letter from NJ. l.. Holbrook defend-
ing the work OF Deputy Assessor
North in fixing the valuations of
st. Johns property, and criticiling
the article which appeared in The
Review last week in relation there
TO. Our information was not all
secured from the books in the asses
sor office, and we do not accuse
the assessor OF being malicious in
the matter. lie should, however,
have investigated more thoroughly,
and inspected the property SO as to
nix the valuations. The task of
ascertaining the valuations in 81.
Johns is large one, aud some
errors are liable to creep in, no
matter how carefully the work is
done. Mr.. North, who fixed the
valuations, has the reputation OF
being a careful and painstaking
official, but The Review believes
he has been imposed upon in his
work of ascertaining the valuations
OF some OF the property.

Owatonna, Oct. Sensational re-
ports from this city that Frank Nikal
waske, a saloon man of Owatonna
might have been murdered instead OF
taking his own life were thoroughly
discredited by a coroner's jury which
investigated the case.
All the evidence supported the orig
inal theory that Nikalwaske shot him
self in his saloon on Monday and a
verdict of suicide was returned by the
jury. Nikalwaske, it was shown, was
a victim of the drink habit and had
been dismissed by his sweetheart be
cause of his failing. Knowing that
she would not marry him unless he
gave up drinking, and realizing that he
was slave to the habit, he decided
upon suicide as the best way to
end his troubles.

MankatO FOOtballistS Did
the Wells Eleven Fine.
CONTEST ENDED WITH IL TOO
GridirOn Battle Was a Clear One: Also
Decisive Victory for Home
High School Boys.

From Mondays Daily.
The football season in this city was
opened Saturday with a decisive vic
tory for the high school, Everyone
who witnessed the game went home
feeling that they had seen clean one
The game was called at 2:3O sharp.
Williams kicked off to Wells. They
were downed in their tracks and lost
the ball on tumble In series
of brilliant line bucks by Thayer, Will
liams, and Heydon. The ball was car
ried across the goal for touchdown;
Williams kicked neat goal and the
score stood: Mankato 6, Wells O.
During the rest of the half no scoring
was done; but the ball was always in
Wells territory, the Mankato goal
never being seriously threatened.
In the second half Wells kicked off
to Mankato, who advanced the ball
to Wells % yard line. Here Williams
tried dropkick but it went low and
was secured by a Wells player who
was downed on his 30 yard line Wells
was held for downs and the ball went
over. Crossline bucks by Williams and
Thayer placed the ball on Wells 3
yard line where it was carried across
by Lee. Williams succeeded in kick
ing the goal which was difficult being
at quite an angle. Score: Mankato
II, Wells 0. Immediately after this
the whistle sounded and the game was
over.
Considering that it was the first
game and that the team was mex
perienced, it was splendid game. On
the defense the team did good work
holding Wells for downs four or five
times.
Particularly good work was done on
the defense by Williams and Pond
who were in every play. On the Of
Tense Thayed and Williams were the
ground gamers, going through for three
or four yards every play. A great
deal of the high schools success re-
suited from the accurate passing of
the quarterback, Richard Wood, who
managed the team well and showed
good judgment in the pinches. The
whole team displayed great ability and
when smoothed up ought to de-
velop team worthy of representing
our city and high school. The line
UP for Mankato was as follows:
L. E., f. Jones; i. r., w. San
born; L. G., f. Cook; C., L. Dodds;
r. G. G. Dobbin; r. L. II. Lee and =.

Next Saturday the local sports will
be able to witness double header
between the first and second teams of
Mankato and Madeia at Sibley park.

Friends Of Oscar Bierbauer
Anxious Over Absence.
HAVE NOT HEARD FROM HIM
Many Cares Have Weighed
Upon Man of Late.
From Fridays Daily.


Friends of Oscar Bierbauer, presi
dent of the Mankato Mailing company
are somewhat worried over his where
abouts, he having left this city, last
Sunday afternoon, and has not com
municated with his business associ-
ates since that time. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Bierbauer returned Sunday
noon from Chicago, and later in the
day went to the Twin Cities. His
absence and the fact that he has not
written those with whom he has bust
ness connections, is the cause for no
little apprehension on their part. Last
evening one of his closest friends stat
cd that he did not know where MIR.
Bierbauer could be. 1t was stated to-
day by one of the mailing company
stockholders, that the affairs of the
concern are being checked up. While
somewhat alarmed over Mr.. Bierbauer's
absence, his friends are confident that
he will return. Business cares have
worried him considerably of late.
Vice President In Charge.
Meanwhile Vice President Petersen
and the directors have taken charge
of the mailing company's affairs, which
are in no way embarrassing. The con-
Germ is in prosperous condition, but
a bunch of contracts made some
months ago to supply concerns with
malt, and the recent advance in the
price of that article and barley has
caused Mr.. Bierbauer no little worry.
However, the company, so it is learned,
will be in position to meet every
contract.
Mr.. Bierbauer's wife died about two
years ago and since then he has been
respondent. This coupled with his ex-
tensive business affairs has borne
heavily upon him. His friends fear
that he is suffering an attack of
nervous prostration.
One of Mr.. Bierbauer's personal
friends departed from the city today,
and it was limited by some that he
had hopes of locating the man. There
has been nothing of criminal nature
connected with Mr.. Bierbauer's deal
ings, and no warrant is out for his
arrest, reports to the contrary not
withstanding.
Has Long Lived in Mankato.
Mr.. Bierbauer has long been resi-
dent of Mankato. He was for ten
years and more register of deeds
of Blue Earth county. He was a
leading republican politician in this
county, and has host of friends,
who will be ready to assist him. He
has occupied prominent place in
business circles and his integrity has
never been questioned.
Attached Bierbauer's Property.
This afternoon attachment proceed
ings were instituted by the National
Citizens bank to protect the interests
which Mr.. Bierbauer has Endorsed. The
amount is stated to be $4,000 and
more. Private property owned by MIR.
Bierbauer was taken possession of by
Sheriff Donahue.
Friends of Mr.. Bierbauer state. that
his property is ample to cover all
the Endorsements and much more. He
is interested in the Security flats with
Charles j. Macbeth. He also has ex-
tensive interests which make him a
wealthy man.
1t is reported that Mr.. Bierbauer
was seen, in Chicago last Monday.
He appeared to be worrying, but
did not state when he would return
to Mankato.
