Mrs Edward Lewis is quite sick

VIM Evans has been on the sick

Evan Davis, who has been very low

Mrs. David Evans came down sick
yesterday. The nature of her illness
we have not yet aScertained.
Mrs. e. T. Evans is also down with
the same sickness. She was taken
with fever last Wednesday morning.
Dr. Williams also has this case.
So as to make the house more quiet,
the children of Mr.. and Mrs. e. t.

S APPROVED BY THE PEOPLE.

Senator Lodge says he has made a
canvas Of the senate and finds only
eight votes which will be cast against
the Monroe doctrine resolutions which
were written by Senator Davis.
| Others put the vote which will be
cast against them as somewhat larger,
ranging from Is to 20. On all sides
it is conceded that they will pass the
senate if brought to vote by a
large majority, though there is feel
ing that they may be quietly smoth-
cred in the house While the FREE
PRESS believes that they should
be adopted by congress, and put
forth to the world as a part of the
policy of this country, it is of the
opinion that even should the resolu-
tions not pass congress, they will to a
certain extent, at least, serve the pur-
pose for which they were intended.
While bitterly opposed here and there
by a leading paper of the country,
they have received the almost solid
endorsement of the press and people.
This has been noted abroad, and Eng
land and other nations will be slow to
overstep the bounds which these res
Olutions have marked out. They
have already eXerted moral infiu-
ence upon the situation with Eng
land, because they have 50 clearly
and forcibly represented the senti-
ment of this country, land if the British
authorities had any idea of purchas-
ing Cuba from Spain they will doubt
less consider the matter long time
before going farther with the pro-
ject. The senate resolutions have
marked we'll the idea of the people
upon the Monroe doctrine and they
will never countenance any going
back upon the definition which has
been thus put forth.

THE CASSIDY HEARING.

The hearing on the motion of 0.
Cassidy to be released from liabilities
under the insolvency law of 1896 con-
tinued throughout today. The chances
are said to, be largely against
Mr.. Cassidy's being released. Judges
Russell and Belden, of MINNEAPOLIS,
sitting together, the other day de-
clared thiSpart of the law unconsti-
tutional. The law was passed April
14th, 1895, and Mr.. Cassidy's indebted
ness has been shown to have been
largely incurred before that time. The
law cannot be retroactive, under the
ruling cited.

MAPLETON.

The l3l anniversary of Robt Burns
| birthday was appropriately celebrated
last Friday, January 24th instead of
January 18th, Burns birthday,
| because the festivities would not
be through until the wee small
hours and our Scotch people will
not trespass on Sunday hours.
Three Kinks were prepared where
the national game of curling
was enjoyed both by the players and
spectators. Not being versed in this
game we cannot say which party
won but Tom Taylor and EleX Ellis
seemed to be the head knockers. A
go, d supper was served in Sprague's
Hall. To the invited guests Raggis
was served. The address of James
Ellis to the Haggis was very fine.
After supper they went to the opera
! House where first class literary pro-
| gram was carried out.
First was the address of welcome by
Mayor Shaulding
| Second, address on Burns by Rev.
very fine and well delivered and was
well received by the audience.

as usual did well.
Fifth, Charley Ellis song. "a Man
good singer and ought to be on the
stage instead of being a Tonsorial
artist.
Sixth, Recitation by VIM. Crawford
of WinnebagO City. Marco BozarOuS
which was well received.
Seventh, Duet by Marie Bachtle
and Mrs Cornish was fine.
! Eight, The two Cronies, j. E.
Brown and Jas Ellis, was one of their
own productions and would make a
tobacco Indian sign laugh.
Ninth, Duet by the Ellis sisters
was well done.
Tenth, Recitation by Robert Nc
Pherson.
Eleventh, Recitation by Buell. Nc
Gregor, which showed good training.
Marietta Spaulding by special re-
quest recited the "Bald Headed
! Man. which was well rendered. This
closed this part of the program.
The entertainment closed with the
laughable farce "Family Jars" which
was well rendered while all acted
their parts well. Alex Ellis deserves
special mention. He ought to go on
the stage.
After the farce the house was
cleared of chairs and those who chose
to enjoyed dance until morning. :
Taking it all together it is by fa1
the best Burns celebration that was
ever held here and it is the wish OF
all that many more such may be en-
ioyed.

people of Vernon Center and vicinity
the past week. Death has entered three
homes, Mr.. Simon Days, Mr.. Bar

bare and desolate. "Friend after friend

There is no union here of hearts that
finds not here an end" Simon Days

years of age, accidently fell into a
boiler of hot water, scalding him ter
ribly, dying the following morning,
Jan. 18th. The funeral service was
held at the M. e. church the day
after. This is the third funeral in
that home within ten months. First
the wife, then the baby, and now last
this little boy. Mr.. Day has the SYM
pathy of all in this bereavment, as
was shown by the large attendance at
the funeral.
Mr.. Hiram r. Barnard died at his
home Thursday evening, Jan. %, sur
rounded by the friends that assisted
in caring for him during his sickness !;
his wife, mother Mrs H. Paddock)and
only child, Miss Eva. All was done
for him that medical skill and loving
hearts could do, but of no avail. He
was recOnciled to go; talked of meet
ing loved ones gone before, and ar
ranging all business. When the call
came, he was ready. The deceased
was born in Marcy, Oneida county n .
Y, Sept. 2, 1S47, enlisted at Marcy in
Co. 9, 1S5th Reg, on May 30, 1864;
was discharged from service May 30,
1865, coming to Mankato in July 1878,
when he was married to Miss Emma
Paddock, daughter of the late Z. Pad
dock. Two years later he came to
Vernon Center where he has since re-
sided, engaging in the mercantile
business. He was thorough business
man, honest and industrious, and &C
cumulated comfortable fortune. The

dence Monday noon, Rev. Brown Off

The deceased was a member of the
Knights of Pythias lodge here, and
also member of the Masonic lodge of
Mankato. The K of p lodge had
charge of the services here, and the
Masonic lodge performing the last sad
rites in Mankato, where he was laid
to rest.
