OLD HEADS THWART
YOUNG HEARTS BY
USE OF TELEPHONE
Young Earl Palmer of Mankato
and His 16-Year Old Sweet
heart, Ella Burgess, Prevented
From Securing License.

Strenuous use of the long distance
telephone, objection on the part of rel
atives, and the tender age Of the ap-
plicant, combined to defeat the inten-
tions of Earl Palmer, the seventeen
year-old son of George Palmer, OF
Mankato, who ran away from his home
yesterday morning and came to the
Twin Cities for the purpose of securing
a license for his marriage to Miss Ella
Burgess, pretty sixteen year-old girl,
of Bethany, Mo.
Miss Burgess formerly lived in Man
kato, and when she returned to that
town a few days ago to visit among
friends the childish affection which
had existed between her and young
Palmer was renewed with such Vigor
that they determined to wed at once.
Paternal consent was altogether out
Of the question, SO the youthful lovers
planned a way Of their own, to be de-
feated only at the last moment. Miss
Burgess took a sudden notion to go to
Minneapolis to visit her aunt there, so
she Informed her Mankato friends, the
plan being for young Palmer to meet
her there and secure a marriage
license. Yesterday morning the boy
left home early and sought out Miss
Burgess in Minneapolis, where she was
staying at the home of her aunt. To-
gether they went to the clerks office in
the court house and applied for a
license, but they had waited too long.

WHAT HAS BECOME
FRANK OF JUNEMAN?
Disappears on the Eve of Marriage
With $500 in His Pockets.

Special to The Globe.
HURON, S. D., July 22.-Excitement
has been occasioned here by the mys-
terious disappearance Of Frank June
man, a blacksmith in Ftf1e employ of
M. l.. Tobin. Mr.. Juneman failed to
keep an engagement of a business
character Monday evening. He was
engaged to marry a very estimable
woman of this city, the preparations
being practically completed, and the
date of the ceremony near at hand.
The business engagement referred to
was the perfecting Of deal for resi-
dence property in this city, to be oc-
cupied by the couple, and for which
furniture had been selected. Juneman
spent much of the time Sunday with
his betrothed, leaving her late at night
to go to his rooms, since which time
no trace of him has been had. He had
on his person at least $780, and this
fact leads to the belief that possibly
foul play has been practiced. The case
is being investigated.

the last time in life in the hall of the

Owing to the Big Crop the Great
NorthernandNorthe Pacific
Issue a Call for a Large
Army of Laborers.

The harvest fields of Northern Min
nesota and North Dakota are calling
for $4,000 men.
The reports received by the Northern
Pacific from their agents In this terri
tory show that this many hands will
be needed, and given ample opportunity
to secure work from the first part Of
August until well into the autumn,
at wages of from 50 to So per day.
The replies received from the various
agents have been tabulated. SO as to
give the number of men needed at
each station, the. date when harvesting
will begin, and the wages paid. The
Northern Pacific has already prepared
a circular giving this information,
which is being sent to general and
district passenger agents. and a sim
liar circular is in process of prepara-
ton at the Great Northern offices.
1t is worthy of note perhaps that
the demand of many Minnesota sta
tions has decreased, as compared with
former years. This. it is claimed, is
due to the increase in more diversified
farm operations and dairying, which
require more hands the year round,
but do not make so great a concentrate
ed demand for help during the COM
paratively short harvest season. as do
regions where grain growing is still
the chief form of agriculture.
Of, the fifty-fye stations on the
