SILK WAIST is STOLEN
THIEF MAKES AWAY WITH GAR.
MENT FROM THE FAIR STORE.
Futile Chase Into Saloon; Mr.. Blum
Finally Decided Not to Get Out
Warrant

Early this afternoon sneak thief
robbed 7. Bum's Fair Store of a Ia
dies black silk waist, valued at S..
The waist was in box ON counter
near the front of the store, and Mr..
Blum and the clerks were busy wait
ing upon customers well toward the
rear of the store. Mr.. Blum was the
nearest, being at the cash register,
when young man entered the front
door and seized the waist and put it
under his coat and quickly darted
out of the door. Mr.. Blum took in
the proceeding, although thirty feet
away, and dashed out of the store
after the man.
The thief ran across Walnut street
and into the first saloon and there
Mr.. Blum overlook him and said that
he wished a moments conversation.
The man excused himself and went in
to the closet, and Mr.. Blum went over
to the police station and got Off
ced Edwards. Mr. Blum had no SOON
er gone than the man tok his depar-
ture by the back door of the saloon.
Officer Edwards was son upon the
scene and found man answering the
description of the thief, and took
him to the police station. This man
was found near the alley book. of the
saloon, and is stranger, and said
that he came to Mankato two days
ago with another man and that they
make a business of repairing cisterns.
He would give very little account of
himself or his movements. He denied
any knowledge of what he was charg-
ed with. Mr.. Blum was not positive
of his identification, but said that
he answered the general description of
the man. -
The man was searched and did not
have the waist upon his person. and
if he is the right party it is sup
posed that he concealed the garment
after leaving the saloon. The bar
tender stated that the man in custody
was not the one that Mr.. Blum fol-
lowed into the saloon. One of the
four was asleep in the rear of the sa-
loon this afternoon while the chase
was in progress.
Mr.. Blum finally decided not to get
out warrant. SC

WILL HIT THE PATH. 0LD, WEAK. ANDs|L
SAD CONDITION OF DANIEL s
MULLEN, A TINKER.
Along in Years, He Still Travels About
the Country, But the Storm Over
took Him, and Now He Is Sick;
Being Cared For at the City Hall;
Chills and Fever Set In.

Daniel S. Mullen, an itinerant tinker
from Freeport, H., is occupying a cot
at the city hall, suffering from illness
and exposure. He is sixty seven years
old. and states that for seven years
past he has been accustomed to work
north in summer and south in winter,
following the railroad tracks, mending
whatever is broken on the farms and
in the small villages, and living mostly
in the open. He carries a heavy grip
filled with tools.
Overcome BY the Storm.
Mullen states that he started re-
Gently from Pennington to work his
way to Wells, and thence to Lacrosse,
Wis. and on south to New Orleans.
La. When he reached Montgomery he
was taken sick, and spent most of the
$40 that he had saved. Getting bet
ter, he started out, again, and when he
reached the LeSueur river in Rapidan,
opposite the Gardner Darr farm, he
was caught by the storm Friday night,
and remained there until yesterday
morning. He built fire from rail
way ties, and got in position pro-
tected by the mountains as he called
the high hills there. He got wet, new
ertheless, and in trying to dry his
clothes burned them so badly that
they fell apart, but neighbors supplied
him with other clothing yesterday, and
the train men brought him to Man
kato. and he was cared for at the city
hall last night and today. Health Off
Ger Dahl prescribed for him this morn
ing.
Mullen is very weak and complains
of severe pain in his stomach He has
had severe chills and is thought to
be suffering from chills and ague He
had a good lunch with him when the
storm struck him, but ate the last of
it yesterday morning. He states that
he has a brother who is railway
conductor running between Montevideo,
Mimi, and Aberdeen, s. ID. Unless he
improves, he will probably be taken
to the hospital and turned over to the
county physician. Las
In conversation with a Free Press re-
porter, Mullen stated that he walks
from ten to twenty miles. a day, and
follows the railway tracks, because
the walking is better there and he
cannot get lost. He can do any kind
of repairing, and has made as high
as $l2 in day in a village. He has
been held up several times by tramps.
He is getting too old to, travel on
foot, and is, thinking of purchasing a
small gasoline launch TO. ply on the
Mississippi river, making one side of
the river on the way up and the other
side on the way down. He was never
married, he said, and, has no home,
but has several relatives. He is quite
an interesting talker, but is very weak
and emaciated, and looks as though
his days were numbered

COMEACROSSWITHC CASH
YOU CAN ASSIST THE MANKATO
LADIES' RELIEF SOCIETY.
Street Cars Will Be in Charge of Mem
bers of that Organization All
of Tomorrow.

The Mankato Traction company will
for tomorrow, change its name to
"Mankato Attraction Company" owing
to the fact that the ladies are to
act in the official capacity of fare
collectors. The old schedule of running
and the Pleasant street cars will,
as formerly, run from Willard to
Cherry streets.
The story is this. The Relief society
is greatly in need of funds. The Man
kato Traction Company has made the
very generous proposal to give the
society tomorrow the entire proceeds
above the actual running expenses and
it remains for the public to do the
rest. This means that everyone should
patronize the cars most literally. No.
one is expected to take any extended
walks or strolls for their health,
when matter of such vital impor-
lance is at stake as the raising of
funds for the relief society. If you
cannot personally patrOnize the ears
send the society donation, and Sc
express your cooperation and interest
in the cause of sweet charity 1t
will be more acceptable tomorrow
than later as the ladies are anxious
to see results for their labors, which
begin with the running of the first
car at o'clock a. m. and will not
close until long after the ringing Of
the curfew.

GOVERNOR OF MISSOURI is TO
GET TO STATES HEART.
Chief Executive Hadley to Penetrate
Part of His Commonwealth
Where the Natives Do Not Know
That the War Is Over; Ozark
Mountain District; Pretty and
Picturesque Country.

st. Louis, Oct. ll.-Governor Hadley,
the republican chief executive of the
showm me state, is to enter the ranks
of the explorers. Fired by the daring
deeds of the great White King of
Africa and the exploits OF the polers,
he has determined to go and do like
wise. The state board of immigra-
ton has taken charge of the COVER
nor's tour of exploration and today
will give luncheon in his honor. At
ter the feed, the governor will board
train for Salem, Mo-, there to set
forth on the grand adventure.
Darkest Missouri will be invaded by
the daring governor. The toughest
and most unfrequcnted part of the
Ozark country is his goal. There ne
will meet people who have never seen
a railroad train and who do not know
that the Civil war is over.
In Heart of the Ozarks.
Salem is in the heart of the Ozarks
The governor will there find himself
in the middle of a vast region, ll,O00,-
600 acres of which remain without a
foot of ground ever having been
touched by a pillow.
This uncultivated region lies most
ly on either bank of the Current river
and runs through the counties of
Texas, Shannon, Carter and Ripley
into Arkansas. For almost the en-
tire course of the Current river there
is not a settlement on either bank
that is within 65 miles of railroad
Two branches of the Frisco and the
Iron Mountain Railroad lines are the
only tracks that come in the vast dis
trict.
There will be a mass meeting at
Salem when the governor reaches that
city, and there will be speeches by
the governor and by prominent men
of the nation and state. From Salem
Governor Hadley will move on to
Montauk Point by carriage
Will Have Four Days Cruise.
From Montauk Point, where the
Current River joins the Montauk riv-
er, the governor and party will take
to fiat boats for four days cruise
The city of Salem will furnish guides
for the trip and committee will GO
ahead of the main party to advise the
settlements along the way of the visit
of the States chief executive. We'll
comes will be arranged for the gov
ernor at every point.
The region through which the gov
ernor will travel is one of the least
known, and at the same time one of
the most picturesque in the world. 1t
has hills and valleys and mountains
and plains and fertile tracts of land
that stretch for miles, but that never
have given up any of their wealth be-
cause no one has ever sought it.
The region is wild. But even from
the viewpoint of sportsmen it has
been neglected up to the present time
In its streams are to be found the
finest game fish to be caught any,
where. And on the lands are still
brown bear and deer, mink and tile
fox. The streams are filled with rain
bow trout, bass and crappie.
