The dangers Of shipping cream to
distant pointst was illustrated at
st. Paul last week, when the state
Inspector condemned cream ship
nsents from Arlington and six other
Minnesota points, and took measures
TO prosecute the shippers, who are
liable to a fine of from $15 to. 500
under the statutes.
Mrs. Wagner, wife Of the North
Westerns agent IN .Courtland, and
her little daughter. Irene, were
thrown from a buggy in a runaway
accident at New Ulm, the little girl
sustaining a severe fracture of one
of her legs. The runaway was
caused, it is claimed, by an automo-
bile driven by Mr.. Kelm of Sleepy
Eye and the probabilities are that the
injured childs father will institute
a suit for damages.
Mr.. D. Smith left a sample of the
telephone peas on the vine as grown
by him in O. B. Turreli's garden
this summer. The peas were grown
late, yet yielded an immense growth
of vines and peas, the vines running
up the poles to over seven feet in
height. Mr.. Smith says that tele-
phone peas are about the only kind
that find a ready market in recent
years in the St. Paul markets. F.
L. Warner also raised some monster
specimens Of these peas this season.

the conditions attending the trans

and its business men appreciate the

MYSTERIOUS FRI. NEAR DELHI.
David McNaughton Loses Big Barn and
$50 Bushels of Oats.

Was the fire which destroyed
David McNanghton's oat stacks and
barn last Thursday morning acct
dental or incendiary? is a question
that is being discussed by Mr.. Nc
Naughton's neighbors since the ca
tastrophe occurred. The alarm was
first given by Will Hbbetts, who
started the phones to ringing in an
endeavor To find out whether the
flames which he saw alta distance
were in Delhi villagesor elsewhere.
When Mr.. McNaughtor reused him
self to find out what allied the phone,
he was astonished to see. every one
of six stacks Of oats blazing heaven
ward, past all human power to ex-
tinguish. 1t happened that his place
was in the temporarypossession of a
threshing crew which was there to
begin the work of threshing the
oats that morning. The men turned
out with a will to protect Mr.. Nc
N u e hton's property near the
stacks, and an hour or so later were
cengratulating themselves over what
seemed to be a successful fight,
when fire was seen issuing from the
inside of Mr.. McNaughton's barn,
which is one of the finest in this
county and will cost about $500 to
replace. Another fight was under
taken to subdue these flames, but
all that could be accomplished was
to remove some of the contents. The
barn was totally consumed, even the
concrete foundation being so badly
damaged that it will have to be re-
built.
Secretary Stewart went with the
adjusters and the loss was adjudged
total, on which the company will
pay $1410 for oats and barn, which
is probably less than half the amount
of Mr.. McNaughton's loss. David
has no theory to account for the
burning, though he is not inclined
to agree with those of his neighbors
who hint at incendiarism. We have
heard no probable motive for incen-
diarism, and it is possible that in
vestigation may hereafter explain
the confagration as accidental.

CURRENCY PAYMENTS

CHICAGO is PROM

Chicago, ILL.,, Nov 2S.-Direct re-
ports 10 the Chicago clearing house
from hundreds of western cities
throughout the week encouraged the
local bankers yesterday to believe
that resumption OF cash paym ents
will be possible within two weeks or
possibly ten days.
When the clearing house commit

TO the circular letter sent out last
week asking for statements OF can

cally all OF the letters, It was an

There was considerable diversity of
opinion, however, as to how a gener-

about. Some thought II feasible to

BONES MAY SOLVE THE
MYSTERY of MISSING
" 0 N A n
Friends viii Attempt to Iden.
tify Teeth as Those of
Hattie Knox.
BODY ENTIRELY
DEVOID OF CLOTHING

Prescott, Arlz., Nov. 2S.-The find
Ing of bleaching bones of a woman
near the tracks of the Bradshaw
railroad near wager station by Sec
ton man, promises to solve the mys-
terry OF the disappearance of Hattie
Knox, who wandered away from
Humbolt several months ago. Teeth
taken from the body are said to look
ike the front teeth of the woman
from Humbolt.
The bones were entirely devoid of
flesh and no clothing was found near
them. The mystery of the disap-
pearance Of Hattie Knox has caused
much speculation and after hunting
the country for miles around Hum
bolt the authorities concluded that
the woman had left the country.
The place where the body was
found is a great distance from any
settlement and in a very uneven
country. There Is no water near by
and the conclusion Is that that wo-
man died from thirst and following a
custom OF people desperately thirsty
tore all the clothes from her body as
she wandered.
When the discovery was reported
at Humbolt, Justice Francis, with a
coroner's jury, went to the scene of
the find, and began an inquest, which
will be continued today. He brought
away with him some Of the teeth
from the skull, in hopes that some-
one In Humbolt might be able to
Identify them as having belonged TO
Hattie KNOX, and thus complete the
Identification.
After the coroner's jury completes
It's investigation, the skeleton will be
buried where found.

looted corporations is the opinion OF
Stuyvesant Fish.
"As has been foretold," said Fish,
''the present crisis is due to utter lack
of confidence in corporate manage
ments controlled and directed from
Wall street and such lack of conf
dence Is world wide. To reestablish
confidence abroad we must first re-
establish 1t at home and particularly
in the agricultural communities west
and south. where the real wealth of
the country is produced. Neither
corporations nor government has as
yet acted officially, hence we are
