Mankato, MIMI Sept. 13.-The Daily Free
Press of this city. which is supporting Miller

congressional district in order to ascertain the
sentiment in regard to the two republican candi-
dates for congress, Congressman McCleary and
Senator II. ]. Miller of Luverne. His reports

the villages visited the sentiment in favor of a
change seemed to be overwhelming, while in
others there was more division
Candidates for the county Offices in Blue Earth
county, who have canvassed the county in their
own interests and taken no hand in the congress
sional fight, say that the feeling among the
voters of the county is strongly in favor of Mil
Ter, and that he will undoubtedly carry the
county.
Both candidates are putting forth their strong
est efforts. McCleary had such fight
on his hands in the district before, to judge
by the amount of work that is being done in
his campaign headquarters. He has rented an
entire storeroom and has had a hundred clerks
at work in his literary bureau.

Miss Maud Il. Piec>on. youngest
daughter of Mss. NJ. j. Pierson, and
Mr.. Thomas P Lyman were married
at 8 O'Clock Thursday eve at the home
of the brides mother on Sumter
Street, Rev. n. W. Edmunds perform
ing the ceremony.
The marriage was quiet home affair
and only the immediate families OF the
bride and groom were present.
The parlor. in which the ceremony
was performed, was simply, but taste
ully decorated in green and white. The
bride wore handsome gown of crepe
de che,ne and held in her hands an ex-
quisite bouquet of brides roses. Miss
Beaufort Brand, cousin of the bride,
played the wedding march which an.
nounced the entry of the bride and
groom into the parlor where the guests
we're assembled.
Following the ceremony, refresh
ments were served prior to the depar-
ture of Mr.. and Mrs. Lyman on their
bridal tour. They left on the 9.9c
train for St. Louis where they will
spend ten days or two weeks.

The Foot Ball Game.

The agreement between South Car
olina College and Washington and Lee
University has been closed and the
foot ball teams from the two colleges
will meet in Sumter at the base ball
park, on Thanksgiving day. This
news is, indeed very welcome. a
game between two teams of such high
standing, will necessarily be good
one, and it will be one of the best
drawing cards of the Festival. Mr..
Lumpkin, of S. G. College, said this
morning that every student at the col
lege would spend Thanksgiving day
in Sumter, and that a number of them
would remain il. the city for the rest
of the week.
Washington and Lea University has
q large body OF almni in the State,
who will be sure to see the game, and
it is certain that Thanksgiving day will
be the red letter day of the Festival.
Everyone should go to the great game.

Depot.

A carload of four Hartford Automo-
biles, made by the Pope Manufactar-
ing Company, and consigned to Mr..
T. B. jenkins were unloaded at the
Southern freight depot Saturday morn
ing. Contrary to the general opinion,
these cars are not the property Of the
Pope Co., but have been purchased by
Mr.. jenkins; nor are they racing ma
hcines, as has been reported, but are
regular stock cars, being specially
constructed for lilly aud sandy coun-
tries. These automobiles have been
brought to Sumter for sale, and one
has already been purchased by DR..
Chas. B. Geiger, of Manning, and il
is Mr.. jenkins desire to dispose OF
the remainder of the carload before OF
during the Festival.
Mr. VIM. Jose, of Hartford Connec-
ticut accompanied the cars to Sumter,
and is experimenting the unloading
and putting up of the machines. He
will remain in Sumter. until after the
Festival, and will be engaged in dem
onstraring aud taking orders for his
fne cars. All those that are not sold
prior to the automobile races will, of
course, be entered for the prizes, and
will be run by Messrs. Jose and 0enk-
ins.
Mr.. jenkins has ordered a Pope
Tribune. which will be displayed
during the Festival. and will be run
by Mr.. Jose in the races.
Mr.. jenkins desires it distinctly un-
derstood that these are not racing MAJ
chimes, but are road cars of high
type. ans built for family use. He
