FASTER TIME.
Slight Changes Caused by II in Chicago
& Northwestern Time Card.

A new time card went into effe ct on
the Chicago & Northwestern road Sun
day, but it makes only slight
changes in the time of arrival and de-
parture of passenger trains in this city.
The object of the change is to obtain
faster time on the western division.
The time freight will leave Winona
an hour later than heretofore and get
to Tracy at the same time as formerly.
Passenger train No. for the west
which has been leaving here at 10
p. m. will depart at :O5 p. m. and
will get to Tracy ten minutes earlier
than heretofore. 1t will arrive at
Watertown a whole hour earlier, at s
p. m.
Passenger train No. 10, which ar
rives here at 4 20 p. m. from the West,
will leave Watertown at 9: 80 a. M,
instead of 8 80 a. m. and will make up
this hour between Watertown and
Mankato, running on its present sche-
dule between Mankato and Winona. 1t
will arrive in Mankato few minutes
later, but will. leave at the same time
as heretofore.
The passenger train for New Ulm
via. Kasota will leave at IL :05 p. m.

BRANCH AT ST. PAUL.
Desd Letter Office May be Established
There.

st. Paul, Aug. 5-"The proposition
to establish branch dead letter Offices
throughout the country has been dis
cussed considerably within the past
few days." said Congressman Stevens
yesterday. 'The larger cities, New
York, Chicago and San Francisco, are
very much in favor Of it. The Chicago
papers have taken it up, and. as Sena-
tor Mason of Illinois will undoubtedly
be chairman of the senate committee
on postal affairs, legislation to this end
will probably come up. The only
legislation necessary is to empower the
present inquiry or ''nixie" Offices to
open mail instead of forwarding it to
Washington. The rest can be done by
regulations issued by the postmaster
general "
THE establishment of branch dead
letter Office in st. Paul would mean a
saving of at least from three to four
months in handling dead letters, " said
local postal official yesterday. "Some
have endeavored to ridicule the iGea of
branch dead letter Offices, claiming
that the mike Office is practically a
dead letter Office. This is not so.
There are mike Offices in the
various divisions of the railway mail
service, to which are sent undelivered
letters on which there is no return ad-
dress, or letters which come to the di-
vision, probably by mistake, ADDRESSED
to some station unknown in the divi-
sion. The clerks at the mike Office
simply try to forward these to the
proper address.
''If, however, the address cannot be
made out, the inquiry Office cannot
open the letter to return it to the
sender, or possibly ascertain the ad-
dress of the person to whom it was
sent, but must forward it to the dead
letter Office at Washington. In addi-
ton to the time thus consumed in
transportation the dead letter Office is
from three to four months behind all
the time"

CHANGED HIS STORY.
The Accuser is Locked up, and the Ac-
Cused Released.

A stranger, about sixty years old,
who sells pencils and combs, reported
to the police Saturday evening that
two other strangers were trying to get
his money. At his request. two men,
giving the names of Chas Beatty and
Lee McMullin, were locked up at the
police station. These men said that
they were with the old man, who was
spending his money freely for drinks
for the crowd, and that he seemed to
fear that another party wanted to get
his money, and he had called on them
to stay with him and protect him.
They said that they had come to the
city Friday night and had been pro-
missed a Job ON the steel wark on the
Milwaukee road, to begin this morn
ing.
i. The old man was hunted up Sun
day and taken to the city nall to tell
his story more fully, but he changed
his tune after getting there and declar-
ed that the two prisoners were good
fellows and had not tried to get his
money. He was still somewhat under
the influence of liquor, and he was
locked up and the two men whom he
had accused the night before were re-
leased. The old fellow was subse-
quently released on his promise to ap-
pear in court at nine o'clock Monday
morning. When searched, he had
81. 68, but claimed to have had $40 Sat-
urday morning.

Ernest Bacon has returned from a
southern trip, and states that in South
ern Iowa, Southern Illinois, Nebraska
and further south the corn crop is not
even worth harvesting for fodder as
there is no life in the stalks. Grass is
also dead, and cattle are being shipped
out. Corn in Northern Iowa looks the
best of anywhere. At Ames, Iowa,
people slept in cots on the streets dur
ing the hot spell. Mr.. Bacon believes
that the drouth will stimulate the land
business in the Northwest, where
crops are heavy. Renters of high
priced land will go north.

ENDED HIS LIFE.
Serias Blumberg Swallows Car.
bOIiC Acid.
Former Resident of Lake Crystal Sui.
cides at GAINESVILLE as a Result
of iii Health.

Serias Blumberg committed suicide
st GAINESVILLE early Sunday morning
by swallowing three ounces of carbolic

and went out behind the store, where
he took the fatal drink. His body was
discovered there early in the morning.
The deceased was doing we'll in
business and was in fair financial cir
cumstances, and had a pleasant home
life. His act was due to dependency
resulting from i'll health, as he had
suffered for several years with some
complaint that did not yield to treat
ment. He left in the store an unsigned
letter written in Hebrew and addressed
to his wife In substance, it said:
MY loving wife: You will forgive
me- but 1 could not stand it any more,
the way l have been suffering. So 1
have concluded to take my life. Every
thing that is left belongs to you. This
is the last time that will ever write.
Good Bye"
Mrs. Blumberg telephoned to her
sister, Mrs Salet, Sunday forenoon
informing her of her husbands act,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Salet went over to
Janseville and brought her back with
them. She expects soon to become a
mother Mrs. Blumberg on Saturday

asking him to spend Sunday with
them at GAINESVILLE.
The deceased was thirty-threes years
of age. and was born in Russia, COM
ing to America eleven or twelve years
ago He resided at Lake Crystal the
past three years. peddling out from
there. He was married to sister of
Mrs Salet year ago. The remains

TIPS TO BUTTERMAKERS.
How the Dairy Commissioner Furnishes
Pointers,

Dairy Commissioner Mcconnell is
making the state butter scoring con-
tests valuable educationally. ALI
diaries are urged to send in sample
tubs each month, and the sesent in are
closely marked. All makes of butter
which fall below the highest marking
are informed by letter just what is the
matter with their butter, and how to
remedy it.
In addition to the money prizes the
department will in the future give
diplomas to successful competitors.
Mr.. Mcconnell announced Saturday
that he would also give diplomas to all
exhibitors whose samples throughout
the year averaged SO or better. This
is the mark which defines minnesota
extra commercially.
