WOULD NAVIGATE THE RIVER
Iowa Men Wants to Operate Boat
Between Mankato and St. Peter.

From Saturdays Daily.
Postmaster Veigel is in receipt of the
following communication:
Dubuque, Iowa, March ID, 1908.
Postmaster, Mankato, MINI. Dear Sir:
l contemplate putting on steamboat
between Mankato and st. Peter the
coming season, providing the conditions
are such that a light draft boat can
be navigated between those points in
low water. My idea is to make sew
eral round trips daily between those
points and the outfit | have will
carry about $50 passengers each trip.
Can you advise me as to the con-
dition of the river between the points
mentioned, stage of water when the
river is dead low, and distance between
said points via river; OF if not familiar
with conditions, can you refer me TO
some one who can give me reliable
information on the subjectY OF course
I understand that a steamboat would
have to be gotten up to Mankato dur
ing high water in the spring, IN or
der to get over the rapids. What L
desire to ascertain is whether or not
a boat of reasonable light draft can
be navigatcd under all conditions dur
ing the entire season after getting her
there.
In your opinion, would an outfit OF
this kind be patronized, and is there
sufficient travel between the two
points to Justify the outlay?
Thanking you in advance for an
early reply, I am, yours very truly,
10. +. Knapp.

Fine Prospect of Another Large
Hospital for Mankat0.
SITE WANTED BY PROMOTERS
Twin Cities Made Pro positions to the
German Evangelical Assocla-
ton, Matter in Charge.

From SATURDAYS Daily
There is a prospect of Mankato Sc
curing another hospital, to be as large
as the two present hospitals put to-
gether. The German Evangelical as
ISOLATION is looking ror location of
a hospital which it proposes to ex
pend 100000 upon in building and
equipping, and Mankato is one of the
four cities which are now under con-
sideration. st. Paul, Minneapolis, and
one other town are the others. At
first other places were talked of, but
now the choice has dwindled down to
the four. The local pastor is a mem
Der of the building committee, and two
members of the committee reside in
st. Paul.
Cities Have Made Offers.
1t is understood that st. Paul and
Minneapolis have both made offers
of Il site and some financial assistance,
and Mankato would be expected to do
the same. This, in effect, was what
was done when the present hospitals
were secured, and no one has ever re-
GREETED what it cost to secure them.
The advent of the Emmanuel hospital
has had no effect on the business of
st. Joseph's hospital, and it is not
thought that the location of the third
hospital would have any effect upon
the present two, for the reason that it
would be backed by another church
and would bring to Mankato patients
who would go to the hospital if it was
located in some other city.
The Evangelical association has for
ty congregations in several of the
northwestern states to draw upon for
support, and with such backing the
hospital would be bound to succeed.
Committee to Take Matter UP.
The Mankato Commercial club is to
take up the matter. The church asso-
citation met the other day and appoint
ed committee of Mankato business
men to present the matter to the Com
mercial club, and this committee will
meet next Wednesday night with the
advisory board of the club. The com.
mittee of business men consists of H.
A. Patterson, Judge Lorin Cray, B. F.
Pay, Theodore G. Webber, Mayor j.
w. Andrews, Charles X. Otto and F.
NJ. Currier The matter will be gone
over, and the desires of the associa
ton learned, and if it is found that
they are such as might be complied
with, special meeting of the entire
Club will be called later to take it up.
1t is to be hoped that the efforts to
secure the institution will meet with
success. A hospital is worth as much
to city as factory, and it is in
operation day and night, regardless of
financial conditions. The patients ex-
pend large sums of money, and numer-
oils visitors come to the city to see
them and stop at the hotels and buy
things of the merchants. This all ad-
yertises Mankato, also.

The fair management has been criti-
cised because it contemplates reproduc-
ing on the grounds portrayal of in
cidents connected with the Indian out
break of 1862. 1t appears that the
plans and intentions of the manage
ment have been greatly misunderstood.
1t is not the purpose to portray the
horrors connected with the massacre,
but simply to throw upon canvas
scenes incident to the siege of New
Tim, also the siege at Fort Ridgeley
historic events of the Indian war of
1862. These scenes will serve to show
to the rising generation and people
from abroad the heroism which charac
terized the early settlers in this sec
ton.

MACHINE LEADERS TO

SUCCESSOR TO SMITH MUST
BE ANTI-LEAGUER
Governor GiiIett Expected to ABIDE
bv Decision of "Regulars" Re-
aardlng Next Member of
Local Bench

There is little probability that Gov
ernor Gillett will do anything toward
appointing a successor to Judge b. IN
Smith for several days, and it may be
longer than that before the name OF
the man who is to assume the vacancy
on the bench here is known.
There is little doubt that whoever IS
appointed will have to show clean
bill of slate against any connection
with the Lincoln Roosevelt league at
the recent primaries. There are SAID 10
be many candidates for the ONCE anu
several names have been mentioned al
rady.
Attorney Frank r. Willis. law part
ner of Attorneys LeCompte DAVIS anu
Jud r. Rush, is known to be seeking
nomination to the superior bench at the
next election, and 1T may ne that ne
will find favor for the appointment
now in the eyes of the governor.
G. C. Bowen, who was an unsuccess-
ful candidate for nomination two years
ago, may make a race for the vacancy.
BENJAMIN Hahn of Pasadena also Is
said to be out for the position, as wen
as George d. Gibbs of Pasadena wno
was appointed to place on Tue su
nerior court bench by Governor George
Pardee when the number of judges III
this county was increased and Judge
Matthew T. Allen was sent from the
superior to the appellate bench.
1t is probable that after the funeral al
of Judge Smith other candidates VIII
appear for the vacancy, ana Ime rae

will name the successor of the DEAD

CANVASS COMPLETED IN
SEVENTEEN DISTRICT
Akey Saved from Defeat by Narrow
Margin of Twenty-Five Votes.
Regular Democratic
Ticket Elected

The vote of the Seventeen assembly
district was canvassed after much de-
lay by the supervisors yesterday, and
upon it's completion Chief Clerk L. j.
Paxton began preparing certificates for
the delegates shown to be elected.
The delay in the Seventeen was due
to the inability to get the election Of
ficers to the supervisors office to au-
thenticate the returns from the 10th
precinct They appeared yesterday
morning and the vote was canvassed.
All the other districts stand as report
ed Saturday.
Another cause of delay in the Sew
entieth was the votes cast for j. v.
Akey and j. ]. Akey. They were all
intended for j. V. Akey, candidate on
the Lincoln Roosevelt ticket, but only
those having the proper middle initial
could be counted for him. The double
voting was due to an error in the
preparation of the pastors used by the
league, and occurred in fourteen pre-
cincts. In all 1913 erroneous ballots were
cast, and during their count it was
feared they would defeat Akey. But
after a careful count by Mr., Paxton
it was shown that Akey still led his
nearest competitor, P. A. Howard of
the regular ticket, by twenty-five
votes.
In the SEVENTEEN the regular Demo-
cratic ticket won by small plurality,
Frank Goings receiving the smallest
vote, which was only nine votes ahead
of o. e. Parish, who led the Demo-
cratic league ticket. The vote on both
party tickets was as follows;

TENT MEETING WILL
BE HELD AT BEACH
SUNDAY SCHOOL WORKERS
HOLD CONVENTION
Addresses Delivered by Leading
churchmen of Southern California
Features at Annual Session.
Children Give Program

The annual meeting of the Sunday
school institute of the Protestant Epis-
copal church, diocese of Los Angeles,
was held yesterday in st. Paufs pro-
cathedral parish house.
One of the principal subjects of in
terest y--terday was the rivalry of Los
Angeles and Long Beach for the sum-
mer Sunday school institute, the lat
ter city finally winning the institute.
The election of officers was also marked
with much interest. Following were
the officers elected: Bishop Johnson,
president; Rev. r.. l.. Windsor, first
vice president; Rev. r. b. Gooden, sec
ond vice president; F.. I. Sidley, sec
rotary and treasurer.
Yesterday afternoon the leading fea-
ture was the address by Rev. Afford
A. Butler on 1.-The Obligation of Pas
tors and Teachers to Understand the
Nature of the Child" He said In part:
1.-The greatest work of today is that
among the children. Next to the study
of Gods word is the study of Gods
children so that they may be insepa-
rable.
"A school teacher must be possessed
with a method of self-government so
that the child may receive the benefits
derived from it.
1.-THE rectors should be held respon-
sible as the heads of the Sunday
schools and over the superintendent
and teachers. They should formulate
general plans to be carried out by the
superintendents and teachers for the
best interests of the children.
Assist in School Work
MANY make the plea that they do
not have the time to assist in the Sun
day school work. Might as well say
that a fireman did not have time to
save the children from a burning
building because he had to save the
building.
zone important duty is to help the
weakest of the children so that they
may be strengthened. The time be-
tween and Is years must be guarded
carefully in the lives of Sunday school
pupils and environment should be given
special attention.
"Chldren should never be allowed
to remain in stuffy room. They
should have the best possible accommo-
dations and not the poorest, as is too
often the case. The little tots should
be placed in the front of the room in
stead of the stuffy part of it.
Little children are more sensitive
to suggestion than men and women
end great care should be exercised to
