DAMAGE OVER-ESTIMATED.
Army Worms Near Faribault Not AS
Bad AS Reported.

Mayor Weaver took ride over the
territory reported to be infested with
army worms, Friday. Ten miles
east of Faribault he found field of
oats damaged about twenty per cent.
In field of succotash the oats had
been eaten away, but the wheat was
untouched.
One mile east of Kenyon he saw an
oat bundle which had not dozen
heads left. Not more than three
worms had been seen on one stalk by
anyone. Mr.. Weaver did not see many
worms, and was told that they go into
the ground in the day time and come
out about shutdown and do the damage
then. The worms are on flax to some
extent. The general impression OBJ
tanned from his trip was that the re.
ports of the ravages of the worms are
greatly exaggerated and that most OF
the loss is imaginary.

A Garden City Would-be Tramp Re-

Winnebago City Press NeWs: A
young fellow, living at Garden City,
started out for tramp last Saturday,
reaching here Sunday morning when
he was arrested on suspicion of being
implicated in the Blue Earth robbery
He was so scared that he could not
eat bite until released latter on in
the day. When the officer who made
the arrest released him from custody
the young man made the remark that
| he would take the next train for
home, he having had sufficient expert
ence in the tramp line to last him
for life.

WORMS AT WORK.
Except for This, the Crop Reports
Are Most Favorable.

w. R. B. Smyth's weekly crop re-
ports are very favorable, as rule,
and nowhere more so than in this
vicinity. Several agents report the
army worm and other worms at work,
but no great amount of damage is re-
ported. The following is the sub
stance of the reports:
Amboy-Wheat and oats good, fax
and corn fair, hay extra.
Minneota-Wheat fair, other crops
good.
New Ulm-All crops very good.
Rochester = Some of the wheat
will be half a crop and some is not

corn.
Henry, S. Wheat is still doing

NARROW ESCAPE.
Handcar Full of Men Run Into BY a.
Freight Train.

There came near being a frightful
accident early Sunday morning on the
Chicago & Northwestern road. Sec
tion Foreman Peter Kerns, his SON
and three other railroad employees got.
onto a handcar about midnight and
started to go to Mr.. Kerns' home, near
Mankato Junction. They were max
ing good time, but when near the
crossing of che ST. Peter road met a
freight train, consisting of an engine
and several cars, backing down tow,
ards the city. The collision with the.
first car threw the men off. Mr.
Kerns, ST., received bad cut in one,
leg and some severe bruises. John
Marquette sustained broken leg and
other injuries. He is in the hospital.
The other men were uninjured.
Had not the train been going at,
less than the usual rate of speed, the
men would not have escaped so

ing Mankato.

Officer Daniels is a believer in the
stone pile as means of Kidding a city
of tramps. He said that when he
went on his present beat July 1st,
that from a dozen to sixteen tramps
were locked up every night until it
was seen that the city would do moth
ing with them. Since the ordinance
has been enforced this week, it is
difficult to find aftramp in the city.
The last two nights, diligent search
has failed to bring to light any.
A brakeman on an Omaha freight
train said today load of tramps got
off at Lake Crystal, and when he ask
ed them why they did not go on to
Mankato they said that there is a
stone pile in this city.

COMPETING WITH KASOTA.
WidelI & Co. Send Stone to Our
Neighboring Town.

Widell & Co. last week shipped $50
car loads of stone to Kasota to be
used in bridge work. This is like
carrying coal to Newcastle, for the
Kasotans have always prided them
selves on their stone quarries.
Mr.. Widell will in a couple of days
complete his contract for excavating
along the Chicago & Northwestern
track through the stone quarries for
the new Omaha track. This has been
long cut through solid rock, twenty
feet wide.
The company's pay roll last month
was over $4,000, and this month it
will reach the $4,000 mark This is
a big sum of money for one firm to
pay out, and the whole of it enters
the channels of trade in this city.
