Bryan credit therefor. Quite the con-

less he deals with religion. Tom Dixon

being anything but 4 politician-a

BUSINESS COLLEGE CHANGE.
w. e. Freeman Succeeds A. q
Matter as Prof. Brandrup's
Partner.

The FREE PRESS has heretofore
chronicled the purchase of Prof. A. G.
Matters interest in the Mankato
Commercial College by Prof. W. E..
Freeman. The change has now act
ually taken place, and Prof. Matter
will study law with B. d. Smith.
Mr. Freeman has arrived, and with
Prof J. r. Brandrup will carry on the
college in the future. Both are pro-
gressiYe young educators, who employ
modern methods ins their work, and
the high standing which the College
has attained to will be in no measure
diminished, but heightened. TO a
young man or young LADY de-
string a business education it
affords exceptional opportunities.
Those who only desire to
learn typewriting or stenogra-
ply can learn as rapidly and as we'll
as anywhere, as is testified to by the
many remunerative situations now
filed by the graduates of the school.
Still another class desires to brush
up knowledge in the summer for fall
examinations or for some other reason,
and the summer course is just the
thing for them, as special attention
is given to such students at this time
of the year.
Prof. Freeman is Normal graduate
and has taught successfully for many
years, and will bring to his new work
full equipment of experience. Prof.
Braudrup's excellence as teacher
speaks for itself in the work already
done here.
We wish the new nrOprieters success.
