WERE THEY ROBBERS OR WHAT?
Police Officer Held Up in the Pre-
cincts Of a Sleepy Eye Bank.

A Sleepy Eye special to the Mime
follows:
1.-THE attempted robbery of the State
Bank of Sleepy Eye, between four and
five O'Clock this morning, was foiled
by Night Policeman Roman Kruger.
That the robbers were not profession
ais was shown by the crude outfit OF
tools which was left behind, and which,
it is suspected, was stolen from pas
senger coaches and the roundhouse in
this city.
I'm making his rounds, Kruger
went through an alley near the bank
and was knocked down from the rear
by robber stationed on guard with
club. The robbers then ran away,
and there is no clue to their Identity
Sleepy Eye citizens who have been
in New Ulm since Saturday scout the
robbery explanation of the incident
and incline rather to the theory that
the whole affair was nothing more nor
less than the escapade of a number Of
enemies of Kruger who laid for him
in the alley and undertook to punish.
him for some alleged grievance.

CLAY PIPE SPOILs HIS CHANCES
Sleepy Eye Youth Refused Admis.
sion to the Navy Because Of
Tobacco Habit.

A ready-made sailor was almost en-
listed at the navy recruiting Office in
Minneapolis last Friday according to
the Minneapolis Tribune.
When William johnson of Sleepy
Eye walked in with rolling sailors
gait, displayed deep knowledge of
sea lore and did regular vaudeville
stunt in sailor dances and could even
sing, s'Yo Ho, Blow the Man Down"
Lieut.. j. B. Gay thought he was about
to secure the prize recruit of the year.
He knew all the bugle calls and even
smoked a clay pipe. His garments,
however, lacked the smell of the marine
world and, strange as it may appear,
the youth had never breathed the salt
air. He had learned everything at
second hand from retired sea cap
tain living next door to him in Sleepy
Eye and was all ready to take hold on
one of Uncle Sans battleships.
However,. the clay pipe turned him
up. When examined by the physicians
he was found to have a tobacco-heart
and all his training on shore had been
for naught. He was sent away, how
ever, with a promise of swift promo
ton in the navy if he would cure him
self and apply again in few months.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
Lot reach the diseased portion of tha
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu'
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustaehian Tube.
When this tube is inf1amed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing
but an infiamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

VFashion Hints

NEW YORK, March 20.-Spring
days will soon call for the new
dress, suit or costume and all their
accessories that have been prepared
for the warmer days. One smart
tailored suit is quite necessary ii
only one costume can be bought at
first. Evening frocks can often be
remodeled and made to last a few
months longer, but the tailored cos
tune has so many decided changes
from last year that they will be too
noticeable for well-dressed women to
wear again. The single-breasted
semi-fitting coat with the full length
sleeve will be the model for the
suit.
The modified directoire coat will
be Immensely popular with the
many-gored skirts and farlng hem.
The coat has a standing collar and
the sleeve is cut in one with the
coat. These, are semi-fltting, reaching
just below the line Of the hips,
where there is a decided flare. The
skirts. to make them flare more,
have narrow sections set in between
the cores from the hem to the knee.
They are much longer than in past
seasons, the most Of them just clear
ing the ground. Braid and buttons
have taken the place of the stitched
field.

CAN BRYAN BE DEFEATED FOR
NOMINATION.

Those who have taken it tacitly
that Bryan had too strong a lead to
be defeated in the Denver conven-
ton will have another chance to fig
ure in the light of recent develop
ments, which point rather to the de-
feat Of the peerless leader than to
his sweeping denomination. In fact,
the matter is practically settled il
New York responds to the instruc-
tiOns of its call for convention and
sends an uninstructed delegation to
the national convention.
There will 1902 delegates TO the
Denver convention. 1t is now figur-
ed that the 78 votes from New
York and the SIS delegates from
Pennsylvania will go uninstructed.
Ohio, with 46 votes, is expected to
favor Judson Harmon as again Bry-
an. Delaware, with six delegates,
will be for Judge Gray, who may
also have the delegates from Mary
land. These states, with the % del
egates from Minnesota, which will
be for Johnson, would make a total
OF 226 delegates against Bryan. I'm
der the two-thirds rule 1t would be
necessary to round up only 100 more
delegates to prevent the nomination
81 the Nebraska leader and the adop-
ton of his platform.
This accounts for the intense ac-
fiVity of Bryan at he present time.
when he appears to be making as
strenuous a campaign as has ever
characterized his political move
ments. II seems evident that the
high tide of Organism has passed.
The activity of Johnson, Gray and
others cannot be otherwise account
ed for except on the basis that they
have some positive assurances that
the future is full of breakers for
Bryan. The tone of the editorials in
the leading democratic journals In
the East is now most bitter against
Bryan, where two months ago they
were in the attitude of helpless res
fgnation. Illustrations may be null
fiplied to show that Bryan may win
at Denver only after the greatest
battle he has yet had to make.
