Want Guides to Insure.

The Swiss Alpine society has been
trying for some time to persuade all
guides to insure their lives, but with
only partial success. 1t now appeals to
all tourists to engage only such guides
as are insured, in order to prevent the
wretchedness caused by the death of
uninsured guides who have a family to

PROVE FATAL.
Chas. A. Sanborn Dies as a Result oil
ApopIectic Strokes.
From Mondays Daily.

Chas. A. Sanborn died at five o'clock
yesterday afternoon at his residence, ZIG
Hinckley street, from the effects of the
two strokes of apoplexy which he sus-
tanned Thursday morning last. He was
a well known resident, having lived in
Mankato for the past thirty years, and
was favorably known by all.
The deceased was born in Iowa in
1916, and leaves a wife and small family.
When he first located in Mankato he car
ried the mail between this city
and New Ulm. He assisted in the laying
of the horse car track, and drove the
first street car in the city. He was skill
full as gardner and of late years as
sisted E. j. Sheldon in sodding and land
scape gardening. He was the janitor of
the Presbyterian church.
Mr.. Sanborn was man of excellent
character, industrious, honest, and was a
model citizen. His unexpected death
causes sorrow among all who enjoyed
his acquaintance, and his family will
have the sympathy of all in their be-
reavement.
The funeral will occur in the Presby
terrain church tomorrow, and the inter
ment will be had at Glenwood cemetery.
The services will be held at ten o'clock.
The remains will be conveyed to the
church at nine o'clock and those who
wish to can view them

HAD A NARROW ESCAPE.
Judge Daniel Buck and Family Are
Almost Asphyxiated.
From MONDAYS Daily.

Last evening Judge Buck and his
family narrowly escaped fatal accident
from asphyXiation. In the afternoon the
judge started hard coal fire in their
furnace. The furnace did not seem to
have much draft and escaping gas was
noticed to some extent but no serious
inconvenience was anticipated. The
family retired at the usual time. After
an hour or more the judge experienced a
feeling of oppression and reused himself
sufficiently to open the doors and to
telephone for DIR. Beach. On the doctors
arrival he found the judges daughter,
Mrs. Abbott, in semiunconscious con-
dition and her two children and the
judge, though not unconscious all We're
suffering serious effects from the gas that
had been inhaled. Aid was summoned
and the family removed to a neighbors.
1t was an hour or more after the restora-
tives We're administered before Mrs. Alb
bott rcgained consciousness. All the
members of the family are comfortable
today although not entirely recovered. 1t
was Il very narrow escape and it was
most fortunate that the accident did
not have fatal termination.

THEIR GLORY Is NO MORE.
Cashmere Shawl Industry Is Almost
thing of the Past.
From FRIDAYS Daily.

Cashmere shawls are still made, but
their glory has departed and the cheap
and seductive aniline dye has displaced
the soft and beautiful colorings in the
old-time vegetable dyes. The men who
understand the manipulation have gone
to more lucrative fields or else they lie
in humble graveyards hard by the
struggling village streets of Cashmere.
The cashmere shawl industry received
its death blow during the Franco Prus-
sian war, at the breaking up of the
French court The shawls were brought
to France for the great Napoleon and
fashion Immediately set her seal upon
them. But when the court of Napoleon
III crumbled in the dust the vogue of the
cashmere shawl fell with it and famine
and distress invaded the far-away val
legs of Cashmere. Shadipore, which was
once one of the centers of the Cashmere
shawl industry, is beautifully located in
valley at the junction of Sind and Jhe-
lum rivers. But the village has shrunk
to a mere hamlet of rickety houses and
the luxuriant vegetation fails to cover its
baroness and poverty. What is left of
the shawl industry is carried on by boys
and men, who earn from 2 to 8 annas a
day, or from twopence to fourpence in
British coinage. For this beggarly sum
they sit all day long at the looms, which
are almost as forlorn as themselves in
appearance, for they date back to the
days of prosperity and are held together
by generous use of string.-London

WAS NOT HELD.
Valentine Miller Surrenders Himself
to the Authorities.
From Fridays Daily,


Valentine Miller, for whose arrest
Marshal Austin of Lake Crystal came to
the city day before yesterday, with a
warrant charging him with grand lar
ceny in the second degree in the taking
of 3,400 cigars claimed by j. E. Swenson
of Lake Crystal, presented himself to the
officer there that evening, saying that he
understood that he was wanted. The Of
ficer said that he guessed he would have
Mr.. Miller stay with him that night,
but Mr.. Miller said that he would fur
nish bail. The officer then took the man
before the justice, who asked to see the
warrant. When the paper was handed to
the justice the later threw it into the
waste basket and said to Miller that
he was free.
Miller came to Mankato last evening
and visited the police station and relat-
ed the circumstances of the case. His
friends are indignant over his arrest,
and threaten to make it warm for some
body. Miller is cigar maker and has al
ways borne an excellent reputation. Re-
Gently he embarked in business at Lake
Crystal in company with Mr.. Swenson,
who managed the business, while Miller
made the cigars. The venture proved a
losing one, and Miller claims to have
gotten little or nothing for his work.
He took the cigars that remained on the
advice OF an attorney.

Cold and Damp Air Makes Fires and
0vercoats Necessity.
Heavy Fall of Rain Continues, end
Farmers Lose Heavily.
Train Service Is Still Upset, But
Is improving.
The Minnesota Riyer Experiences a
Sudden RISE.
From Mondays Daily.

The rain has continued to fall almost
continually since Saturday and the dam
age inflicted upon the farmers will be
heavy, but just how much it is hard to
say. The Minneapolis Journal estimates
it at millions of dollars, the main item
being the depreciation in the grade of
wheat. There will be a heavy loss on
potatoes, also, as the crop is rotting in
the ground and it will be impossible for
some time to dig them. Even if the wea-
Their should clear up, the evaporation is
not as great now as two months ago, and
the ground would dry out very slowly,
and more rain could be expected before
it would be dry enough to go onto. The
same thing will prevent threshing and
the cutting OF corn, except on high
land.
\ decided drop in the temperature
occurred Saturday night, and fires were
very comfortable yesterday. The tenn
perature was still lower today, and q
heavy frost is predicted when it clears
up, if it should do so within a day or
so. Many people wore overcoats today.
The Minnesota river is rising rapidly,
having gone up several feet in the last
day or two. AS the rain has been general
over the northwest, the river will almost
certainly continue to rise for several
days. How high it will get can only be
conjectured.
The railroads continue to suffer from
the rain. which weakens the roadbeds and
causes land slides. Traffic was not inter
rupted as much today as Saturday, but
few if any of the trains were on time
The morning passenger trains from the
south on the Omaha road did not arrive
until noon either yesterday or today
There was a bad washout between
Worthington and Prairie Junction,
which was responsible for some of the
delay. The trains from the twin cities
We're nearly on time, being only twenty
or thirty minutes late.
The Milwaukee road was in better con-
dition today than Saturday. The morn
ing freight train arrived four hours late,
and the forenoon passenger train was
late. The main trouble Saturday was
coused by land slide.
The North Western and Great West
ern roads had but little trouble today.
There was quite demand for fuel to-
day. The rains have shut off the wood
supply, and inquiries for coal were nu-
merous this morning. The local dealers
will soon be cleaned out, unless new
stocks arrive.
