Threw a Lot of Gold in a Sack and
Escaped.
Three masked men entered Market Street
Bank, a small institution in the Spreckels
building, in San Francisco, shortly after 10
am, yesterday, and ordered Cashier Hop
kins and Bookkeeper Hayhurst to throw up
their hands.
Hopkins, who was at the counter, refused,
and one robber fired, a bullet passing his
head, but striking neither official
The robbers then climbed through the
hole in the wire screen al the cashiers win
dow, and seized the two bank clerks and
hustled them into the vault. piece of
carpet caught in the door Of the vault, and
the robbers did not take time to fasten the
vault door. Hastily dumping pile of gold
on the cashiers counter into a sack, they
escaped.
Although Market street was crowded with
passing people, the robbers made their es-
cape
It is supposed they secured only $500.

THE HOG DISEASE.

The farmers in the southern part
of this county and also in LIE Sueur
county are meeting in great misfor-
tune in the loss of their hogs which
are suddenly dying off in great num-
bers. 1t has been stated that the
trouble is hog cholera, but no one
seems to know just what it is. In
fact men of long experience with hogs
state that they do not know what it
is. The hogs become suddenly sick
and die almost immediately. This
morning we were Informed that sew
eral who have lost hogs have
cut them open and found their
lungs and intestines to be in
fes ted with worms. This is probably
what is the trouble with the hogs,
and authorities on the subject state
that hogs so affected will not leave OIL
eating until at point where they are
about ready to die. Geo. Monks has
handed us a copy of the american
SaUineherd which says that for hogs
affected with worms, that zone tea
spoonful of sulphurous acid or ten
drops of carbolic acid in pint of milk
twice day, for week, sometimes al
so giving turpentine in swill, will gen.
orally reach the difficulties. Wood
ashes and salt are as strong medicine
as are generally given hog, but far
mers are so used to them that they
don't seem to know that they are CIV
ing medicine. \ X We are convinced
that one half of the so-called cholera
is caused by bacteria and worms. Ii
anything is the matter with the skin,
feed sulphur, also add little coal Oil
to your feed and you will never touch
a hog to get rid or lice" 1t also adds
that any hog that shows any sign OF
sickness should at once be separated
from the rest of the herd.

HIS sUFFERINGS ENDED.
Carl Sudermann, the Little Printer
Passes Away.

Carl Sudermann died at one o'clock
Tuesday at the home OF his aunt,
Mrs HannahAnderson,o nByron street.
He was afflicted with hip disease and
was a great sufferer, having been con-
fined to his bed for five years. He was
twenty-four years of age.
The deceased was printer by trade
and worked in the FREE PRESS and
Reyie,o offices at various times, and
was faithful employee, his deformity
not materially interfering with MS
usefulness. Ever since he has been
in bed. he has done printing with a
little hand press, and had small orders
from all parts of the country In re-
sponse to circulars which he sent OUT
describing his condition.
The many friends of Carl Will SIN
cerely regret his death, and II re-
ward awaits those who are falthful
and earnest in life, his future state
will be far more happy one THAN MS
earthly existence proved to be.
The funeral. occurred Wednesday
afternoon from the house.

IT WAS ACCIDENTAL.
SO Says the Coroner's Jury in
the Archie Bender Inquest.

Coroner Paddock returned from
Lake Crystal Tuesday, and states
that the account of the accidental
shooting of Archie Bender by George
Bahma, published in yesterdays
DAILY FREE PRESS, contained the
main facts. He held an inquest at
the house of Peter Meyer, five miles
beyond Lake Crystal, where Archie
Bender made his home. Iceberg
lake is three miles beyond this house.
The two boys were swapping caps at
each other in fun, when the charge
in Bahma's gun went off. Young
Bahma helped his wounded COM
panion to a barn mile toward
home, where he left him, saying that
he would go for help Being afraid
of the consequences, Bahma ran
away, and it is believed has gone to-
ward his grandfather's house, near
Sleepy Eye. -
The following jury was summoned;
Henry Humphrey, L. Aartt P. Elias,
Seland, Thos Wilson, Guy Thompson
and Peter Polman,
DR.. H. HI. Herring, of Lake Crystal,
was sworn and said that he was called
Sunday evening at about eight o'clock.
Arrived at about nine o'clock. Found
the boy at the house Of P. Meyer, in
Butternut Valley, Found the boy
with a gun shot wound over the
heart on the left side. Examined
wound; extracted two small pebbles
from vicinity of ribs. Found chest
perforated. Determined that lung
was wounded and perhaps perfora-
tion of heart sack. He was in state
of collapse, but rallied a short time l
enquired of boy how it occurred. He
said gun had been discharged in hand
of his companion, George Bahma, and
that it was accidental. Thought they
were about twenty feet apart. They
had been hunting together during the
afternoon. The deceased thought
that the affair was purely accidental.
[ dressed the wound as best [ could

after extracting pebbles. Gave him
some stimulating and quieting medi-
cine and left him. This is all | know
until the boys father came and told
me Monday morning that the boy was
dead. His clothing was damp. Might
have been saved, perhaps, if he had
received medical treatment at once.
He gave quite rational answers, but
at times seemed to be out of his
head. Could not learn that the two
boys had any hard words or trouble.
Mrs. Mary Henrietta Meyer was
called and said that the boy was
brought to her house about $50 p. M
Sunday. He said, "Mrs. Meyer, l am
gone up. Papa has got no more boy. F"
He said: "We were playing with our
guns, swapping caps, and at last
Georges finger slipped and l got shot.
George was scared, dropped his gun
and ran away" He said it was acct
dental. He died at about eight
O'Clock Monday morning
This concluded the testimony, and
the jury brought in verdict that the
deceased, Archie Bender, "came to
his death by accidental shooting by
the hand of George Bahma."

BURDlCk-=HEGMAN.
A Quiet Wedding at Elysian Tuesday
Afternoon

Mr.. Ralph Burdick and Miss Emma
Hegman were married at five o'clock
Tuesday at the residence OF the
brides parents in Elysian, Rev. f..
M. Washburn, of this city, performing
the ceremony, and only half dozen
friends besides the immediate rela-
tives were present, the affair being a
very quiet one.
Mr.. and Mrs. Burdick will return
Immediately to Belle Plaine, where
they will make their future home
and 60 TO house keeping at once.
The bride has resided in Mankato
for ten or twelve years, and during
this time has been one of the most
efficient clerks in Geo. e. Brett's store.
She is a most estimable young lady,
and possessed'of those womanly graces
which give to home it's charm. Mr..
Burdick also resided in this city for
some years, but was recently promot-
ed to be station agent of the Omaha
road at Belle PLANE. He is young
man Of excellent character and is pos
sessed of those sterling qualities
which assure success in any station in
life. Both have hosts of warm
friends, who will join with the FREE
PRESS in extending their best wishes
for the future prosperity and happi-
ness of the young couple.

IN A CRITICAL CONDITION.
Mp. Lee Very Ill at the Home OF Ills
Daughter in Duluth.

The large circle of friends ana ac-
ouaintances of Mr.. n. Z. Lee Will De
extremely sorry to learn OF his severe
illness at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. Jno. Root, Duluth.
Mr.. and Mrs Lee left here last week
for Duluth, expecting to be absent a
connie of weeks. Mr.. Lee has been
poorly all summer, but has been able
to be about most of the time, and as
a result very few of his friends nave
known of his ailment.
Wednesday his daughter, Mrs. T.
E. Wise, received telegram from her
sister, Mrs. Root, bearing the informa-
tion that their father was very low
and his recovery was extremely doubt
full. Mr.. and Mrs. Wise left on the
afternoon train for his bedside. Heart
trouble is the difficulty.
All who know Mr.. Lee sincerely
trust he may speedily recover, and
that his condition is not so serious as
reported.

REPUBLICAN ENTHUSIAST.
Some Splendid rleetings Held in the
County.

The campaign in this county is 60
ing merrily on, and the voters are be-
ing treated to some fine speeches. We
referred yesterday to w. A. Funk's
address at Lake Crystal on Monday
night. VIM. Wilkinson addressed a
big meeting at Spring Island the same
night, and G. L. Smith spoke at Good
Thunder to a crowded house.
Last night Mr.. Funk spoke in Jud-
son, Mr.. Wilkinson in Medo, and Mr..
Smith at Madison Lake, and all had
large and enthusiastic meetings.
Tonight, Mr.. Wilkinson will speak
at Pleasant Mound, Mr.. Smith at
Ceresco, John Lunn at Rapidan, and
r. G.. Evans at Amboy.
MrSmith will speak at Danville to-
morrow night and at Mapleton Friday
night. He is one of the best speakers
in the state, and should have a crowd
ed house at Mapleton. At Good
Thunder Monday night he did the
cause or SOUND money great deal OF
good. At Madison Lake last night he
was interrupted by Populists, but
answered their questions so COM
pletely and satisfactorily that he won
applause and made votes. He pre-
sents the money and tariff questions
in an interesting manner, and holds
the interest of everyone.
W. L. Comstock's recent speech at
Madison Lake was principally on state
issues, and some of the questions last
night were in reference to Gov.
Clough's action in the Hastings & Da-
kota land matter. Mr.. Smith, who is
from Minneapolis and conducts the
agricultural edition of the Tribune,
swered Mr.. Comstock so well that the
community was left with a clear un-
Outstanding of the matter.

A GREAT GAIN.
Prosperous Sound Money Club at
Good Thunder.


Some of the best results of the cam
paign are shown in the town of Lyra,
where the sentiment in favor of sound
money is very general. 1t has been
strongly Democratic, but the sound
sense of the German-A merican voters
there leads them to favor sound
system of finance and law and order,
and the result is that up to Saturday
night the Mckinley Sound Money
club which was organized at Good
Thunder few days ago had los men,
bers. Others have joined since, and
the growth of the club will be rapid
from now on. Two years ago the
township cast 243 votes, and Nelson
received but GA votes. 1t is likely that
Mckinley will receive as many votes
in Lyra this fall as Bryan will, and
possibly will have fair majority.
There are other towns in the county
where the same large gains are re-
ported The outlook in Blue Earth
county was never more favorable for
the Republican ticket than it is at
the present moment.

The park committee and Supt.
Blake have arrived at a compromise,
and Mr.. Blake will continue at the
park at $50 month during eight
months of the year, and will receive
S35 month during the four winter
months. Mr.. Blake is valuable man
for the city, as he takes great in
