HURT IN A RUNAWAY.
From Fridays Daily.

rioiu tiludy hduy.
There came near being serious run
away in this village last Friday after
noon. George Tenney who resides in
Danville township came to this town
with pair of horses. 1t seems that
while passing Gus Schroeder's wagon
shop that Mr.. Schroeder got into the
buggy for the purpose of riding down
town. When opposite R. Bauerfeind's
shoeshop a dog ran out and commenced
barking and startled the team to such
an extent that they dashed up Main
street at a terrific pace. Messrs. Ten
ney and Schroeder were both thrown
from the wagon, the wheels passing over
both of Mr.. Tenney's arms, but he was
not much injured. Mr.. Schroeder when
picked up was in a critical condition
as several of his ribs were broken and
he was also hurt internally The next
day after the accident it was feared
that he would not survive but at this
writing he is slowly improving. The
team was caught in Florin Breck's yard
and was not injured in the least.-Min-

PYTHIAN FESTIVAL.
Mankato Knights Preparing 10 Go to
Minneapo May Fl.

From Fridays Daily.
A number of the Knights of Pythias
of this city are planning on attending
the Pythian festival to be held in Min
neapolis Saturday, May 2lst. The Py-
THAN Advocate has this to say in re-
gard to the affair:
Away and beyond anything that has
ever heretofore been undertaken by the
order in this section, the northwestern
Pythian festival to be held at the In
ternational Auditorium in Minneapolis
Saturday, May 2lst, will be the great
est, grandest, and most far-reaching in
its beneficial effects. This event must be
classed among the largest and most i'm
portant demonstrations that have ever
occurred under the auspices of the
Knights of Pythias, since its inception.
This is an age of big events, an age
when gigantic enterprises of this charac-
ter may be undertaken and successfully
contaminated. Every Pythian lodge and
every Pythian knight in this great
northwest is interested in the success
of this festival, and even though the
event is nearly two months distant. al
ready has been received communications
almost without number, from lodges and
individuals, asking for detailed informa-
ton and assuring the committee in
charge that large delegations will be
present.
This is to be a festival of ritual in
struction. The announcement that the
recognized leading "team" in the SUI
preme domain, lola team, of Dayton,
Ohio, will exemplify the ranks of page
and knight, is sufficient to arouse the in
terest of the army of Pythians in this
section. Add to this the fact that the
highest officers of the order in the SUI
preme domain, grand lodge officers of
many grand domains, governors and
other prominent state officers, men
whose names are household words, and
above all, the thousands of members OF
the order who will attend from neighbor-
ing domains, and many from distant do.
mains, fair idea of the immensely and
Importance of this understanding may
be had.

Chester HoIcombe Student Of Affairs

Anent the many interesting situa-

people have been listening with much
interest to the utterances of Chester
Holcombe, the orator, diplomat and
author, who is an authority en- the
Japanese-Russian controversy and as
sociated questions. Mr.. Holcombe mas
spent many years in the far east in
the diplomatic service Of this country
and is probably as well qualified to
answer the questions, to unravel them
and male them plain as any other liv-

combe went to China and was soon
appointed secretary and interpreter to
the American legation in Pekin by
President Grant He has filed all of
the important posts Of the United
States diplomatic service in China.
AS a member of the commission for
that purpose he negotiated the treaty
between the United States and Corea.
In 1884 he was appointed to represent
our government at the capital Of the
United States Of Colombia, but de-
clined the appointment. He was twice
offered a decoration of high order by
the emperor of China, but declined.

her face the cosmetic that enhanced
her beauty, and this Is what the
