FRENCH PRISON FOR BOYS,
where U~nmanageabIe Sons OF the Rich
Are Confined.
From The Fortnightlv Rerie,c,

The Maison Paternel!e at Mettray near
Tours. France, whore the sons OF rich people
between the ages Of IL and 81 are incaroerated
because they are unmanageable at homo.
Is q curious institution.
We were greeted at the entrance with a
frontage of iron bars. No bell was rung;
our guide noiselessly inserted a gigantic
key and we entered a large hall, A long
row OF locked doors greeted us on each side,
and a gallery running round the top Of the
hall repeated the same thing These are
their rooms. said our guide In an awful whls-
per. i"They are shut up In there now-they
must not hear u.s.
This gruesome hall oppressed one with O
sense OF doom and despair quite indescribable.
No windows. no air from the skyllght over
head.
They are permitted to 90 out only In
charge Of q keeper for one hour In the day:
but l will show you how things have been
arranged for them" he added. There is, /
believe. one room vacant at the moment"
A small bare cell. Just big enough to CON-
tain the narrow bed, email writing table. two
chairs and a minute chest Of drawers and
washstand. Iron bars enclosed the window:
q paddock and chain enabled the door to be
opened about four inches when required.
You see.' our guide showed us. "by this
means they hear the messe In the chapel
without quitting their rooms"
In these cells. he told us, the boys lived day
and night. for two, three. sometimes for six
or seven years. Professors come from
Tours and give them instruction at the small
writing table. Once a month they take a
bath, more often II the relatives are willing
to pay extra for 1t. They are escorted to the
bath by a guardian. The isolation OF each
boy Ia 80 thorough that two brothers were
once there together for two years without ever
knowing II. The price for the privilege Of plao-
ing your son under this parental roof Ia Ella
a month, all instruction being extra.
The boys are known only by the number
on their cell door, 80 that their s~ojourn at the
Parental House may not tell against them
In after life. Their friends suppose them
to be en- voyage. or In an English or German
family, learning the language. One invents
a little romance. you see." said our guide.

YES1 ERDAY'S STOCK MARKhT
Excited Speculation in the Hartman
 pacifcS.

New York, Aug. 15-To-day's stock market was made up in overwhelming proportion of the excited speculation in the Hartman Pacifics. The backbone of this movement was the concentrated
 rying of the two stocks by commission houses fully credited with conducted operation in the stock market for cap- italists closely associated in the contro
 of these railroad properties. Eagerly following the movement was cloud of spectators of all degrees of promi- hence down to the small room trader
 The constant trading in and out of this class helped materially to initiate the volume of the transactions. But the character of the main buying was ac- cepted as evidence of the conclusion of important plans regarding the proper ties, It was assumed very confidently that an increase in the dividend on Union Pacific had been determined and that dividend payments were to be int- tiated on Southern Pacific, the yearly rate for the latter being most cOmmon- ly assumed at per cent, put with con- lecture running to a higher rate. There was a current supposition that the re lation of St. Paul to these properties was also involved in the coming devel- opment and that some form of control ot that property, either by issue of bonds in exchange for the stock or oth- erwise, was in contemplation. These various surmises were lacking in au- thentic confirmation. Formal action is expected to be taken at the meetings of the executive committee of the Union Pacific and of the directors of the St. Paul, which are fixed for tomorrow. Attention became more and more con- centrated on the movement in the two Hartman stocks and in the final hour of the trading they moved up to their

n. A. Patterson Succeeds Dr.. jaime s
as President of Citizens Tel. Co.

At meeting of the directors of the
Mankato Citizens Telephone company
held last evening, the resignation of DIR
J. II. James as president was received
and accepted, and Vice President H. A
Patterson was elected president. Nit
Petersen, one of the directors, was chos
en- vice president, but will retain his
place on the board of directors.
DIR. James has been president of the
company almost from the time that il
was organized. Judge Cray served the
first year as president, and then DR.
James was chosen and has served con-
tinuously ever since. He has hade a
most excellent official, giving the du-
ties of the office large amount OF
attention, and the company's plant and
business has grown and thrived greatly
under his administration. Mr.. Patterson
is young and progressive business
man, and if change had to be made
the directors made no mistake in put
ting him in as president.

Freight CARS SMAS HE'D.
Omaha Road Has Annoying WrecI
Near Minneopa.

A bad freight wreck occurred mile
and a half west of Minneopa on the
Omaha road last night. When the fast
freight No. "a, east bound, reached the
point at lO:l5 p. NJ, seven cars in the
middle of the train jumped the track,
from some unknown cause. The cars
were smashed up and made an obstruc-
ton on the track that blocked traffic
for six hours. A wrecking train from
st. James was secured and worked all
night, and at 4:30 4. M. got the track
clear.
Fortunately no one was hurt in the
wreck. Passenger train No. l, south
bound, was held in this city from 10: Ii
p. m. until 4:30 a. IN.
The only car that dumped its con-
tents to the ground was a car of corn.

SMOOTH AS ICE.
Mapleton Road Rendered Remark
ably Good by Road Drag.

j. n. Waddell, a prominent farmer
of Beauford, was in the city yesterday
afternoon. He was surprised and de-
lighted at the condition that he found
the Mapleton road in. During the past
two or three years he had been accus-
toned to find it full of ruts and very
hard to travel on, but yesterday ne
found it about as smooth as Front
street, to use his own words. This i'm
proved condition of the road was due to
the use of King road drag, which has
lust been presented to the path master.
Mr.. Waddell has travelled the Maple
ton road for thirty-five years, and said
that he had never seen it in better con-
dition. He had expected to find it al
most impossible. as that was its condi-
ton on his last trip. He is enthus.
iastic over the work which the King
drag does in the way of keeping the
roads in good condition when used after
rains. He said that the drag is just the
thing for the roads in this section, and
he did not see how the Mapleton road
could possibly be made better than it
has been made by the use of the drag.

Harped on High Tariff;
But Did Nothing of Note

except tariff boosting, and his speech on
that has not yet appeared in The Rec
ord at this writing.
No accounting has ever been rendered
by Mr.. McCleary relative to his long
trip on the continent of Europe, when
accompanied by his son, he visited the
ancient capitals of the old world, search
ing for a model from which to copy a
statue to the memory of Lincoln.
Every other member from Minneso.
ia, except the second district represent
tative, is on record with speeches sup
porting the legislation that has passed
and which was demanded by President
Roosevelt. But the one thing which
Roosevelt has let alone this session, the
tariff, until he could get other important
matters clearly up, Mr.. McCleary harps
on, and seems strangely welded to the
idea that he will be able to convince
his constituents that the country is
afiame for the Dingley law.

LIABLE FOR DAMAGES.
Township Must See That Roads Are
Put Into Good Conditions.

Many people perhaps do not know it,
but townships are liable under the law
for poor road work which causes dam
age to a vehicle traversing the roads
in the township. OF course there are
times when roads being rebuilt must be
in bad condition for a short time, and
the law naturally makes allowance for
necessary bad conditions. However, the
term necessary does not cover cases
where road work is not begun with def
mite system looking toward it's early
completion, nor will it cover cases where
the road work is of character which
common sense will not Justify. The pill
ing of sod in the middle of a road and
there leaving it indefinitely is danger
GUS to almost any vehicle and unneces-
sary. While there have not been many
damage suits in the state because of
such roads, the first township to pay
for a broken automobile or two would
certainly have a decided stimulus to-
ward adopting more up-to-date road
methods. The split-log drag, by the way,
never leaves the road in dangerous con-
dition.

The Washington correspondent OF The
st. Paul Dispatch has something to say
relative to the poor record of Repre-
sentative McCleary during the recent
session of congress. Other members OF
the Minnesota delegation have some
thing to show to their credit. The Dis
patch says:
Chairman James \. Tawney of the
house appropriation committee sealed
several large slices off the District OF
Columbia appropriation bill, which Con
gresham McCleary used to frame up
with choice assortment of soft things
for his Washington friends.
After speaking of McCleary, his rec
ord this session is we'll described by a
recent epioram of Frank NJ. Eddy's. 1t

ed. He has not raised his voice for rail

important questions, we call mass
state convention of bachelors and bache
lor ladies, July 25, 1906, to nominate
a full state, legislative, congressional
and judicial ticket to be voted on at the
November election"
In a reply to President Roosevelt's
preachments against race suicide, which
will be read at the convention, Mr.. Mer-
rick, says:
"Now, after the monopolies have all
the industries, large and small, and the
people are all slaves, to keep control OF
the slaves it will be necessary that they
should be weakened by an increase in
number.
"Any person with a thimbleful of
brains, looking over the globe can
readily see there is not good living for
a fourth of the people. Then for the
president to talk against race suicide
one would think he had just woke from
a Rip Van Wrinkle Sleep"
