Takes an Appeal.

ROyalton Banner: Z. w. BOuke's
attachment suit against Robert
Lutes came up before Judge Searle
at Little Falls Monday and the
Judge dissolved the attachment. Mr..
Bouke has appealed to the supreme
court. This is an important case
and involves about $4,000 worth OF
property. Mr.. Douke has q claim
against Lutes of $3.50 and secured a
writ OF attachment on the ground
that "Lutes had disposed III or was
about to, dispose OF his property
with intent to deiraud and delay
hin creditors" hut 1t seems he failed
to establish that point to the Hatls
faction of the Judge. ii All oi Lutes
property not exempt was attached
including his houses, stock, farm
machinery and grain. Other parties
hold mortgages on much Of the at
tached property and are fighting TIT
attachment.

Water Power Control.

Dnluth Herald: A rather seEsa-

came to The Evening Herald today.
There was no way to confirm 1t and
it is given for what it is worth. An
attorney from out OF town, whose
name cannot be given, was IN the
city yesterday. He was driven
about town by a we'll known citizen
and in the course of his ride talked
freely concerning the st. Louis river
water mower, In which he has been
interested for long time. He said
he had lust received a letter from Jay
Cooke. written only three days ago.
in which he stated that the deal 1or
the sale Of the property to an'EnRhsh
syndicate that sometime ago pro
cured an option on it had been Clos

Boom COMPANY Is FILLING THE RIVER
WITH LOGS AGAIN THIS FALL AND
MORE TROUBLE is IN STORE
FOR THE SPRING..

Aid. Geo. w. Stewart returned
from Little Falls yesterday anu re-
ports that the Boom company IL pur-
suing the same tactics with respect
to the driving Of logs this fall as last,
It will he remembered that st. ClOui
people attempted to have thelegisla-
ture take some means to control the
driving of logs, or at least their sale
storage during the winter, that they
might do no damage to property on
the river when ice went out In the
spring. Through the fact that men,
bers from other towns who were as
much interested as st. Cloud, but APP
peared Indifferent to.the passage OF
any measure regulating the driving,
the measure failed. Last year 1t
cost the city some hundreds OF dollars
to clean the Ice and logs out Of the
mill pond. and indications are that
the same trouble will be experienced
next spring. MIR. Stewart states that
the logs are being run over the dam
at Little Falls very rapidly and that
though driving crew has JUST
brought down d drive from Little
Falls that the river between st.
Cloud and that point Is again filed
with them.
The article calls attention to the
fact that logs are still being turned
over the dam at Little Falls. al
though the Boom company has
made it's last drive. This proceeding
is necessary to the operation Of the
mills at Little Falls, and to prevent
the sorting of logs here, and the
turning over the dam, OF the down
river logs, would prevent the rum
ming OF the mills. The logs that are
now being turned" over the dam
could not be pocketed SO that they
would not go down with the high
water in the spring. The great and
Important industry of laundering has
some rights on the river, and I'M
provements on the river should he
constructed with a view to the usual
and necessary use OF the river In
driving logs. The mills on the river
cannot be expected to remain idle In
the spring till logs can be brought
down from above Brainerd. or to
close down in the fall in time to al
low the safe pocketing Of all logs
turned out of booms in the necessary
sorting. st. Cloud has asked for un'
reasonable and unfair regulations in
the matter of driving and storing
logs and If the proposed new saw
mill ia built there the community
will very soon feel the need OF con-
tinuing about the present system OF
handling logs on the Mississippi.

A BATH OF MUD.
How a COachman's Gorgeous Raj
ment Was Bespattered.
His Compla mt and III. Discovery That
Follow 1t.

A few days ago coachman sat on the
box uf 4 stylish carriage and gazed down
with mn air of commiseration on those
about him, apparently not having quite
so much of the tat OF the land as himself
1t was that interval when pride goeth Se-
fore fall. be had on spotless buff
coat, adorned with boutonniere AMI big
BUTTONS. His hat shed the sheen of the
setting sun and he poised his whip with
aristocracy or royalty.
Was he thinking Of himself? Yes be-
fore and after taking.
Just In front was an illkept specimen
of humanity driving big horse attached
to a heavy dray. Suddenly column of
mud shot in the air sbebind the dray and
struck the gorgeous coachman full IN the
chest.
He was sight. His buff coat looked
like map of Market square with strips
of mud representing the lines of tho new
retaining wall along South Water street.
The gloss of the plug hat was disturbed
and the lightning change was complete.
The coachman drove the carriage up TO
the curb In ont of citv hall, and then
he visit d he commissioner of public
against the mud and seemed to be grieved
that a city like this should have so much
of the stuff lying loose in Dorrance street
The coat bore testimony enough that mud
was thick somewhere and workmen OF
the highway wero sent out TO investigate
The matter was easily explained after
the experts got To work. They found that
the stringers on which the street rails
are laid in Dorrance street had sbrunk
considerably aud t1ot in many places the
rails were about anlnch above the string
ers This permitted the mud TO accumu-
Inte under the rails. The driver OF the
dray had turned his big horse to get the
wheels out OF the groove ana the heavy
animal struck n lose rail. Presto; the
steel 'sauashed" into the mud and IL
flew up against the coschman's button
hule bouquet and buff coat
he condition of the tracks was report
ed To the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad officials, anu yesterday
morning workmen began the task Of re-
pairing, and that is the reason why Dor
rance street was torn up in the centre
sunday " ornipg, and also the reason
that tho street is not fully in commission
toray; and also the reason that mum ber
of dump cars filled with coal are stalled
almost in the centre OF the town
