Mankato to George F. Fisher for 81
800 cash. The deal was made through
NJ. G. Wizards agency.
Mr.. Fisher is a railroad contractor
from Springfield, who, for the last
two years has been working with Win
stOn Bros. He comes to Mankato on
account of its central location, super
ior shipping advantages, etc. He is
La valuable accession, and will receive
a hearty welcome into business cir
cles. The Free Press wishes him the
largest possible success that may re-
suit from his change of base.
James p. Hayes, the teamster who
was arrested yesterday afternoon on
the charge of unlawfully permitting
the placing of an obstruction on the
street, asked for time to plead, and
the case was continued until today,
and then again until nine o'clock to-,
morrow morning.
/ There is an ordinance that makes
it unlawful to drop broken stone,
manure or other things on the streets.
Broken stone on the brick pavement
renders the brick likely to crack
under the weight of heavy wagons.
If tight wagons are not provided for
these things, the place to haul them is
in the alleys, or at least on unpaved
streets.
The funeral of the late Mrs. George
HI. Marsh took place at two o'clock
this afternoon from the house, and
was largely attended. The services
were conducted by Rev. E. L. Heer-
nance, and were short but impressive.
In order to render the services brief,
because of the condition of Mrs.
Cressey, music was ommitted. The
interment was made at Glenwood
cemetery.
While Raymond Hughes and son
of George w. Scherer were driving out
on the Fletcher road this forenoon
they met William Volk of North
Mankato, who was coming in with his
automobile. The young men were
driving Henry Hughes horse, and it
became frightened. They say that
they signaled to Mr.. Volk to stop, but
he may not have noticed this for
they say that he came on without
abating his speed. The horse went
over the embankment with them, and
Mr.. Scherer was thrown out and
slightly injured. Mr.. Hughes retained
ed his hold of the lines and stopped
the horse after it had run a ways
He was bruised somewhat and the
buggy was slightly damaged.
Game and Fish Warden Jordan went
to Lake Crystal today to see whether
he could not straighten out a difficult
ty that has arisen there in regard to
the fish, The Omaha has dam be-
tween Lily and Crystal lakes, and it
is desired that it put in fishery. The
road is said to be willing to take out
the dam. but it does not want to put
in a fishery.
Mr.. Jordan will ask for. meeting
with the village board for the pur-
pose of talking the situation over, and
it is hoped that some arrangement will
be made whereby the fishway will be
provided.

From Saturdays Daily
The Fairmoint Independent says: G.
P. McQuiggan of the firm of Ward &
McQuiggan was in town this week
looking after the interests of his
firm. Mr.. McQuiggan states that he
does not know nor has the slightest
idea of the whereabouts of his part
ner, w. w. Ward, that the business
at this place was under Wards man
agement, while Mr. McQuiggan had
charge of the st. Paul branch. Mr..
McQuiggan appears to be made of
the right material, for he states that
if let alone and not crowded by bank
ruptcy proceedings, he will use every
effort and endeavor to pay off the
firms indebtedness. He evidently is
not a sympathizer with the Nelson
plan of paying financial obligations.
ST.. Cloud, Mimi, Oct. 26.-Rather
than furnish a $500 bond to keep the
peace, Frank Pardunski, a Benton
county farmer residing near Foley,
went to Jail for thirty days.
Mrs. Pardunski, his wife, whose sim
pie promise that she would refrain
from threatening violence to men
working on county ditch No. 7, would
have given her liberty, refused point
blank, saying she would shoot the
first man who came upon her land,
and she, too, is in Jail with her hus-
band. All this was of record in justice
court at Foley.
1t appears that the Pardunski's
threatened violence to the men and
contractor digging ditch No. I. This
drain as surveyed, passed through a
portion of Pardunski's farm. The con-
tractor swore out warrant for the
arrest of Mr. and Mrs. Pardunski
and asked that they be placed under
bonds to keep the peace. They were
ordered to place bond of $500 or
serve thirty days in Jail.
Mrs. Pardunski was then asked if
she would 60 home and keep the peace.
She said mo" and declared she would
shoot the first man that came on her
land. She then was sentenced with
her husband to the county Jail.

The Rochester Post & Record. He

of the gun and pulled the weapon to-
ward him. The hammer caught on

NARROW ESCAPE
NEW SALEM RESIDENCE STRUCK
BY LIGHTNING DURING THE
STORM THURSDAY.
FIRE ExTlNeUIsHED AND THE
OCCUPANTS SAVED FROM
AWFUL DEATH.

+ New Salem, June 20.-The Christ.
Habener house, occupied by Henry R..
Ringeon. assistant cashier of the First
National, was struck by lightning dur
ing the electric storm about o'clock
Thursday morning. The bolt Of light
ming made an entrance of about three
feet across in thereof, removing the
lath, plastering and paper from FIVE
rooms, and in one room removed the
windowcasing from the window, broke
several windows in the house, and re-
moved the siding from the mousse in
one or two places on the outside. The
only room in the house that was not
touched was the room occupied by Mr..
and Mrs. Ringeon, and it is consider
ed marvel that they escaped death,
or We're not stunned by the shock and
then burned by the fire that would
have followed. Imme diately after the
lightning had struck the house, the
curtains started to burn. the window
casing and floor in one room also, but
by prompt work by Mr.. and Mrs
Ringeon. the fire was extinguished.
The furniture was very badly damaged
and the piano split, so the loss is a
very heavy one not only to the house
but to the furniture.

OTTER PEOPLES SAYINGS.

Observer: It is noticeable that the
city authorities have a number Of
extra police on duty during the car
nival, probably seven or eight, but
none Of them seem to go any farther
than Main street, and spend good
deal Of their time taking in the
shows. It might not be bad idea
to have a part Of this array of Club
carriers spread out over the city and
parol the residence portion occasion
ally while so many strangers are in
the city. No depredations are antict.
pated, but the 1ooting or some ones
house might be prevented, and the
nervous fears Of numerous housewives
might be quoted If the police { q
would do police duty over the whole
city.
