TIvoLI NOTES.

N. Bennett and Lottie Bennett spent
Sunday with Mr.. and Mrs. F. Buchholtz
of Mcpherson.
II. Buchholz's colt got into the wire
fence and nearly cut one foot off.
Misses Oracle and Pearl Buchholtz of
Mcpherson are visiting at the home of
their grandparents, Mr.. and Mrs. N.
Bennett.
Mrs. L. Aldrich returned to her home
in Mankato Saturday.
A number from this place attended the
entertainment at St. Clair Friday eve
ming.
II. Buchholtz finds that fishing and
blowing corn do not work together.
While out in the field blowing corn near
the river he left his horses standing,
telling his father to watch them. Mr..
Buchholtz was more interested in watch
ing the fishing than in watching the
horses. The horses walked off across the
field blowing a row of corn, but in
stead of turning around and going back
they walked out of the gate and started
off on run. They ran some distance
before they were stopped, breaking the
cultivator and Gripping one horse.
Mr.. Tanner and family attended the
memorial exercises in Mankato Monday.
A number of people gathered at the
cemetery Monday to pay tribute to their
dead.

PUMP HOUSE is BLOWN
Station at MapIeton Wrec ked
This Afternoon.
Engineer 0steboe Quite Ser.
iousIy Injured.
From Thursdays Daily.

Gas in the well which supplies Maple
ton village with water exploded shortly
after two o'clock this afternoon, destroy
ing the pumping station and seriously
injuring the engineer, A. M. Osteboe
who was standing in the doorway of the
pumping house. Mr.. Osteboe was car.
ried distance of twenty five feet and
his escape from instant death is re-
garded as something miraculous. Had
, the engineer been within the building
he certainly would have been killed.
The pumping station is a complete
wreck. 1t was brick structure about
twelve feet square, and it will necessi
tate the expenditure of about $500 to re-
place it. Fortunately the engine was
! not injured and the water service will
not be crippled.
This is the second time in two months
that an explosion has occurred in the
well. In the former explosion two meI
were almost suffocated. 1t is suspected
that gasoline from the engine leaked
down into the well, and gas forming
caused the explosion.
Mr.. Osteboe was enabled to walk te
a doctors office where he received treat.
ment for the numerous burns on his
body and hands. No one else was in the
building at the time of the explosion.

From Thursdays Daily.
Decorations of the main parts of the
city were discussed and passed upon
at last nights meeting of the committee

500 REWARD, 500,

The readers of this paper will be pleas
ed to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all it's stages and that
is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the
only positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a con-
stitutional disease, requires a constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is
taken internally, acting directly upon the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing it's work. The
proprietors have SO much faith IN its cur
dred Dollars for any case that 1t fails to
cure. Send for list of testimonials.

SPECIFICATIONS CONSIDERED
Aldermen and City officials Prepare
to Get Paving Bids.

The aldermen, mayor, president of the
board of public works, city engineer and
city attorney held an informal meeting
at the city hall last evening for the pur-
pose of reading over the specifications
for the proposed brick and asphalt paw
ing and macadamizing that is proposed
to be done the present year. The speci-
fications were gone over slowly and care
fully, and several minor changes were
suggested, otherwise they were accept
able to the council.
The changes will be made before the
meeting of the council tomorrow night.
when the specifications will be ready to
be submitted and adopted. They are
said to be very complete in their de-
tails and to provide for thoroughly first
class work in both the paving and ma
cadamizing.
The board of public works will present
its report upon the estimated cost of
paving with brick and asphalt and ma
cadamizing at the meeting tomorrow
night, and it is believed that the mat
ter will be referred back to the board
| to obtain bids.
1t has been demonstrated to the salts
faction of the aldermen that the present
| macadam on Front street cannot be
lused as a base for either brick or as.
phalt paving, for if it should be used and
the pavecent turned out faulty the con
tractors could not be held, as they would
blame the trouble upon the old broken
stone layer under the pavement.
The cost of the paving will therefore
be slightly greater than has been est
mated, and the cost of matchmaking
Fifth street will be slightly less, accord
ing to the estimates to be presented tc
the council.
