Decision May Call For New Trial.

Last Monday afternoon Atty. VIM.
Owens went to New Ulm where he
argued motion before Judge Webber
for new trial in the case of an Peder-
son against Freeman and Clark. The
judge granted the motion and entered
an order setting aside the verdict which
the jury gave Peterson at Marshall
last June on the ground that the ver-
dict was excessive and contrary to the
evidence. What Mr.. Peterson or his
attorney M. b. Mathews will do with
their claim is speculative at this time
but undoubtedly they will bring the
case up for a new trial at the next
term ofcourt.-W alnut Grove Tribune.

ent "Hoity-Toity" company, while not
organized to play at So houses, gives
a performance SO nearly approaching
the original production that the ver-
dict of all who saw :Hoity-To oity" last
night was that it is one of the greatest
popular priced shows ever seen in
Louisville.
The first act shows the campus of
Yale College, at New Haven. The set
ting is an effective one. The chorus is
shown first as members of rowing
club, and make a pretty ensemble.
The second act is at Monte Carlo, and
here the greater part of the fun takes
place. Irving Brooks and LAPEL Dix
on, who takes the roles assumed last
year by Messrs. Weber and Field, are
capable successors of this famous pair,
and, together with Frederick Schnit-
eel, they manage to keep the audience
in a roar.
"Hoity- -Toity" is no more Or less
than a big revel of light, color and
music, -a. -7..-

Thinks There's no Place Like Home.

F. H. Behnke returned home last
Tuesday evening from his trip to the
Pacific coast. He had been gone sew
eral weeks and covered a vast amount
of territory during that time, but he
returns with the words, "That there is
no place like home" Mr.. Behnke
states, that taking into comparison
the business conducted in Minnesota
and that of some of the western states,
he would prefer the former, also in
many respects the North Star State,
in it's beauty, is equal if not excelling
the states bordering the wide Pacific.
Mrs. Behnke remained at Salt Lake
City, Utah.

CASHIER MAY COST COUNTY MONEY
Sheriff Williams Presents Bill to
County Commissioners.

Unless the state defrays part of the
expenses connected with the returning
of Alfred A. Buck, the defaulting
cashier of Mankato, who recently Sc
cured bonds for his release, it will
cost Blue Earth County the neat sum
of S6O1.65. -.--
This is the amount of the bill as
presented by Sheriff Williams to the
county commissioners and which will
be considered at the present session.
Auditor Weaver of that county is un-
der the impression that the county is
only liable to the expenses incurred in
the county Of Blue Earth and that the
burden of the expense while outside of
the boundaries of Minnesota will fall
upon the state. 1t is expected that the
law in the matter will be looked up be-
fore the bill is allowed.
Further referring to the matter the
Review of Mankato says.
Cash paid for railroad fares forms
the principal items. Sheriff Williams
paid S52 and an additional sleeping
car fare of Sl3, for transportation
from Washington to Havana. The
fares of both the sheriff and his pri-
soner on the return from Havana to
St. Paul, including sleeping car ac-
commodations. amounted to S147. The
authorities in the south received 1925
for apprehending Buck on the Isle Of
Pines and taking him to Havana, and
1923 for his keeping after he arrived in
that CITY, A single item, ''expense for
self and Buck for twenty one days. is

at nineteen days, S76.

LARGE AUDIENCE is ASSURED
La Toilette Announcement Proves
to Be Popular.
Inquiries For Seats Come From
Many Outside Towns.
"Hoity Toity" Will Also Have
Large Audience.

If Bryan was popular and was able
to draw large audience last season
when he was here, it is evident that
Bob La Toilette will be equally so, for
the inquiry as to date and seats has
started and there remains nearly one
month until the time for the lecture. 1t
is certain that there will be a large
crowd present on the Goth of September
to hear this man, who, next to the
president of the United States, is one
of the most talked ofmen ninthecountry.
Those who have kept in touch with
the daily papers for the epastfewmonths
have read of the achievements OF this
man, who is to be reckoned with in the
affairs of the nation and whose per-
sonality is bound to fix itself in the
legislation that is influence the history
of the country,
Recently he delievered an address at
the Chautauqua grounds at Albert Lea
and one of the papers in commenting
on the address uses the following:
SIT is impossible to describe the tre-
mendous energy and earnestness OF
Governor La Follette's great address.
He held the audience at high pitch OF
attention for hearly three hours and
yet they wanted more. Bryan was
never more radical in speech Or with
pen, and even the striking pictures and
prophecies of Ignatius Donnelly were
discounted. It was bold revival and
exposition of populism, and every
thought expressed was the irresistible
and inexorable truth. Governor La
Toilette arrived about o'clock in the
afternoon, hastened to the Chautanqua
grounds, made the speech, hurriedly
left the platform, bought his ticket and
took the Milwaukee east for his home
in Madison, Wisconsin,.
HOITY TOITY.
But with the interest that is being
taken in the lecture of Gov. La Toilette,
there is also much interest in the pre-
sentation Of one of the most interest
ing and laughable comic operas that
has ever been presented in this city.
There are more than fifty people in
the cast and they are all actors of the
tirst-class. This play has been select
ed as the opening play of the season
and is to be given on Sunday evening,
the 18th of September. The Louisville
Post, in speaking of the shows says:
A record breaking audience saw the
initial performance of weeks en-
gagement of "Hoity-Toity' at the Ma
sonic Theatre last night. 1t was dis
tinctively crowd that came to laugh
that had heard of the Weber & Fields
creation as a melange of mirth and
music, and came prepared to enjoy the
funny dialogues, the sparkling music
and the brilliant dances and ensembles
by the handsomely appareled chorus.
Weber & Fields, together with their
company Of stars, were seen here at
the Auditorium Theatre last season,

Display of Exhibits.

1t is in the air, that there. is to be
one of the largest crowds at the county

about the same number as came in
same days last week. The market
is probably 10 to 20 cents lower than
a week ago on stuff coming from the

this fall is sure to be the best ever

Of Gamers in the world are now

disappointment in the last ten days,

farmers have not yet had time to
complete arrangements for handling
cattle since the corn crop became a
surety, and that prices a little later
will be better as the demand in
creases. The packers are taking

Improved elastic roof paint is a

crack. check or scale. and will stay
where you put it and wear for
years. II is better for shingles or

it is a wood preservative. and for

equal. This paint has received the
highest endorsement from many
well-known citizens Of Rocky Ford

In one corner of the room was a

LARGE FOREIGN DELEGATION

WASHINGTON, May 4.--The seventh
session of the International Railway
congress was formally opened here to-
day by Vice President Charles w.
Fairbanks. The opening ceremony took
place in the ball room Of the new
Willard hotel and was attended by
nearly 800 delegates and as many CT
their friends. Three hundred of the
delegates are foreigners, and every
railroad of Importance in the world Is
represented.
Wee President Fairbanks words of
welcome and congratulations were fol-
lowed by addresses by Stuyvesant
Fish, president Of the American Sec
ton of the congress. and by Ernest
Girard, temporary chairman of the
permanent commission of the congress.
The five sections through which the
congress is to accomplish it's work of
discussion were organized at once, and
each will meet at o'clock tomorrow to
take up the duties assigned to it. Dur
ing the afternoon the delegates visited
Mount Vernon and the tomb of Wash
ington by steamer, and in the evening
a private view Of the collection of the
Corcoran Gallery of Art was given.
The discussions of the sections are
conducted behind closed doors, in
order that there may be no restraint
in expressions of opinions by delegates.
The topics to be handled are entirely
scientific and technical. The conclu-
sion reached by a section after. due dis
cussion of q topic is distracted and
presented to the general congress at
meetings to be held during the ten
days term of the session. These con-
clusions are printed and constitute the
work OF the congress.
No legislation of, any nature is en-
acted by the congress and no resolu-
tions binding railway managements to
any line of policy are considered.
