Rev. Dr. Marks of Hanover Prcsbyter-

vailing in country, and cites the suflerings
which occurred in ancient times. Prayer
is certainly great puuacea for many evils
inasmuch us those who pray are presumed
to be temperate, industrious and law abid
ing The evils which now atflict our couu
try are not prOvidential, but are attributed
to unwise legislation. The country indeed
has been specially blest, the crops Of grain
and fruit have been abundant, the rain has
fallen on the unjust rs well as on the Just
che summers have been pleasant, and the
winters health inspiring, and whatever
evils exist come from dGmagOgical law
makers who have robbed industry of en-.
ployment and despoilcd labor of Is proper

LAUDABLE ENTERPRISE.

The November issue of DeLestry's
Western Magazine, just at hand, con-
talns an account of MankatO from
every point of view. 1t is profusely
illustrated with twenty-four engrav
ings and covers the growth of Manka-
to from the hamlet to the prosperous
city. The illustrations comprise al!
OF the most prominent public build
ings and churches, with remarkably
clever portraits, drawn in pen and
ink. of some of our foremost citizens.
The enterprise displayed by this
publication in writing and publishing
SO elaborate an article is highly CON
mendable, particularly in view of the
fact that the ordinary "write-up'
methods were not employed, and il il
to be hoped that citiz.ns of Mankat'
will buy at least enough copies tt
reimburse the publishers for their
outlay, which was made without a
guarantee of any kind.
Mr.. JOnn Story is in the city rep
resentng the magazine and will Cal
upon our citizens, and we bespeak fol
him a generous reception.

FORTNIGHTLY CLUB.
The Greek Period Under Consideration
Last Evening,

The Fortnightly Club held meet
ing at w. d. Wizards residence last
evening, and the subject under con-
Sideration was the Greek period. Mr..
willard gave talk on "AsSyria" DR..
g. II. Rowe gave talk on Homer's
Had and gave short readings froiu it.
Miss Minnie McGraw rea paper
on the work of DR.. Schlieman, giving
an account of his excavations at Troy
and other ancient cities.
An interesting discussion followed.
in which comparison was made of
the Grecian and modern methods of
the treatment of detectives. The
general sentiment of the members OF
the club was that modern altruistic
tendencies will not admit of the
Grecian practice of exposing the weak
children. 1t was thought that more
attention should be paid to the pre-
vention of detectives.
The next meeting will be held Dec.
14th, and the subject will be con.
tnuation Of the work of the Greek
period.

The strip containing the maker's
name was torn from the coat. Mantle

alike.

Fred Mantle was arraigned this
forenoon in the municipal court on
warrant sworn OUT by Mr.. Day, charg-
ing him with grand larceny in the
second degree in stealing a suit of

but as he could not furnish it he was
committed to Jail.
No one has yet appeared to claim
the SUIT of clothes which Mr.. Fuller's
barber purchased Of Mantle.
Those who have worked with
Mantle have little doubt that he is
slightly unbalanced, mentally. He
appears dazpd, and when it was sug'
gested by Free Press reporter that
it appeared as though he was 10 bad
fix, he replied: 81 should say it does.

BAD ACCIDENT.
John Carl Loses an Arm and
Leg.
Was Struck by an Omaha Freight
Engine this Forenoon While Walk
ing on the Track.

John Carl. who resides with his
parents at Gil North Fourth street,
m with a fearful accident at nine
o'clock this forenoon, while walking
along the Omaha track, just north of
Rock street. He was walking south,
and freight engine came backing
down south on the track. Engineer
White whistled and rung his bell,
but Carl did not hear it, or if he did
hear it. thought that the engine was
on another track. When he did not
get off, Engineer White tried to stop
his engine, but the distance was too
small, and he failed to do so in time.
Carl was struck by the tende, thrown
down and run over. His right arm
and left leg we're so badly mangled by
the wheels that it was found neces-
sary to amputate them this afternoon
Carl was taken to TnurtellOtte hoSpit-
al. after physicians had been summon
ed to attend his injuries. He did not
lose consciousness at any time, and
did not attach any blame to the rail-
road company in his statement of the
affair.
Engineer White will make no state
ment, further than that it was
one of those accidents that cannot be
foreseen No one else saw the acct
dent.
Drs Andrews, assisted by Drs. Har-
rington and Davis. performed the am
putatiOns this afternoon.
Mr. Carl is % years Of age, and is
one of twin brothers. There are four
brothers in ell, and they faImed it
last year; John has been doing days
labor during the fall. He is highly
respected by all, and the accident
which has befallen him is regretted
| by all.

Gold Watch Recovered.

In Manthe's valise was found gold
watch and chain, which was last even
ing identified by John Larson, night
clerk at the Clifton House, as his.
The watch was stolen one night from
Larson's loom, while his rUOm-mate
was there. A fire alarm had sounded
and Larson had gone out. His room
mate heard some one come in, get tue
watch, and GO out, but thought that
it was Larson, and paid no attention
to it. This was two or three months
ago, and the police say that Mantle
stopped at the Clifton House two
nights about that time.
Mantle says that six weeks ago man
named Parsons, from Iowa, had come
to him and said that he was hard up
and wanted to borrow SIS and leave
the watch as security. Mantle says
that he loaned the man the money
but that Parsons has never called for
the watch. He denies having stolen it,.

Manthe's Movements.

Mantle stated to Free Press re-
porter this morning that he mas no
home and no parents He has resided
in Mankato three years, and worked
for two years in the Union Laundry.
and at the Exchange Laundry the
past two weeks. He has been
boarding at Herman Albert's, but lett
there ten days ago and went to the
Sontag Hotel. He called at the city
hall a week ago Sunday and asked the
police to help him get his trunk from
Mr.. Albert's, saying that the latter
held it for So claimed to be due.
The way that Mantle came to be
arrested was this. He had stayed at
the Sontag Hotel for week, and Mr..
Foss, the proprietor. suspected him
of the thefts from the other boarders.
Mr.. Reddington, whose coat was stolen
last week, was told by Mantle yester-
day that the latter had left his valise
at the laundry. Yesterday morning,
Mantle had left the SOntsg Hotel and
gone to the Stahl House. paid weeks
board and lodging in advance and
CHI ecked his valise there. His state
ment to Mr. ReddingtOn was investi-
gated and found to be false, and the
matter was then placed in Officer
Kelley's hands. The officer found
that Mantle, instead of going to the
Stahl House, had gone back to the
Sontsg Hotel, had supper and gone to
bed. His little dodge of registering
at the Stahl House and leaving his
valise there was evidently intended
| to mislead people.
Officer Kelley went to Manthe's
room and was admitted. Mantle was
10 be d, and Reddington's coat was on
the bed, and Manthe's photograph
was found in one of the pockets.
Mantle claimed to the officer that he
had found the coat hanging up in the
room. He did not explain how his
photograph happened to be in the
| pOChSO.
Mantle is about 25 years of age anC
is of mild manners. He is said to have
registered at different hotels under
di fferent names, but he denies this
The police officers claim that he ha'
| gone under four names since coming
to the city. Some of the other cloth
ing found in his trunk, aside from
that already mentioned, is believed tt
have been stolen. There is a nearly
new striped pair of pants which h
claims to have bought at Ceda
Rapids, Iowa, three years ago.
Mr. Day swore out complain
charging Mantle with grand larcen.
in the second degree.
