episode, discovered a slit about two
inches long in the back of the gar
ment near the belt line. 1t is a
clean cut and could only have been
done by very sharp blade. Ernest
is sure that the cut was not there
before the encounter.
Moon was brought up in munich
pal court yesterday afternoon and
waived examination. He was bound
over to the grand jury and his
case will come up in the November
term of the district court. He has
engaged the firm of Pau & Laurisch
as his attorneys and is held without
bail in the custody of Sheriff Anton
Osten
Thomas Moon still persists in say
ing that young Sorell started the
whole affair and that he used the
razor only in self defense. In an
interview with him this afternoon
he told The Free Press that Sorell
had been following him all over
town, to every saloon that he had
entered and used every opportunity
of calling him names and insulting
him in every way he could think Of.

Sorell, according to Moons story,
got him up in a corner between the
lunch counter and the wall and
threatened to knock his face right
off of him." Moon struggled to get
away, saying, Let me go, you are
doing me a great injury and l have
done you no harm" When Sorell
started to choke him Moon repeats
that he took the razor out Of his
pocket and told him to let go, and
when Sorell refused he struck him
with the blade. Moon says that he
didn't even know Sorell During the
conversation between Moon the re-
porter this afternoon one of the
other inmates of the Jail said that
he was beginning to believe that
Moon was telling the truth for he
had told the same story in the same
way to every one of the prisoners
at least dozen times. However,
this seems a little incongruous as
none of the bystanders saw any
struggle or heard any loud talking.

LETTER STIRRED UP
SEVERAL CANDIDA TIES

st. Paul Dispatch: Practically
every candidate on the republican
state ticket has received a letter
from the Mankato Lincoln club ask
ing him to declare openly for Presi-
dent Taft or lose the clubs support.
Governor Eberhart said today he
has not as yet received a letter from
the club, some of the members of
which are his closest friends. One of
them is S. B. Wilson, who until re-
Gently was one of his personal rep
resentatives on the republican state
central committee.
Only the corrupt practices act, said
Governor Eberhart, prevented him
from becoming a member of the
club. He said that the attorney
general has ruled he cannot join.
Some of the candidates on the
state ticket are indignant that the
Mankato club, composed of the chief
executives friends, should try to
make them declare openly for Taft
when most of them are trying to
bury the ISSUE Governor Eberhart
came out openly for Taft today when
told of the letter, and in explana-

BOY HAS HIS TROUBLES
From TUESDAYS Daily

From TUESDAYS Daily
Little Archie Wirig of Madison
Lake is having more than his share
of accidents this summer Late in
July he was injured in a collision be-
tween George Scherers automobile
and James Gilbrides motorcycle in
Madison Lake. He was riding on the
basket of the motorcycle when the
two machines collided and had his
right leg broken. The leg was set
at that time, and without doubt was
set properly, but later it seemed to
become displaced.
1t did not seem to heal as it
should and last Thursday the boys
father H. G. Wirig, brought him to
a Mankato physician, who decided
that it would be advisable to take
him to the hospital little later But
on Friday evening when walking,
his crutch slipped and the little fell
low put his weight upon the injured
leg, breaking the bone again He
was then brought to the hospital,
where he is getting along nicely.
This afternoon he seemed to be
having a pleasant time and said that
he had lots of callers and that his
friends were keeping him supplied
with things to amuse himself with.
The little boy is about eight years
old

Ernest Sorell, the man who so
narrowly escaped death from an as.
sault by Thomas Moon, armed in
true African style with a keen
edged razor, in cts Place" Saturday
night, is getting along as well or
better than could be expected con.
sidering the "close shave" that Moon
gave him.
A Free Press man called on Sor-
ell last evening at the Emmanuel hos
pital and found him in the best of
spirits. He did not seem to cherish
any hard feelings against Moon; in
fact, he is a great deal more inter
ested in getting out of bed and out
in the air again than he is in prose
cutting Moon. Sorell, in describing
the assault, says that Moon struck
him from behind and there was no
scuffling at all before Moon struck
him and that he was taken entirely
unawares. He had walked down the
bar toward the lunch counter, in
tending to get a sandwich before
going home and Moon accosted him
in a low tone of voice and asked

thrown one drink that Sorell had
bought him, on the floor, he did not
feel under any obligation at all to
give Moon a chance to do the same
thing over again. Accordingly he
walked around the end of the lunch
counter, saying as he did so, "Keel
away from me, Moon; you're drunk.
Your breath is enough to kill a
man." Then as he was passing
through the door from the bar to
the stock room, he saw the flash of
steel and felt the warm blood gush
down his face. Mr.. Sorell says that
Moon must have been behind him
because there was not room enough
between the lunch counter and the
wall of the stock room to allow two
men to pass.
Another incident that proves that
Moon was behind him developed yes
terday morning when it was found
that Mrs. Leo F. Sorell mother of

her son had worn in the shaving

FIRE AND BOLD THIEVES
INVADED Lake CRYSTAL

From Tuesdays Daily.
1T never rains but it pours" wal
once more proved to be true in Lake
Crystal last night, when a burglar!
and a fire occurred. Some time be
tween midnight and seven o'clocl
this morning the drug store owned
and managed by William Deutscl
was entered and robbed. Earlier il
the evening fire was discovered il
James Brothers hardware and fur
niture store.
Mr.. Deutsch and William Burns o
Mankato were in the drug store un
til about midnight last night. Mr.
Burns is a band director and haC
conducted band practice in Lake
Crystal last night. He went to Tho
store with Mr. Deutsch after he con
Guided his work with the musical or
ganization and the two men remain
ed in the store a short time WheI
they departed Mr. Burns left hi:
grip in the show window at the
front of the store, expecting to ge
it this morning.
The burglars evidently gained en-
trance by way of a skylight window
on the roof. They borrowed &
clothesline from the White Swan res
taurant, which is conducted by Nor
ris Flattery. From all clues which
were left there were two men who
did the deed. The cash register was
robbed of $40 and Mr. Burns valise
was opened and the contents scat
tered about the store, but the burg
lars must not have had Their
musical instincts properly developed
for they did not take with them any
of the contents of the valise.
Then, too, they must have been
healthy, because every bottle OF
Lydia Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and every bottle of Wards
liniment remained on the shelves
Not even a bottle of Electric Bit
ters was taken. And Lake Crystal is
a dry town, too.
. The exit was made through the
rear door. The robbery was discov,
cred this morning when Mr.. Deutsch
entered the store.
Young Man Discovered Fire.
John Roberts, one of Lake Crys
tails popular young men, discovered
smoke coming from James Brothers
store about 8:15 p. m. He went
into the store and told Charles
James, one of the proprietors, that
there was smoke coming from the
building. They looked around and
discovered several rugs in a room
off the main store room, to be on
fire. An electric drop light hung
between the rugs and the confiagra.
ton started from that There were
about thirty rugs hanging from the
ceiling and six of them were burn
ed. Mr.. James and Mr.. Roberts form
ed private bucket brigade and ex-
tinguished the fire in a short time,
not calling upon the fire department
for help.
The loss on the rugs was about
$500, covered by insurance, but
there was on damage to the build
ing. The discovery of the fire so
soon was very fortunate thing,
as the entire block would no doubt
have been wiped out if the building
itself had caught fire.

WAS At THE ELECTRIC
SHOW IN windy CITY
From Tuesdays Daily.

From Tuesdays Daily.
H. E. Hance, general manager Of
the Mankato Electric Traction COM
pany, who returned Saturday night
from the annual meeting Of the
American Electric Railway associa-
ton, held at Chicago, gave an in
teresting account of the convention
to The Free Press this morning.
The convention was III session
from Monday until Friday afternoon,
and the program consisted OF num-
Der of papers and discussions rela-
tive to the management and opera
ton of street railways. The largest
registration of delegates on any day
was about $500, men who came rom
all over this country Besides the
official delegates there were repre-
sentatives from companies in Eu-
rope and many from Canada. There
were also about 1000 people repre-
senting railway equipment concerns
present. The meetings were held in
the stock yard pavilion.
Display of Equipment.
The displays of equipment and APP
pliances for street railways was bet
ter than in any previous year There
were not so many entirely new
things shown, but there were many
improvements in uipment--equip-
ment to tend toward efficiency and
economy in operation of systems.
The McGuire-Cummins company,
whose equipment is used in the
Mankato railway system, had a large
exhibit there, which Mr.. Hance was
especially interested in. Walter and
John Cummins, who took over this
system about a year ago, are men,
bers of this firm. One of their dis
plays was a new interurban car,
called the Alice Chalmers" 1t is
forty-eight feet long and was sent
to South Bend. Ind, after the con-
vention to go into service there inn
mediately.
New Style of Car.
This company is also making a
new style of car called the near
side, one-man car system" This car
is the same width as the old mod
els, but is longer. It is reversible
one and has an extra long vestibuIe
to allow passengers to get on and
others to get off at the same time.
1t is a car which is recommended
for use in smaller systems where
it is necessary to keep the number
of men employed as small as possi-
BILE.
The Cummins company has had
an unusually successful season and
have run their shops at Paris, H.,
at their full capacity all year.
Mr.. Hance stated this morning
that he has now attended four of
these national conventions, and that
the one held in Chicago last week
had more comprehensive and in
structive exhibits than any of the
other three.
