It Is Just as Important,

That you enrich and purify your blood in the Fall as in the Spring At this time, owing to decaying vegetation, a low water level, and other causes, there ara disease germs all about ns, and a weak and facilitated system quickly yields to att cks of malaria, levers, etc. By purifying and enriching your blood with Hoods Sarsaparilla you may build up your system to resist these dangers, as we'll as coughs, colds, pneumonia and the grip which come with colder weather. To be on the safe slde, take Hoods Sarsaparilla now, and always be sure it is Hoods and not something represented to be "just as good"

THERE Is 4 HELL.

Hell is not confined alone to the neither regions as will be seen by the following, which was handed us by Dr Cotter and discovered by 8 friend of bis who has travelled the part of country herein described He says: Having just returned from trip along the Rio Grande l intended te write few words about this desolate region but the follew- ing poetry given me by a local poet in San Antonio fully fills the bill and has nay entire spproval:" The Devil in Hell we are told was chained, A thousand years he there remained. He did not complain, nor did hs groan, But determined to have hell of his own Where he could torment the souls of men Without heiug chained in prison pen. So he asked the Lord If he had on hand Anything left when he made this laud. The Lord said. "Yes, have plenty on hand, But it is down in Texas on the Rio Grande, In fact, old boy, the stuff is so poor dent think you can usa it for Hell any nore.' The Devil went down to look ct the truck, But said if he got it as gift he was stuck, So in order to getthe truck of his hands Tde Lord promised the Devil to water his lands. He had some water, it was of on use Twas the Rio Gra2de and sunk like Ohe deuce. The trade was made, the decd was given And the Lord went back to his Seat in Heaven. Tine Devil says to himself, 'Now have all that ii
 needed
 To make good He'll" and you bet he succeeded He put thorns on all the trees.
 He filled up the sand with millions feas, Scattered taraHtulas along the road, Put thorns CD the cscti, and horns on the toad, The rattlesnake bites, the scorpion sIings, Mosquitoes delight you with their buzzng wings, The heat in t summer Is one hundred and ten, Too hot for the Devil, too hot for his men, He filled up the mud with millions of ants, That when you sit down you need solss on you
 pants,
 He heightened the horns of the Texas steer, And built two additions to the Jack Rabbits ear, And She wild boar roams through ths black chap
 paral.
 Texss-was an ideal place-he got it for hell.

TAKING UP BONDS.
City Recorder Williams May Refuse
drafts on Road Fund.

City Recorder Williams has a plan to
take up some of the refunding bonds
that are to be issued Jan. LIST, instead
of floating the entire $12 900. He be
lieves that the money coming in on
special assessments, etc could properly
be turned into the sinking fund and
SO, 900 or "a, 900 of the bonds be paid off
Jan list, instead of being refunded and
drawing interest for another twenty
years. One obstacle to this would be
the question whether the successful
bidders on the bonds would be satisfied
to take less than the entire issue of
$12 900 at the price offered
Mr. Williams has another plan, and
that is to take some of the floating in.
debtedness with the special assessment
money and money derived from the
frontage tax on water mains. The
money was borrowed to pay for the i'm,
provements, the assessments for which
are now coming in, Some of the So, 00C

NO TRACE FOUND.
Belief Expressed That Doison will Re.
turn in Due Time.

Sheriff Gerlich and Chief Bruels re-
turned Friday from trip to Madelia
and CORTLAND and across country in
search of Mont B. Dolson, whose pro
longed absence from home has caused
some anxiety on the part of his family
Sensational rumors as to the cause of
his disappearance have been afoat, but
Chief Bruels is of the opinion that he is
at work on some. of the new railroads
or in some of the new towns on the
line of these railroads, and that he will
return to Mankato in due time. The
officers got no trace of him yesterday.
He is known to have several horses and
wagons, and had been at work in the
western part of the state during the
summer and fall. His family have not
heard from him for some, time, and
have felt that something may have be-
fallen him, and for this reason sought
the aid of the officials to locate him.
County Commissioner Paddock is
also of the belief that Dolson will re-
turn during the winter. There are sew
eral families of DoIsons, and the man
whose prolonged absence has occasioned
some speculation is known as being

For the first time in fifteen years, the

NAL school has gone astray. Itwas due
TO arrive Dec, 9Th but up to the present
time has not been heard from. 1t is for
about So, 100, and is being traced both
from ST. Paul and this city, at the sug-
gestion of the state auditor. 1t is sup
posed that it was misdirected. Director
Clark believes that there is no danger
of the delay extending more than few
days, and the teachers will no doubt re-
ceiye their pay in time to do their
Christmas shopping. The money will
be all the more appreciated when it
does come. ~. a .. t~ s-t- .'.a-.a 7@' 49,. ''

Judge Shissler heard motion to dis
miss argued Saturday in the case
of Lorenz Ohlinger VS.. John Collins.
The motion was made by the defend
ants attorney, G. o. Daley, on the
ground that the court had no jurisdic-
ton, as the defendant claims to have
purchased land under contract and that
the time of his payment was extended
and that therefore the case is an equity
one and should be brought in the dis
trict court. ! Collins purchased five and

$500 Nov. 1st, but did not have the
money, and claims that Olson gave him
a few days time. When he was ready
to make the payment, he found that
Olson had sold the land to Ohlinger.
The latter has brought suit to get pos
session of the land and Arthur Schaub

The Herald from Washington says: Il;
President Mckinley, during an inter
view with Senator Wellington, ex-
pressed himself in favor of reviving the
grade of vice admiral in the interest of
both Rear Admiral Sampson and Rear
Admiral Schley. He believes that this
is the simplest solution of the whole
Sampson-Schley controversy, and it is
expected that Senator Wellington will
introduce bill in few days providing
for the appointment of two vice ad-
mirals without specifying names. -
The president very plainly said that
if such bill became law he would
promptly nominate both Sampson and
Schley in the order named, This ar

ator Wellington believe, will meet the
approval of the majority of the friends

In TEN DAYS.
Regular Service on Mankato &

-.a-. u.ft.r.t terday. 49,. 81 D

A special train consisting of an en-
CINE and passenger coach made the trip
over the new Mankato & New Ulm
railroad yesterday afternoon, arriving
in this city from New Ulm at $50 p. M.
In the coach were Superintendent Can
tillion, General Agent Northmore and
II, L. Beecher, who is the @. q N. w.
agent at New Ulm. The officials ex-
pressed themselves as being we'll
pleased with the new road, and said
that regular service will be started over
it on Dec. 10th if the weather continues
favorable. In places the roadbed is
already in such good condition as to
permit of speed of twenty-five miles
an hour being made, and in other
places forty miles an hour. AS the
roadbed becomes firmer and smoother
from use, greater speed can be made.
A time table is in course of prepare
ton, but as it is being prepared on the
St. Peter division it will not be known
here for several days. But little change
will be made in the running time of
the through trains. They will come
through Mankato instead of being met
at Mankato junction by the stub train.
The st. Peter Herald of yesterday
says Several of the leading business
men of St. Peter are becoming inter
ested in the possible extention OF the
Great Western railway, of which there
is talk at present of extending from
Mankato to St. Cloud, by way of Glen
coe, During a recent visit of Mr.
Stickney to Mankato, he declared that
company proposed to eventually extend
its line north in the direction of ST.
Cloud. The natural course of such an
extension would be by way of st. Peter,
Int rather than take any chances the
business men here propose to submit a
few statistics to Mr. Stickney and at
the same time urge him to come this
way" ....
CityAttorneyDailey stated today that
the city has given up all thought OF
attempting to obstruct the completion
of the Mankato & New Ulm road with
in the city limits. The citizens as a
whole will endorse this determination.
