st. Peter Tribune says:
The investigation of the John
Wellner murder, which occurred in
Lafayette township Dec. 81, 1893, has
been steadily going on by Sheriff

further investigation of the remains
became necessary. The body was ex-
humed on Monday last at the Lutheran

of this city, and o. G. Stricken, of New
Ulm, and ia chemical examination is
now in progress. When the matter
will be taken up by the grand jury for
investigation is at the present time in
definite A great deal of evidence has
been taken by Sheriff Block and court
reporter w. T. Eckstein, and quite d
number of persons are yet to be
examined.

Society

The farewell concert given by Prof.
Brastad at the A. O. Z. w. hall last
evening was attended by about four
hundred of our people. While the pro-
gram was brief, it was very good. The
work done by the Philharmonic Man
dolin club was of high order and
shows that the club here profited by the
careful training which lit has received.
Miss Josephine Holt delighted all by
her rendition of a couple of soprano
solos J Eltun, of Northfield, gave a
couple of pleasing tenor solos. The
Brownie quartet fully maintained its
past reputation and was roundly ap-
plauded. Prof Brastad, in his mando-
lin and guitar solos, captivated the au-
dience.
Following the concert, the floor was
cleared and the remainder of the eve
ming was spent in dancing. The affair
was very enjoyable one throughout.

WHEREABOUTS UNKNOWN.
Efforts to Locate D. w. Bradley are,
UnayaiIipg.

General Agent White, of the Deering
Machine Co., has been making inquiries
OF the other agencies as to D. W. Brad.
ley, who left after securing an advance
OF $40 for expense money. He has
learned that man giving the. same
name has been victimizing agents and
hotels in South Dakota, getting about
$40 from each of them. His receipts
from the agents in this manner have
been about $3.50, and the same amount
from hotels, andlhe has left for parts
unknown. A man giving the name of
Rich, and answering Bradley's descrip-
ton, worked game on one or more of
the agents in Southern Minnesota. Mr..
White believes that Rich may be the
man who visited Mankato, and that
the South Dakota Bradley is another
person. 1t is believed that Rich is an
assumed name.
No trace of Bradley has yet been Sc
cured, but Mr.. White intends to notify
every agency that the company has, in
order that they may be on their guard
against the fellow.
