fleece, Antywine pretended he did not
know it. His hands and shoulders
worked as hard as his mind. With
shrugs and gesticulating fingers he
flung English spelling all around.
When he encountered terrific word he
would throw down his book and jump
on it. But Antywine's moccasins
were light; he did not damage the
learning under his feet. His RACES
were RACES of laughter. Whatever he
did SO delighted Peggy that she said:
1T makes me almost laugh out in
school to think how you dance on your
spsller!"

again in New Salem nor made any

These white men in this vilalge are
my friends; they will take my part.
The young chief Abe is as strong
as three Pedro Lorimers. and his hand

Every Sunday Mahala Cameron's
father preached in the schoolhouse, and
nearly all the people, whether they ac-
cepted the Cumberland Presbyterian
creed or not, went to the service. Wild
plum groves made bouquets of snow
on the prairies. The woods were full
of flowers, having such fragrance as
breaks only from old loan. All the
trees, from the rich green of the pc
can to the delicate and slowly Deepen
ing maple gave out their foliage to
the sun. The Judas tree burst out like
flame in the forest.
Happy boys were seen coming home
from the river Of evenings with strings
of croppies, bass. and pike. Half-yearly
muster day came, when the local mi
litia stepped out in awkward sqauds
and practiced such military tactics as
the leader knew to the squeak of a
fife and the thump of drum. Anty-
wine put himself among the boys. He
liked life and movement. But Shick-
shack stood and looked gloomily on.
He knew that his own people, the Sacs,
were being crowded in their reserva-
ton, and this play of war might some
time become reality. Whisky was plen-
tiful of muster days. Antywine no
ticed that Lincoln did not touch it.
Having considered the height and
strength of Sieur Abe, he also spat out
of his mouth taste of fiery stuff
pushed between his lips by a Grove
boy. and decided that he would fight
rather than be forced to drink.
Sticky Green and Ann Rutledge's
brother were home, working in their

at intervals during the summer The
boys and girls of New Salem found a
world of material for their own happi-
ness. There were cuttings, where the
older women labored in the afternoon
and young men and women came to
evening games.
Peggy Shickshack stood outside of
such festivities, and so did Antywine,
because the singular mother of their
household had no fellowship with the
mother of any other household. For
all the villagers began to look kindly
at the unfolding womanliness of the
lame Spaniard, the blond head of An
tywine, and the good old Indian who
loved white men.
But the festival that Peggy liked best
and was not left out of, was blackber-
rying. The girls rose at dawn and put

ncint~ent e the tavern with 1ls..ll1

Stock Raisers Of the Middle West Get
Tooether.

Chicago, Dec. l0--The Tribune today
says: Plans for the organization of a
stockholders combine, to embrace the
firms and ranches of the great Central
and Western country, have been launch
ed in Chicaso.
A prime aim will be to see that the
PACKERS do not continue to carry off the
lions share Of the profits on meats.
Frank j. Hagenbarth, the new president
|of the National Live Stock association
in outlining the purposes of the proposed
combine, said:
"For the purpose of organization, each
branch or interest connected with the
live stock industry will be regarded an
entry, or unit, and will form the basis.
Each will organize a general committee.
These will represent the interests of the
branches creating them and will select
la representative in central committee
which will be the whole executive au
thority of the association.
'The annual delegate conventions are
abandoned, and there will be held an
nual meetings, composed of all the gen.
eral committees in joint session.
"While every opportunity is provided
for the adjustment of differences be-
tween the branches, yet where such mat
tiers cannot be arranged they will be
left in the hands of the branches inter
ested to handle as they see fit, it being
understood that the national associa
ton can act only in such cases where
a community of interest is manifest.
"Under present conditions the cat
tie man and the sheep man and those
who furnish them credit are reduced to
the condition of gamblers. Who knows
today whether we are operating on
shortage or surplus of cattle? To cor
rect this evil we propose to ask for an
an annual census of live stock and farm
products. This work will go to the de-
partment of commerce and labor"

WANT MCCONNELL TO STAY.
Request to Be Made to Governor
Elect John A. Johnson.

from MONDAY Ddliy
A strong effort is to be made to in
duee Governor elect John A. Johnson to
allow W. w. p. Mcconnell to remain the
nominal head of the state dairy and
food commission until July l.
The reason given for this request is
that in thi, manner only can Mcconnell
continue to occupy the position of presi-
dent of the National Association of
State Dairy and Food departments, with
the idea that he will thus be able to
take charge of the convention of the
association to be held in Portland in
June.
Mr. Mcconnell becomes ineligible to be
president of the national organization
the moment he leaves the state dairy
and food commission office The con-
stitution of the association provides that
all officers must be active dairy and food
commissioners. Mr.McConnell was elect
ed to the office in October, at which
time the members of the association felt
certain that the republicans would carry
Minnesota, and that therefore he would
be retained in his position.
There is a general desire on the part
of members of the association, repre-
senting every state in the Union, and
nineteen foreign countries, that Mr.. Nc
COnnell be retained as nominal head of
the state department until July l, COW
ering the period of the convention. They
ask that it be so arranged that Z. X.
Slater, recently named for the place by
Mr.. johnson, assume the position of as
sistant until that time.

SEEKING DELAY.
Object Of Paving Case Argued In Su-
4 preme Court Today.


From Fridays Daily.
In the supreme court today was ar
gued the case of L. Patterson and others
VS.. the Barber Asphalt Paving company
and the city of Mankato. This is not
the main case, and yet the main issues
are said to be involved
The action was started to stop the
paving of South Broad street from War
rem south, and the city was made a
party to the action. The city is not
fighting the case, but is giving passive
assistance to the plaintiffs. When the
case was recently revived in the district
court, the Barber company demurred
to the plaintiffs reply to its supple
mental answer. The court overruled the
demurrer, and the Barber company APP
pealed to the supreme court, and it is
this appeal that was argued today. The
city took no part in the argument, but
II. J.. Schmitt appeared for the plain
tiffs and Carl Taylor of ST. Paul for the
Barber company.
There is said to be a race between the
Barber company and the plaintiffs and
the city to see which shall get judgment
first-the Barber company in the United
States court of appeals in the its suit
against the city to recover for the Broad
street paving, or the Others to get iudg-
ment in the Patterson suit in the dis
trict court. 1t is claimed that if Mr..
Patterson can get judgment first it
will have a favorable effect on the city
case in the United States court. When
the present appeal is decided, the case
will be for trial in the district court,
and after the trial the Barber company
will probably appeal again, so it, will be
some time before the case is ended. In
the meantime the Barber company ex-
poets the United States court of appeals
to pass upon its case against the city,
in which the latter has taken an APP
peal.

WANT BRICK PAVING.
Property Owners on Front and jackson
Ask for This.

]. H. Ray and j. B. Richards are cir
culating petition to the council ask
ing that Front and jackson streets be
paved with brick. The petitions have
been numerously signed, hardly prop
erty owner having refused to sign. The
petition also asks the council to extend
the payment over a period of ten years,
at six per cent interest.
The petition complies with the state
law under which the council proposes to
proceed with the work, and to come un-
der the law ree-fourths of the property
must be represented on the petition. 1t
looks as though more than this proper
ton would be secured.

ROUNDED UP AT SANBORN.
Men Who Are Supposed to Have Rob-
bed Sleepy Eye Store.


From Mondays Daily. G - 8.
Two men, supposed to be the parties
who burglarized the clothing store of
Salkowske, Glotzbach & Clausen at
Sleepy Eye, robbing the safe of 5000,
mention of which was made in The Free
Press Saturday evening, were arrested
at Sanborn, late Saturday afternoon,
They We're up for hearing at Sleepy
Eye today.
The burglars entered the front door
of the clothing store by saving a pan
mel. Previous to this they broke into
Kelm's carriage shop and broke open
the safe, but found no money. They
then took drill, saw and crowbar from
Kelm's place with which to do their
work After committing the deed the men
broke into a school house three miles
west of town, built fire and evidently
remained until morning. The three then
walked west to Golden, where two pur-
chased tickets to Lamberton. The
third was traced south.
As soon as the burglary was discov-
cred Mayor Olsen wired description
of the supposed criminals. The two
that went west stopped off at Sanborn,
where both were arrested. One purchased
a candle during the day at Patmore's
store, and another bought soap and cot.

these articles were found and recogniz-

Sleepy Eye has had no police protec
ton at night, but hereafter a Waterman

CORPSE FOUND NEAR MORGAN
Nothing to Indicate ldentity--Dead
Six Weeks.

The corpse of an unidentified man was
found in the. cornfeld of James B. Han
sen, three miles west of Morgan yester-
day afternoon. The body was badly
decomposed and was frozen, which
shows that it must have been in the
field at least six weeks. The coroner is
viewing the remains.
There is nothing in the clothing to
indicate identity. Only one person is
reported missing in the community and
he is known to be working somewhere
in the twin cities, so that the body
must be that of a stranger.
