SEAT OF CATHOLIC DIOCESE NOT
TO BE REMOVED.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
The head of the Catholic diocese of
Winona will not be removed from
Winona and the authorities are not
considering any such step. No such
idea has been entertained, despite per-
sistent rumor in Winona and at other
places in the diocese. The positive
denial was made to representative
Of The Winona Independent by BislOp
Hetfron yesterday morning.
Rumor Had Gained Circulation.
The rumor that has gained consid-
cradle headway and in some sections
was taken with more or less cred
encc, was to the effect that Bishop
Heffron contemplated moving his
headquarters to Rochester, in order
to be at more central point in the
diocese. Rochester was the boyhood
home of the prelate.
The groundless report still further
was to the effect that the Episcopal
residence in the extreme West End
had been acquired by purchase by
the Winona seminary and would
be used in connection with that fast
growing educational institution. This
portion of the rumor was also denied
by the bishop.
Catholics Would Have Been Apprised
Bishop Heffron declared that if
any change in the seat of the diocese
had been contemplated the Catholics
of the diocese would have been ap.
prised of it promptly.
The r,lmore had reached so many
of the interested people and Cath.
olics that denial is considered time
ly.

NICOLLET COUNTY MAN is LOST
TO HIS RELATIVES.
From FRIDAYS Daily

From fridays Oaik
st. Peter, August 5.-Sought by his
relatives for nearly twenty years,
Joseph Z. Maer, formerly of Belgrade
township, has at last been declared
dead. Action in the case, and it is a
most unusual one, was taken by the
probate court of Nicollet county lsat
Monday afternoon, with the result that
Maer now has no existence in the eyes
of the law. 1t was taken that there
might be no difficulty in settling the
estate of Peter Maer, father of the
missing man, who died about three
months before his son disappeared
In April, 1888, Joseph i. Maer, then
a student at the Mankato state nor
NAL school, suddenly exhibited desire
to 60 west. Giving up his studies, he
departed, and for a year or more trav-
eled about in the western states. Dur
ing the first year of ms absence he
communicated with his relatives with
comparative regularity, but his last
letter, which was written from small
town in Idaho. came TO them in 1889.
After that all trace of him was lost,
and the most diligent inquiry has fail
ed to reveal his fate.
Thought Mystery Was Solved.
I'm 1899 it was thought the mystery
of his disappearance mad been solved.
A newspaper of that year published
list of killed and wounded in an
engagement in the Philippines, and one
of the names in the list was that of
Joseph Maer. A natural conclusion
was that the young man had enlisted
in the army and had. been killed in
action against the Filipinos. but when
the war department was communicated
with its officials forwarded conclusive
evidence that the dead soldier was not
the missing Belgrade man.
Man Is Declared Dead
Nothing approaching a clue has since
been discovered and very recently Mrs
Catherine Maer, relict of Peter Maer
petitioned the probate court to have
her son declared dead Under the law
!; this may be done after person has
been absent for seven years, and Judge
Mol accordingly entered an order de
claring Maer legally dead. The prin
cipal item of the fathers estate is {
, farm of 240 acres in Belgrade town
ship, valued at fully $4,000. Under
the decree Maer's share of the estate
amounting to $1,000, may be divide,
among the other heirs, five in number

CLAIMS THAT LIND DID NOT SAY

From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
ST. Paul, August Back from Fair

Frank Day has raised hopes in the
democratic breast that John Lind will
accept the nomination for governor.

said, 'that John Lind never stated to
anyone that he would not qualify if
elected He has been notoriously and
UNANIMOUSLY misquoted in the public
press Further Mr.. Day would not
discuss the subject. He would not dis
close the source of his information, or
say whether or not his word is from
John Lind himself
Mr.. Days statement does not change
the democratic program in the least
Lacking John Lind's withdrawal, his
name stands as the candidate. 1t will
be at the head of the ticket until Mr.
Lind returns from Alaska and takes
steps to remove it. Some democrats
still hope that he will not take such
measures. They are determined to
make one final effort to persuade him
to run, and probably will send spe-
cial embassy to Seattle.
Day Is Confident.

nation is positive" but as far as
the public is concerned it is very

it comes from John Lind himself anc

CITY ENGINEER WILSON MAKES
SOME ESTIMATES.
From thursdays Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
City Engineer Wilson has done some
figuring on the cost of sinking the
Mccarthy well to a depth of $50
feet, and of digging a new well $50
feet deep. The cost of putting down
a new well near the present Mccarthy
well is estimated at S2.40O. and with
the Mccarthy well lowered tine water
supply of the city would be increased
by 600 gallons minute.
The cost of putting down $50 foot
well in the city's park in the center
of block Is. with the placing of a
suction main to the pumping station
is estimated at $4,000, and the floS;
of water. with the MCCARTHY well
lowered. would be increased 99O gal
gons a minute.
The cost of sinking 800 foot well
at the fire station would be about
$4,000, with the suction main, and the
increase in the flow of water from thi;
and sinking the Mccarthy well woult
be l,OO5 gallons minute.
If the city put down $50 foot
well at the corner of Second and Wash
ington streets the cost would be about
$4,000, and the flow of water. including
the additional flow from the Mccarthy
well, if lowered, would be $50 NOR,
than now.
The estimated cost of sinking th'
Mccarthy well to the $50 foot leye
is $1,000. which should be added t.
all Of the above figures.
Considering the additional flow o
water expected by getting as ia
away as possible from the presen
city wells, SO as not to draw from
them more than necessary, the well
that would be most expensive to di
and connect up with the pumpin
plant would be the cheapest in tn
ong run.
