SENDS CONSCIENCE MONEY
One Troubled Soul Forwards Cash
to Or. Doran at sNinona.

Winona Independent: DR.. Frank
Doran of the Central Methodist church
in this city yesterday received a let
ter under unusual circumstances. Ten
years ago, while DR.. Doran was at
tending convention at Rochester, he
was approached by mere casual ac-
quaintance with the request that he
lend him $25. From his appearance
and from what Mr. Doran knew of the
man, he was inclined to believe the
story and felt that to help the man
in a financial way would be doing
good. While Mr.. Doran did not have
the ready money, he himself borrowed
it and gave it to his newly acquired
friend, accepting his promise to pay
the favor back whenever good for
tune smiled upon him. Since that day
Mr.. Doran has heard nothing of the
man until yesterday when he re-
ceived letter postmarked Portland,
Ore, which contained money order
for about $42, the sum borrowed with
six per cent compound interest added
from the date of the unique transac-
tion. The letter came as a complete
surprise as Mr. Doran had forgotten
about the incident and he is still won

fully honest as is this man.

TRAIN ESCAPED BAD WRECK
Chicago Great Western Passenger
Came Near BEING DeraIied.


The Chicago Great Western train,
due into Mankato at 9:20 p. m. was
derailed about five miles south of
Mankato last night. The engine crew
noticed fire flying from the tank
wheels and the tank came near going
in the ditch Brakes were applied
instantaneously and the train brought
to a quick stop. Examination showed
the tank wheels to be riding the ties
instead of the rails. Superintendent
Banks and number of the officials
were in a private car attached to the
train. They told the engine crew that
they were well pleased that train was
stopped without derailing the coaches,
and everybody on the train thought
it a narrow escape from what might
have been bad wreck. 1t took forty
minutes to put the engine on the
track and the train came into Man
kato forty minutes late. The train
was in charge of Engineer Page, Fire
man Murphy, Conductor Cardwell and
Brakeman Steans.

KNOCKING SECRETARY TAF7
Other Presidential Candidates Trying
to Reduce His Showing.

Washington, April According to
a northwest representative, ''the most
interesting fact, in connection with
the gossip about the preliminary pres
idential campaign is that the favorite
son candidates themselves do not share
in the optimism expressed by the OPP
position to Secretary Taft"
"This is especially noteworthy with
respect to all the candidates who are
regarded as having any chance for the
republican nomination in the event
| that Secretary Taft" he added, "does
not win. Attention is frequently call
ed to the fact that Speaker Cannon,
who is regarded as the most available
candidate in the list of the opposition,
is said to entertain the belief that
Secretary Taft will win.
"More important than this is the
fact that no one can point to an in
cident of Speaker Cannon giving any
encouragement whatever to the ac-
tion of his friends in Illinois or else.
where in pressing his name for the
republican nomination"
These comments were made yester
day apropos of statement given out
by the latest press bureau establish
ed here to disseminate information in
the interests of the opposition to
Secretary Taft The declaration is
made in the statement that so much
is published by the newspapers from
time to time coming from Secretary
Taft's friends that the fayorite son
candidates do not obtain fair show
ing in the newspapers.
The most important feature of this
statement given out in the interests
of the favorite son candidates is the
I fact that it reduces the actual num-
Der of instructed delegates for Secre-
tary Taft from $50 to l4O. The basis
for this claimed reduction is not that
the delegates have not been instructed
for Secretary Taft, but-that there is
some objection to the form of the
instructions which, it is asserted VIII
induce the republican national COM
mittee to decline to seat the delegates.
In addition to this, the opposition
statement swells the total of the con-
tested delegates to forty-two, making
larger list of contested delegates
than the advices to the Taft head
quarters here or to the headquarters
of the republican national committee
actually warrant.

BARRED WlFE'S RELATIVES
Richard Hsrkins Willing to Support
z. ,,s Her, But Not Her Kin.

From Wednesdays Daily. ,-s" s~l
!+Some time ago Richard Harkins was
prosecuted by his wife on the charge
of norssupport, but he furnished a
bond that he would support her. This
afternoon a hearing was had before
Judge Comstoek to see whether he had
fulfilled the obligations of the bond.
It appeared that he has rented a
house on Bunker hill, and wrote his
wife to come, but told her that if
certain of her relatives came to the
house he would throw them out. He
also made some other provisions.
It appears that Mrs. Harkins wrote
back that if her husband wanted her
to come he must provide new furni-
ture, as she was not going to bring
that which they had used before, eX-
cept what he had purchased Letters
written by Harkins to his wife were
introduced in evidence. -
Mrs. Harkins was asked whether she
would 60 from the court room to the
house rented by her husband, and
said that she would not. Harkins
said that she had told him that she
did not want to live with him, but
wanted divorce. She dernied this
but admitted that she did not want
him to converse with her. s.
The court ordered Harkins to pay
his wife So per. week until July
for the support of the children and
he is to appear before the judge on
that date. --.

Deputy Sheriff Riley had charge OF
Yesterday, on road work in the north
part of the city, near the fair ground
skipped out. He was ten day pri,
soner, serving out a sentence fol-
drunkenness, and a stranger in the
city. He asked permission to hang up
his overcoat, that had fallen from the
fence, and went with it around be-
hind the fence. After he had been
there long enough to hang up dozen
overcoats, the officer went and looked
around the fence, but the man was not
there. He had taken his overcoat and
made good his escape. This is the
first hard labor prisoner to escape.

Sheriff Donahue today received a
telegram from the deputy sheriff at
Chinook, Mont, saying that he has
Arthur Wrightson in jail there. The
authorities of Chinook have been very
anxious to secure Wrightson, who is
accused of having forged the name
of cattle men to four checks. He
formerly lived at Lake Crystal, and
thinking that he would return to visit
his relatives, the authorities of Chi
nook have been in close communication
with the local authorities for some
time. Wrightson, however, did not re-
turn home.
Wrightson was formerly rural mail
carrier out of Vernon Center but ii
appears that while so employed he was
accused of tampering with letters
according to statement made today
by Sheriff Donahue, but the matter
was hushed up and he was not prose
cuted. He then went west.
