MINNEAPOLIS. Mimi. March 13.-The
Minneapolis Trust company. as trustee
has begun proceedings to foreclose
mortgage on the Guaranty Loan building,
in which Thomas Lowry owns half in
terest. According TO the terms of the
mortgage, the owners of the property are
required each year to deposit with the
trustee either $4,000 of the mortgage
bonds, which are then to be Cancelled, or
$40. 600 in cash. which the trustee is to
retain as sinking fund, investing 1t for
the benefit of the depositors. Mr.. Lowry
attempted to purchase bonds for deposit.
hut was unable to do so. Mr.. Lowry Of
fered to buy at par. but there were no
takers. Mr.. Lowry thereupon declined
t. deposit the $4,000 required by the terms
of the mortgage.
When. seen regarding the matter this
evening Mr.. Lowry said Il did not know
that foreclosure proceedings had actually
begun, although we have been threatened
with them for some time. The bonds are
held in Holland and when We were
threatened with foreclosure proceedings
some weeks ago I offered to take up all
the bonds at par to pay the mortgage,
but they informed me that they could not
get the bonds. The mortgage, by its
terms can be paid April /, 1900. or on
any April l after that up to 1910, when it
becomes due and must be paid. L am
perfectly satisfied with the proceedings
and will demand that they present the
bonds and accept payment. The Ameri-
can Exchange National Bank of New
York is half owner in the building with
me and fully comedies with all L have
done in the matter"
The original mortgage on the building.
which it is now proposed to foreclose,
was for 100000, 1900 bonds being issued
for a par value of $400 each. The issue
was made in 1890.

to Accept No Doubtful Paper.
MINNEAPOLIS, March minneapolis
merchants and business men are warned
by the police department to look out for
a clever forger who has been operating
in Duluth and st. Paul, and who is sup
posed to have headed for Minneapolis.
The police have a description of the man.
and will exert themselves to apprehend
him should he attempt operations in Min
neapolis.
He goes under the name of w. ]. Dean.
and is about p years of age, feet s
inches in height, weighs $50 pounds, has
q dark complexion. dark hair and smooth
face. He wore dark suit and dark derby
hat, and the checks which he has cashed
have generally been made for SIS. He uses
q dating stamp and numbers the checks
in red ink, and Is an excellent penman
and writes a businesslike check, purport-
ing to be drawn by some business house
or merchant.
The fellow is also supposed to be the
man who recently forged three checks in
Des Moines for SIS each on prominent cit
liens. His work in the Iowa capital was
exceedingly well done, and the authori-
ties there were of the opinion that he had
left for the Northwest, and requested
Chief Doyle to look out for him
Another man for whom the police are
searching is one who is just now working
the cycle dealers with small checks his
game being to make a small payment on
wheel. These checks are made payable
to Beaver Johnson. and are written on

REMORSE MAKES HIM MAD.
Howard Lake Wife Murderer Runs
Amuck In Jail.

MINNEAPOLIS. March 13.-Fred Kier,
the Howard Lake man who killed his
wife few days ago, was lodged in the
Hennepin county jail Saturday evening"
being placed in one of the cells of the
main ward. He had been in the cell but
a short time when he seemed to be seized
with madness. laying hold upon the va
rioIs articles of furniture In his cell and
demolishing them in short order. 1t was
not until assistance was called that he
was overpowered and strapped that he
ceased his struggles. He was Immediate
ly removed to the insane ward and. placed
In the cell which was occupied by Moshik
from the time of his conviction to his ex-
ecution. There he seemed quieter
for the time, and was allowed to spend
the night alone. When his cell was in
spected in the morning, however, it was
found to be literally filled with feathers,
scattered about by the prisoner after
tearing his pillow to pieces and ripping
his other bed clothes to tatters. His cell
was in wretched state, and he had to be
removed and given a bath, while his cell
was cleaned and everything that could
be destroyed taken out. He will be held
here to await orders from the Wright
county officials

chases Forty Acres at the Beach.
MINNEAPOLIS, March 13.-The eXecu-
tive committee of the Minnetonka Pleas
ure club, of which J. c. Eliel Is chair
man, called upon President j. J. Hill, of
the Greas Northern, on Saturday for q
final conference to the acquisition by
the club Of the Lafayette hotel site and
grounds for club purposes.
The property changes hands at the ri
diculously low figure of $3.50 an acre. Ad-
jacent cottagers paid much more for the
separate lots upon which their summer
residences We're built years ago. The plan
Of the executive committee is to bond the
entire property at $4,000, issuing per
cent bonds in denominations of from 500
TO $500, according to the demands of sub
scribers. AS the club has clear title,
bondholders will be absolutely secured.
Chairman Eiiel said this morning that
the committee would very shortly select
a plan for the club house and afterwards
submit it to full meeting. Charming
Whitney has been working on set of
plans for some months, and it appears
probable that these will meet the approx
al of the club. 1t is also the intention of
the club to spend between 81, 900 and $1,000
in identifying the grounds this season.
The club house is to cost between $40 900

JUDGMENT is NO GOOD.
Defendant in a Breach of Promise
Suit Becomes Bankrupt.

IOWA FALLS. To-, March 13-The new
bankruptcy law has just knocked out a
breach of promise suit in the district
court of this county. F. E. Milliken a
well known young farmer of this county,
was made a defendant in a suit brought
by Miss Euna Bond, of this county, for
failure to wed the young lady She Sc
cured judgment of $1,000, and it was
generally thought the Judgment was
good one. A few weeks ago Mr. Milliken
took advantage of the privileges that the
new bankruptcy law gives and filed
petition of voluntary bankruptcy in the
federal court. He has just been given a.
hearing before the referee of this county
and it develops that he is living on a
farm belonging to his father and brother
and that all that is attachable is some
grain and stock and that previous claims
and the exemptions under the law leave
the judgment out in the cold The fair
plaintiff finds herself, therefore, without
husband or a solace In the way of a
900 judgment.

CURIOUS WISCONSIN WELLS.
They Blow Air Out and Breathe 1t
-. In Somehow or Other.

-. In Somehow or Other.
BARABOO, Wis, March 13.-Blowing or
breathing wells are strange phenomena
which exist at Sank City. Prairie du Sac
and Merrimack, in this county. At those
places wells have been put down to depths
varying from sixty to 100 feet, and,
strange TO relate, they eXhale the air for
a period of twenty-four hours and then
inhale for a like period. In cold weather
water is frozen at a depth of over 100 feet,
causing the pump pipes to burst in many
cases. Recently Charles Stoddard, living
near this place, put some light boards
over his well and during the night the
exhalation blew part Of the boards off
One man covered his well over very tight,
except round hole through one of the
boards, and when hat, folded newspaper
or other similar object was placed over
the hole 1t would be blown Off
The air seems to come from strata Of
very coarse gravel, in which there is no
sand or other substance except a little
soapy matter. w. G. Kirchoffer, of the
state university, is making an investiga-
ton of these wells and may be able to
solve the mystery.
