WANTS SUIT STARTED.
County Attorney Hughes Asked to Pro.
coed Against American Express Co.

County Attorney Hughes received
letter today from Secretary of State
Berg directing him to commence suit
against the American Express Co. for
violation of the Sommerville law,
which requires express companies to
pay a license of $50 for the first $50, 600
of their capital stock and So on each
additional so, OOO The fine for failure
to do this is 81, 200.
Mr. Hughes is not enthusiastic over
the idea of this county standing the
expense in a matter in which it is no
more interested than any other county,
especially as the fine goes to the state.
The administration seems to have
apportioned out work to several coun-
ties that belongs properly to the state.

The Populistic Democrats were loud
in their predictions that the Dingley
law, even when supplemented by the
war revenue measure would not pro-
duce revenue enough to meet the needs
of the government. How wide of the
mark they were is shown by the fact
that the ordinary receipts of the gov
eminent from all sources over expendi-
lures, for the last fiscal year were
$S1, 229, 779. The receipts from GUS
toms this year were $27, 729, ATT more
than in 1899, and internal revenue re-
ceipts were $22, S62, 227 larger than a
year ago. The Dingley law has fully
justified the hopes and predictions of
its creators and friends

MankatO & New Ulm to be
Operated.
Two Trains 10 New ulm via. st. Peter
and q New Accommodation
Prem New Ulm.

The word came today TO operate the
Mankato & New Ulm road, commenc-
ing Sunday next. With the order came
time card that contains much in
formation that will be pleasing to
Mankato people The long wait is
amply compensated for by the fact that
an entirely new train is secured, to
run east from New Ulm. This train
now only comes as far west as Waseca,
and travelling men and others have
been obliged to remain over night at
Waseca. Now they can come to Man
kato and remain.
This train will arrive from New
Ulm on the way east at 10 p m and
will arrive from the east at Z :13 p. m.
Two passenger trains will be run be-
tween Mankato and New Ulm by way
of Mankato junction and ST. Peter.
They will leave Mankato at II 20 p. IN.
and will arrive in Mankato at z 80 a. IN.
and 5 10 p. IN. This will be found
very convenient for those who wish tc
come to the city to trade, as well as
for those having business at points
reached by these trains.
Very little change is made in the
present schedule of running the trains
that now go through on the main line.
The road saves some time between
Mankato and New Ulm. The new
time card will be published Saturday.

ports to the island from the United
States in May, 1899, were 1905, 564,
and in May 1900, were 1896, 479. The
imports into the United States from
the island in May, 1899, were $647, 179,
and in May, 1900, 81, 1O3, S67. The
May commerce with Porto Rico shows
a much greater increase than is the
case with any of the other islands.
With Cuba the commerce of May
differed little from that of May, 1899,
and this was also the case with the
Hawaiian islands; while in the Phi
lippine islands the imports show no
increase, though the exports show a
remarkable gain.

THE CHAMBERS ON HAWAII
OVER FORTY-FIVE DEATHS ARR
REPORTED.
A Hawaii Veterinary Surgeon Who
Agrees With Honolulu Doctors Re
garding Water Troughs.

DIR. Elliott, a we'll known veterinary
surgeon of Hawaii, is in Honolulu, on
a visit, and has had a number of dis
cussons with the local veterinarians
regarding the epidemic of CHAMBERS on
Hawaii. All of the big plantations OF
the island have stocks of mules and
horses, and the outbreak of the disease
threatens to be a serious matter II 1t
is not promptly checked. DR.. Elliott
has visited a number of the places
where cases have been reported, and
has taken steps to check the disease.
Between fifteen and twenty horses
and mules have died of CHAMBERS in
Hilo district. In Kohala there have
been thirty deaths from the disease,
which is also reported to exist in Otncr
districts, though the number of cases IS
not reported. There are many thous-
ands of dollars worth of horses and
mules on the Island, and the most en-
ergetc steps will be taken to stop the
trouble.
DR.. Elliott agrees with DR.. Monsar-
raft regarding the water troughs. Both
physicians say that they are source
of great danger, and are not even safe
If they have only running water. THE
dangerous matter that is discharged
from a glandered horse sinks to the
bottom" said DIR. Monsarratt, land it
is there as a source of great danger,
even if water is passing over it.

THE CONCERT uTTFRAIRE
ENTERTAINMENT AT THE OPERA
HOUSE LAST NIGHT.
Fitz w. Hall Reads Some of His Forth
coming Poems-Musical Features of
the Evenings Program.

There was fair-sized but fasniOna-
BILE audience in the opera house last
night when Captain Bergers band gave
the overture to a long and varied pro
gram. Aside from the attractions of
the numbers on the list there was a
good deal of curiosity to hear G. f.
Fitz w. Hall give advance readings
from some of his forthcoming poems.
Mr.. Halls first reading was three
brief selections characterized respect
lively as Sea Music" Earth Song" and
Wood Notes" The entertainment ar
forded by the poems themselves was
enhanced by the authors delivery,
which was dramatic in the extreme, and
seemed to show ample study of Del
sarte. The next selection was from
Soul Symphonies"-"The Child of the
Infinite" 1t had a mixed reception.
There were signs of visibility in some
parts of the hall, and the gallery es-
pecially, appeared to disapprove of the
lines. 1t is safe to say that Mr.. Halls
works will never be popular with the
masses. wind Voices" Sun Tones"
and Fancy" were the concluding Sc
lections by Mr.. Hall. They were in the
same strain as the others.
Miss d. E. Griswold and Paul Egry
carried off the hOnors of the musical
part of the program. Miss Griswold
sang several selections, and deserved
the liberal applause she received. Mr..
Egrys work with the violin was mas
terly. Allan Dunn gave a recitation
from LAS You Like 1t" with much sue
cess, and ]. l.. Rockwell and c. A.
Elston were both much applauded for
their solos. j. S. Lawton in a bass
solo, 1.-The Mighty Deep" added much
to the entertainment.

PLAGUE IN AUSTRALIA.

The files of two Colonial papers re-
ceived by the Alameda, show that the
bubonic plague is seriously engaging
the attention of the Australian and
New Zealand authorities. In Sydney
part of the city has been quarantined
in much the same manner that China
town was quarantined here, and provis-
ion is being made to remove the people
to detention and observation camps as
was done in Honolulu. Strict regula-
tions in regard to shipping are being
made. The Brisbane authorities are es-
tablishing quarantine stations and have
ordered 5000 doses of Haffhne's pro-
phylactic from Bombay, and the same
amount from Paris.

A Trne story About a BlbIe.


There was a little boy who wanted a
Bible very much lndeed-wanted It
more than anything else he could think
Of. But he was a poor boy, and could
not afford to buy one; for he lived
good many years ago when Bibles cost
more than they do now.
One day two strange gentlemen came
10 his house and asked his mother for
something to eat. Although she had
only plain food, she gave them wei
come to what she had. As they ate
they saw that the little boy looked sad.
They asked him what he wanted, and
no told them Bible. His mother said;
"Never mind. Don't fret about that.
I'll take you to see Gen. Washington
next week"
But I'd rather have Bible than 60
70 see Gen. washington" the boy said.
One OF the gentlemen seemed much
nleased with this. and told him he
boned he would always be as fond OF
the Bible.
The next day the little boy received a
heautiful Bible. and on the hy-leaf was
written: From George Washington.
The little boy did not know 1t, but he
had been talking to Gen. Washington
himself the day before.-Our Little
People.
