir-
neapolis men were presented with me-
dals after the team here referred to.
They were john S. johnson, Will Becker,
John Roche, Alex Graham and Collie
Bell. Every man of the five, with the
exception of Johnson, still has his badge,
but Johnny lost his at Independence,
Iowa, when he was down there after rec
ords at the time when Eek first diecov-
cred what turn of speed there was in
the rangy Minneapolitan. Johnny said
st the time that he believed the badge
was lost in his dressing room at the track,
but he could not swear to it, and this is
the first report that has been received
from it since. Doubtless he has forgot
tell the Minneapolis team race medal en-
tirely, but johnson is now at Milan. TIA
ly, and somehow or other racing man
sets a good deal more value on his early
trophies than he does on those won later
even though the later winnings may have
1000 times the value attached to them
There is very little doubt that if Mr.
Schleuder, Of New Ulm, will forward
the badge he has in his possession tc
John S. Johnson, care of 7. w. Eek, Ho
tel Columbia, Milan, he will get the thanks
of the former owner of the medal. Where
the tramp got it will remain mystery up
less johnson can explain, but it must bt
remembered that some of the lnillicnair
es of '93 are the tramps of to- day, ant
the traveller Mr.. Schleuder met may hav,
got the gold trophy all regularity.

Senator Wolcott of Colorado has writ
ten letter defining his position on the
financial plank of the St. Louis coayen-
ton. Should it declare in favor of a sin
gle gold standard, he says that he will
still remain within the Republican party,
and he gives his reasons as follows: There
is no sacrifice I would not make to Sc
cure the remonetization ofsilver, because
in my opinion prosperity will never re-
turn to us until bimetallism at the for
mer ratio is re-established, and because
the appreciating price of gold and the
shrinkage of values which necessarily
follow this appreciation must bring only
disaster, adversely and suffering to all
the people OF this country who are not
lenders of money. To secure the unli-
mited courage of silver I would count
party ties as nothing. At this moment
however, the situation which confronts
us is this: Both of the two great parties
are apparently opposed to free coinage
by the United States. The Populist Par.
ty favors free coinage, but only as E
means to secure more currency, and as E
stepping stone to unlimited paper money
and it unltes with it's free coinage advo
cacy socialistic and paternalistic doc
trines which are dangerous in tendenc!
and which would be-if adonted-. de
structive to free Institute, -. Unde
these circumstances and conditl.As, there
fore, I desire to be counted as Repub
lican, proud of the traditions of my par
ty, glorying in its achievements and still
hopeful that the great party which ha
heretofore stood for the masses agains
the classes may on this great economi
question yet range itself on the side O
humanity and civilization.
