Association Day.
REV. MATHEW GLEASON

At the Storm Lake, Iowa, state Sun
day school convention the second Sun
day in October, being October 10th, was
selected as association day, this day to
be set apart and made prominent
throughout the state, emphasizing and
bringing before each Sunday school the
Importance of state work, each pastor
being asked to preach upon Sunday
school work that day. A special order of
exercises is to be distributed to the sec
rotary of each county and by them dis
tributed to the superintendent of the
different Sunday schools. All Sunday
schools are urged to make the offering
as large as possible on this day as this
collection goes to the county and state
association. This will be the plan of
raising the funds for county and state
work throughout the state to apply on
pledges made to the state association
and to carry on the work in the county.
I have mailed programs to forty two
Sunday school superintendent in this
county and still have more if they are
needed. I trust every Sunday school
superintendent of Audubon county will
observe association day as requested by
the state association. All collections
should be sent to the county treasurer,

KICKS HERE AGAIN.
The Window. ,Smasher Comes in on
the Afternoon Train.

Maria Kicks, the window smaSher,
is in the city again. She came in over
the G. & N. w. road at 1925 p. M,
and the police wereIat once telephon-
ed for and took her to the city hall,
where her ugly mug and ugly temper
were displayed this afternoon. She
said that the Rochester authorities
sent her to Waseca, and the police
there got her ticket for Mankato.
Chief Yates was in quandary as to
what to do with the unwelcome visit
or, but concluded that it would be
cheapest to purchase her ticket to
some station further west, as she wants
to go to Sioux City. If he allowed
her to wander on the streets, she
would be sure to break windows in Or
der to be arrested and supported at
public expense. This would also
cause dissatisfaction on the part of
the person whose windows were
broken.
Kicks is a habitual criminal, and
does not dare set foot in Wisconsin,
where the authorities have found a
law whereby she can be sent to prison
for three years. Experts there have
recently thoroughly examined her as
to her sanity and found her to be all
right mentally. She sponges livingby
a method all her own-one of intimida-
tion. She seldom breaks windows,
except to keep up her reputation and
secure free board and free transporta-
tion. She will undoubtedly be sent
off on a train tonight.

SUIT FOR DAMAGES.
A Ditch Through Gottfried StrobePs
Land Causes Trouble.

Gottfried Strobel, farmer living
in Mankato township, has brought an
action for trespass against George
Schultz, chairman of the board of su-
perviSorS of that town, and Frank
Wenner, workman in the employ OF
Mr.. Schultz. 1t is the contention OF
the town board that there was ditch
in former wet seasons running
through Mr.. StrObel's farm to drain
the land above it. Mr.. Strobel de-
MES that there is ditch, and ploWed
over the place where it is claimed to
be. The subject has been matter
of controversy for some time, and on
July 10th last Mr.. Schultz, assisted
by Wenner, started to clean out the
ditch. The result is this suit. Mr..
Strobel claims that the defenda ITS
turned water on his land, doing dam
age to the extent of 5000, and be asks
to be reimbursed that amount.
Attorneys Pau & Pau and Lorin
Cray appear for Mr.. Strobel, Thomas
and Evan Hughes for Mr.. Schultz,
and w. E. Young for Mr.. Wenner.

day and Goods Taken.

The store of VIM. Just, at Rapidan,
was broken into by burglars Thursday
and quantity of goods stolen. Among
the articles taken were some knives,
tobacco, etc. The robbery was dis
covered this morning. and was at once
reported to the police of this city and
to the sheriff The latter drove out
to look the ground over.
Yesterday afternoon two suspicious
looking characters purchased tickets
at the Milwaukee depot for Rapidan,
and later wanted their money back, as
they said they had decided to 60 by
team. The police believe that these
parties may be the ones who did the
breaking in, and are on the lookout
for them. Aside from this there is
no clue.
