A SPECIAL TRAIN.
Omaha Will Run one to Mime
apolis Oct. 18th.
Many Mankato People Will Take ia the
Presidential Visit and 18th Re-
giment Disbanding.

Col. Johnson is endeavoring to Sc
cure special train to leave Mankato
early on the morning of Oct. 18th and
reach Minneapolis i'm time for the pro-
ceedings on the occasion of President
McKinley's visit and the disarmament
of the 18th regiment. A rate of one
fare for the round trip has been made,
and it is expected that large number
of Mankato people will desire to at
tend. If ithe special were to leave at
500 a. IN. it would reach Minneapolis
at the hour of President McKinley's ar
rival, $50 a. m. People who failed to
take this or the earlier train could
still take the 700 a. M train
1t is probable that the Concordia
band will accompany the Mankato dele
cation. If special is secured, it will
probably leave for home at about 1000
p. m,
This afternoon we learn from Col.
Johnson that he has received assur-
ances from General Passenger Agent
Teasdale that the special train will be
furnished, to start at such time as
Col. johnson might designate Mr..
johnson has placed the time of de-
parture at 500 a. m. The train will
probably leave St. Paul on the return
trip at about 1000 p M, but this is not
settled, as the evenings program is not
yet definitely known AS stated above,
this train will reach Minneapolis in
time to witness the arrival of President
Mckinley and all of the subsequent
