Establish a Sales Day in
Brinkley.

.'In looking over our exchanges we
find that number of towns In this
State have set aside one day In each
month as Sales Day. The idea Is not
intended to convey the fact that mer-
chants alone are to be the sole gamers
on this occasion, but farmers are to
receive some attention along the lins.
These Sales Days are intended. In one
sense Of the word, to let the farmer
Who is overburdened with horses. COWS
hogs, chickens, sheep, goats, ETC.. have
a chance to rid himself Of the unneces-
sary lot.
Suppose. for instance. a man in the
Southern part Of the comfy has mule
to sell and a man in the northern part
wanted mule badly. and each knew
the first Monday in each month was
Sales Day. they would be on hand and
each would be satisfied ?
The above is good suggestion and
the merchants and farmers Of Monroe
county would do well to establish a
Sales Day for Brinkley. II means
money to the merchants, the farmer
ard the town. Who'll start the move
ment.

PLEADS NOT GUILTY.
Mike Russell Says He Did Not Dc
Things Charged.

Michael Russell was arraigned before
Judge Comstock late yesterday after
noon on the warrant gotten out by j.
A. Stockdill charging him with having
committed an assault in the third de-
gree upon his fourteen year old daugh.
ter, Edith The warrant charges that
Russell "made an assault by then and
there holding in his hand repeating
rifle and pointing the same toward said
Edith Stockdill and wilfully discharging
the same toward her, the said Edith
Stockdill, thereby putting the said
Edith Stockdill in great fear, with in
tent then and there had by said Mike
Russell of putting said Edith Stockdill
in great fear of danger"
w. R. Geddes appeared as Russell's
attorney, and moved to dismiss on the
ground that the complaint does not
state facts constituting public offense
This will be argued before the trial
which was set for May 3lst at l:30 p
m. after the defendant had entered a
plea of not guilty. The defendant was
required to give recognizance in the
sum of $500.
1t is said that the Russell and Stock
dill families, who are neighbors in Ger
esco, have had some trouble, and that in
the encounter which took place Sunday
the two young daughters of Mr.. Stock
dill were near the Russell home when
Mr.. Russell approached and fired five
bullets over their heads, badly frighten-
ing them. This is the account of the
affair as given to the state.

BOON FOR CONSERVATIVES.
Simple Preparation Cured An Iowa
Boy Of Disease.

Clinton, Iowa, May 2s.-Harry Mac
lay of this city, aged % years, who was
in the secondary stages of tuberculosis,
is experiencing a cure which is consid-
cred remarkable.
Five weeks ago he was weak and i'll
scarcely able to walk, and troubled with
all the symptoms of consumption. His
sputum was examined by DR.. C. E. Eag-
an of the Illinois board at Spring
field, who said he was afflicted with tu-
berculosis in an advanced stage
In this extremity the father of the
young man, w. J. Maclay of ll3 North
Sixth street, Lyons, thought of recipe
he had received some time before from
IN aged man at Chadwick, ILL.,, who de-
clared that the preparation would cure
consumption.
He found the prescription and had it
compounded. The ingredients of the
medicine are butter, tufpentine and or
ganic oil. After using it for five weeks,
young Maclay gained six pounds in
weight and Clinton physicians say he is
recovering rapidly, and that all traces of
tuberculosis are disappearing from his
system.
Mr.. Maclay says the prescription was
given him with the stipulation that !. he
neither barter nor sell it, but give it
free to the afflicted, and he is ready to
make good this condition and to give
or send it to any sufferer.
His son, who few weeks ago was
scarcely able to leave his bed, departed
for Boone to visit relatives there.

SWELL INDIAN WEDDING.
Great Function on the Oneida Reser-
walton in Wisconsin.

Appleton, Wis, May 23.-No Indian
wedding in Wisconsin in recent years
perhaps ever, has caused the talk among
the redskins of the Oneida reservation
as did the one last night, when Miss
Josephine Hill, daughter of the chief of
the tribe, and Isaac Webster, graduate
of Carlisle and a man of independent
wealth, became man and wife. Eight
hundred invitations were sent out. The
ceremony was performed by Rev. Mr..
Merrill, while the couple was blessed
in their native tongue by the Rev. Mr..
HILL father of the bride.
Preparations for the wedding had been
going on for weeks. Forty young In
dians had been drilling as vested choir
and as the bridal couple entered the
church they were scorted by the sing
ers down the aisle to the altar. For a
month previous to the wedding the In
dams have been visiting this city in
large numbers. While the men were
going to clothing stores, the squaws
have been visiting dressmakers.
Next Wednesday evening there will be
reception at the home of the brides
father in honor of the event. 1t is be-
ieved that fully half of the 1900 In
dams on the reservation will be present

FAIR PROSPECTS FINE.
Many Good Horses Will Be Entered

The officers of the Minnesota State

ed over the race and amusement pro-
grams for the coming fairs at st. Peter,
New Tim, Mankato, st. James, Win

fractions, of this city, Vice President
+. G.. Donneclffe of Window, Secretary
f. f. Miller of st. Peter, c. L. Crow
ley of st. James and A. f. Burmaster

The purses hung up amount to $34,-
l25. Word has been received from the
owners of many good horses that they
will have their horses entered in the cir.
cult Several fine attractions have been
listed in the way of amusements, an
nouncement of which cannot be made at
this time as the contracts have not been
signed.
Work on the new fair ground is in
full swing with large force of men,
and it is expected to have everything
completed by July 4th. The track is
beginning to take shape, and one of the

WARNED TO LEAVE.
Beckius' a Comfrey Farmer. Victim
Of White-Cap Methods.

Comfrey, Mimi, May 23.-E. P. Beck
Jus, young farmer residing west of
town, has been the object of assault and
threats for several weeks.
When late on Saturday evening he
went to his barn to do his chores, he re-
ceived blow from fist on the side
of his head and also on his right cheek,
the blows bringing him to the ground.
On recovering from the shock he has
tened to the house, secured his gun and
fired few shots at his assailant, whom
he could see, but did not recognize.
The same day, when in town, he re-
ceived threatening letter through the
mails, getting it himself from the post
office. The letter was brief and written
by an uneducated person, and conveyed
the information that he must leave the
neighborhood at once or suffer death.
Pinned to this letter was a sensa-
tional picture of the killing of the Ital-
ians recently in Minneapolis. Across
this picture were the initials of Mr..
Beckius' name in large letters, "E. P.
B."
Beckius is naturally much wrought
up over the affair. He says he is at
peace with all his neighbors and has no
enemies. He has warned citizens to
stay away from his place at night, as
he is prepared to defend himself with his
shotgun.

COMMITTEES MEET.
Attractions VIII BE Booked at Mimi
eepolis Next Week.

A meeting of some of the Fourth of
July committees was held this fore
noon to see about engaging attractions
for the three days carnival, and about

Minneapolis Monday with power to act
to contract with attractions. This COM
mittee consists of Charles X Otto, W.
R. Kelly and j. Nj. Wiser. 1t is not in
tended to have any free attractions.
The committee on subscriptions was
asked to guarantee the placing in the
bank of the money subscribed, and
agreed to do so. The money will be col
lected in at once, so as to be subject
to the draft of the other committees.
The committee appointed to wait on
the council will ask it to pay the bill
for illuminating the streets. Manager
Brown, for the Mankato Gas and Elec-
trio Light company, has agreed to put
up the customary arches and light them
during the three nights of the carnival
celebration for $l2O, and to donate $25
The committee was asked to see him
again and learn what he will leave the
arches up for and light them two even
in9s week and leave them on during
fair week. The committee will then APP
pear before the council and ask it to
pay for this illumination. 1t is not ex
pected that the council will be acked for
ANYTHING else.
