Neis Anderson Former Mankato Boy,
Run Over BY Cars.
From EridaY's Daily.

Nels Anderson, 677 Wells street, ST.
Paul, switchman for the Omaha Rail
way company, was cut to pieces in the
East st. Paul yards early yesterday
morning. The finding of fragments OF a
human body along the tracks was the
first intimation that the members of the
yard crew had of his death. The time
and manner in which Anderson was kill
ed is not known.
Anderson was weight years old.
He was not a skilled switchman, al
though he had worked for the company
as car repairer for some years. He was
married in Wisconsin year ago. A
child was born to Mr.. and Mrs. Ander-
son a few days ago. Switchmen's I'm
ion No. 81 will have charge of Ander-
sons funeral.
Coroner Miller is investigating the
cause of the mans death. 1t is thought
that the body was dragged up and down
the tracks for nearly an hour.

people in Mankato, having lived in the
city five or six years. during which time
he worked as car repairer for the
Omaha Railway company. About eight
years ago, he left Mankato and went

Corn Huskers Busy--More Building
in the Village.

Corn husking is occupying the most
attention at present. The crop is large,
on man reporting seventy-five bushels
to the acre. Yet so much feed is need
ed for the constantly increasing herds
little on the market. As to oats, James
vile is the nearest supply point. Those
who do not raise their own 1eed are gen.
orally at the mercy of chance.
Still we grow. 1t is reported that the
owner of the building wherein John VOL
colts business is located, John Larson,
will soon move to st. Clair and live in
the Juliar house near the Congregational
church. This will be the fifth family adj
ded to our population in the space of
three months. There are no vacant
houses.
The dance at the hall Tuesday night,
though not so largely attended as was
expected, was very enjoyable affair.
There is some talk of continuing the par
ties through the medium of club.
This will tend to sustain the high tone
of the affairs, yhile it need not make
them so exclusive as to deserve criti-
cism. A regularly governed party is
always productive of the best results.
Mrs. and Mrs. c. J. Pagenkopf, Mr.. and
Mrs. Hubert Bruels, Joseph and Fred
Wingen, Charles Kruse and Henry Fos7
ter are in st. Louis visiting the fair.
Robert Brown and family will move
into the Thielman house, now Occupid by
the Chase and Campbell families. The
latter will return to Smiths Mills for the
winter.
Miss Odjard officiated in the primary
room of the school, Thursday, taking the
place of Miss Wingen The latter's sis
ter, Mrs. Peske, will substitute for her
until her health permits a return to
duty.
Miss Erna Lossow returned Saturday
night from weeks visit to Minneapolis.
Mr. Johnston will leave next week
with his son and daughter to spend the
winter in Houston county.
