REWARD FOR BRUTE
Business Men Start Movement for
Purse for Capture of Assailant
of Jessie Thompson.
Charles G. Bateman Is Leader in the
Movement-O'her Merchants
Are Read<:i%dI :, Contribute.

A movement was started among the
business men of Ehe city this morning to
raise a purse as a reward for the cap
ture Of the man Ss'ho kidnapped little Jes-
sic Thompson flbm a buggy on Nicollet
avenue last Friday and took her to a
vacant house at $40. Second avenue S.
where he assaulted and otherwise mis-
treated her. The movement was started
by Charles G.. Bateman, proprietor Of Ye
Old Time Bakery, by whom Mr.. Thomp-
son, the girls father, was formerly en-
ployed.
Mr.. Bateman said to-day that while he
did not wish any credit for starting the
movement. he considered 1t the duty Of all
men to do what they could to aid in
the capturing of the man.
"Why, with suoh a brute as he Is at
large said Mr.. Bateman, "children are
not safe on the streets of the city. I feel
that a. sufficient reward should be offered
for the capture Of such a man as would
arouse the cupidity Of even his own con-
federates. He should be brought to
justice. If a sufficient reward is offered
for his capture, perhaps the woman who
called at the vacant residence, $40 Sec
ond avenue S, Friday afternoon and found
the man and the little girl in the house
will come to the police and tell what she
knows"
Mr.. Thompson. the little girls father
called at the wholesale house of Janney
Semple, Hill & Co.. where he worked al
one time. and laid the matter Of offering g
reward before the firm. They readily
agreed and contributed $50 to the fund
The Journal also adds s25 to the
fund, which Is rapidly growing.

H0MESTEADERS ARE SAD
Government Foils Their Plans to
Secure Cheap Lands in Milk
River District, Mont.

Disappointment Is in store for many
northwestern people who have been plan
ming to secure government land in the
Milk River country, NJ ontana, in order to
profit by the irrigation plans which the
government is about to put through in
that region.
The announcement made last week that
the secretary Of the interior had with
drawn the government lands in that re-
gion from entry under other than the
homestead act strikes hard on a. large
number of people in Minnesota and the
DakOtas.
Although the governments irrigation
scheme is new the hunger for cheap lands
in the northwest is so great that many
people were already canvasstng the OPP
portunity offered in the Milk River coun~
try. Many planned to file under other
acts besides the HON estead act. Others in
tending to homestead believed that the
same lax application of the homestead law
would be allowed in that country as had
been the case In the newer sections of the
Dakotas.
Married men have filed on lands in the
irrigation district, Intending to establish
residence by staying on the land a short
period during the year, which would make
$50 acres Of land in that region ''easy
money"
The announcement of the secretary OF
interior that this will not be allowed and
that a rigid application Of the homestead
law will be made has defeated many OF
these ambitious plans. The government
! intends to hold it's 100000 acres in the ir.
rigated district for bona f1de settlers only
| which means that persons filing on LAND
must live on the tract six months in the
year. Many of the people who proposed
filing on land in the Milk River country
would not live on the tract six months ir
the year for five times the amount Of LAND
which the homestead act allows.

Members of Committees Doing Heroic Work to
= Land the Business Candidate. - u. -
The contest for the republican nomination for
mayor Is developing the fact that, while: the
business man may be something; of novice in
politics.. when he. does get down to work he does
business affairs. The W. L.,tLuce campaign is
not five days old. and already it is assuming a
very aggressive shape. Aside from the quiet
work being performed by the earnest members
Of the w. l.. Luce committee and the former D.
Z. Jones committee and their friends, there has
been and is much public aggressive work being
DONE as the record of the last few days will
show. .... s,-+. ~ e.
There have been eleven large meetings taken
of and four large special w L. Luce meet
ings have been arranged for. Mr.. Luce and his
speakers have been going over the manufacturing
district, holding MONDAY meetings, accompanied
by music, which draws large crowds, and men,
bers of the force of speakers are busy day and
night. An immense meeting held Saturday noon
at the Backus Brooks mill was enormously re-
ported in the Times as having been a Haynes
meeting, when in fact Mr.. Haynes and his speak
ers We're the outside of the crowd, disap-
pointed at not having the field, and were courte-
ously invited up by Mr.. Luce and given q pOr-
ton of the time to address the men,, -
ers, and more are offering their services every
day, that there soon will be plenty to go
around to every meeting. Throughout Labor Day
a carriage tastefully decorated with W. l.. Luce
banners and posters paraded the streets, d1strib-
utipg w. l.. Luce literature, and every hour
seems to add to the good work being done. There
are still two weeks more in which to do good
ious to have the republican party have repre-.
sentative candidate opposed to the democratic
| nominee strong in the belief that they will

DON'TTRY PRESSURE.
Trust to Intelligence.

You cannot by process Of laws prevent
anyone from drugging themselves to
death. We must meet the evil by appeal
to the intelligence.
One Of the drugs that does the most
harm to Americans, because Of it's wide
spread use and it's apparent innocence, is
Coffee. Ask any regular coffee drinker If
he or she Is perfectly well. At least one
half are not. Only those with extra vigor
can keep well against the daily at
tack of caffeine Gin the coffee). The heart
and pulse gradually lose strength dys-
pepsia, kidney troubles and nervous dis
eases of some sort set in and the clearly
marked effects Of coffee poisoning are
shown. These are facts and worth any
ones thought. The reasonable and SEN
sible thing, is to leave it off and shift to
Postum Food Coffee. The poison that
has been secretly killing is thus withdrawn
and powerful rebuilding agent put to
work. The good effects will begin te
show inside of ten days. If health and
comfort are worth anything. to you, try it.

CLOSE CONTEST IN THIRD.
Nye and Shades Run Neck and Neck In
Aldermanlc Fiuht,

AIdermanlc Fight.
The withdrawal Of Hugh Wilson from
the third ward aldermanic fight leaves a
close contest for the republican nomina-
ton between W. F. Nye and M. w.
Smades. It is generally understood that
Mr.. Wilson's withdrawal Is In the in
terests Of Nye, as their support came
from much the same elements. Wilson
entered the field first, but later on Nye
was forced in, and Wilson's act is re-
garded as exceedingly magnanimous.
The third candidate, S. Swenson, is not
thought to have much strength, and the
fight is between Nye and Shades. 1t Is
close and hot, and republicans who de-
sire to see Kiichlf beaten deplore the
lengths to which it has gone.
On the democratic side, A. T. Grotte
and Fred Pratt are hustling hard, but as
they divide the Kiichli opposition it is
thought that the veteran will once more
be nominated.
