St. Petersburg. September 10. 3:55 a. m. Intense activity is being displayed by some anti-Russian revolutionary organi- zations abroad.

He Raised it Two.

On Saturday last, H. B. Pressly,
who had been employed at the Keller
factory for about three weeks, pre-
scented to the book-keeper of that
institution telegram summoning
the young man home on account of
sickness. He had $13 coming to him
which was paid to him in a check.
Young Pressly raised the check So
and got it cashed at John Miller's
saloon. Mr.. Miller phoned to the
book-keeper if the check was all right
and learned that the check had been
raised. He Immediately had the
guilty party arrested. He was taken
to st. Cloud by officer Connolly, on
Monday and will have his hearing
before the grand jury today.
Pressly is but 10 years of age and
the son of an ex-member of the Iowa
state legislature. His parents are
quite we'll to do and have, it is under
stood, needed his request for funds
to pay an attorney. He is a school
teacher by profession and carried two
certificates with him when arrested.
This is his first offense against the
law. He explains that the cause oil
his downfall was lack of funds with
which to get home.

his influence also the grades donated
the kindergarten chairs. Owing to
lack of funds, the children's room
will not be opened at present, fact
very much regretted.
The reference room, the outgrowth
of the reading room, is in the south
west corner and is an attractive one.
Extra shelving has made it possible
to place thereon many books from the
stack room too heavy or too valuable
for circulation, but fine for reference,
Here there are 232 volumes of bound
magazines and many of temporary
binding, Poole's Index, Readers
Guide, Warmers Library, encyclo-
pedias, dictionaries, etc. This room
is to be reserved exclusively for quiet
reading and study. The teachers are
given special privileges, and are
invited to cooperate with the librarian
to aid the students in their reading
and study.
The librarians desk is at the rear
OF the corridor, commanding clear
view OF the whole floor, and convenient
to the stack room which extends back
from it.
The large and well-lighted basement
gives ample room for the heating
apparatus, storage, toilets and large
lecture rooms.

An Old Settler of Benton
County Passes Away.

Mrs. Nancy w. Gilman, widow of
the late Hon. David Gilman, died at
the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Bickerman of Watab, on the 9th
instant, aged 85 years.
She with her husband, settled in
Benton county in 1848, where he died
in 1885. She has been continuous
resident of that county for fifty-six
years. She is survived by one son,
John D. L. Gilman and one daughter,
Mrs. Bickerman, who were both born
and still reside in Benton county, also
by numerous grandchildren and one
great-grand-child. One brother, Mr..
P. Lamb of this city, and one sister
also survive her.
Her funeral was largely attended at
Sank Rapids, on the 18th, from the
Methodist church. The services were
conducted by Rev. Jones OF st. Cloud.

KILLED AT HIxON.

On Monday night George Kahn, a
fireman on passenger train, No. 26,
OF the Great Northern, was killed at
Hixon, about six miles from Crooks
ton. There is a siding at that place
and freight train had pulled onto
it to allow No. 26 to pass. AS the
passenger train approached the siding
it was tagged by the freight. En-
gineer Bopery of the passenger, set
the air brake.
Kahn at the time was coaling the
engine, and it is supposed that he
stepped out onto the gangway of the
engine to see what the trouble was,
and he either slipped or the sudden
jar OF the train as it came to stop
threw him from the cab. The en-
gineer was signaled to 60 ahead and
he did not miss his fireman until he
had run about a mile or so. The
train was stopped and backed up to
the siding where the fireman was
found lying unconscious. He was put
onto the train and carried to Crookston
where he was taken to the hospital.
1t was found that his skull was
fractured. He lived about an hour
after he arrived at the hospital.
George Kahn was but % years old.
He was held in the highest esteem by
his fellow workmen, bright and
intelligent young man, we'll liked
and respected by all with whom he
came in contact. He was a member
OF Algonquin Lodge, B. of L. F., No.
567, of Larimore, N. D., of which
Theodore Roosevelt is an honorary
member. He was universally loved
by all his comrades. He was a man
who possessed those qualities that
made him a favorite with all the
members and no one was more well
coined, and will be missed more than
George Kahn.
He leaves besides his parents, three
brothers and three sisters, who reside
at Willard.
His remains were brought to this
city today, and will be taken to Viii
lard on the afternoon train. The
funeral will be held at that place
tomorrow.
MIR. Kahn carried insurance policies
in the B. of L. F. lodge, in the
Continental and The Travellers Acct
dent Insurance Companies.
Mr.. Kahn was well liked by the
Great Northern Company and in all
probability would have soon been
promoted.
About sixteen members of his lodge
will attend the funeral, among those
who will be 49, present, are:l
j. A. Ramsey, A. E.. Arnold, Severt
Hall, FL. Rosenquist, Robert Steven
son, A. j. Lee, E. L. Ebbighausen
and Robert Billings.
The most heartfelt sympathies are
extended to his parents, brothers and
sisters in their sad hour of bereave-
ment.

Before the removal of the Library
to its new home the books were CLASH
fed according to the Dewey system
and dictionary card catalogue pre-
pared. This important work was
done by Miss Baldwin, secretary of
the Minnesota State Library Commits
sion, assisted by Mrs. Jacobson.
AS far as current duties of the
librarian will permit work will be
continued on the revision of the
catalogue with view to a fuller
analysis of subjects.
The new Library was first opened
for the issuance of books Saturday,
Nov. II, with $500 volumes on the
shelves. The hundreds of public
documents have not been catalegued
and therefore are not included in the
number given above. Among the
books catalogued beside fiction) are
1874 books of travel, 355 of biography,
$40 of history, 449 of literature, 227 of
natural science, $50 on religion, be-
sides works on philology, sociology,
fine and useful arts and philosophy.
Deeming it OF especial importance
that public library should lack no
record which can illustrate the towns
birth and growth or ,perpetuate the
!, memory of its worthy citizens, any
material PERTAINING to the history of
Sank Centre or Stearns Co. will be
gladly received and carefully pre-
served.
Gsift of books, magazines, works of
art, or of money for purchasing books
or for any of the uses of the Library
are solicited and due credit will be
given, thus aiding in making the
Library strong educational, refining
and uplifting influence in this COM
munity.
The members Of the Library Board
who have served so efficiently during
the erection of the new building are:
President, Mr.. j. A. Norris; DR..
Dubois, M. G. Kelsey, DR.. E. J.
Lewis, Mrs. A. Barto, Mrs. Lyman
Barto, Rev. Garland and F. w.

Treasurer Kepoikai talks sense when
he says that this is no time for Hawaii
to be building armorfes. Under certain
circumstances a National Guard be-
comes a luxury; and such circum-
stances seem to have arisen in Hawaii
where funds are low and where the
United States maintains a sufficient
garrison to keep order. That the Fed
eral arm is willing and prompt to in
tervene when needed, was shown dur
ing the great Chinatown fire when Col
Mills brought his command into town
The Advertiser is not prepared to sug-
gest the disarmament of the militia,
but it feels that the cost of maintaining
it should be kept, during hard times
at the lowest practicable figure There
is no memorable need for armories. but
there are needs of the most pressing
kind which the armory money would
meet.

THE CHANGE IN KONA.

1t is cheerful to learn that new out
side capital can still be depended on to
take hold of sugar propositions in Ha-
vail The news about the disposition
of Kona is altogether reassuring. That
fine estate has found d San Francisco
purchaser who will reorganize it with a
capital of half a million dollars and
proceed to grow cane. Mr.. c. j. Hut
chins, who retains the mill and the un-
assignable leases, will do the grinding
and probably be the agent of the new
corporation.
This settlement of the affairs of a
hitherto mismanaged company, while of
interest and value to the Territory, is
of special advantage to the Kona dis
trict, the industries and hopes of which
it will revive. There will be large and
valuable improvements on the estate
and a new spirit and vim in it's enter
prises. Kona is all right as a producer
all it needed was the kind of reorgan-
ization it is now to have.
