BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY.
Big Crush at Martin s Hoerr's Open
ing Today.
morrow.

Martin & Hoerr's jewelry store was
the center of attraction for the ladies
today. 1t was the Christmas opening,
and the store was crowded from morn
ing until evening. Each lady received
as a souvenir of the occasion pretty
pink or white carnation. A music box
gave forth some fine selections, and the
occasion was great success.
The stock is the largest and finest
which this enterprising firm has yet
offered, and includes everything that IS
late and novel. The big side board dis
play of cut glass is one of the most at
tractive features and certainly presents
beautiful sight. The stock of parlor
lamps of new designs is complete; the
completeness of the stock of hand
painted china, solid silver novelties,
sterling silver brushes and combs, UNI
brellas, ETC., leaves nothing to be de-
sired. The stock of mantel clocks can
not be surpassed.
Those who are looking for Christmas
presents that will always be priced for
their value and utility as well as beauty
should not fail to visit Martin q Hoerr.
The big stock contains thousand and
one novelties, which the proprietors
and force of lady clerks will take
pleasure in exhibiting.

TAMPERED WITH.
Miscreants Break Into Government Mail
Boxes.

The government mail boxes at the
cor ner of Spruce street and Third
avenue and at the corner of Lafayette
and Broad streets were found by the
carrier last evening to have been
tampered with. The lock on one was
pried open and the latch broken, so
that the box could be gotten into.
Whether any mail was taken from
this box or not is unknown, but the
chances are that some was taken.
The carrier found no mail, although
il was the Sunday and Monday col
lection, and the box is very seldom
found empty on any collection.
The lock was carried away from
the other box. Two letters were
found in this box, and it is not be-
lieved that any mail was stolen from
it.
1t is a penetentiary offense to tam
per with the mail boxes in this man
ner. If any one has knowledge OF
who did it he should report to the
city postoff1ce officials of the &C.
currepce.

THE FINAL SUr1r1ONS.
Frank r. Marston Falls a Victim of
Typhoid Fever.

The death early last evening at the
Security flats of Frank r. Marston
cast a gloom over the friends of the
family of the deceased. He was taken
sick on the day after Thanksgiving
and gradually failed until death came
to relieve him of his sufferings. His
disease was diagnosed by the attend
ing physician as typhoid fever, and
for the past day or two he had been
very low.
The deceased was aged II years,
eight months and nineteen days. He
was born at Lake Crystal and that
village had been his home except dur
ing the past two or three winters,
when his parents. Mr.. and Mrs. VIM
Marston, have taken up their abode
in Mankato in order to give their
sons the advantages of the local
schools. Frank was attending the
high school this year, and was also
making progress in musical studies.
LIZ was q ~ ohu yoUhS
man, and was the idol of his family.
His untimely death is severe affiic-
tion to the home circle, who will have
the sympathy of their many friends,
both in Mankato and Lake Crystal.
Frank was the youngest son and one
brother and two sisters survive him.
The remains will be taken to Lake
Crystal tomorrow noon, for burial
The class of which Frank Marston
was a member, the G class of the high
school, met at nine o'clock this morn
ing, and was afterwards joined by the
entire high school. Committees on
flowers and resolutions were appoint
ed, and the class and teachers will at
tend the funeral in body. The high
school teachers will also make floral
tribute.
