E. J. Smiley, secretary of
the Kansas grain trust who
was convicted of violating
the antitrust law, has appli.
ed to Gov. Hoch for a pardon.
Smiley went clear to the U.

law knocked out but failed.
He now hopes to get away
from the penalty. If the
governor should pardon him
it would be an insult to every
Kansas farmer.

neral Saturday.
From Mondays Daily.
| No filter demonstration of the ex-
ceeding popularity of the late Miss
Amanda Jorgensen could be wished than
the numerous, exquisite floral trib-
utes that were sent to her funeral
last Saturday. Perhaps the most touch
ing of all was the broken wheel in
flowers from the surviving eight of the
nine young ladies, who were companions
so long. Each spoke of the wheel rep
resented one member of this group who
have had so many happy times together,
and the missing spoke indicated the one
that had been removed by death. The
surviving eight are Misses Clara Bar
ker, Cora Ennes, Mary Janda, Ethel
Morse, Clara Powers, Nellie Widell, Myr-
tie Wood and Rose Walser. The senior
class of the high school sent white roses;
the junior class, Easter lilies; the Sun
shine club, carnations; the Mankato
Commercial college, roses and Easter
lilies; the Order of Eagles, harp of
white carnations, with Eagle eolors;
the Philharmonic society, roses; the
Order of Rebekas, carnations; the Young
Peoples Society of the Lutheran church,
an anchor of pink roses; the ladies of
the Norwegian synod, crescent and
star of roses and carnations; the Man
kato lodge of Elks, broken pillar of
pink roses and white carnations; the
city council, wreath of lilies and
hyacinths; the Sunday school society,
hyacintns and ferns; Superintendent
Mcconnell and the teachers of the high
school, roses and carnations; and Mr.
and Mrs. Jorgensen and family, a pill
low of roses and lilies of the valley;
besides profuse array of flowers from
individual friends and relatives.
The casket was borne by the follow
ing active ,pall-bearers: Henry Gerlach,
Fred Christensen, Ed Coughlan, Julius
Wolter, Jay Nicholson and Albert
Krost, accompanied by the honorary
pail bearers, all intimate friends of the
young lady SO suddenly and sadly tax

DEATH CAME SUDDENLY.
Mrs. Stephen Thorne Succumbs to
Heart Failure.

-
Heart Failure.
From Mondays Daily
Mrs. Frances Estella Thorne, wife of
Stephen Thorne, clerk of the district
court, died at the family home at Lake
Crystal at 2:30 o'clock this morning
For eight years past she has been a suf
ferer from articular rheumatism, which
rendered her practically helpless, al
though until the past year she was able
to be wheeled about in a chair. While
the disease had been gradually becom-
ing more aggravated, it was not the
cause of her heath She took severe
cold few days ago, and week ago
pneumonia set in. she was doing nice
ly and was more cheerful than usual
last evening, but at one o'clock this
morning heart failure set in, and the
end quickly followed. Mr.. Thorne was
with her during her last hours.
Mrs. Thorne was born at Saratoga,
n. Y, and was in her forty-eighth
year. She was united in marriage vita
Mr.. Thorne at Saratoga in 1872. They
moved to Lake Crystal twenty.eignt
place their home ever since, except for
seven years that they resided in Man
kato.
The deceased, besides ner husband, is
survived by her father, John Stevenson,
and her brother, John Stevenson Jr..
both of Lake Crystal She was men,
Der of the Presbyterian church and was
also member of Degree of Honor
lodge No. 5 of this city. She possessed
a particularly cheerful disposition, that
did not allow her almost helpless condi-
tion to depress her mind, as it would
have done most people. Although an
invalid herself, she added cheer and hope
to the lives of those more fortunate
than herself, and her influence upon
those about her was uplifting and in
spring. She was a favorite with all
who knew her, and her death causes
deep sorrow at Lake Crystal, where she
was known so long and SO WELL and
also in this city, where she made many
warm friends during her rather brief
residence. The many friends of the
family throughout the county will also
share the grief of those remaining.
The funeral will occur from the
Methodist church at Lake Crystal Mon
day forenoon at ten o'clock, and the in
terment will be had at Lake View Gene
terry, there. The members of Degree of
Honor lodge will no doubt attend in a
body.
