WAGGONER BOUND OVER.
He Refuses to Say Anything More About
His Case.

Claud M. Waggoner, who passed
forged checks on i've or six mer.
chants last Saturday evening, recei "
ing goods and money in exchange,
was to have had his hearing at ten
o'clock Saturday noon. He appeared
in court at that hour, and his at tor
ney, S. B. Wilson, announced that he
would waive an examination. Judge
Shissler bound him over to the dis.
trict court in the sum of $500, and he
was remanded back to jail.
Waggoner was not very communica-
tive. and would not say whether
there was sixth check passed, as is
generally believed. He neither de.
MED or affirmed it. The only thing
that he would say was that he is be-
ing well treated at the Jail, and that
everything is neat and clean there
and the food good. He would not
say whether he expected to get bail.
He is still penitent over his acts.

and 500 o'clock, while number Of
teams were passing along Broad
street near Rock at the time of the
fire alarm, Mrs. A. L. Schumac her
was standing in the middle of the
street talking with some neighbors,
the teams passing to the right and
left Of them. Suddenly Mrs. Schu-
macher turned around and walked d.
rectly against DR., Brandenburg's
team, which was just passing the
group. She was knocked down, but
the horses jumped over her, the
wheels passing over the lower part of
her limbs. Or. Brandenburg had her
carried into her home at once and
after careful examination found no
bones broken. An hour later she was
sitting up in her chair and next.morn-

large number Of people witnessed the

SUGAR BEETS.
They are Going Forward by the
Carload.
Farmers as q Rule are wel Pleased
with their Returns on their
LabOr.

Sugar beets raised in this county are
being rapidly shipped to ST. Louis Park
where the sugar factory is located.
Already eight or ten carloads have been
sent on, and fifteen or twenty are to go.
Three carloads were shipped Tues
day morning. This gives some idea of
what could be done if factory were to
be located in Mankato.
The greater part of the farmers are
well satisfied with the returns
received for their labor. One
farmer secured yield of twenty-five
tons to the acre, and expected to get
about So 20 ton in this city. He
said that it was no more trouble or
cost to raise the beets than to raise
corn, while the profit is several times
greater. In one or two instances, dis
couraging reports are given, and the
farmers said that they would not
raise the beets again. On the whole,
however, those who have experiment.
ed with them are we'll pleased, and
the beets will bring considerable
money into the county. Steps should
now be taken to see about factory
for next year.
