plaintiff executed a mortgage on said tract of
land to one John C. Denner; that said mort
gage was subsequently assigned to one George
Weik. a son of the plaintiff; that the plaintiff
has paid and satisfied said mortgage debt and
all the interest thereon; that said defendant
has failed and neglected to either surrender
the mortgage and promissory note or TO release
the same on the mortgage records of Carroll

desired sale of the property without great and
unnecessary loss IN money; that the defendant
is a nonresident of the State of Maryland, and

Flooded--Craps Greatly Damaged. Rail
road Service Impeded Aud Street Cars
Operated Under Difficulties.
ST. PAUL, MISN., Sept. l2.-0ne Of
the heaviest transforms in recent years
ragged in St Paul and generally throughout
the Northwest last night.
The officially stated rainfall in this city,
was five inches for the II hours between
Z a. IN. and P. m. Many houses were
flooded and street car service was much
impeded.
Reports show that the rainstorm extend
ed from ElrOy, Wisconsin, to Sioux City,
Iowa, and that damage to grain viii be ex
tensive. Many acres of grain and fax in
shock viii be damaged, if not totally ruin
ed, causing loss Of thousands Of dollars
Nearly all railroads entering ST. Paul re-
port damage
The following specials to the Dispatch
indicate that the heavy rainfall was the
forerunner of a snowstorm of remarkable
severity for this section at the present sea
son of the year.
Dickinson, n. D.-Snow has been
falling ever since last night, and the ground
is covered six inches. The storm assumed
the proportions of blizzard, blowing down
trees and telegraph lines and delaying
traffic
STAPLES, NINA heavy, wet snow
has been falling here all morning This
was preceded by an all night rain, and the
outlook is gloomy for saving the crops.
A special to the Dispatch from New
Ulm, Mimi, reports four inches of rain in
that vicinity. The Cottonwood river is
out of its banks and bridge has been
washed away. Traffic on the Minneapolis
and St. Louis road is delayed because of
land slides and washout>. Hay and grain
on lowlands were seriously damaged.
RED LODGE, Mont, Sept IA
heavy snowstorm swept over Southern
Montana last night, and everything is COW
cred with a layer of snow about eight inch
es deep. Considerable grain is still stand
ing, and it probably is ruined. 1t is re-
ported that two feet of snow fell near Pry-
or Mountain.
YELLOWSTONE PARK, WYo., Sept
13.-Six inches Of snow on the level has
fallen throughout Yellowstone Park the
last As hours
MINNEAPoLIs, Sept. 13-It is inlpos
sible to estimate the amount of damage
done to the Northwest by the rains of Fri
day night and yesterday. At Minneapo
lis the fall reached five inches, and through
out the Northwest, according to reports
received by grain men, the fall was almost
as heavy. Millions of bushels of wheat
which, under ordinary circumstances would
have been graded high, is 50 reduced in
quality by the rains that it will, according
to some estimates, sell for from 10 cents
to 25 cents less bushel on account of the
storm. Conditions are said to be such that
unless there be favorable change in the
weather the mills in Minneapolis will be
facing serious crisis, for there will seem
ingly be no wheat of grade for them to
grind.

WHAT CURRENT WILL DO.
Many and Varied Uses Designed
For Electricity.
Numberless Little Helps For House.
J wives and Others.
Superintendent Wagner Finds De.
mand For New Novelties.

10 the person unfamiliar with the
progress being made in the world of
electricity, and, indeed, the great
majority of people are thus situated,
it is really surprising to learn of the
great number of electrical novelties
which supply houses are putting on the
market. Inventors in all parts of the
world are taxing their ingenuity to
develop this branch of the industry
and they may be said to be succeeding
admirably.
Housewives, cooks, timers, lunch
counter proprietors and other favored
persons have had convenient es de-
signed for their especial benefit and
they are of such character as to
make electricity almost indispensable
in the we'll regulated home. One of the
most popular devices is laundry
iron, which will recommend itself to
all laundresses from the fact that it
may be heated in an instant and that
in using it there is an escape from the
disagreeable heat of the ordinary pro-
cess. The irons are made in any shape
and weigh from 81 to 80 pounds.
For the kitchen the dealers in
supplies manufacture warming ovens,
pancake griddles, coasters and broilers,
heaters for tea pots and chatting dishes
and hot water heaters, while the
boudoir is provided for with a curling
iron heater. The up-to-date luch
counter of the near future will be fitted
up with heaters from 4 to Is inches in
diameter and will doubtless boast of
an electrical coffee urn, while timers
will do their soldering with current
passing directly through their irons
and heatthe composition in an electrical
solder pot.
Invalids and bed-ridden persons will
rejoice in the passing of the hot water
bottle, it having been superseded by
an electrical pad, and the comfort of
the aged and infrm is looked after

Money Invested in Printing.

The average capital of those engaged
in the printing business is Sl2, 574; the
average value of their products is
$14, 500. These figures compared with
those of previous decade show that
in a period of ten years an increased
capital is required to produce the same
or even smaller value of products;
this is largely caused by an increase
in wages and decrease in working
hours. In 1850 a composition in New
York received SO per week; ordinary
job compositors now receive $3.50 per
week, and operators on machines from
1924 to s27, depending on the time of
day or night they take their shift. In
the opinion of many large operators,
the number of wage earners has actually
increased rather than diminished. The
introduction of machine composition
has been of decided benefit to the
employee, offering new field for
endeavor There are few unemployed
men in the printing trade, as is shown
by the fact that when in 1900 the Typo
graphical Union was called upon to
supply $50 men for special job of
city printing, only 1O0could be obtained,
and these with difficulty. From Scien-

Office man cursed with cold floors these
articles will prove a veritable boon
and they are but one OF the many.
Air heaters in the forms of stoves or
radiators are offered and sets of
colored lamps for lighting trees at
Yuletide promise in time to replace
waxen candles.
At the municipal plant demand
for the new wares is beginning to be
felt and Superintendent Adolf Wagner
in finding sales for many of the
novelties. Electrical soldering irons
are now in use in the city and up
wards of a dozen of the andirons have
been purchased. A year ago the
Christmas tree at Turner Hall was
lighted with electric lights and this
winter Mr.. Wagner expects to send
smaller sets into a number of New
Ulm homes.

Four members of the board of county
commissioners, Chairman Andrew J..
Eckstein, Andrew Hoffmann, P. j.
Miller and Jesse Palmer, attended the
meeting of the state conference of
charities and corrections, held last
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
in Minneapolis. They report a very
profitable series of meetings and say
that all of the sessions we're we'll

On theclosing day Chairman Eckstein
read an able paper to the delegates on
''The County Relief of the Poor in
Their Homes.' It's length makes it
impossible for the Review to reproduce
in full but excerpts from it are
valuable. Mr.. Eckstein said, in part:
''In addressing you on the subject
of County Relief, I wish to adhere as
closely as possible to facts; that is, to
the experience of those who have had
to do with this class of work.
When we deal withquestions of charity,
we have subject of remarkable deli
| cacy-made SO by several reasons.
In the first place, there is an almost
imperceptible line that divides worthy
want and bogus want. Again, even
| where giving is called for, it some
times stimulates dependence, and not
infrequently leads the recipient into
ways that are more easy than profit
able. -..--..--:. $3.50
"Whi1e my own experience is not ex-
tensive, it has been the scource of a
greatdeal of Enlightenment to me so far
as caring for the poor is concerned.
Elected to the county board of COM
missioners of Brown county in 1900,
assumed my duties on the first of
January, 1901, and was subsequently
elected to the Office of chairman, which
I still hold. I mention this to show
that it is but recently that I have
entered actively into the subject of
county relief. In 1902 attended the
conference held in Rochester and
was deeply impressed with the work of
! that meeting. It is the duty of COM
missioners to gather the good from
these conferences and apply that good
practically. l.

should be enforced by the citizens.
The size and nature of this home may
vary, but it's existence is as important
as a county court house or county Jail.
Those counties that grant this neces-
sity, too frequently confound the poor
house with prison and act according
ly, until-from the Middle Ages-any-
thing savoring of a charitable institu-
ton has always carried the suggestion
with it of imprisonment.
"If the commissioner is to represent
his county, why should he not go a
little farther than signing checks and
look into the conditions of families?
To illustrate in a limited way: In
my district in one month I issued 20
relief orders aggregating S7l.50. This
outlay was quite an expense for my
district in a year, not to mention the
other four districts in the county. Be-
lievlng that it was my duty to person
ally look into the subject of relief I

WHERE TO CROSS RIVER
Railroad Officials Looked Over
Site For Trestle.
They Say Building of Minnesota
Central is Assured.
Party Paid a Brief Visit to New
Ulm Last Wednesday,.

Conflicting accounts of the intentions
of the Minnesota Central Railroad
company continue to be received.
Only short time ago one of the Off
Gals of the road informed New Ulm
man that the line would not be built
next year but last week at Mankato
this same gentleman seemed very
sanguine over the prospects. He gave
out a glowing interview and waxed
enthusiastic over the outlook.
Last Wednesday three of the officers,
Geo. r. Van Reed of Reading, Pa,
chief engineer; E. A. Dieter of Brown
ton, Mimi, field engineer; and G. 81.
Mckenzie of Gaylord, secretary, paid
New Ulm a brief visit. They came
over from Mankato on the l o'clock
passenger and remained in the city
less than an hour, going north over
the Minneapolis & st. Louis. No at
tempt was made to see any OF the local
shippers but at Mankato the trio were
very active. The Free Press of that
city, tells of their sdoings as follows:
The gentlemen stopped at the Saul
paugh and Tuesday morning hired a
livery rig and drove out to Sibley
park to look over the advantages and
disadvantages that locality showed
for the establishment of the road and
to decide if possible on plans for a
suitable terminus at Mankato. The
matter of more immediate interest,
however, was the railroad bridge that
the company contemplates construct
ing at the mouth Of the Blue Earth to-
support a single track leading across
the Minnesota river into Nicollet
county. -
The site for this bridge was survey
ed quite time ago and plans for the
same appear pretty we'll 1natured. 1t
is to be single tracked steel structure
to consist of three $50 foot spans, and
is to cost about $13O, 900. It is design
ed to build this bridge either this win
ter or in the early spring.
Plans for the terminal facilities are
