The prohibition candidate for gov
ernor of Minnesota is making a tour
of the more hopeful legislative ter
ritory in four-in-hand tally-ho.
The tally-ho is a three seated pas
senger brake, drawn by four horses
and will comfortably seat nine per-
sons. Its regular occupants will be
Chas. w. Dorsett, Mr.. Stewart or
some other eloquent campaigner,
the business manager and the driv-
er. The day rallies will be held in
the open air and in a hall or church
in the evening.
On Monday a travelling horse
trader by the name of VIM. Herd
was arrested on a charge of drunk
en- and disorderly conduct. says the
Springfield Advance. In the even
ing he attempted to ascend the
flight of stairs at the opera house
and when he reached the top his
propellers got somewhat tangled up
and he fell to the floor below. He
was given berth in the city bastile
over night and the next morning
Justice Semans imposed fine of $40
and costs. In order to raise the
necessary funds the prisoner sold
one of his horses.
Sunday afternoon a tall STRIPPING
just budding into manhood in COM
pany with several youngsters stopped
in front of an attractive apple tree
on the property of W. G. Allyn,
says the GAINESVILLE Argus. One of
the boys proposed that they 60 in
and sWipe some apples. The bunch
did not notice that from an upper
window they were being watched by
a person who could hear all that
was said. The tall young man threw
his leg over the barbed wire fence
but just at that instant he caught
sight of the person who was watch
/ ing and he attempted to bring it
back again. But his pants caught
in the wire and he hung fast. Be
fore he got out of the dilemma he
tore his pants and probably scratched
his skin as well. The moral of all
this is that before you go into an
orchard on Sunday to steal apples
be sure that no one is watching you.
New Ulm News: A farmer on
the opposite side of the Minnesota
river had a little experience on
Monday as a reward for kindness
shown by him. A stranger had
worked thru harvest on a certain
farm and was a good hand. This,
with his age, which is up toward 60
years, awakened some sympathy on
the part of the farmer, who knew
his man had one failing, that of a
fondness for whiskey. So when last
Saturday evening came the farmer
held back 81. so of the mans earn
ings in the hope that this sum would
insure his return for work this week.
But it did not, and when the farmer
was coming to New Ulm Monday
forenoon he overlook his man, and
he noticed that the man was wearing
his coarse boots and had a sack filled
with something. He then requested
that he take off his boots, which he
did, and to open his sack, which con-
tanned some clothing and other arti-
cles taken from the farmers home.
Finding he was caught the man
offered to receipt for the $3.50 due
him on condition that he be not
prosecuted; which offer was accepted
without the receipt. The man is
now akin to tramp, is intelligent,
and evidently has seen better
