morning received the following letter
from ST. Paul:
"Your favor of May 10th, inviting
Gov. Johnson to address your society

has engagements for normal and high

board meetings at the capitol. | am
sure he would like to meet the members
of your society and that he will regret
very much that he is unable to accept
your kind invitation
Thanking you in his behalf for the
honor you have done him, 1 remain,
very respectfully yours, Frank A. Day,

SWIFT As THE WIND
Escaped Lunatic Makes a Fast
Run in Early Morn

Minneapolis, May lS.-Wearing a
running suit of light underwear Frank
Zeiolka, an escaped lunatic ran the
eighteen miles from Anoka to Mime
apois in eXectlv three hours. Only the
birds and a rev farmers Dound for the
Anoka creamery witnessed the wild
flight, and even the farmers thought he
belonged to a relay team on cross
country run. Zeiolka arose at five this
morning and leaped from the second
story window and hit a pace from Ano-
ka that would easily have won him a
laurel wreath in Athens.
After three hours of pounding over a
dusty, dirty road even crazy man is
footsore and thirsty, so the Minneapolis
Brewing company seemed to have a haven
of refuge, but instead of refreshing his
parched and burning mouth with cool
and restful beer the brewery employees
called the police.
The lunatic realized they would take
him back to Anoka. A little ways far
Their on the Mississippi flowed serene
ly by.
1t was Anoka or the river. Without
hesitation the insane man chose the
river. He was headed off, however, and
is now in the lookup waiting to 90 back
to the asylum. Friends of Zeiolka, it is
said, will make an effort to have him
released from the asylum because they
claim his sanity was proven when he
fled away from Anoka to Minneapolis.

The Christian EndeavOr society has a
membership of seventy with an average
attendance of fifty. They have, besides
meet their own expenses, contributed
$50 to foreign missions.
The Ladies' Missionary society have
done noble work. They have raised $ll3
for home missions, $lOl.O6 for foreign;
$2349 for the contingent fund, and
other amounts reaching altogether $50.
Special praise is due to the Ladies'
Aid society. Starting the year, April
/, 1905, with balance in the treasury
of $56426, they have since raised
S77l.l4, making grand total of ST.,
335.40. They generously voted $1,000
to be applied to the mortgage on the
church. This together with other dis
bursements leave a balance on hand of
$l93.5s.
A very pleasant social gathering was
held afterwards, the Ladies' society
serving ice cream and waters.
