Milton Reisling, the Hayes
Midland stage driver spent a very
unpleasant night last Monday. His
horses playing out some five or
six miles from Hayes owing to the
deep snow. Finding it impossible
to 60 any further he sought the
friendly shelter of a wsyside shack
where he found feed and shelter
for the horses but nothing to
satisfy his inner self nor any
CHEEKY fire to warm him, SO he
was forced to spend the night in
a nearby haystack, but he was not
without recompense, however, for
he dreamed he was Peary and had
the North Pole cut down for
kindling wood, but on searching
for a match he woke up.-Mid-

MARAUDFR CAUGHT
Louis c. leaCe Breaks Into Geo.
F., OGara'S Lunch Room and
is Gathered In

Between ii and II o'clock Sunday
forenoon a man was discovered in
Geo. O'Gara's luuch room near the
Great Northern station by Mrs. Chas.
Brown who telephoped to Geo. 1.
Dobbs., who in turn investigated and
found the man satisfying his>appetite.
He claimed the proprietor had given
him his keys and told him to go in
and help himself. Mr.. O'Gara arrived
shortly after and denied this story, as
he had his keys in his pocket. The
fellow was taken to the lookup. On
being arraigned Wednesday morning
he did not plead, so Judge Morse de-
cided to send him to the county jail
at st. Cloud to await the action of the
grand jury. This was done today.
The fellow gave his name as Louis G.
Lence is evidently an old hand at
criminal business. He gave the name
of Minneapolis attorney whom he
wished to consult. This name was
given him by one of the Long
Prairie jail breakers when they
were in the locup here, some think.
ing he belongs to the same gang. Mr.
O'Gara says he gave Lence something
to eat on a previous occasion.

J. B. Perkins Came to Sauk
Centre In An Early Day
FORTY TWO YEARS Ago
Has Been in the Drug Business
Nearly All of the Time Since
-. His Arrival

One of the oldest settlers in Sauk
Centre is J. B. Perkins the well
known druggist.
Mr.. Perkins, who had served with
honor/to himself and his country in
the Nineteenth Wisconsin Volunteers
in the Civil War, arrived in Sauk Cen
ire on the first day of June, 1856, and
took up claim. Ten years. later he
embarked in business and with the
exception of two years has been at it
ever since. In conversation with The
Herald relative to his business career
Mr.. Perkins remarked: when L
came here didn't have any money to
go into business with. / took up a
homestead and lived on it until / had
accumulated enough for a starter"
During his residence in Sauk Centre
Mr.. Perkins has seen many changes
The town didn't amount to very much
in those days, and its present appear
ance does not give much OF an inkling
of the looks of things when Mr.. Per-
kinS arrived. ...
Mr.. Perkins started in the drug
business here in 1876. He was located
in the Wannish building that is now
occupied by G. Jensen Oh Third street.
He moved around more or less until
he located in his present place OF
business on Main street. At one
time Mr.. Perkins was in partnership
with C. NJ. Sprague and the firm oc-
cupied the Connolly building on Main
street where the Family Theatre now
holds forth. Later he sold out to Mr.
Sprague. His next location was at
the corner of Main and Third streets
where Hanson g. Emerson now are.
Here he remained ten years. The lot
on Main street where Mr.. Perkins Is
now located he has owned for thirty
years. Ip 1900 he built the brick
structure on it in which his store now
is. Before that a frame building
stood on the lot.
Mr.. Perkins is one of the solid busi-
ness men of the town. His business
methods are such as have brought a
reasonable degree ofsuccess with
them. He is highly respected by his
large circle of friends and acquaintan-
ces. Mr.. Perkins is member of the
local Grand Army Post. He takes an
interest in all things pertaining to
the welfare of the city and is good for
many more years of active business
life.

remains were laid to rest in the Bone
steel cemetery with the impressive
rites of the Woodmen, of which order
Mr.. Barnum was member.
After leaving Sauk Centre Mr.. Bar
mum published paper at Madison,
Neb., for some years. He went to
Bonesteel in 1906 and took charge of
The Pilot, and remained its editor
until its removal to Dallas. He then
moved to Geddes and assumed charge
of The Record at that point, relin-
gushing his duties after few
months on account of i'll health, re-
turning to Bonesteel in the fall of 1908.

STATEMENT BY WARD
May0rdlty Candidate Tells the Public
Where lie Stands in the
Present Contest

To the voters of the city of Sauk
Centre:
Unfortunately Sauk Centre is just
now divided against itself. Two in
terests are contending for the su-
premacy. l come before you as a
mayoralty candidate representing one
of these interests, and l fiatter myself
with the belief that every voter in the
city knows which interest is emblaz-
oned on my banner.
There is mooted question being
asked and / find that it is meet and
proper that answer it at this time
and in this way. l am asked if, in
case am elected, l will change the
chief of police. My answer is that no
change will be made in that office, so
long as the present chief shows enough
desire to keep the place to do the
work as shall require it to be done.
1t is your money and not the mayors
that defrays the cost of the police
service and it is one of his duties to
see that you get your moneys worth.
The present chief of police was first
employed for the city by myself and 1
have not yet had occasion to regret
having done so.
/ have made no promises other than
this; have not been asked to promise
more, nor should / be. I criticise no
administration other than my own
and am asking those who are kindly
aiding me In this contest to work
along the same line. J. w. WARD.

TEMPERANCE TALK
Address by Mrs. Bessie laythe
SCOvel, President of the
w. c. 7. u.

Mrs. Bessie L. Scovel, state presi-
dent of the Minnesota w. c. T. e.,
gave an able and instructive address
in the Norwegian Lutheran church
last Thursday evening Mrs. Scovel
spoke of the prohibition wave in the
southern states, and gave graphic
description of the marvellous changes
for good in the business and social life
of the south. Speaking of the Mime
sofa legislature she emphatically de-
clared it belonged "body, soul and
breeches to the liquor interests, who
bought it before it assembled in st.
Paul" Mrs. Scovel said when she
worked for temperance in the legisla-
ture, she was surprised how the Chris
tian and temperance voters were bun
coed and fooled year by year by the
party in power. When the clergymen
and church members woke up to the
fact that they were being fooled and
disfranchised by the men they voted
for, then Minnesota would soon be in
the dry column. In spite of a liquor
legislature, more towns had gone dry
this year and the sentiment was
stronger against the saloon.
Rev. j. T. B. Smith presided and a
union will be formed at Sauk Centre.
Mrs. Scovel aroused great interest and
several women decided to join the
Union. There was large attendance
Of women and a goodly number OF
men who were much impressed by the
facts and arguments used against the
liquor habit and in favor of temper
ance.
A-silyer Offering was taken for the
temperance work.

SECURES AN INJUNCTION.
Inventor Wins Round in Battle
With Patent Office.

John A. Heany. the York, Pa, inventor.
who was acquitted last December in the
Criminal Court'of charge of conspring
10 doctor the records of the patent office.
has won the first round in the civil pro-
ceedings instituted by him to enjoin Com
missioner of Patents Moore from investi-
eating twelve of Heany's applications
for patents on tungsten" filaments now
pending in the patent office.
Justice Barnard granted a temporary in
junction applied for by Heany against the
commissioner.
The commissioner had started TO ascer-
tain whether the papers in Heany's ap-
pliCationS had been altered and whether
some OF the cases had not been aban-
doned. In the injunction suit Heany al
legged that the commissioner was without
authority or machinery to make the pro-
posed investigation.
Justice Barnard expressly declined to
rule on the merits of the case. but said
he thought the commissioner of patents
should file an answer setting up the
charges of alleged fraud as to Heany's s
applications and that after evidence had
been taken the equity court could pass a
decree that would settle the questions in
controversy. He therefore overruled de-
murrer interposed by the commissioner to
the bill of complaint and granted an in
junction until further order.
