i The Minneapolis & st. Louis rail-
road has closed its stock yards to the
buyers of stock for shipment at
Hanska because of the failure Of the
buyers to keep the place clean. While
they may not use the place for holding
stock during the collection of a num-
Der for shipment the place will be
available for use twenty -four hours at
a time where shipment is desired. It
appears that the oder which came
from the place annoyed the people of
the village and they made complaint.
It is expected that cement floors will
be put in the yards and other improve
ments made so that they can be used
as desired, in a short time.
An appeal from the conviction of
Thomas J. Coleman, sentenced to FIVE
years in the penitentiary for extortion
was perfected Thursday after much
trouble, and the case will not be put
upon the September term calendar of
the supreme court. A failure to per-
feet bill OF exceptions or file formal
notice of new trial, prevented an APP
peal without special order of court.
Colonel W. 3. Dodge now appearing
for Coleman in place of F. ii. Board
man, Thursday took up the matter
County Attorney AL j. Smith before
Judge F. V. Brown. The court granted
Mr.. Dodge's request to file bill of
exceptions as of the date OF June Is.
he signed the bill and allowed a notice
OF new trial based on that bill to be
filed as of the same date.
Jacob Schmahl, an inmate of the.
home for old people at the hospital in
this city, died Friday afternoon after
a lingering illness at the advanced age.
OF ninety-one years. His remains were
taken to Redwood Falls by his son
Herman, where they were laid to rest.
He was the father of Julius Schmahl
the present candidate for secretary Of
state on the republican ticket, and
man whose acquaintance extends over
the period of time that embraces the
organization OF this state in the very
early days. Chased by the Indians in
1862 he sought refuge in Fort Ridgely
and was for sometime resident of
Traverse and is remembered by many
OF the older settlers OF this part of the
country. He is one of the few remain
ing men who took part in the christen-
ing of Herman Nagel when he was
given his Indian name, the event form
ing one of the items of interest ID the
history of this city.
Among those who have expressed
themselves as to the best place in the
! city for the location of the federal
building the choice of the majority
appears to be the corner where the
Andring livery barn is if it is possible
to get it at a price that will come with
in the limit of the appropriation. Il
is certainly an excellentcorner, having
| two of the widest streets in the city on
two sides of it and being in the very
| center OF the city and accessible to all
| parts of the business district. It is
argued by some that the matter of be-
| ing accessible to the business part of
the city does not matter, but it does.
/ There are many of the business men of
] the city who will continue to get their
mail at the post ofices because it is
quicker than to wait for the delivery
and this will continue as long as the
office is accessible. The question as to
whether the postofice will benefit the
business Of any part of the city il
which it is located is hardly to be con-
sidered for with the delivery of mail
both local and rural there is very little
call for people to goto the post Office
as compared with the past and there
fore it will scarcely bring trade to any
section to any spprecisble extent
