Mankato, Mimi, Oct. 28
The Mankato schools were to.

state aid by the state high
school beard, following action
by the Mankato school board

year at the opening of each
school day there was Bible
reading and singing of a hymn
which has been held contrary
to the state constitution $ pro-
hibition against use of the
schools for teaching. The high

amounting about 5000 a

ALLEGED BOOTLEGGED
in TOLLS o FTHE LAW

Raymond Bruce, of the Am
erican restaurant, located on
Blanche street, this city, will
be made to appear tomorrow
before Justice Stoddard upon
information filed by States At
tcrney Waldron and Sheriff
Smith to answer to the charge
of having illegally sold intox
icating liquors in the city. His
bond has been fixed at 5000.
Bruce will in all probability
plead guilty.
In spite of the fact that ex-
ample was made of bootleg
gers at the last term of court,
States Attorney Waldron,
Sheriff Smith and his depu-
ties have kept close watch
in order that the state prohibi-
ton laws are observed. The
last instance is the one which
has been under surveillance
for some time by the officials
and will in all probability
further exemplify the fact that
a close watch is constantly
kept upon all violators of the
law.
If reports are true, it will
not be long before several 9th
er violators will be made to
appear to answer to similar
charges made by the officials
who are not unmindful of their
official duties.
Tom White. the chef who
was at his work at the time the
officers entered. thinking that
he was about to be placed in
custody, made a hasty exit by
way of the rear door. He did
not stop until he was in Yates,
where, after imbibing freely of
spirit frumenti, is said to
have made the boast that he
was the one who sold the liq
uors. 1t is quite unlikely,
however, that he really did act
as salesman. If he had, it is
quite likely that he also would
have been called to answer to
a charge.

The Sara Ruth Bates Co.
that entertained at the opera
house on Saturday evening
rendered a very pleasing en-

vocal and instrumental, was
worthy of special comment.
Miss Bates rendered several
very interesting readings,
chief of which was a sketch,
The Silent System.
Among the musicians, Miss
Curtis, violinist, clearly dem
onstrated that she is an artist.
Her rendering of the Russian
lullaby and La Polonaise were
especially well received. MIR.
Barbour's baritone voice,
which is a near approach to a
tentor, was worthy of com
ment.

German Road
Open to Const,
junction Found With Bulgari-
an Army in Northeastern
Serbia and Shipment of Mu-
nitions to Start Soon.

London, Oct. 28.-The Ger
man army which crossed the
Danube at Orozva has joined
hands with the Bulgarians,
who invaded Serbia near Pra-
hovo, and the central powers
now have an open road
through northeastern Serbia
and Bulgaria to the Aegean
sea and Constantinople. They
are thus in a position to send
guns and munitions by river
end railway to their Bulgarian
and Turkish allies, who will
be greatly strengthened there
by.
The invasion of the northern
portions of Serbia by the Aus
tro-Germans continues while
Bulgaria is putting forth a
strong effort to secure control
of additional sections of the
Belgrade-Saloniki railway.
So far as the north is con-
cerned, Serbia, it is feared by
her allies, is doomed, but in
the south, reinforced by the
British and French who are
now fighting by her side, Ser
bia is using all of her strength
to throw the Bulgarians back.
After the French victory at
Kirovolak. the Serbians, ac-
cording to the Athens report,
were able to reoccupy Veles,
an important railway and road
junction just south Of Uskup,
where a big battle is still in
progress.
1t is argued here that if the
Eulgarians can be held in the
south until Anglc-French rein
lorcements, which are now on
the way, arrive, Bulgaria may
yet be robbed of Macedonia,
on which she has set her heart.
But the allies will also have to
attempt to block the German
road to Turkey and their big
attack may be directed else
where.

During the week work was
started on the installation of
a new boiler and generator for
the local electric light plant.
The new boiler will be of two

electric service will be afford
ed at the specified time, Dec
ember first. The first service
will in all probability be af-
forded by November IS.
The advent of electric serv-
ice to Sentinel Butte will be re-

School Teachers
Capture Medora
Town Capitulated Without Res
istance, and Citizens Enter
tain 'Marms' Right Royalty.

A bevy Of school marin"
from the Beach schools, to the
number of ten, descended up
on Medora Saturday morning,
capturing the town and all
therein contained at one fell
swoop. Realizing the futility
of resistance, the town gallant
ly capitulated, swung wide its
doors and a royal entertain
ment for which the old cow
town" is famous, followed.
Automobiles were furnished
by hospitable citizens, and an
expedition of exploration fol-
lowed to the country tributary
to the historic village.
The burning coal mine was
one of the interesting places,
The cavernous depths of the
Nichols coal mine, with the
genial Nels himself as guide,
was explored. The Custer
Trail ranch, rich in legendary
lore of the days when the re-
doubtable T. R. held forth,
and which housed many a dis
tinctive gathering from earth 5
remote corners, when punch
ers crooked elbows with
dukes and slept under the
same blankets under starry
skies as they took turns at
night-herding the restive kline,
furnished not a few thrills.
In those days the old cow
town housed a motley throng.
1t was the hunting mecca OF
the rich, nobility from abroad,
and romantic naturesa.l gener-
al who found there a retreat
from the restraint of quiet
places-or from the grasping
tentacles of an outraged law.
Some of the latter cjtizenry
gazing with envious eyes upon
his neighbor S cattle, sought,
under cover of night, to in
crease their personal fortunes
by the simple mathematical
process of subtraction, a pro-
ceeding frowned upon and dis
couraged by a mysterious COM
mittee noted for the quietude,
sureness and dispatch with
which it performed its duty.
In such cases. the morning
sun often shone upon quiet
figure suspended at length
from convenient tree-limb,
while the wind softly hummed
a last requiem to the departed
through the leafy boughs. In
those days, the law was not
confined to books.
With Miss Verachik as
e' de, the party visited the
" "quis DeMores mansion,
where they were guests of
Judge and Mrs. Foley, old pio
neers of the town. The Judge
has been caretaker of the De
Mores estate for many years,
and though the house is never
the scene of jollity and merri-
ment as in the old days, and
though in all probability the
family never again will occupy
it as a home, its equipage has
1een kept for years intact as
on the day they went away.
Except for the many remind
ers Of a period long past, the
visitor imagines that the fami-
ly are but temporarily absent,
and may be back at any NOM
ent.
An appetizing dinner was
partaken at the old Rough Rid
ers hotel, where George Card

es entertainment Of a substan-
tial nature with as clever al
hand as when he ropes and
rides recalcitrant bronc.

Attracts MANY
Locals Defeat Wibaux Team
on Local Alleys by Narrow
Margin. -League to be
Formed.

OnG OF the most eXClClng
bowling tournaments ever
staged in this section took
place on the Baller alleys on
Sunday aftrnoon when the
Wibaux team, winners in the
first encounter, were defeated
by the Beach team by the mar
row margin of four pins. The
winning of the first game by
the locals by the margin of 79
pins materially aided the Beach
aggregation in ekeing out a
final victory. In the games
that followed, the Wibaux
bunch led the locals by a mar
gin of fifty and Is pins res
pectively. Harry Smith led
the locals in the total number
of pins, securing 5l2 pins in
the three games. Jones for
Wibaux led the visitors, secur-
ing a total of sos pins. The
highest individual score dur
= ing the matinee was made by
Smith, who scored 1874 pins.
He was closely followed by
Jones, whose highest score
was l87.
1t is planned to hold a three
team tournament at the Wi
5-baux alleys next Sunday when
the locals will meet both the
Glendive and Wibaux teams.
Following the tournament on
Sunday, plans will be suggest
ed for the formation of a
league which will include the
Sidney and Dickinson teams.
At the close of the season a
team of five of the best bowl
ers of the league will be chos-
en- to take part in a state meet
which will be held at Billings,

Down Mississippi and Up Atlantic
Coast-HeaIth Trip of N. Y. Brokers

j. G.. Hurry and Charles Marcel
New York brokers, have desert.
ed their Wall street offices and
forgotten all business cares and
are making a 0,0O0-mile canoe
trip on which they expect to gaia
health.
The. brokers, after leaving
New York several weeks ago, are
on the Great Lakes, making their
way to the Mississippi river.
They will float to the Gulf of
Mexico, then go up the Atlantic
coast to New York.
The men will live outdoors all
the time, they say, sleep in a
tent at night. They say they will
not spend a single night in no.
tel or under the roof of farm
house. They will not hurry, as
they are not trying to break any
records, but on some days expect
to cover 65 miles. They will let
the trip extend over a period of
about one year.
The main food of these city
men who are seeking health In
the great outdoors is cornmeal,
oatmeal and pork.
Before starting they learned
something about cooking and
baking. They prepare their own
meals and bake their own bread.
They use the gravy of salt pork
as butter for their bread. When
they are near farm houses they
will secure eggs and fresh foods.
Besides their desire for health
Marcel and Hurry want to lem
onstrate, for the benefit of 9TH
ers, that long canoe trip can
be made without great expense
They say many young men, on
water trips, spend too much.
These men expect their expenses
TO be never more than 81 a day
and sometimes as low as % cents
. day.

the two reform" aldermen from
the silk-stocking wards of the
south side.
Mann became attorney for the
South Park board of Chicago In
'95 and then by machine nomina-
ton was promoted to congress 16
years ago. He has served contin-
uously since then.
Mann was a supporter of Can
non during the latter's long reign.
On the other hand, there are
spots In Mann's record that make
him appear almost like a LoFol-
lette. He has taken up certain
reform legislation, such as the
pure food and drug law and the
statute now on the books is large
~ result of Wiley, thing which
will always be vastly to his credit.
He is the author of the white
slave law, well-intended meas
pre- which produces some good.
though it has also been ready
instrument for the blackmailer.
He aided in the creation of the
department of commerce and la
Dor under the vigorous spur of
Roosevelt.
These are his principal achieve
ments. None is so radical as to
ALLEVIATE the affection of those
bosses who want to nominate
Root.
Neither are they so radical as
to attract the following of Victor
Murdoch and his group.

the searching bosses gets on the
man from Illinois there is no tell

m * n III ALL He HOPES TO DO IS EDGE IN; HE'S
w - III ~ Deemed MODEL G. q. p. THIRD CHOICE!

On the theory that in politics
all things are possible, James r.
Mann of Illinois is republican
presidential possibility.
He is in that large class which
follows Root and Burton - the
dark horse class. There will be
a flock of dark horses at the next
republican convention-perhaps
IT would be better to say there
will be a herd of dark horses.
Mann may not be Illinois fa-
vorite son, but Ed Simms, in the
Marquette building, Chicago, is
carrying on an active little cam
paign to get the delegation from
the sucker state. He is looking
for delegates also from some sur
rounding states, like Indiana,
Michigan, Kansas, Minnesota and
the Dakotas.
The Mann candidacy is not
blowing any loud trumpets or
welding any big bludgeons.
Manager Simms is frankly
willing to edge in as a second
third or fourth choice.
He simply wants to be on
hand to be useful In case he
is needed.
AS consequence Mann is not
one of the multitudinous herd of
p-r-e-s-i-d-e-n-t-i-a-l p-o-s-s-i-b-i-l-
titles which has toured Tacoma
and other western cities. Not yet,
at least.
Simms foresees an open game
at the convention; no candidate
with enough at the start to win,
and much trading necessary to get
a majority of delegates.
