JOHNSON STOLE WATCHES.
His Arrest Occurred Near Good
Thunder Last Week.

FROM wednesday : daily.
The Sunday following the Fourth of
July Harold Johnson, who was working
for Clarence Mcdonald on his farm in
10 Davies disappeared, and with him
also disappeared two silver watches,
chains and other jewelry. Sheriff Freer
was notified and he printed description
of the man and the articles and sent
them to the officers of the law in this
section. On Monday of last week the
village marshal of Amboy called Freer
to the phone and told him he was sure
he had his man located on farm be
tween Amboy and Good Thunder. The
next morning the sheriff went there and
found MS man at work in the harvest
field. At first he denied his identity,
but George was sure of his man and
started for the house with him,
to allow hi INTO get his extra cloth
ing and the little pay that was due. Be
fore getting from the buggy he 'fessed
up" to the robbery. He was brought
before Justice Sprout on Tuesday and
given ninety day jail sentence at
"hard labor" He tells quite story
of how he happened to be without the
stolen property. He says himself and
another fellow planned to go to Dako-
ta for the harvest; that he went to
his Joe Davies home and on Sunday
when the family were all gone, he help
ed himself to the watches and jewelry.
The couple started out, and when at
Amboy, his partner stole from him ev-
erything he had stolen from Mcdonald.
Therefore he was obliged to forego his
Dakota trip and go to work.-Blue

MUSICIANS TO REORGANIZE
Philharmonic Society to Meet For
This Purpose Sunday.

There will be reorganization of the
Philharmonic society at a meeting to
be held next Sunday afternoon, Aug
Goth, at the Board of Trade rooms in
the city hall. Managers would be glad
to have all the old members of the So
ciety and anyone else who wishes to
join. The purpose of the meeting next
Sunday afternoon is to reorganize
elect officers, and make preparation for
the holding of weekly rehearsals. The
material and talent is in Mankato to
make one of the best musical organi-
cations in the state and there is no
better field than orchestra work to de-
yelop the art of music. The Phihar-
monic society last year numbered be-
tween twenty-five and thirty perform
ers and members, which included the
best musical talent in the city. The
society gave various concerts during
the year, which were well patronized
and enjoyed by the people of Mankato.
1t is intended to begin rehearsals
about the first of September. New
members will be taken into the society
until rehearsals begin, so it will be
well for all those intending to join to
try to be present at the meeting next
Sunday and should anyone be unable
to attend then, they will have an OPP
portunity to join by signing their
names to the list of members at eth
er Ed. Lamms or J. f. SedePs drug
store. But by all means try to be at
the meeting next Sunday afternoon at
2 o'clock in the Board of Trade rooms,
city hall.

INJUNCTION SUIT.
Effort to Prevent Building Encroach-
ina on Sidewalk.

F. X. Meagher, who owns the build
ing Just south of that which Thomas
A. Sherk is erecting for the Mankato
Savings and Building association, has
employed Pfau & Pfau and instructed
them to commence an injunction suit
against those responsible for the cree
ton of the building and have them re-
strained from trespassing upon the
sidewalk space. 1t is claimed that the
new building will set thirteen inches
upon the sidewalk. The papers will be
served at once, and may be served be-
fore night. The court will also be ask
ed to order the present front wall torn
down as far as it has progressed.
Mayor Taylor, who has all along re-
gretted to see the building put where it
is, has called an informal meeting of
the aldermen for this afternoon to look
at it, as the property owners desire
some official backing in their move.
A good deal of talk has been ere
ated by the action of the builders in
placing their building where it is, and
the officials have been criticized for al
lowing the work to proceed as far as it
has.
In the meantime work on the build
ing is at full progress.

DISLIKE DEMURRAGE.
Coal Dealers Meet to Discuss This
and Freight Rates.

From Wednesdays Daily.
A meeting of the coal dealers of this
section of the state was held in parlor
B of the Saulpaugh this afternoon, be-
ginning at two o'clock About twenty
five dealers, representing nearly every
town within a radius of forty miles OF
Mankato, and some coming from longer
distances, were present.
The object of the meeting is to talk
over demurrage and freight rates, as a
good deal of trouble is being had with
the railroads. No matter if the road
takes thirty days to deliver carload
of coal, it must be unloaded within
forty eight hours after it has been de
ivered, or else demurrage is charged.
Where dealer gets several cars at a
time it is sometimes hard to get all of
the cars unloaded within forty eight
hours
Among those who attended the meet
ing, besides the local dealers. were W.
f. Heidel and j. l.. Krogstad of Wi
mona, NJ. j. Scoville of Tracy, A. Blod-
gett Jr of Faribault, +. f. Moore, j
c. Byrnes and John A. Klarvisch OF
Wells, j. f. Hennessey of GAINESVILLE
c. Y. jackson of st. Peter, F. ID. Gould
of Fairmont, F. f. Lehr of Wmnebago
and j. c. Hensely of Blue Earth.

.SAULPAUCH TROPHY.
That Silver Cup Is Soon to
Be Contested For.
Final Competitive Shoot Will
Decide the Prize.
Handicaps Will Be Decided Af-
ter Today's Contest.
H. A. Patterson Has Best Per-
centage Thus Far.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
Fifteen of the seventeen preliminary
shoots held by the Mankato Gun club
in preparation for the final handicap
shoot that is to decide the Saulpaugh
silver cup, have taken place. This af
ternoon takes places the last of the
shoots on which will be figured the
handicaps. A committee to be appoint
ed to figure out the percentage of every
man and his handicap in the final shoot
for the cup is the next thing in order.
Full arrangements for this big event
will be rapidly pushed to perfection,
and without doubt vast crowd will
final contest.
The fact that certain man has made
the best record in the preliminary shoot
does not mean at all that he is sure
of winning the trophy, for, as his sue
cess has been, so will be the handicaps
placed for him to overcome. So it will
be about an even shake after ALL Ev
cry participant in the final shoot must
have taken part in at least twelve
of the seventeen preliminaries. Only
the first sixteen of these weekly pre-
liminaries are to count in determining
his handicap.
The man with the best record in the
preliminaries up to date is H. A. Pat
terson Mr.. Patterson has attended
eight of these shoots, and has broken
l56 clay pigeons out of possible 200,
thus making percentage of IS.

of 76, having attended nine shoots and
broken III pigeons out Of possible
225.

PAVING MATTER ADJUSTED.
Milwaukee and Great Western Roads
Will Pay For Improvement.

From Wednesday Daily.
There is hitch between the Milwau
kee and Chicago Great Western roads
in regard to paving the foot of Jackson
street. Under the terms of their agree
ment with the city they were to do this
whenever the city paved the balance of
the street. Some time ago the city sent
formal notice to the Milwaukee road
hung up ever since. There is misun-
derstanding between the two roads as to
how the cost shall be divided between
them The Milwaukee wants each road
to pay an equal share, but the Great
Western thinks that the Milwaukee
should pay more than half, owing to
what it claims to be some unequal ad-
yantages as to traffic arrangements.
The concrete foundation has been
completed to the alley where the rail-
roads are to pay for the work, and idle
ness pravails there, waiting for the
roads to adjust their matters. Yester-
day City Engineer Thompson telegraph
ed to the Milwaukee officials asking
that prompt action be taken if Fielding
& Shepley are to do the work.
Matters between the two roads have
evidently been adjusted, for Agent
Moore this afternoon received the fol-
lowing telegram:
La Crosse, Wis.,, Aug. l6.-Please
authorize Fielding & Shepley and City
Engineer Thompson to go ahead with
paving of Jackson street at once as per
specifications. w. Irwin, superinten

TROUBLE OVER ADOPTION.
Lester Ewing Prefers His Father to
His Grand Parents.

Lester Ewing Prefers His Father to
His Grand Parents.
From Wednesdays Daily.
A petition for the revocation of de-
cree of adoption has been filed in the
probate court and is likely to lead to
a spirited legal fight. The bone of con-
tention is a lad sixteen years old. =
Some years ago Mrs. Carrie B. Ewing
got divorce from her husband, William
H. Ewing, and was awarded the care
and custody of their only child, Les
ter. This was in Hennepin county, and
the decree was entered in 1893. Mrs.
Ewing returned to the home of her par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Pickle, near Eagle
Lake, bringing the child with her. Lat
er, Mr.. Ewing got an order OF the court
awarding the child to him, but before he
got it the grandparents adopted the boy,
which effectually headed the father off.
The boy at that time said that he pre-
ferred to live with his grandparents.
About July End last, Lester Ewing
left the home of his grandparents and
went to the farm of his father, who has
moved back to this county from Min
neapolis. The two farms are not very
far apart. The boy announced that he
did not want to stay with the Pickles
any longer and would run away if he
could not stay with his father, so it is
said
Now the boy joins with his father in
signing a petition to have the decree of
adoption set aside on statutory grounds,
and for the reason that no notice of
the adoption proceedings were served
on the father. The constitionality of
some of the adoption proceedings is also
questioned. Mr.. Ewing, it is said, in
tends to send his son through college
if the adoption proceedings are set
aside.
Young & Jones appear for Mr.. Ew.
ing, and Pfau & Pfau for the Pickles.
Mr. Ewing is a brother of former
county treasurer, j. A. Ewing, now re-
siding at Boise, Idaho. Mrs. Ewing has
married again.

TAILORS' CAMP.
Sleep Was Barred During the Three
Days Outing.

FROM wednesday Dally
The tailors had fine time at their
camp on Lake Ballentine, where they
spent Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
They slept in tent, and cooked their
own meals. They were camped upon
point running out into the lake, where
they had nice breeze. They caught
plenty of fish, and had fine outing.
One of the rules of the camp was that
no one was to sleep. If anybody was
caught sleeping he got his face painted.
The boys came back in good spirits
and feeling better for the outing. A
dozen in all participated in the camp
ing out.

STRIKE is NOT LIKELY.
Northwestern Telesraphers Do Not
Talk of Walking Out.
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
4 strike of the Chicago and North
western railway telegraphers threatens.
1t is possible that operators on the st.
Paul and Wisconsin Central roads will
also go out says the La Crosse Chronicle.
Formal demands are to be made on
the railroad managers early next week.
After reasonable time. if no answer Is
made which is satisfactory to the opera
tors, a strike will be declared.
The men are now working every day
in the month and they will demand one
day III seven off duty. They insist that
thev cannot stand the strain of work
ing thirty -one days a month and that
their demand for a little time off is not
unreasonable.
This would naturally effect operators
on the Minnesota and Dakota division
ikewise-Owatonna Journal.
The above article was shown today to
local man in position to know about
such matters and he said there is no
foundation for the story. 1t is true
that committees of the telegraphers' or
ganization have been negotiating with
the railroad companies, and among them
the Chicago and Northwestern, but
there is no likelihood of a strike.
