A MOUSE STORY
In Which Once President Hayes Is
the Economical Hero.

In Which Once President Hayes Ii
the Economical Hero.
From the New York Times.
A story that used to be told about Ruth
erford B. Hayes is recalled by the govern
ment's decision as to what it will do with
the spaniards now at Santiago. 1t is re-
lated that one day Mrs. Hayes heard
noise in her pantry. and that, after
of the noise to be a mouse in the flour bar
rel The case was one for masculine settle
ment. and in some excitement she appealed
to Mr.. Hayes for assistance. Like a good
husband he first Gained her natural ter
rors, and then like brave man he entered
the pantry, removed the cover of the -four
barrel and. leaning over, caught the mouse
by the tail. He was about to throw the lit
tie animal out of the window when he
ticed that It's fury coat was thickly COW
cred with -four. Now. -four costs money, and
willful waste makes woeful want Realiz-
ing these facts, the Ohio statesman re-
strained the hand that was to do the throw
ing until few gentle taps from finger on
the other hand had caused the flour on the
mouse to fall back into the barrel. rural
Democrat who heard of this adventure ex-
claimed: "A man as humane as that. and
yet as economical that, gets my vote!"
Whether the return CT the Spanish soldiers
to their home will will not win Demo-
cratic votes for President Mckinley at the
next election Is question requiring no i'm
mediate answer, but the treatment Of our
prisoners is certainly both humane and eco
nomical.

On the floor of the great f1agroom in tba

attentfon-the flag in which John Wilkes
Booth caught his foot as he jumped on to the
stage at Ford's theeter on the night when
he shot President Lincoln. The flag had
made history even before the tragic scenes of
the assas sinaton. 1t was made by the women
employed in the treasury department. at the
time when the male employees organized to de-
fend the capital from the raids Of Jubal Early.
The women presented the flag to the treasury
guard. Two nights before the as=assna alton
the treasury guard gave an entertainment at
Fords theater and the flag was emoloyed
in The decoration of the box on the right of
the stage. 1t looked so pretty that the man

had been announced for the evening of April

time They swarmed upon the boat
decks until the captains were afraid
to take any more, and they were carried
to the western shore Of the lake, where
they found dancing pavilions and brass
bands and other attractions Those
who did not care to dance were able
to roam about the woods on the bluff
or take steamer trips to Lake City and
Red Wing. A great many awaited
themselves of this chance, and during
the day the steamers made two trips
to those places.
IN the afternoon a game of base
ball Wac played by the ST. Paul and the
Minneapolis railway clerks teams. The
result OF the game was a victory for
Minneapolis, the score being 2 to q
There was much disappointment on the
part of the st. Paul men, but they
swallowed their chagrin.

when 1t made its second trip for the 7

a great many of the picnickers re-
manned behind and took passage on the
steamers. which left the picnic grounds
at 1890 o'clock. The boats will arrive
at st. Paul about 10 o'clock this morn
ing.
Every detail of the picnic was looked
after ana during the day there was not
a. thlng that required special attention
There never was an affair of the kind
in this city which was so we'll managed
Every general office in the city was
closed yesterday and very few freight
shipments were made by the jobbers,
who had promised to further the in
terests Of the picnic as well as they
could. In railway and jobbing circles
the day was a holiday, so far as active
business was concerned.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-08-07

The greatest picnic ever held in the
state of Minnesota was that Of the
railway clerks, which was given at
Frontenac yesterday. More than $500
persons attended 1t. They went to the
picnic grounds by train and steamer,
and so we'll were the details worked
out beforehand that there was not a
hitch or an accident of any kind dur
ing the entire day.
The steamers Henrietta and VERNE
Mac and the two barges, which started
for the picnic grounds Friday night,
carried about 300 picnicers Of both sex
eS who did not care for the absence OF
orchestras, but were bound to have a
good time all the same. And though
the weather was exceedingly unpro-
pitious yesterday morning, hundreds
were at the union depot to take the
special trains which went to Maiden
Rock i'm the morning.
To the surprise Of every one In
charge of the arrangements for the
picnic, the train which left the union
depot at 1880 a. m. on the Burlington
road carried 2S7 passengers for the
grounds. The regular train which left
at s:15 took only forty-five passengers
for Maiden Rock, but the 9 o'clock spe-
cial was crowded. The union depot
seemed too small to contain the num-
Der Of picnicers who wanted to go on
that train. 1t was composed Of eight
cen cars, and the total number of pas
sengers carried by it was 1.O2O from this
city and 1872 from Minneapolis.
The special train which left the union
depot at 1:3O p. m. was made up OF
eighteen coaches, and it carried 500
passengers from the Twin Cities.
The total number carried by the
trains was 1888, to which is to be add
ed those who went by boat from this
city and Minneapolis and those Who
went from Red Wing and Lake City.
In all, forty-six railway coaches were
used for the picnic. They were con-
tributed by the several lines centerlne
in this city and Minneapolis.
There were three specials. The first
was in charge Of Conductor F. MCCAIN
bridge and Engineer G. G. King. The
second was manned by Conductor +. A
Mitchell and Engineer N. A. Gray. The
third was run by Conductor F. II. Heth
and Engineer q. w. Sims.
Capt. Durant was in command of the
!; Henrietta, which carried the ST. Paul
crowd to the picnic grounds. The Hen
rietta left this city at $50 Friday night
and did not arrive at Frontenac until
a. M yesterday. The trip down the
river was a gloomy and wet one. Il
rained all night, and the picnickers
had dismal time of 1t, but when they
arrived at the picnic grounds, the Sky
cleared, and during the rest Of the day
the sun shone brightly.
Those who left the city yesterday
morning expecting to find disagreeable
conditions prevailing at Frontenac Were
agreeably disappointed. They found
the weather very good and improving
every hour, and they were encouraged
to believe THAT the picnic would not
prove such a failure after all. And
they were right. AS the successive
train loads Of passengers landed al
, Maiden Rock and were conveyed across
the lake to F'rontenac, it was evident
they were all bent on having a good

PEELED by the Finding 0fdHls $I65,

keeper--Drowned Man Was a
Patient mt Bethesda Hospital.

The body of Charles Nelson, found
in the river at the foot of jackson
street Friday, was yesterday positively
identified by e. A. Mous5eau. propre-
tor Of a hotel at 400 Central avenue,
Minneapolis. Mr.. Mosseau has In his
possession certificate Of deposit for
the money Nelson was known to pos
sess, this fact doing away with the
theory that Nelson was murdered for
money he was supposed to have with
him. Nelson was in i'll health and was
threatened with the loss of his eye
sight. 1t is generally believed by his
friends that he became Respondent
over his physical ailments and Jumped
into the river
Nelson formerly lived at Mountain
Iron, as was supposed from the letters
found on the body. While in Minneap-
oils he boarded at Mousseau's hotel
and left a certificate Of deposit for $165
with the proprietor. Last Sunday he
came to this city and went to the Be-
thesda hospital to have his eyes treat
ed. He left the hospital Monday and
did not return. Nelson was so nearly
blind that he sometimes had to be
guided about the streets, and 1t is be-
lieved possible by some that he may
have unknowingly walked into the riv-
er. The body was buried yesterday aft
erNoon by Mccarthy & Donnelly, upon
an order from the health department.
Nelson surely did not commit sui
eide because Of poverty, for he Is the
owner Of 500 acres Of land in Louisiana,
and Mousseau holds a certificate Of de-
post for $165 that was handed to him
by Nelson the last time he saw him
alive Mousseau put in an appearance
in the probate court and asked to have
Coroner Nelson made administrator for
the dead man.
Mousseau says that the dead man
was a miner. and that he recently came
from the Iron Range. Last Sunday
morning Nelson was brought to Nous
seau's house by a Minneapolis police
nan and left there. The man had been
horribly nnisused, one of his eyes being
apparently torn out and the other
closed up He was weak from loss Of
blood Mousseau took Nelson to DR..
Topper, and was advised to take him
to the Bethesda hospital in st. Paul.
He brought Nelson over and. left him
at the hospital Before he left Nelson
handed him the deed to 9the Louisiana
property and the certificate Of deposit.
That same afternoon Nelson left the
hospital and was not again seen alive.
The police have been notified that
brother Of Nelson's will be here today
or tomorrow, and the affair will be
thoroughly investigated -
