Couldn't Find Daughter.
When they got to ST. Peter, to add
to their suspicious and intensity
their suspense, they were unable to
find their daughter. No one had
seen her, and they feared that the
"wOist had happened" Determined
to be in at the finish, however, Mr..
Wilfert hired speedy automobile
and went to Kasota. There he was
informed that girl looking like the
description that he gave of his
daughter had boarded the afternoon
Milwaukee passenger train that was
coming towards MankatO.
Mr.. Wilfert then felt sure that he
was on the right trail, and had the
chauffeur open the throttle and push
the car on as rapidly as possible

insurrectos there. Then he learned
that it takes woman after all to

Mother Located Daughter.
Mrs. Wilfert had succeeded in To-
eating her daughter. She was in an
alley or by-street and the situation
looked like an elopement nipped in
the bud, before the young Lochinvar
could get his steed to the place, or
perhaps Papa Wilfert had cornered
the automobile market.
Mr.. Wilfert started at once for st
Peter, after thanking the officers and
dectives copiously. He was well
pleased that the elopement had not
occurred.
Everett is twenty-one years cd,

love will demonstrate again that it

for building the addition to the Ho-

floor of the basement of the new
part and it has been necessary to
dig the dirt partly out from under
the footing and extend the wall
lower with concrete. The soil is
sandy, and before the proper braces
could be put in a portion of the
foundation and brick wall of the ho-
tel, on about the middle of the north
side, caved into the new excavation.
After removing the mass of stone
and brick, the soil was excavated so
as to start the new concrete wall.
The workmen had gotten down about
a foot lower than the bottom of the
wall when they encountered the
bones of man. Most of the bones
crumbled up into dust, but part of
the jaw, with the teeth attached,
was recovered intact, and some
other small pieces of the bone

Well-known Man Passed Away at
Hospital in st. James.

Hospital in St. James.
After an illness of several weeks.
Robert Rowland, one of the best
known men in this county, died at
the st. James hospital last Tuesday
of complication of diseases, says
The ST. James Plaindealer. The
funeral services in charge of his old
pastor, Rev. l.. e. Viets, were held
at ten O'Clock Friday morning from
the Baptist church and the remains
were taken on the noon train to
Lake Crystal to be laid beside those
of his wife. A large number OF
friends attended the service.
Robert Rowland was born in
Oneida county, New York, January
20, 1S43. He grew to manhood in
that state and when twenty years OF
age enlisted in the army in July,
1868. He served continuously until
July, 1866, when he was honorably
discharged. He was in a number of
important engagements. Soon after
the war he came west and resided
.
In 1867 he was married to Miss
Clara Finno at Mankato. They re-
sided on farm at Judson until 1872,
when they came to WatOnwan county.
For number of years they lived Oh
the farm, until about fifteen years
ago when they moved to st. James
Mr. Rowland was a good financier
and accumulated a competence. For
many years he followed the business
of auctioneer and as such he was
known by almost every man in the
country. Five children were born to
them, all of whom are living. They
are as follows. e. n. Rowland of
st. James; Mrs. Charles Cunningham
of Redwood Falls; Mrs. Mabel
Crouch Of Bemidji; Mrs. Henry Fam
slow of Los Angeles, CAL; and Mrs
Charles Rold of Twin Falls, Idaho
He also leaves five sisters, Mrs. Car
roll of Bowling Green, KY; Mrs.
Sadie Boyle and Mrs. Mary Jones,
both of Rome, New York; Mrs.
Thomas of Garden City; and Mrs. w.
J. Jones of Lake Crystal. There is
also one brother, John Rowland, of
Rome, N. Y.
His wife died four years ago, and
since then he has made his home
with his son in this city.
When young man Mr.. Rowland
was converted and joined the Baptist
church and during all his life he re-
manned faithful member of that
church. He was a member of the

also prominent Mason

and announced that it would enter
tain no proposition based on kilo-
watt measurement. Mr.. Henline, in
announcing the councils determine
ton, said that If the company wished
to make proposition based on the
million gallons actually pumped, all
right, otherwise the matter might
as well be dropped.
Made Another Offer.
Mr.. Callahan then made another
Offer to the effect that the city
install pumps and motors and the
company would furnish power for
sixty days, and that each would Sc.
lect an engineer and that there be
third appointed, and that the kilo-
watt hours be figured up during this
time and that the compensation be
based upon the report of these three
men, the cost, however, not to ex-
coed 1881 per million gallons
pumped.
1t was again brought out by the
councilmen that aside from this the
city would have to bear a number
of the expenses that it does now.
The proposition was not satisfac-
tory to the councilmen, as the kilo-
watt still figured in it, and Mr.. Hen
line said that they did not want
anything to do with the kilowatt
kilowatt Merely Measure.
The Consumers Power company
representatives maintained that the
kilowatt is merely a measure, and
represents one and a half horse
power. and is used everywhere, even
in Minneapolis. They suggested that
the city ought to have the advice Of
some competent engineer in the mat
ter, as to the advisability of pumping
the water by electricity.
Mr.. Henline replied that. the city
had had the advice of such an en-
gineer, a Mr.. Marshall of Minneapo-
lis, who came to the city, and that
he had advised the council not to go
by the kilowatt measurement.
The conference broke up without
result, the city refusing to consider
the proposition. 1t seemed to be the
belief Of the commissioners that it
would prove considerable more eX-
pensive to pump the water by cleo
tricity, as the present plant would
have to be held in reserve. If the
engineers were discharged, and the
city plant had to be brought into
use, Mr.. Henline said that it would
be difficult to find a competent en-
gineer on a moments notice, as well
as expensive.
The number OF gallons of water
actually pumped last year was 264,-
100000, it was stated. #l"
Official Printing for Year.
After the pumping matter was
disposed of, the council voted to adj
vertise for bids for doing the Off
cial city printing during the coming
year, the bids to be opened May Is.
Charles Mericle appeared and said
that it was a question whether there
was no street or two streets where
Blue Earth street is supposed to be.
He would like to find out where the
street is, as he had moved his fence
once, and wanted to move it again
and put it in the right place.
The matter was referred to Com
missioner Humiston and City Engi-
ueer Blomquist.

Everybody at the police station
was on the alert last evening over a
supposed elopement, but later devel-
opments showed that the little coup

been sprung yet, and perhaps there
was no intention to spring it.

and that from what he could gather

Huillier, at one o'clock Sunday
morning. Had it not been for the
quick work of Mr.. Burrill, four cows
and number OF hogs would have
been roasted to death by the flames.
Origin of Fire Mystery.
The origin Of the fire is a mystery
Mr.. Burrill visited the barn at
eleven o'clock at night and found
everything all right. At 1890 o'clock
Peter Hanson passed by the Bur
rill home and there were no indi-
cations of fire in the neighbOr-
hood at that hour.
About one o'clock Mr.. Burrill was
awakened by an unusual noise made
by his horses. He hastily arose
from bed and looking out of win
dow, discovered his barn to be on
fire. Without stopping to dress, Mr..
Burrll fastened to the burning
building, which by this time was a
mass of flames and it would have
been suicidal for any one to have
attempted to enter what was then
a fiery furnace.
Turned Cows Out.
Mr.. Burrill returned to the house,
quickly dressed himself and it was
then that he thought of the cows
that were in the basement of the
barn. He succeeded in driving the
COWS out before any harm had
reached them, although the fire had
eaten it's way through the floor and
burning boards were dropping to the
basement below. A number of hogs
were driven to place of safety
also.
BY this time an alarm had been
sounded by Miss Nina Chinoweth.

and neighbOrs organized bucket

the fire from spreading to the house,

Total Loss Is $4,000.
Mr.. Burrill stated today that aside
from the horses, fifteen ton of hay,
$500 worth of feed, four sets of har-
ness, two single harness and a lot
of other property was destroyed.
The total loss will reach $4,000, with
$1,250 insurance. He carried $500
