FARMERS ARE BUSY.

A FREE PRESS man returned today
from an extended trip through this
county. Most of the farmers have so
much work they don't know what to
do first. Threshing machines can be
seen in every direction in the south
ern part of the county but it will still
take nearly month before all the
threshlng is finished. The farmers
say they could not get machines be-
fore and now there are so many
around that help is scarce. The corn
is probably half husked and is fair
crop. Whatever else the farmers have
to do they never neglect an opportu
nifty to get into or hear political
discussion. Blue Earth county will
surely go Republican. The farmers
are not all free silverites by any means.

A SPLENDID PARADE,
But the Big Crowd at rlapleton Had
no Speaker.

A most unfortunate misunderstand-
ing or mistake on the part Of the Re-
publican state central committee de-
prived the great rally of the sound
money forces of the southern part of
the county at Mapleton Friday of a
speaker. The county committee had
received advices from the state COM
mittee that Ex-Mayor Eustis, of Min
neapolis, had been assigned to Maple
for Friday, and the fact wass widely
advertised. Instead of his appearing
at Mapleton, the state com nittee had
booked him for Sleepy Eye, and he
spoke at the latter place that night.
The absence of the speaker of the
evening was great disappointment
as people had come in from ten miles
distant to hear the address. A grand
torch light procession was organized
and carried out. Two hundred torches
had been supplied from this city, and
were nowhere near enough to go
around. The band was out, and there
was nothing lacking for the complete
success of the affair except the pre-
sence of Mr.. Eustis. A telegram from
the state central committee was read,
saying that Hon. Frank Nye, of Min
neapolis, would speak there Oct. 10Th.
Every arrangement is made to
have the greatest kind of sound
money demonstration at Mapleton
Thursday night, Oct. 10Th. Besides
Mr.. Nye, who is one of the most bril-
liant orators in the Northwest, Mr.. j..
Adam Bede will speak. Mr.. Bede has
wide reputation as an incisive
talker, and the fact that he complete
ly used up Congressman Towne in a
recent joint debate is sufficient evil
dence that he will give splendid adj
dress. These two speakers are both
high class talent, and the people of
Mapleton will hear the best that can
be found, as recompense for the un-
fortunate failure Friday. Auot he r
parade will be organized, an increased
number of torches sent from this city.

ming with sermons by Rev. 0. r.
Morris, of Lime Springs, and Hugh
Davis, d. D., Pennsylvania.
The erection of this beautiful
church edifice was first considered by
the society the first part of the pre-
sent year. Efforts were made to Sc
cure subscriptions towards building
this church which were very encour-
aging, consequently about March 1st
committee of eight persons was duly
chosen to secure plans and specifica-
tions and advertise for bids, etc.
Plans were prepared by Architect
f. Thayer, of this city. and VIM. D.
Owens & Co. secured the contract,
they being the lowest bidders.
The church is built of red brick
with stone trimmings, metal cor
nices, etc. The extreme length is 80
feet and the width 81 feet. The inside
finish hardwood, the walls having
been beautifully frescoed by Joseph
Manderfeld. Separating the Sunday
school room from the main auditor
ium are large rolling partitions, and
when these are thrown open the
church has seating capacity of
about 600 people. 1t is modern
throughout, has inclined floor, colored
loaded windows and circular pews.

More Inquiries.

Chief Yates received letter last
night from Mrs. Ayres, of Mauntauk,
Conn.,, asking about the man without
memory, in the hope that he might
be her husband, who had disappeared
last spring. The description given
does not fit this case.
Dr. Andrews wrote to DR.. Tomlin-
son, of the ST. Peter hospital, asking
whether any such patient had escaped,
but received negative reply, with
two suggestions regarding the man.
One was that he has the mental dis
ease known as duel personality, and
the other was that he is fraud. DR..
Andrews does not believe that the
latter is the case.

FRUIT STORE BURNED.
w, w. PhaIen Met with a Loss Last
Night.

One Of w. T. Mills small frame
buildings on South Front street, near
Liberty, was Quilted with fire shortly
after midnight Monday. W. w.
Phalen has occupied it with small
fruit and confectionery business, and
has used the rear as a sleeping apart
ment. He was walked up to find the
room in flames, and had time to seize
his clothing and run out. After he
had dressed in the alley, he returned
to get some money that he had left in
his room, and nearly suffocated before
he could get out again.
The fire department was on hand
promptly and soon had the blaze I'M
der control, but not before the build
ing and stock were badly damaged.

THE AMBOY RALLY.
Congressman HcCleary Addresses a
Great Audience There.

The biggest rally of the campaign
at Amboy occurred Thursday night,
on the occasion of Congressman Nc
Cleary's visit. The hall was unable
to hold all who wanted to hear our
brilliant congressman, and the great
est enthusiasm prevailed. Congress
man McCleary spoke for three hours
and held the closest attention of his
hearers throughout. 1t is spoken of
as being one of the finest speeches
which the Congressman has ever de-
livered in the county, and the cause
of sound money is always above par
in the country tributary to Amboy.

REPUBLICAN TORCHES STOLEN.

The Republican torches for use in
parades have been stored in build
ing on South Front street. A few
nights ago some parties broke in and
stole quantity of them, believed to
be from 70 to 80. 1t is thought that
several parties were engaged in the
work, and the officers of the McKin-
ley Sound Money club believe that
they knew who part of them are.
The torches have been removed to a
place of safety. The stealing of these
torches was diabolical act, and the
thieves ought to be prosecuted.

remaining unpaid upon the new
structure and furnishings, and the
same was responded to with such
hearty good will and liberality by
friends from abroad and the surround
ing country, as well as members of the
home congregation, that the sum of
81, 500 was quickly subscribed, leaving
balance of only $500, with many
good friends to hear from.
No doubt this sum will soon be
promised and paid, thereby leaving
the church free and unincumbered to
commence the work anew for Him in
whose name it was dedicated.
