just as unreliable as their Kisses. OF course,
he said, a man would rather be applauded
than shouted at, but base ball crowd

kind of men attended the game, they were
all the same way II things didn't go right.
AS a rule. he said, he never paid any atten-
ton to the howIs of the crowd, but he knew
there always comes a time in the career of
a bail player when the howl take him out
means something. and when that time

a few years hope my husband will settle
down to something else"

Village Of Currie Was Treated to
Some Real Excitement.

from saturdays Daily.
The little village of Currie was treat
ed to a real sensation one day last week
when COW hide carnival was held on
the main street. Mrs. Eva Swartwood
furnished the spectacle of public horse
whipping her former husband, whom she
accuses of threatening her several times.
The couple were divorced some time ago.
According to testimony given in Judge
Hyslop's court in Slayton Wednesday,
Solomon Lawer, one of the Currie fell
lows, was the main instigatOr of the
plot. He secured the whip for the wo-
man, wound it with wire, and gave les
sons in the art of using it. Mrs. Swart-
wood met her former husband on the
sidewalk near the postoffice and proceed
ed to make him jig ragtime. The vic
tim was given terrible flashing but
through it all never moved muscle. The
excitement was witnessed by quite a
crowd.
Wednesday, the woman, Lawer and
Henry Casper were brought before Judge
Hyslop in Slayton. They entered a plea
of guilty and Lawer drew $50 fine,
with cost Casper and the woman paid
$25 each for their high grade fun.

In this weeks issue of The Herald, the

Q. Daley:
"The democrats for one or more cam
paigns in this county have stood by and
let the republicans do all the electing,
not even trying to put ticket in the
field, excepting one or two nominees
who were not wise to the actual condi-
tions, and went forth to the slaughter
This was largely due to the fact that
they had no wise, daring and discreet

municipal campaigns they have discoy-
cred such a chieftain in City Attorney

fore him in the city elections, clear

that he looks like Dick Croker of Tam

Daily is Crocker's superior. They argue
that had Croker been located in Man

now be hobno5ing with King Edward

hunted the animals for several days.
Their first success came Wednesday
night, when one of the leopards was
shot while in the barnyard of Peter R.

has been allowed outside the doors of
the homes and even the women are
afraid to 60 out at night. Every house,
barn and shed in which the human race
and the domestic animals are harbored
has been doubly locked and barricaded.
Firearms which have not been used
for years have been cleaned and oiled.
Every man, woman and child is on the
watch for the dreaded beasts.
Sunday afternoon Frank NJ Reid, town
chairman of this place, received word
that three head of cattle had been killed
on the farm of James Williams, north
of the village. Monday reports were re-
ceived from Arkdale, New Lisbon and
Cranberry Center that the animals had
been seen prowling in the woods on the
outskirts of these places. The same
light DR.. G. H. Parham, one of the Ne
cedah posse, sighted the leopards on
Frank Hudson's farm and fired three
shots, but missed Tuesday morning
Frank w. West discovered that four of
his cattle had been killed.
Although reports were received here
on Wednesday that the leopardS had
been sighted at different places during
the night, no one succeeded in getting
shot at them. Three cattle were
killed on Hudson's farm late Tuesday
night. William Greenburg and his sons.
Morris and Fred, discovered the animals
in stretch of timber west of here at
dusk Wednesday night, Reinforced by
other residents they secured the woods,
but were unsuccessful.
From the conflicting reports received
last night it seems the two remaining
leopards were seen in every section of
the country Wednesday night, and the
hunters were completely at sea as to
the locality which should be searched
The last report received gave the num-
Der of cattle killed as seventeen.

From TUESDAYS Daily

From Tuesdays Daily
The ball game at Sibley park Iester-
day afternoon, which was one of the
features of the afternoon program of the
labor day celebration, was witnessed by
large crowd. The Mankato ball club
had no difficulty i'll defeating the Leather
Founders by the score of thirteen to two.
The Mankato team ran up eight scores
in one inning, when their opponents went
to pieces, but otherwise the game was
an interesting one Sheldon and Rabe
were the battery for the Mankato team,
and Loeffler and Mccall for the Leather
Founders.
Fifteen hits were secured off of Loeff-
ler, and five off of Sheldon. A home run
by Rabe was one of the features of the
game.
The program of sports had to be varied
from somewhat The tug of war between
the quarry workers and stone cutters
was left out The obstacle race and
pony race were also omitted.
The fifty yard foot race between ex-
presidents of the Trades and Labor as
sembly was won by Amel Hildebrand,
first, who got prize of a box of cigars,
and Alderman Joseph Hampl second,

The free for all foot race was won by
Floyd Cook, an Eagle Lake boy, who
covered the distance of fifty yards in
the remarkably short time of five and
three fourths seconds, by a stop watch.
The first prize waas $500
The pleasures of the day were fittingly
closed with a grand ball at Schiller hall,
which continued until after two o'clock
this morning, and was attended by more

great success. The music was furnished
by four piece orchestra furnished from
the Concordia orchestra, and all tripped
the light fantastic to their hearts con-
tent 1t was the largest attendance yet
had at labor day dance.
The Trades and Labor assembly came
out from 500 to 5000 to the good as
a result of the day. This is the most
that it ever made on Labor day, and
will swell the funds in the treasury.
