OLD RESIDENT DIES
Rev. Edwin Rogers Passes
Away in Utah.
Remains Will be Brought to This
City Friday for Burial at His
Old Home.

Capt. L. N. Holmes received a tele-
gram Tuesday afternoon from Ogden,
Utah, announcing the death there of
Rev. Edwin Rogers. The latter had
been failing for some three weeks, and
his death. while surprise and source
of sadness to all Of his friends and ac-
quaintances here, was not entirely I'M
expected by those gathered about
him.
Mr.. Rogers was an old resident OF
Blue Earth county. and served as
county superintendent of school for
two terms He was for number of
years pastor of the Christian church,
and also taught school for number Of
terms. He resided on the ST. Clair
road, a mile or two from the city, but
moved to Ogden some ten years ago
for the benefit of his health.
The remains will be brought to
Mankato for burial, being shipped
from Ogden tonight, and will prob
ably arrive Friday afternoon. They
will be taken to the Christian church,
and it is likely that services will be
held there, but further announcement
concerning this will be made.
Mr.. Rogers leaves a wife and two
daughters to mourn the loss of kind
husband and indulgent parent. He
was loved by all who knew him, for
his many excellent qualities and up
Brightness of character. His acquaint-
ance was a wide one in the county,
and as an official and citizen he full
filled every duty imposed upon him
with the strictest integrity.

A BUMPER CROP.

The Chicago Post in commenting
upon crop conditions says: .-t
According to reports received by
railway companies and business men
the largest wheat crop in the history
Of the United States will be harvested
within fortnight. The winter wheat
yield, which aggregates from 375,00O,-
900 bushels to 400,O00,00O bushels will
be increased to the extent of nearly
$4,000, 900 bushels from the spring
wheat region. The bumper crop Of
1891 will be eclipsed this year by 1OO,-
100000 bushels from present indica-
tiOns"
Continuing the Post further says:
reports received from members of
the national association of merchants
and travellers, who are assembling
here today to attend the fall meet
ing, afford positive proof, it is de-
clared, that new era of prosperity is
at hand throughout the great west.
Railroad officials who have just come
in from extended trips through the
spring wheat and corn growing states
make equally optimistic reports"
There is no question but that the
wheat crop now being harvested will
be the greatest in the history of the
country, but there is likely to be quite
shrinkage from the estimates as to
it's size, as is always the case. The
threshing machine will reveal many
poor yields where a good sized one was
expected, so cutting down the grand
total. On the other hand there will
doubtless be many fields that will
yield better than expected. The best
thing in connection with the good
crop is the indication that the farmers
are going to realize fair price for it..

WEDDING BELLS.
Account of the Barr-JOneS Nu-
pitfalls from a Yakima Paper.

e (From the Yakima, WASH, Herald.)
A quiet wedding took place at St..
Michael's church on Tuesday, Aug.
2, when Miss Margaret T. Barr, of
Minneapolis, Mimi, was united in
marriage to Richard Sake Jones, OF
Seattle, Wash. Rev. Hamilton M.
Bartlett officiated and the usual cere-
mony of the Episcopal church was re-
peated in the presence of a few
friends. There were no invitations
issued and no announcements.
Miss Barr is sister of Senator Geo.
T. Barr, of Minnesota, and OF Prof.
John Barr, of Cornell University. She
has been for several years past state
instructor in Kindergarten work at
Mankato, Minnn. Mr.. Jones is well
known here as an attorney and as the
brother of Mrs Frank L. Wheeler
His two sisters, Mrs. Wheeler and
Miss Isabel Jones, were both present,
as was his son, r. S. Jones, Jr. The
groom is a son of former Chief Justice
Jones, of this state, and a member OF
the law firm of Brjnker. Jones x
Richards, of Seattle.
The wedding was simple, plain and
perfect in every way. After the con
clusion of the ceremony, the bridal
party drove to the home Of Mrs. Frank
Wheeler, of Friutvale ranch, where
they were entertained until the train
left for the west. Then Mr.. and Mrs
Jones departed for their home in
Seattle.
We assure the happy couple of the
best wishes of all their North Yakima
friends and hope that they will visit
us soon and often.

CHARTER REVISION
Commission Gets Down to Hard
Work.
Increase in the Number of Aldermen
Meets With Approval OF
Members.

The charter revision commission
meeting Monday was ATTENDED by
all but three Of the members. Inc
subject was 6alked over at consider
able length in a general way. The
suggestions of the board OF trade
were received and placed on Tile, and
the question of increasing the num-
her of aldermen met with general
favor. but no conclusion was reached
as to the manner in which the add
tional aldermen should be elected.
90. Pitcher and J. G. Wise were
appointed committee to prepare an
outline of the first four chapters OF
the new charter. Advance sheets
will be furnished the members so that
the latter may think over the propos-
ed changes, aud then a meeting VIII
be called to act upon the report. LII
is thought that meeting can be hello
in two weeks. The first four chap
tiers of the charter take up the city
and ward boundaries, city officers and
their duties, elections, and the powers
of the council. 1t will be seen that
the next meeting Of the commission
will be an important one.
After the first four chapter are dis
posed of, it is proposed to refer
other chapters to committee, and
keep on in this way until the charter
shall be completed. Some OF the
members thought that it would be
better to have different committees
working on various parts of the char
ter at the same time, but this was
over ruled by the majority.

GOT NO THANKS.
County Commissioner Graf Scored by
an lrate Female.

County Commissioner Graf was
called upon some time ago by lady
who lives in the north part of the
city and who desired the county to
assist her to go to Chicago. She had
conducted a boarding house there
during the worlds fair, and her furni
ture was to be sold on foreclosure on
mortgage, and she desired to be
there to save what she could, tut had
no means of getting ticket. She was
referred to the city officials, ana
transportation was finally secured
for her. She went TO Chicago,
and returned with some OF her furnl-
ture. She sought Mr.. Graf again last
evening and asked further aid, claim
ing to be sick. Mr.. Graf came to the
conclusion that if she was able to
maintain furniture and other luxur-
les in one or two houses she was not
entitled to further aid at present.
However, he told her that If she would
get a written statement from Drs.
Davis and Harrington to the effect
that she needs aid he would assist her.
Mr.. Graf says that he was then sub
iected to as severe scoring
from this woman as he ever
listened to. She was to return with
the statement at seven o'clock, but so
far as he knows she did not put in an
appearance again.
Mr.. Graf is careful with the county
funds, and makes d personal investi
cation of every case where aid from
the county is requested.
