honor would be best conserved by her
arranging to have few drops of blood

man was astonished to see young
girl running after and trying to catch

never seen that station. For several
years she had attended school, and
knew a good deal about Central

reward of $50, 900 for remedy for the

Erop, MoDdav's Daily
From Mondays Daily.


The council at its last meeting voted
w. II. Anderson $25 as a testimonial for
his heroism in trying to rescue Amund
Olson's young son.
He today turned the money over to
Mr.. Olson, and has his receipt for it.
This generous act has caused much IA
vorable comment to be passed, and he is
certainly entitled to a great deal OF
praise.
Mr.. Anderson has filed the following
letter with the city recorder:
''Mankato, Mimi, Sept. 81, 1908.
sTo the Honorable Mayor and City
Council, Mankato, MINI. Gentlemen:
have this day received your draft of $25
which was voted to me by your honor
able body at your last meeting in recog-
milton of my services in finding the body
of Richard Olson in the river near the
park.
81 hesitate very much to receive this
kind offer of yours, because of my be-
lief that I did only my simple duty in
thus attempting to rescue the boy, and
my only regret is that 1 did not arrive
sooner, for | am convinced that in that
case the boy might have been saved. In
disposing of this matter, wish to state
to you that l have today delivered your
full gift of $25 to the family of the
boy, as 1 believe they are worthy and
in need of same.
Thanking you again for your kindly
recognition of my services in this matter,
and believing that my action in dis
posing of this money will meet with
your approval, l remain,
Sincerely yours,
''W. H. ANDERSON"
