Corpse. /" the Record at Renville
makes merry with a Redwood paper
which recently printed pipe dream
about the G.. & NJ It says that
"the Redwood Falls papers seem to
have no respect for death or the
grave. With sacreligious hands
they have torn open the grave and
are parading the dead body Of the
Gulf & Manitoba. When that weak,
ling squeaked its last on the hills of
Beaver creek and turned up its
toes on its little right of way last
summer, with unpaid bills for flow
ers but no mourners, it was thought
the remains of the consumptive
railroad, that never footed whistle
or rang a bell, would be allowed to
rest unwept and unsung, in a de-
serted grave where, as the Irish
man said, the hand of man does not
tread But 10! the body snatchers
on the Redwood journals insist on
galvanizing a semblance of. life the
ghost of the departed and in black
headlines tell of the coming Gulf 8
Manitoba revival. Let. that mis- be-
gotten shape rest in peace, brothers.
There is no virtue or life left in it's.
bones. From pity let the shapeless
thing rest IN the little cemetery on
the hills overlooking the expiring
village of Beaver. and the soft winds
that blow over the prairies will
softly mourn the departed, the wild
flowers will cover over the mound,
and earth, sky and sea will forget
that such a helpless weakIing as
the Gulf & Manitoba was ever con

ject Of his mission here, was to look
into the condition of the temporary
bridge of the G. & NJ over the Min
nesOta, so that it should not float
away with the spring freshets. He
informed our reporter that the Gov
ernor (Campbell) had been in Kan
sas City lately, while be (Carpen-
ter) had been employed during a
part of the winter in looking after
the wreck of the company grade
at the Galveston end of the line.
Out of more than seventy miles
graded, nearly half of the length
had been washed away or badly
damaged by the terrible Galveston
storm OF year ago. Galveston is
building up at a tremendous pace,
about | 800 buildings being under
construction at the time Mr.. Car
penter left.

reports that the g. & M. project
had really been taken up by cap

struction, Carpenter admitted that
Fowler. the financial agent of the
company, had been laboring with
Boston capitalists, and that he had
been informed that work was to be
begun by them at the opening of
this season. He was not prepared
to say whether the plan of the com
pany's engineers was to con tinue the
grade into Red wood Falls by way
Of the Delhi hill or otherwise. His
own preference had been to run the
grade east from the Minnesota
crossing, instead of west, but he
had been overruled. The problem
Of ascending from the level of the
Minnesota river to that of Redwood
Falls was difficult one, and in
volved either a long detour or a
grade SO steep that an extra engine
would be required to help ordinary
freight trains up the hill. He
thought there was little to choose
as to the relative cost of the two al
ternatives.

girl, the daughter of one of the
wealthy dons OF Cuba. The plot is
bold one and the narrative carried
through the volume and we'll sus-
tanned at all points. We learn that
the Lotus Club of New York were
the first readers of the manuscript
and that through their representa-
tions no difficulty was experienced
in getting the well-known publish
ing house of r. Tenneyson Nicely
Co. of Chicago, TO take hold of the
publication The manuscript was
re-read by an expert employed by
the publishers and this second
reading resulted in a better verdict
than the first The volume will
prove readable not alone for it's his
torical data, but for the heart inter
est Of the story. The book will
make its appearance soon; it is to be
a well printed volume of 800 pages,
bound in cloth aud sells at $1.5O.
We are certain that the people of this
CITY will wish Mr.. Brooks complete
success with his book.
