SHEDS AND TRACKS.
North Fourth Street People Want

North Fourth Street People Want
Them Removed.
From Wednesdays Daily.
Residents living on North Fourth
street do not want the Standard Lumber
company to place its coal sheds on the
railroad property on the triangle owned
by the Omaha road just south of the
Standard Brewing company's plant.
They are in hopes of getting the tracks
removed from that neighborhood alto
gether sometime, and do not want any
thing more located there that will give
an excuse for maintaining the tracks
in the Objectionable place.
The tracks have been removed from
three half blocks, and as far north as
the extension of Spring street. The
owners now desire that two of
the present three tracks be removed to a
point north of Rock street, leaving only
the track used by the brewery and max
ing only one track to cross at Rock
street. 1t is to be hoped that the STAN
dard Lumber company will see that it is
to its interest that some other loca-
ton be found for its coal sheds, and
thus accommodate the people living in
that section. The people in general
would also like to see this done.

Board of Public Works Will Receive
Paving Bids Aug. 9Th.
From Tuesdays Daily.
The board of public works has set
Tuesday, August 9th. at 8 p. m. as the
time for opening bids for the paving of
Front, jackson, South Broad and Lin
coin streets. An advertisement to this
effect will be inserted in this weeks is
sue of the engineering journals in Min
neapolis and New York. Judge Porter
has personally informed the Mccarthy
Improvement company of Davenport,
Iowa, by wire, that bids had been re-
advertised for.
Mr.. Mccarthy, in his talk yesterday,
said that he was prepared to come to
Mankato next week and begin work if
his company got the contract, and that
he would give Mankato good job.
Toronto has reported that the Acme
brand of asphalt has been laid there for
two or three years and thus far has
given good satisfaction.
The board has no intention, as was
published by local paper yesterday, of
extending the district to be paved on
Front street to Carroll, and has never
even considered the matter.

FOUGHT WITH BEES
Eight People Have Lively Time
at koppen Residence.
Street Car Committee Will Soon
Have $4,000 Subscribed.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
Eight people, team of bronchoes and
three swarms of bees had a lively time
together yesterday afternoon about four
o'clock at the Koppen residence on
Charles street, North Mankato. The
human beings involved were Mr.. and
Mrs. John Koppen ST., John Koppen Jr.,
Terry Olson, Roy Simonds, Phil Heydon,
Will Stewart and Mrs. William Nichols.
A wagonload of vegetable produce had
just been drawn in from the fields and
was being prepared for the market. In
some way the horses walked into a
swarm of bees and were soon prancing
about, and kicking over the hives, stimu-
lated by the sharp points of a thousand
tiny stings. John Koppen Sr. rushed in
to the melee and cut the horses loose
and the bronchoes made the best of
their way to the barn, followed by the
Infatuated insects.
Others, who were standing by, rushed
to the assistance and Mr.. Koppen, and
soon the whole party became a gen.
eral object of the indicative wrath of
all three swarms. After driving the
bees off the horses with water, the peo-
pie made the best of their way into the
house. John Koppen Sr. had been stung
the worst; so badly, that he is confined
to his bed today. John Koppen Jr. and
Terry Olson also went to bed, but are
up today. A doctor was sent for, and
the usual remedies were brought.
All the rest of the afternoon it was
not safe for anyone to venture out into
the yard, as the angry little honey max
ers kept buzzing about and looking for
trouble. Even today, no one dared &c
near the hive.

1t Is Claimed That They Passed
Checks at Sioux City.
Admissions Made BY Woman
Contradict Interview.
Do Not Believe She Is as Inn0-
cent as She Claims.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
Sheriff Williams has received letter
from w. C. Davenport of Sioux City
Iowa, former chief of police of that place
but now private detective, saying that
he is doing some work for parties there
The letter is dated yesterday, and says:
'T want a man and woman that went
under the name of j. w. Wilson and wife
in this city. They left here on the night
of July Goth. Got tickets to Sioux Falls,
and I understand from Chief Martin of
there that you now have the woman in
jail at your place and the man got away.
I want them for passing forged checks
Mr.. Davenport asks for a photograph of
the woman, and says that if the officials
here do not make out case against her
he wishes to be notified so that he can
come and get her.
It appears from this that the woman
in her interview yesterday did not tell
the truth when she said that she and
Wilson or Fox did not go to Sioux City
after leaving Mankato. She repeated
ly denied that they had been to Sioux
City, claiming that they had been only
to Wells and Sioux Falls.
Sheriff Williams states that the wom-
an admitted to him that she and
Fox had been to Sioux City after leav-
ing Mankato, and that she said that they
were afraid to return to Sioux City,
Savannah, Ill, or Dubuque, Iowa. She
admitted that she was mixed up in the
Savannah forgery, which she stoutly de-
MED yesterday when asked about it by
Free Press reporter. She also admitted
that the Chicago police are after her.
She said that she has been with Fox
continuously since the time that they
met at the dance in Chicago April LIST.
1t would appear from the different
stories that the young woman tells that
she is untrustworthy, and her statement
that she was forced to pass the checks
may well be doubted The officers be-
lieve that her record is not as good a
one as she tried to have it appear yes
terday.
The woman stated that she has friends
in Chicago, but that she will not inform
them of her present trouble or ask them
for aid, as she does not want them to
know of it.
1t is said that one of the officials at
Sioux Falls cut open the woman's sat
chel and distracted the contents, includ-
ing some diamond set bracelets and a
quantity of trinkets and keepsakes and
clothing. What right he had to do this
is to be investigated by the officials of
the county and city. 1t is said that this
is not the first time that this official
has done this, and that other parties in
tend to make him dig up.
Undoubtedly an effort will be made to
locate Fox, as he seems to be wanted in
a number of places.

CROP REPORT.
The Government Issues Its Weekly
Findings.
From Wednesdays Daily

From Wednesdays Daily.
Washington, July 27.-The weekly
crop report of the weather bureau, issued
yesterday, is as follows:
While rather cool for best results in
the lake regions and proportions of the
central valleys with lack of sunshine
and too much rain in the middle Allan
tic and central gulf states, the weather
conditions of the week ending July 25
as a whole were favorable.
While higher temperature in the ex-
IRENE northern portion of the corn belt
would have been more favorable, corn
has made an excellent growth and is in
most promising condition generally
throughout the corn belt. With another
week of favorable weather for harvesting
and threshing this work has advanced
satisfactorily, the harvesting of winter
wheat being nearly completed in the
more northerly sections. In the lower
Missouri valley continuous rains of pre-
vious weeks reduced the yield and low
cred the quality of much winter wheat
Some complaints of rust in spring
wheat are received from portions of
Iowa and South Dakota, but generally
the crop has advanced favorably al
though poor and weedy on lowlands in
northern Minnesota. The crop is ripen-
ing in the southern portions of the
spring wheat region, harvesting having
begun in Iowa. While early spring wheat
has been somewhat improved by rains in
Oregon much of the late sown has been
cut for hay. In Washington spring
wheat is backward and suffering from
drought.
Dat harvest has continued under favor
able conditions and is nearing completion
in the lower Missouri and Mississippi
valley. In the more northerly sections
the maturing of the crop is very prom
ing.
Tobacco continues to do we'll in nearly
all tobacco states the last favorable re-
ports being received from North Carolina
and Kentucky. In the lower Missouri,
central Mississippi and Ohio valleys and
over the southern portion of the middle
states the outlook for apples is
unfavorable but better prospects are re-
ported from New England, New York
and the lake region.
Nearly all reports indicate an abund-
ant crop of hay, which for the most part
is being secured in excellent condition.

FATALLY WOUNDED
Mark Alderman Dies From a
Gun Shot Wound.
from Tuesdays Daily.

rIou IueSudy Dally.
Mark, the seventeen year old son OF
George Nelson Alderman, prominent
resident of Medic, was fatally injured
Sunday by accidentally shooting him
self. He had been working for a neigh
boring farmer, and started for home
Sunday morning to spend the day with
his parents. He crossed small lake call
ed Clear lake in boat, taking a shot
gun with him.
When part way across the lake, the
young man saw blue crane, and stoop-
ed to pick up his gun to shoot at it.
As he drew the gun muzzle first toward
him, it was discharged, the contents
of one barrel entering his body just be-
low the heart. The charge passed through
his stomach, bowels and diaphram and
up into, the lungs.
The accident happened at about eleven
o'clock. Young Alderman pluckily
started for home, Notwithstanding his
terrible injuries. He was alone, and
pushed his boat as far as he could and
then walked through the mud and rushes
to the shore. There he lay down and
rested. Then he crawled on his hands and
knees to his fathers house, reaching
there two hours after the accident hap
pened.
Dr. O'Hara of Alma City was imme-
diately sent for, and arrived at 2:3O
o'clock. The injured boy had lost large
quantity of blood, but did not lose con-
seriousness for several hours. His in
juries had, of course, been fatal, and
all that could be done was to ease his
last moments. At nine o'clock the young
man died.
The accident cast a gloom over that
portion of the country, as the young
man was well known and we'll liked. He
seemed to have very promising future,
and his terrible accident was a severe
shock to everyone. His family have the
sympathy of all in their affliction.
The funeral occurred at Medic at ten
o'clock this forenoon, and was largely
attended.

SALET'S AUTOMOBILE IDEA
Figures on Running Half Hourly Corr
veyances the City's Length.
From Wednesdays Daily.

Leon Salet is looking for three or
four other men, who are willing to put in
$1,000 each to organize company for
the establishment and operation of an
automobile omnibus line to run up and
down Front street, from the Klondike
quarry all the way to the park. To start
two automobiles running along such a
route would require an outlay of about
$4,000, so he estimates. sHe figures on
having an automobile pass each way
every half hour. The fare is to be five
cents and six tickets are to be sold for
25 cents. Four men will have to be hired
to manipulate each automobile, as they
will have to relieve each other. The run
ming of each auto will cost about $40
per day. If the first two pay, it is
designed to add third later on.
The automobiles which it is proposed
to use will carry from twenty to twenty
five passengers each. They would run
from a. m. until midnight, and the re-
duced rates would be good from 6 to
a. m. and from 5 to p. m.

as he said he would and then in the event of its failure to do so. proceed to take the skin off of 1t in public. A Smith adherent said yesterday that 1t was not likely that MT. Smith could be induced to allude to the subject again in any of his future speeches and that it was equally unlikely that he would attempt to controvert any fr- ture statement that might be made by The Republican in relation to his pub lie life.
 MT. Smith satisfied himself by refer ence to the Congressional Record that he had misled his hearers last Monday night when he told them that he was not in congress at the time of the pas sage of the Utah bill and now his friends are beginning to hedge for him. They are saying, and it is reported that MT. Smith has since said, that he was not positive that night in his state- ment. That what he said was that he thought The Republican had erred. in connecting him with the events at tending the passage of the Utah bill.
 But the hearers of MT. Smith remem- Der that he was exceedingly positive. They remember his accommodating sar- casm which finally ended in his state ment that The Republican had lied for he was not in congress at the time of the passage of the bill but was engaged in the practice of law at Tucson
 Worse than all, Mir. Smith and his friends are trying to lay the blame for MT. smiths mistake upon Col. Wil- son, whom they have frequently before laden with the sins and mistakes of the party and sent out into the wilder ness. They say that on Monday Mir EVrafF h -g,.,H lr- what he was doing and where he was about the time of the passage of the Utah bill, telegraphed to Col. Wilson for information: that Col. Wilson in reply telegraphed NIT. Smith the mis- information which he dispensed to the democratic meeting at the Doris the ater.
