ST. PETER is ELATED.
Finds Reason for Joy in Hope Of Get :
tine Another Railroad.

st. Peter, June l2.-Following close
upon the heels of the rumor that the
promoters of the Alphabet" road have
decio ed to pass by Mankato, comes the
story that it is to enter this city. 1t has
been known for months that the men
who are financing the road have been
considering st. Peter in their plans, but
it is said that they only recently elect,
ed to bridge the Minnesota river at this
point.
The belief is expressed that an import
ant factor in the change of the original
plan to build to MankatO was the devel-
opment this spring of the marble lodges
in the stone quarries at Kasota. This
promises to become an industry of large
proportions and the alphabet" people
are credited with having designs on their
share of the new business. They would
not build into the village of Kasota, but
would pass about a mile to the west
ward, reaching the quarries by means of
a spur track.
Should the new road be built into st.
Peter it would greatly simplify local
transportation facilities. At the pres
ent time the town is entirely dependent
upon the two lines of the Northwestern
system, and the alphabet" would give
an eastern outlet that would be of great
convenience to shippers and which would
doubtless secure them some freight-rate
concessions.
Weight is given to the building rumor
in the path of the alphabet" on its way
to Duluth, and also for the reason that
the town is easy of access. Between st.
Clair and this place there are no engi-
neering difficulties and the construction
cost would be nominal After leaving
here the road could turn to the north
ward and pass through Arlington be-
fore entering Glencoe. Bridging the Min
nesota river would require a consider
able expenditure, but there is no point
along the river where it could be done
more economically. The expense would
be far greater were the attempt to be
made at Mankato.
Local business men are elated over
the prospect of a third road, and they
will all welcome it.

FIGHTING THE EXTRACTION.
Whipple and Johnson Don't Want to
Go Back to La Crosse.


Habeas corpus proceedings in the
cases of f. J. Whipple and George John
son were started yesterday at WinOna
before Judge Snow. A requisition from
Governor Davidson of Wisconsin for the
return of the two was granted by Gov
ernOr johnson Friday, and they are fight
ing the extradition on the ground that
their offense was trivial and not extra
|ditable.
Whipple is accused of practicing medi-
cine and osteopathy in Wisconsin in
October, 1905. 1t is stated that he was
convicted on this charge in the county
court at La Crosse and appealed to the
circuit court. He was released on 800
bond, but while waiting for the hearing
on the appeal, it is said he went to
Minnesota.
On his departure a warrant was sworn
out for johnson and he too left the
state. He asserts that they could have
served the warrant before he left if they
had wished. The two men were arrested
by Sheriff John Haugen of La Crosse
at Wabasha this week.--St. Paul Pio-
neer Press.
The case was decided against Whipple
and johnson and both men were taken
to La Crosse.

 S. p. CHICAGO EXCURSION-The local passenger officials of the South ern Pacific have made a great success of an excursion scheduled to leave Phoenix for Chicago on July 2nd. It was the original plan to run one through ear, but requests were so nu- merous that a second car had to be added to accommodate the number seeking reservations.

The hotel has become known to Arizonians through an ad- vertisement carried in The Republican for some time past and many Arizon- ians, just as King Edward would prob ably do, if he visited the coast city have gone there to make it their home for the summer months.

IS HE RELATED TO JEFFERSON
 BRICK.

The other evening the New York Post alluded to Abraham Bricks eulOgies as sonorous but evanescent. A Rhode Island contemporary inquires Who is Abraham Brick?' Ignorance like that should be enlightened at once The Hon. Abraham Lincoln Brick is the pride of South Bend and the joy of the press gallery. Three univer- sities took turns in fashioning him. once he was the public prosecutor Of two pOpUlous counties; elderly evil doers dwelling on the banks of the St Joseph still tremble at his name. He has represented the Thirteenth district of Indiana in four congresses. At the last election he triumphed nightly over Herring the democrat and Heath the socialist. and HOller the prohibit tiOnist. He is only less eloquent than John Wesley Gaines. and he exudes poetry as (according to ex-Corp. Null vaney) the time-retired Tommy ab- sorbs liquor-"through his shkin.''- Hartford Courant

ADJUSTMENTS


The most pleasing bill of the season is the unanimous verdict of those who have attended the performances at Eastlake park the past few nights. 'The Embassy Ball" is a play which contains comedy and pathos artistically blended. All the actors have chance to display their ability, and the con trast in the various characters could not be greater. Many theater parties are being given and the patronage is increasing nightly. Tonight "The Elm bassy BalI' will be given for the last time. Excursion train over the South ern Pacific. Dancing follows the per formance.
 The Fourth of July will be cele- brated in a proper manner and there will be no need for Phoenicians to leave home. Amusements and refreshments in great variety; dancing, fireworks and excursion trains, and late street cars on all lines will combine to make the day one of pleasure. As the posters say, There will be something doing all day.

MIR. HUGHEs's DEGREE.

Charles E. Hughes has had an IL D. appended to his incisive name by Brown university. He will discover that it is easier to get a degree in a university than a nomination in a re- publican state convention, where ma chine delegates are thinking of graft instead of good government. If the republican masses had their way ac- tually as well as theoretically, MT. Hughes undoubtedly would head the ticket of his party this fall. But the politicians prefer the Odells and Hig- ginses, Aldridges and Quiggs of the machine to reformers who reform things. So the gOvernOrship is not for Charles E. Hughes.-Troy Press.

THE CULTIVATION
 OF SISTO SMITH
The Government Got Him Into Trouble, and Had to Get Him Out.

The American Indian is now thor oushly and completely civilized. This fact was officially established yester- day in Tucson. according to a tele- phone message when SiSto Smith a full -blooded Papago Indian was granted a divorce from Josefa Smith another full-blooded Papago. for the divorce court is unquestionably the highest achievement of American civ iIization. In any event, mankind has run through all the generations of so- ciety from barbarian up before reach ing the final clearing house for family trouble. No one can dispute the fact that Sisto was as much entitled to re- lief as anybody for his matrimonial experience was even more embarrass- ing than that of the average American who appeals to the divorce court
 Slsto was a likely chap and had re- ceived the rudiments of a good English education at the Indian schools in Pima county. Having arrived at the age of maturity, In keeping with the teachings of all people of all ages. he thought 1t encumbent upon him to es- tablish family altar. This was in 1899 and about that time the govern ment decided to extend the Indians the hlessing of a civilized marriage after lnere- fore secured the legal authority and led the blushing Josefa to the altar where the parish priest pronounced inc benediction of the church.
 The increase of the Smiths has been notable all over the world. in whatever cline they dwelt or whatever language they spoke. It was no less so with the Papagn Smiths In the course of a year there was an accretion to the family circle and a little black-hafred pappoose began to thrill the name of Smith.
 About this time the government thought that Sisto Smith was ripe for higher education, and induced him to go 10 santa Fe for the further deveI- opment of his mental faculties. He was absent for a couple of years and came home joyously to the bosom of his family, only to find that there had been a further accession and instead of one, there were two Papago kids learn Ing to lisp the name of Smith Sisto decided that this must be stopped for hH might in the future. often be called away from home and if he proved to be very useful and busy man there was no telling to what alarming pro- portions his family might grow.
 After thoughtful considerat ton he ap Q piled to the schoo! authorities for re lief, but they could offer none. Had ne been married in the old Indian fash lon' he could have taken a club and beaten the wife of his bosom into an appearance of respectable behavior. But he had been Iured into matrimonv on the white mans system with the aid and cousent of the white mans govern ment and he put it up to that same government to submit a plan of relief. The Indian bureau wrestled with the problem awhile but finally gave it up. The officials contended that about so many Smiths had to be born every year anyway. and if Sisto had assumed that name and the responsibilities of citizenship, he must be brave enough to bear the consequences. They sug- gested though, that other Smiths had found relief ill the divorce courts and
