INJUNCTION DENIED.
Judge Cray Files Orders in Two
Actions
From Fridays Daily.

NA0AA D1Js
Judge Cray has filed two decisions. He
discharged the order to show cause in the
injunction case of Henry C. Gerlach VS..
the city of Mankato. Mr.. Gerlach
brought the suit to restrain the city
from entering upon his premises and
laying a sidewalk. The city started
to lay walk recently along the Fulton
street side of Mr.. Gerlach's residence
property, going four feet into the prop
erty, according to the belief of Mr.. Ger
ZACH, and he brought the suit to restrain
the city from entering his premises and
tearing up his sod. He did not fight the
building of the walk in the location
where he thought it ought to be. Ar
thur Schaub was his attorney.
City Attorney Daily defended the
city and showed that if the walk was
laid where the city had started to lay
it the street would then be sixty-six
feet wide While there had been a mis-
take in some of the original surveys, the
plat had been filed properly and the city
was laying the walk where the records
showed that it should be laid
The hearing was had at the special
term of court Sept. 9th.

DECIDED BY ARBITRATION.
Mrs. Fosters House Was Damaged to
the Extent of $500.

Mrs. Ada Fosters house in Maple
ton was badly damaged by fire July 2Sd,
and there has been difference of opin-
ion as to what the damage amounted
to. The insurance company did not
wish to allow more than 5000, but it
was agreed to submit it to arbitration
and the arbitrators selected were w. Z.
Young, H. n. Leighton of Minneapolis
and w. n. Plymat of this city.
The arbitrator met yesterday at Ma
pleton and agreed upon $500 as the pro-
per amount to allow.

WAITING FOR NEW IDEA.
Subscribers For Magazine Wonder
When 1t viii Come.


That women are far more easily fool
ed and made to give up their money
than men is illustrated by an incident
occurring about a month ago in the up
per town. A man appeared at the door
of one house after another at time of
the day when he was not likely to find
any but the ladies in. He represented
himself to be an agent of the New Idea
Publishing company and that he was so
Letting subscriptions for that maya
zine, sample of which he had to
show. He insisted in each instance on
having the fifty cents of subscription
money paid down Immediately. He
then gave each supposed subscriber a
receipt, signed by the name of J. H.
Douglas, as agent for the New Idea Pub
fishing company. In one instance the
lady did not have the money with her
and the pretended agent came after it
the next day. The supposed agent de-
clared that he was not doing the solicit.
ing for his own sake, but to help poor
cripple, whom he named and whom no
body knew. The receipts that he gave
did not have the heading of the New
Idea Publishing company, and that fact
alone should have been enough to make
anybody suspicious. 1t would certainly
have aroused suspicion in the mind of
any man. The ladies have been waiting
patiently for their magazines. The sup
posed agent assured them that they
would receive the first number on the
following day. Neither he nor his maya
zines have been heard from since Aug 3
and 4.

TURNS TO RtPUBLIcANISM.
Judge William H. Barnes Of Tuscou. Has a
 Change Of Heart-tndorses Roosevelt

The St. Louis Globe Democrat in the issue of Sunday, September IS, published 5000 interview with Judge William Fl. Barnes of Arizona, who comes out for Roosevelt and gives his reasons therefor. Judge Barnes is a life long democrat, was appointed by President Cleveland member of the Arizona supreme court and is now general counsel for the Greene Consol- dated Copper company. The chief reason he gives for making the politi- cal change is that he believes the poli- cies of the republican party are better for the country than the programme of the democratic party which really promises nothing beneficial.
 The republican party, he says, is a party of action and accomplishment. The United States has grown great un- der its administration and Judge Bar nes says that if any of the policies by which it has attained greatness had not been carried out its growth and prosperity would have been retarded. He believes that further prosperity depends upon the retention of the re- publican party in power.
 Speaking of ''safe and sane" democ- racy, Judge Barnes says that while it is an improvement upon Bryanism and populism, it offers to the country no reason why there should be a change of administration. There is nothing in the St. Louis platform, nothing in the speech of acceptance of Judge Par ker to attract the independent voter, the businessman, the laborer or any other class of voters.
 Judge Barnes pays a glowing tri- bute to President Roosevelt and espec- ially comments him for his stand in the matter of reclamation of the arid lands.

iieved to account for the peculiar behavior of

Mrs George Winham Of No. 131 Brook-ave.,

strange actions at the time. he is said to have
cried and moaned for several days

now he refuses TO sleep in the afternoon and at
night unless he is placed in double bed.
When he awakes he reaches over to the other
side of the bed as if he expected to find his
brother lying there. At each appointment he
cries bitterly. He will eat unless plate,
knife and fork, a glass of water and food are
placed for the dead child.
Several physicians who have examined How
ard confess themselves puzzled by his case.
Lack of money has prevented the boys father
from taking him to specialists, but he expects
to be able to do as the result of a
suit he has pending against the New-York.

WONDER At CROWDS ON THE "L."
Despite Subway, $4,000 More Used 1t No
vember and Than on Those Dates of19O3.

In view of the subway having been in full oper
alton on November i and 2. Interborough officials
are somewhat puzzled to explain how it befell that
the total number of passengers carried the ele-
waited those two days was $4,000 greater than
the corresponding dates of 1903 when the sub
way was not in operation
According to PETERBOROUGH officials. the facts that
November l. 1903, a Sunday. and November 2
a Monday, and the day preceding the municipal
elections, do not wholly explain the excess of pas
sengers over corresponding dates last year.
1t is suggested that the progressive prosperity
Of the country under the Republican admnistra-
ton, the increase in population and the imrni-
nence OF the national and State elections this year
might furnish completer explanation.
1T is also true that the first four L days of
this month make a better showing than the cor
responding dates in 1908" Vice-President Bryan
of the Interborough Company told Tribune re-
porter. The subway he said. lis already car
rying as many passengers as the elevated road
The frequent observation of Tribune reporters
that the strongest demand of the public who ride
in the subway is not for local, but for express
trains, was amply found OUT by Mr.. BRYAN "Ac-
Cordingly we are making up express trains of
eight cars instead Of five as formerly he said.
