IDENTIFICATION SURE.
James Hodson Finds Belongings of
His Son.

From Tuesdays Daily.
James Hodson, who went to Morris,
Manitoba, to complete the Identification
of the young man who committed sui
eide there last July 9th as his son, will
probably return to Mankato tomorrow or
next day. He has written to members of
his family in this city that there is no
longer any doubt about the suicide being
his son, Louis, who disappeared last May,
and whose whereabouts after leaving
Minneapolis were mystery. The watch
found on the dead man was not the one
that he bought of G. D. Taylor, but it
has been ascertained that he traded
watches. A razor was found that he
bought of Henry Vogelpohl, and his
trunk was found, and in it was the diary
of the young man and picture of the
Judson young lady to whom he was en-
gagged to be married.

Fourteen Persons Charged With Crime
TO Be Investigated.
Plenty of Work for County Attorney
Wilson at This Term.
Interest will Settle About The Case Of
George KIughertz.
Variety Of Charges Preferred Against
Different People.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
District court convenes Wednesday
and the grand jury will have more cases
before it than any recent jury has had.
There are veriety of offenses, and
some of the charges are admitted by the
parties accused.
Happy Jack" We'll is accused of as
sault in the second degree upon Henry
Lynch of St. Clair, and the assault is
said to have been of a peculiarly aggra-
waited nature.
Frank Schmitz is charged with the
malicious destruction of personal prop
erty of the value of more than $40. He
is the man who tore the silk upholstery
from an expensive coffin in Lamm &
Landkammer's' undertaking rooms, and
went to sleep on it. It has not been
decided whether to press this charge or a
lighter one.
George Lodde of Mapleton is charged
with grand larceny in the second degree.
It is claimed that last August he stole
a watch from Alex McGregor who lives
south of Mapleton. /,
Fred Fox of Shelby is accused of
the crime of bastardy by Miss Martha
Holcomb. He is out on bail.
VIM. Hubmer must answer to charge
of perjury, because of his poor memory
when the liquor cases were being prose-
cuted last June. It is said that he tes-
titled to certain things before the grand
jury, but that he forgot about the mat
ter by the time he was called as a
witness in open court.
Ed. Somers is charged with taking in
decent liberties with Rubie Barnes, a
thirteen year old girl.
Joseph Lavinge, Leo. Hicks and VIM.
Richards are charged with burglarizing
Ellsworth Trimmings house in Vernon
Center township, and also other farm
houses. They are tough trio. The first
named is the one who tried to escape
from the Jail
Louis Walz is charged with grand lar
ceny in the second degree. John Temple,
an aged employee of the knitting mill,
claims that he was robbed of $85 in gold
ON June 2lst last. Wall denies that
he is the party who did the job, but on
the contrary that he befriended Temple
when the latter was under the influence
of liquor.
Al Cunning is charged with having
stolen gold filled watch from James
II. Foster of Wells. He claims that
another party took it.
The principal interest of the term will
center about the case of George Klug-
hertz, who is charged with forgery in the
first degree. He is the man accused
of having obtained ST. 900 from the Man.
kato Savings bank as loan on forged
deed, claiming that he was Frank Hin
mixer, the real owner of the property.
He denies the charge, and says he was
not the man who impersonated Hinniker.
The whole case depends upon the identi-
ication.
R. F. Sullivan, alias B. M. Ryan, is
charged with forgery in the second de-
gree. 1t is said that he passed a forged
order on VIM Schmidt, the saloon keep
er.
1t may be that the case of Roy Tay-
lor, charged with the theft of silver
watch from Peter Ulman, will come be-
fore the jury.

WAS EASY WINNER.
Mankato HIGHS Too Heavy and Fast
For MadeIia.

From Mondays Daily.
The football game Saturday afternoon
at Sibley park between the high school
teams of Mankato and Madelia was won
by the former by score of eleven to
nothing Prof. Hendricks of Sleepy Eye
and w. A. Plymat of this city alternated
as umpire and referee.
The Mankato team clearly showed su-
periority throughout the entire game
and scored on good, straight playing,
going through the Madelia lines and
around the ends almost at will. Madelia
gained small distances at times, but
could not make constant Roadway
against the heavier and faster Mankato
team.
O'Brien was the star ground gamer
for Mankato, and Coughlan was away
ahead of all in defensive work. He broke
through time and again and threw the
Madelia men for loss. The Mankato
team on the whole played good, consis-
tent game.

Pero acknowledgements, 6stas segui-

leyanta esos rumores que molestan 4
los grandes hombres. Por ejemplo....
Por ell puerto de New Orleans sola-
mente, Sc han exportado ell ano Cltimo
625, 600 quintales de arroz para Puerto
Rico. El hechO de que ell arrOz yenga
ahOra de Louisiana en- yez de Liver

zon de que la Tarifa Dingley, estable
ce un derecho de 81 por quintal al
arroz prOcedente del extranjero. Esto
Sc llama pgoteccj6n, una protection que
cuesta al consumidor de Puerto Rico
cerca de UN HIILLON Y MEDIC
POR ANO, pues en- Liverpool podria-
mos conseguir 4 SI-75 por quintal ell
arroz que en New Orleans cuesta 1878.
Aplicando esa misma teorfa protec-

La elocuencia de ese ejemplo excusa

be que atenerse. Las tribulaciones
econ6micas que sufre la isla obedecen
