Receipts and Expenditures for
Last Fiscal Year Compared
With Fifty Years Ago.

The state of Minnesota on July 81
closed the last fiscal year and the
first half century of its existence
with $2,96S,2S2.64 in the treasury,
the total receipts for the year
being s12,446,2so.64, a gain of
about {1,2oo,o00 over the preceding
year. Compared with the figures for
1863, when the total receipts were
42S6, 902.36, and the balance at the end
Of the year was $4,063.1s, these fig
ures forcibly demonstrate the growth
of tho state during the fifty years.
Figures compiled by. State Treas.
urer Dinehart contrasting the states
financial condition in 1858 afford some
striking illustrations of the changed
conditions. In that time the total
amount raised by taxation has grown
from $554,0o0 to $2s,000,000; the as
sessed valuation of all taxable prop.
erty from $41,000,000 to $l,050, 000, 900
and the annual cost of maintenance
and operation of the state institutions
has grown from $500 to over $4,000
900, with a total expenditure for the
support of these institutions for the
semi-centennial period of $33,OO0,0OO.
When the state started doing bust
ness it had state prison and a few
normal schools. Now it has institu-
tional property worth $20,00O,00O and
has permanent school and university
funds aggregating $16,500,000, with
2,750,G00 acres of land still unsold,

OFFICERS FIGHT A
BATTLE WITH MOB
Two Killed and Nine Wounded
as Result Of Clash.

Pensacola, Fla, July 30.-Two men
killed and nine wounded, some of
them fatally, is the result of the clash
between mob bent upon lynching
Ieander Shaw, negro, and the sher-
lift and his forces, in which the mob
finally overpowered the authorities
The lynching was carried out in the
most prominent park of this city.
Shaw assaulted Mrs. Lillian Davis,
q highly respected lady, near this city
during the absence of her husband
and, after cutting her throat almost
from ear to ear, dubbed her over the
head with a revolver which he had
taken from the house.
When it became known that the ne
gro had been arrested crowds began
forming upon the streets and later
they were reinforced by large num-
bers of men from the country. The
mob formed about 9 o'clock in the
evening and made an attack on the
county Jail, where the negro was con-
fined. The jail gate was broken down
by the mob and the sheriff and his
deputies opened tire. Three men
dropped with the first volley from the
sheriff's force, who were using Win
chester rifles and shotguns. Volley
after volley was then fired by the
mob and the sheriffs force, but the
mob was repulsed
About midnight another attack was
made, the mob having been increased
to 1000 determined men. The Sec
ond attack was successful, for the
reason that it was made upon all
sides of the jail. One party forced
its way through the rear, overpowered
the officers and secured the trembling
negro.
A moose WAS slipped about his neck
and after being dragged for ten blocks
he was strung up to an electric light
pole In the center of the park, where
fully 1900 bullets riddled his body.

HUSBAND AND WIFE PERISH
New York Couple Drown in Lake
SiIga, Near Annandale.

Mystery surrounds the death by
drowning of G. R. Raisbeck and his
wife in Lake Silga, near Annandale.
The rowboat in which they had gone
out on the lake was found floating on
the water and in it was the mans hat
Mrs. Raisbeck's body was found near
the shore, but Raisbeck's was farther
out in the lake.
There is no explanation of the
tragedy, but current talk of foul play
seems baseless. The coroner, after
investigation, said that undoubtedly
Mr.. and Mrs. Raisbeck were the vic
tins of accidental drowning.
Mr.. Raisbeck, whose home was in
New York city and who was wealthy,
had spent his summers at Annandale
with his wife for number of years.

berg, was totally destroyed by fire.

the farm near the house when they
discovered the flames, but too late to
save their child or furniture.
