LatterEvidentIy Tryingto Work
Charles Durham, St. Peter,
For Reward
from Saturdays Daily.

Charles Durham of st. Peter, ar
irving in this city at about five o'clock
this morning on his way home from
Texas, happened to leave his suit
case in the mems waiting room at
the Northwestern passenger station
for a few minutes, while he strolled
down to look at the work on the new
bridge. On his return, he discovered
that it had been taken.
The ticket agent and the police
were informed. A stranger stepped up
to Mr.. Dunham and said, 81 know
where your suitcase is" This man led
the way to the Saulpaugh hotel, but
when the two got there he began to
talk in such way that Mr. Durham
could make nothing out of what he
said. How this man even knew in the
drst place that Mr. Durham was look
ing for the suitcase seemed mysteri-
Gus. The police locked the peculiar in
dlvldual up at the station.
Later in the morning the suitcase
was found at the depot in the tele-
phone booth. This discovery was made
by the man who came to sweep the
place. sa
Mr.. Durham was of the opinion that
one of three men who were in the
waiting room when he left his suit
case there had placed it in the tele-
phone booth and then undertaken to
work the owner for a reward.
The man locked up at the police
station does not appear to be in his
right mind. He talks very strangely.

TOSSED FROM WAGON
Driver Was INJURED
Henry Neubert Bruised When
Wheels of Vehicle Passed
Over Him
From Saturdays Daily.

Henry Neubert, 20 Wheeler av-
enue, North Mankato, was thrown
from a wagon that he drove yester-
day, while the horse was running
away along Main street, near Second,
and was somewhat bruised. TWO
wheels passed over his body.
This occurred about three O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Neubert was
driving along the bridge, coming from
the village over to the city, with a
small load of lumber. The wagon
bumped against a rail as it left the
bridge, and this caused a board to
slide forward and strike the horse.
This frightened the animal and he I'M
set off at very quick trot.
Mr.. Noubert was unable to control
the horse, and as Second street was
reached he fell to the ground. The
horse ran on to Broad, where he ran
into "a wagon, loaded with tile. This
stopped the runaway. One OF the
shafts of the runaway wagon was
broken.

Graduating Ceremonies at the Good
Counsel Academy.
Ten young ladies, graduates OF the
Academy of Our Lady of Good Coun-
sci, received their diplomas last
night during impressive and beauti-
full services IN the academy chapel.
The graduates were Misses Marie
Muellerleile, Marie Dieudone and
Gertrude Walser, from the classical
course, and Misses Theodore Beck,
Anna Roemer, Walburga Kronsch-
nabl, Elizabeth eraser. Leona Dletz,
Mathilda Shwendinger and Anna Ju-
berian from the commercial course.
The week just passed has been TAX
en- up with interesting events at the
academy, including the class, play,
class party, alumni meeting and ban
uuet, high mass for the graduates
and baccalaureate sermon, and now
the class of 1916 have hidden fare
we'll to the academy and left the
study rooms as full fiedged gradu
ates.
The chapel was beautifully deco
rated, the altar being illumined with
foliage, and pink roses adding an
exquisite touch of summer to the
scene. The auditorium was filled with
appreciative relatives and friends of
the graduates and school, and the
program was conducted with impress
sive solemnity. Soft music ushered
in the professional of young girls,
prettily attired in white, with white
wells covering their hair, who enter
ed two by two, passing slowly down
the central aisle, and being seated in
"a body near the center of the audi
forum. The graduates entered in
procession and took seats directly be-
fore the altar. They wore dainty
white dresses, all the more appro-
pirate for the occasion by reason of
their simplicity, and gave great at
tention to the closing sermon, by
Rev. Father Kuhlmann, S. j.
"This is a celebration in which We
are all interested because of it's great

larly of the care which the child re-
ceives in the home before entering
school, he called attention to the
fact that the mind of the child was
then in an inceptive state and was
filled with inceptive knowledge. In
the school the work begun in the
home was continued, and developed
in new way, which according to our
best desires must be under the guild

the parochial schools to give heav-
emily wisdom. We should, since we
are Catholic, and since we believe in
Christ, in gratitude to Almighty God,
and in recognition of our own needs,
we should of our own accord request
that this training and religious care
should be given to our children. We
can in this way only reach that full
education that is desirable. Ills not
quest of mere education, it means
thorough development. To the church
to the country, to our very selves,
such instruction under religious guild
anoe, means development" He went
on to show how the best instruction
could be obtained from the sisters,
those who devoted their whole life
to such work, and had no outside
interests, and nothing but the well
fare of the pupils at heart. He held
that the advantages that a parochial
school gave to the child gave him
better understanding of right and
wrong, which was very necessary
part of education. He held that it
was the duty of all, particularly in
this country so favored by God to
make known the truth OF Christian
ity, teach it in the schools, and show
by deeds in life that the love of
God, and man actuates to kindly feel
ings and deeds.
"He alone is true who is true to
God" said the speaker. ut is only
when we judge according to the
right standard that we can
influence others to go right q. :.
1t is with the wish that you young
ladies may ever bear in your minds
the lessons that you have received
here that l congratulate you as being
graduates of this institution"
While the students united in sing
ing the hymn to Our Lady of Good
Counsel" the diplomas were distrib-
uted to the graduates by Rev. Father
Alfred Spirig, after which the solemn
benedlction of the blessed sacrament
was given, and the program closed
with the singing of the TIE Deum.
Priests present to attend the ex-
ercises were Rev. Father A. J. Kuhl-
mann, S. j., Rev. Father Spirig, Rev.
Father John Spirig of Toledo, Ohio,
and Rev. Father H. J. Elskamp of
Prairie du Chen, Wis.
The academy has passed four
prosperous years, and has enjoyed a
steady increase in growth, more
students being enrolled each year.
A corps of efficient instructors, con-
sisting of eight sisters, in charge of
Mother Superior Isidore, instruct the
pupils from beginners through a reg
