From Mondays Daily.

H. J. Wagon, for some time agent for
the Chicago & Northwestern road in this
city, has been appointed travelling pas
senger and freight agent for the com
pany. This is another deserved pro-
motion for Mr.. Wagon, and the position
carries with it substantial increase in
salary Mr.. Wagon has been in the en-
ploy of the Chicago & Northwestern
road for seventeen years, beginning as
night operator. He has been most
faithful employee, always attending
strictly to business, with the interest of
the company always at heart. Mr..
Wagons many friends will rejoice over
his good fortune. His new duties will
not necessitate Mr.. Wagons removal
from the city. He will assume his new
duties Dec. l.
Chris Johnson, who has been travel
ing freight and passenger agent, will
succeed Mr.. Wagon as agent here. Mr..
Johnson's health of late has not been as
vigorous as formerly and he desired a
position which would not call him away
from home. Mr. johnson is clever
gentleman and he will prove to be a
courteous and accommodating official.

POCKETBo0K FOUND.
Rourke's Dope Story Is Now Dis.
posed Of.
From MONDAYS Daily.

+. S. Rourke, the man who suffered
from delirium tremens at the city hall
most of last week, was taken to his
home in Minneapolis yesterday by his
sister and brother law, who came af-
ter him. The pocketbook which he lost
on his arrival in Mankato was found and
restored to him. 1t contained twenty
cents and a ticket to Minneapolis, just
as stated by Rourke. 1t appears that
the pocketbook fell from his pocket
when he was placed in a hack at the
union depot and taken to the city hall,
and slipped under the mat. 1t was not
found until Friday night, when Clarence
Keech discovered it when he took up
the mat. Charles Scovell noticed
Rourke's name in Saturday nights Free
Press and restored the book to him at
the city hall Sunday morning.
The finding of the pocketbook disposes
of the robbery story told by Rourke,
who claimed that he was doped and rob-
bed. The police had not at any time
given credence to this story.

FINE SITE FOR PARK
State Should Own Land Sur
rounding Minneopa Falls.
Is a Delightful Spot, Picturesque
and Bes utiful Indeed.
An Ideal Spot for Extensive
Recreation Grounds.
Spreading Trees, Deep Ravines
and Pretty RivuIets.
From Tuesdays Daily.

BY a steep and winding climb among
the picturesque hills of South Bend
township, the Omaha train, soon after
leaving Mankato for Lake Crystal, APP
proaches Minneopa station. Before reach
ing this stopping place, the cars are
drawn across a great fill, which trav-
erses deep ravine, at the bottom of
which, Minneopa creek flows merrily
through stone culvert. That culvert
cannot be seen from the train, yet the
passenger knows it is there if he is OBJ
servant, and sees the stream on both sides
of the fill. The deep, deep ravine he
sees winding and turning both upstream
and down stream, and though the
glimpse that he catches is but momen-
tary as the train plods up the grade, he
can imagine what work of natures art
that tortuous channel must be.
If this train happens to be one that
stops at Minneopa station, the interest
ed passenger may alight and enter the
depot. 1t is getting pretty cold nova
days, and the fire that Station Agent j.
b. Hodge keeps here is decidedly agree
able Mr. Hodge makes his family home
in this little building, reserving one
apartment for the office. If he does not
happen to be busy, he is more than
pleased to tell the visitor all about the
falls, the unceasing murmer of which
can be plainly heard, for they are only
a few rods off. Mr.. Hodge has a col
lection of photographs of the water
fall taken at various seasons of the
year. 1t can hardly be said which scene
is the more beautiful, that of last sum-
mer when the vast volume of water
or that of the winter, when one huge
mass of ice reached from top to bottom
and twenty-five feet from side to side.
Mr. Hodge is as proud of this water
fall as if he owned the real estate. He
may readily be pardoned, and indeed add
mired, for this pride, for it was really
through his efforts that this natural
summer resort became as widely known
as it is. 1t was he who induced the
Omaha railway to make special rates
to and from Minneopa in the summer
and to advertise the attractive features
of the place. Country people of the
neighborhood have been accustomed to
drive on summer days to the region of

ANDREWS MAKES A DENIAL.
Says Did Not Give MeCIeary Author
ity to Use 3. Of T. Letterhead.
From Mondays Daily.

DR.. j. w. Andrews made the state
ment to The Free Press today that he
did not give Leslie McCleary authori-
ty to use the letter head of the Board
of Trade upon which to promulgate a
political document. DIR. Andrews stated
further that Leslie McCleary did not re-
quest the authority.
The following is the paragraph in
which the accusation is made that cat
alogue houses interested themselves in
the fight against Representative Nc
Cleary's denomination:
Congressman McCleary is against the
parcels post bills and we have reason
to believe that the big mail order and
catalogue houses of Chicago, Philadel-
phia, and New York contributed to the
fund which was raised to defeat Nc
Clearly for denomination"
Neither President Andrews nor Sec
rotary Taylor, nor j. B. Richards nor
j. B. Ogle had any reason to suspect
anything of the sort. The fact is the
gentlemen were tricked into signing the
circular, and two of them have ack-
nowledged as much.

WILL BOOM SEEDLESS APPLE
Company ls Organized for That
Purpose.

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 2S.-A seedless
apple company of Baltimore, incorporat-
ed to propagate and sell the seedless APP
pie in the states of Maryland, Virginia
and West Virginia, held meeting last
week.
The seedless apple was discovered by
j. F. Spencer of Grand Junction, Col,
some years ago. Applying the general
principles to the apple that were follow
ed in the case of the seedless orange, Mr..
Spencer succeeded in getting five apple
| trees that bore fruit practically with
out seeds.
| From these he began budding and
grating to induce them to reproduce
themselves. For twelve years he labor
ed patiently, telling no man of his
dreams or achievements. Not until he
was certain that his efforts were reward
ed by success did he announce his idea.
Now an orchard of fifty-fve trees
yields annually large, red, fine favored
apples having no seeds in them. Some of
these seedless trees that interlock with
ordinary trees contain seeds, but they
are placed hit or miss in the fruit, sell
dom near the core, but sometimes within
an eighth of an inch of the surface. 1t
is only where the pollen of the ordinary
tree has influenced the seedless crop that
seeds are found.
No blossom is visible at any time on
the seedless apple tree. There is a small
quantity of pollen, probably not over
one-twentieth of the amount that there
is on the common apple tree blossom.
A green bud appears on the seedless tree
which much resembles the bud on the
common apple tree after the flower is
removed; but on the seedless tree there
appears only the bud.
A cavity is observed at one end, SIM
liar to that on the navel orange of ff-
teen years ago. The end of the apple is
almost an exact reproduction of the
naval orange as it was at it's earliest
stage. Now the orange has almost en-
tirely filled the former cavity at the ma
vel end.
These seedless apples grow as large as
the ordinary winter apple and contain as
much juice. They are one of the latest
varieties to mature in Colorado; in fact,
they are not thoroughly ripened before
the 18th of October. But the lateness of
the season affects this extraordinary APP
pie not at all late frosts leave the seedless
trees still bearing when its neighbors
with seeds are barren and forlorn.
The meat is very firm and hard and
the apples are one of the longest keep
ers that grow in Grand Valley. In color
the apples are red when fully matured.

lish the station. The place was for a
time shipping point for grain and other
farm produce. But it was the story of
South Bend over again, only on small
er scale. Yet, Minneopa, though it has
failed to realize the dream of those
who sought to boom the place, has some
thing that cannot be transplanted, as
commercial prestige can. Minneopa has
gifts of natural beauty, which, though
they may be destroyed, can, never be APP
propriated and carried off. Some day
it may become state park, owned by
the people, and officially cared for, just
as have some of Minnesota's other
spots of natural loneliness.
