II o'clock Saturday night and, taking off
his coat and vest left them lying on a

A GREAT CARNIVAL

The Maccabee Carnival association,
Of Sleepy Eye have arranged for an
"eye opening time in that little city
Sept. 1915. There is to be a week
of ''hot stuff on tap and no mistake.
There will be time for sleep, but not
much. There will be time to eat
and plenty of good things will be pro-
vided. You can probably get all you
want to drink-and the variety will
be limited only to the capacity of the
city water tank and ice houses. There
will be more fun than you have ever
seen. A complete change of program
is furnished every afternoon and eve
ming. The city will be in holiday at
tire and the decorations will be "out
of sigh" after you have spent one
or two nights there.
The attendance promises to be enor-
NOUS but provisions have been made
to take care of all corners. You won t
have to sleep on the sidewalk unless
your condition demands it, and it pro-
badly will not.
1t is expected that day will be ar
ranged for an excursion from Mankato,
and if so look out for a crowd. No
less than 500 will go, and all will have
a chance to ride over the Mankato &
New Ulm cut off.

DISPOSED OF THE CASE.
Judge Quinn Hears Final Report OF the
Receiver In the Longini & Thoms
Insolvency Proceedings
He Cuts the Claim of Receiver and
Attorney.
cREDIroBs WILL GET 3, PER CENT.

Judge Quinn Friday, at the hear
ing on the final report of Receiver,
Clark in the insolvency proceedings
of Longini & Thoms, filed his findings
late in the day. He allowed the re-
ceiver So, 900 to be divided be-
tween himself and his attorney
Attorney Comstock was allowed
$50 on his bill. One or two others
small items were disallowed.
In round numbers $73, 900 in claims
were filed with the receiver, and
$s1, 600 finally allowed, including some
preferred claims. Samuel Sternberger
attempted to file Claim of $12, 900 but
his application to be allowed to file
was refused.
The adjustment of the fees of the re-
ceiver and attorney without litigation
is fortunate for the creditors. Com
pared with other assignments the fees
are not high, but they are surely high
enough. The exhorbitant claims that
are usually put in for services in these
insolvency cases are all out of proper
tion to the services performed, and if
creditors would look more closely after
their interests in these matters their
dividends on final settlement would be
considerably increased.
Creditors in the Longini & Thoms
failure will get about 81 per cent.

BEEF WILL BE HIGH.
Wars, Large Foreign Demand, and
Scarcity of Cattle Said to Be the Reason.

Scarcity of Cattle Said to Be the Reason.
Breakfast steaks and roast beef din
ners will be rare luxury on the tables
of the poor this winter, if the predic-
tions at the stock yards prove true,
says Chicago report. For some time
there has been steady advance in the
price of cattle, and the prospects now
are that prices will go still higher
and will remain stiff throughout the
winter.
AS yet the retail market has not felt
the full effect of these advances. In a
very short time, however, beef that
is now selling at 10 and IA cents retail
may be expected to go to is and 16
cents, and the cheaper grades will be
marketed by corresponding advances.
1t is feared that beef, pork, veal,
mutton--in fact all kinds of meats will
exceptionally high. This condi-
ton is anomalous. As a rule at this
time of the year all meats are cheap,
but several causes have been at work
to influence the market. In the first
place there is the foreign demand,
which has been increased not only by
the Boer and Chinese wars, but also
by the generally growing popularity of
American meat products in Europe.
There is also marked falling off in
the supply of western cattle. The
breeders it is said are trying to cross
breeds to raise a better stock, and in
the interim both high bred and low
bred cattle will be scarce.
