DRILLS AND FUSE.
These and Two Gold Watches Found
on Man Arrested Today.

Officer Thilgen arrested a drunken
man shortly after noon on Monday,
who made such a resistance to being
searched at the station that two men
could scarcely hold him. Two gold
watches and two etxra gold chains,
two drills for cutting into metal, and
a fuse were among the articles found
in thefellow's possession.
The man gave the name of VIM.
Taylor, and said that his home was at
Indianapolis, and that he was a ma
chinist by trade. He said that he had
purchased the drills and fuse in this
city. 1t was subsequently ascertained
that he had purchased the drills of J.
A. Lewis & Son. He said that he
found use for them in his business.
Taylor had $37 in his possession.
After he had sobered off some, he
made proposition to policeman to
accept $40 and leave the balance if he
should be set free.
One of the gold watches was ladies
watch. with Waltham movement.
Taylor claims that he got the watches
in Chicago. He will be held for day

ACTION STARTED,
Auctieneer's License Mandamus Case
to be Held Auq. 25th.

The papers in the mandaums pro.
ceedings of Samuel S. Levy against
the mayor and council were served
Wednesday.
After giving history of the case,
the complaint says:
THAT a refusal of said common
council to grant license as aforesaid
to your relator was arbitrary and for
the express purpose of discriminating
against your relator, and 20 prohibit
him from engaging in that occupation
within the city of Msnkato, and for
the purpose of suppressing an auction
by the said g. +. Williams & Com
pany arbitrarily and without cause,
and for injuring and destroying said
REALTORS occupation as an auctioneer,
and the contemplated business of the
firm by which he was employed, and
that said license was not refused in
the honest exercise OF a sound discre-
ton, but was refused with the wrong
full, arbitrary and unlawful purpose of
preventing and prohibiting your rela-
tor in said city. There is no excuse
or justification for the refusal of said
respondents to grant the license as
aforesaid, and said relator has no
plain, speedy or adequate remedy in
the ordinary cause of law
Wherefore the mayor and council
are commanded Immediately upon and
after the receipt of this writ to grant
the application of Levy for an AUG
tioneef's license, or show cause before
Judge Cray on Aug. Goth at 10 a. m.

where defendant failed to appear.
Should one happen to refuse to state
his case, he would Immediately be
pronounced guilty, and would be So
clally ostracised. And when a man is
thousands of miles from his native
land, ostracism by his own kind means
something more that it sounds.
1.-The claimant or plaintiff appear
ing before jury states his side of the
argument. When he has finished his
story. the defendant is called and his
side of the matter is given. The jury
are then left alone to debate unor the
pros and cons of the case, and, in a
short time-a half hour or more, &C.
cording to the gravity of the matter
recall the plaintiff and defendant,
who, are told the decision of the
court.
"No matter what the result of the
trial may be, there are no appeals to
higher courts, no after bad feelings,
the case having been weighed judi
ciously and settled for the first and
last time. 1t is for this reason, there
fore, that so few Chinese are brought
before Philadelphia courts, and I may
safely say that Americans cannot bat
realize that Cinnamon are certainly
further advanced in their method of
settling small disputes than are many
of the white brethren.
The temple in which the court of

tire ad cover the walls and are made
into banners. Sentiments of religious
character, but such as are applicable
to all men in every path of life, are
written in Chinese characters, in gold,
upon the ceilings and about the walls,
and teakwood tables and chairs that
would fill the connoisseur with envy
are scattered literally about the room.
Daylight penetrates the temple
through modern shutters, but soft
red light is forever burning in a
queer lamp, laden with jewels, before
the altar. This, together with the
smell of fine incense that fills the
room, and the rarity of its adorn-
ments, makes the place unusually i'm
pressive.

ANOTHER BANK.
The 0les0ns Said to Be Inter
ested In 1t.
A Report That Mankato Will Have Its
Third National Bank, With
100000 Capital.

1t is reported that Mankato is soor
to have another national bank. Local
and outside capital is said to be in
teresGed in the proposed new enter
prise. Among tie outside parties are
said Co be A. o. Oleson of Wells and
G. L. Oleson of Howard, S. D., both
gentlemen CT means. A. o. Oleson is
cashier of bank at Wells.
1t is said that the new bank will be
capitalized at 800. 900, and that it
will be started as soon as possible.
The parties back of the project have
been looking for location and are
said to have two in view. one near
Hickory street and one near Main
street. 1t may be that it will finally
be located north of the present banks,
as there has been more or less talk of
the need of bank in that section of
the city. u
Mankato is pretty well Supplied
with banks already, having four, but
the city is growing and could probably
support another, if properly located
and managed.
The Messrs. Oleson and Judge James
81. Quinn of Fairmont were in the
city yesterday afternoon on matters
with the new bank. Judge
Quinn will not take an interest in the
bank. A number of business men were
interviewed and several promised to
AXE stock.
An option has been secured on the
ease of the store now occupied by J.
3. Ruerup, and if started, the bank
nay be located there.

There was large attendance Mon

the present year, and the usual routine
business was transacted. Among other
things, was the passage of a resolu-
ton, by a unanimous vote, asking for
the return of DIR. Cowgirl for the en-
suing conference year. The manner of
its presentation and the cordiality and
perfect unanimity of the endorsement,
was convincing evidence of DR..

In his pulpit and out of it, DR.. Cow
gill has grown in favor with people
generally and his return will be a
cause OF great satisfaction to the whole

FOUND IN RIVER
SatcheI Containing Ladies
Clothes and JeweIry.
No Clue to the Owner, and the Matter
is Enshrowded in Deep
Mystery.

Mystery surrounds satcheI found
Monday on the shore of the Blue
Earth river. How it came to be
there is not known. The satchel con
tanned lady's wardrobe, such as
jacket, shirt waist and other articles
that young miss would wear
Mrs. r. A Willis of Omaha and
her sister, Mrs. Ed. Evans of 419
Byron street were fishing yesterday
at a point near Jones ford in the
Blue Earth river, about three miles
from the city. Mrs Willis made a
catch and in pulling the fish out of the
water it was landed among a lot of
weeds. The lady started on a hunt
for her fish and was surprised to ind
a satchel that had been lying in the
water, but recently had been washed
ashore
The satchel was locked, but the
LADIES forced it open. They found it to
contain an Elton jacket, white Glib
son waist, handkerchiefs, gloves, some
jewelry, powder box and other articles
for feminine use. There was also a
letter written in Mankato on July %
last. 1t was addressed to Dear Ed"
and signed "Your loving Mary" The
writer spoke of trip she was about
to make into the country. The letter
had been soaked in the water and
portion of the writing was obliter-
ated, but it is evident that the writer
was going to drive to Minnesota Lake
as the words MINI Lake. can be
made out. This letter was never
mailed.
The satchel and the articles found in
it are now at Mrs. Evans home.
Among those who have heard of the
find, surmises are advanced as to the
of the owner. If the
satchel was stolen during the carnival,
it is strange that the fact was not re-
ported to the police. On the other
aand, some believe that it may be a
case Of suicide or foul play.
There are several deep holes in the
liver above the Jones ford bridge,
where it would be possible for body |

will be instituted to ascertain whether /
here is any further clue to the owner.

ANDREWS FILES.
He Will Conduct a Campaign
of Ideas.
States in an Interview the Points on
Which He Will Go Before
the People.

c.. N. Andrews has forwarded his
declaration of candidacy for congress-,
subject to the Democratic primary
election, to st. Paul to be fled accord
ing to law. He will put up an active
campaign against Congressman Nc
Cleary. and expects to give one ad-
dress in Mankato. He is 80 bold as to
profess hope of being elected in this
strong Republican district, and at
worst expects to hold McCleary's ma
jority down to the minimum.
In speaking of his%candidacy today,
Mr.. Andrews said to The Free Press !:
IF am nominated l would like to
see a clean campaign and one where
public measures, rather than men,
are the issues. On the vital questions
of the tariff and the trusts 1 feel that
I represent the interests of the people
of this district, and that, Judging by
his record, our present onspicuously
able and distinguished congressman
does not.
my proposition is that trusts
menace the public welfare, for lack of
control, and that they are fostered by
protection laws.
THAT the present high tariffs bear
heavily upon agricultural districts
with practically no resulting benefit.
THAT during the last ten years the
present incumbent has assisted to
make these laws, belives in and de-
tends them, and his return to con-
sress will mean the entire approval of
hem by voters of this district.
The only way to make an effective
protest In this election is by sending
! Democrat to congress, which will
open the eyes of the eastern protection |
element of the Republican party,
which dominates it, to the fact that |
western Republicans will no longer
,lindly follow their lead.
81 hope to go over the district very
thoroughly and shall maintain that it |
g no personal matter but the cause of |
he people, and if they take these |
Questions up in spirit of enlightened
elf interest and have the courage of
heir convictions I will be easily
lected. ''E-
Mr.. Andrews is we'll known at
orney, a pleasing speaker, and the
will surely be clean and
levating one, dealing with ideas
ather than prejudice
