Sewer Extension Delayed.

Thos. Kehoe's bond as State street
sewer contractor, for 1925, with Sam'l
CATER, E. L. Halves and Chas. L. Funk
as sureties, was presented.
The matter of the proposed State
street sewer extension was talked over,
some of the property owners having
thought that the sewer is to be too near
the surface, so that it may freeze in
winter.
Engineer Thompson stated that if the
sewer connects with the present system
it cannot be placed any lower He did
not think that the sewer would freeze,
as some connections only foot and a
half deep have not frozen during the
past two winters.
The matter was laid over until the
next meeting, on Aid. Taylor's motion.
The bond and contract of Masters &
McLaurin for putting in the Fifth street
sewer, for 1920, with w. N. Plymat and

The snearsion of the twin city job

ChirBgp Great Western Saturday, on
iuy7tatfaa Of President Stickney. was a
happy event, which ought to result
most ygo6eably in many ways to not
only 10 size railroad but also to the twin
cities Ra8 the towns visited. Mankato
was glad Of the opportunity to give the
Great Western officials and the jobbers
the weEg1zgqs extended and more pleased
that 9hEy snloyed themselves to the ex-
tent fEeY aid. Such movement can
not l1esn bat bring about closer and
more frsaaiy relations between all con-
earned, ana if INDUCED in occasionally

The Kennedy Players.

In speaking of the Kennedy Players,

of next week, the Watertown Standard
says: Mr.. John j. Kennedy and Miss
Nellie Kennedy won more laurels at
the city opera house last evening, the
occasion of the opening of the Kenne-
dy players for weeks engagement.
The play was the comedy drama,
''Teddy Mcguire, the Irish Duke"
an interesting story of love and hate,
comedy and tragedy, with spicy hum
or and startling climaxes. The aud
fence was the largest of the season,
every seat being occupied and the
big green sign" Standing Room Only"
was hung in the window when the
door opened at 1880. The play is a
clean cut tale with a good plot and
no horse play or rowdyism. Mr.. Ken
needy is a clever comedian and easy
talker with excellent facial expression.
Miss Kennedy is charming young
woman and possesses much ability,
as is shown in the wide range of parts
she is called upon to enact and in
none of which is she found wanting.
She has a pretty face, easy manners,

ist pieces Of theatre scenery that is
being shown this season.
