| ways than one. The Review says
that the trial has already cost the
! county nearly $4,000, necessitat-
ing an overdraft of $4,000 on the
county revenue fund. The same

trial at Mankato, added to the
above deficit, will leave the county

An epitome of Evangelist Sun
days work is given in the Mason
City Times-H Herald as follows: Num-
Der of conversions 100, aggregate
attendance nearly 100000, raised
for current expenses nearly 81, 500,
for charities $500, and voluntary
Offering for the trio of evangelists
1000. The subscription for char
tiles was to take the place of
charity ball, which was called off
after Mr.. Sunday gave his whirl-
wind lecture against dancing and
card-playing.
Lake Crystal Union: Rev. Mr..
Teachout wrote to Frank B. Cow
gill, pastor of the Methodist Epis-
copal church at Redwood Falls, in
regard to the amount of money paid
Evangelist Sunday by the people of
that place, and he replied that the
sum of 81, 700 was contributed as a
free will Offering, and that he did
not ''return any considerable sum
as it had been reported that he had
given to each of the five churehes
about 5000. The people of Redwood
are perfectly satisfied with Mr..
Sunday and greatly appreciate his

The tie up of freight trains on
the lines running into this city
came near bringing on coal famine
during the past week. Most of the
dealers had orders in and past due.
There was little soft coal to be
had last Thursday, and anthracite
only in, limited quantities. Con-
sumers and dealers have both
learned the lesson that it is best to
stock up early in the fall for a Sc
we're winter and take no chances.
1t is not unlikely that some of the
coal enroute for this point has been
confscated for the benefit of com
munities upprepared for the situa-
ton.
Conductor Tom Hughes, who will
always be kindly remembered here
as former resident, figured in a
rather exciting episode during the
blizzard of Feb 9th. While run
ming east from Sleepy Eye in the
storm, the coupling connecting the
engine with his train broke about
mile east of Essig, and while the
air on the coaches set the brakes,
the engine shot ahead alone. Not
knowing whether the cars were
following the engineer did not dare
to slacken speed for some distance
and then he found that the drifts
had become so deep over the track
he had covered as to make backing
up impossible. He proceeded to
New Ulm and secured the help of
switch engine to help in rescuing
the stranded train. The Review
