Action of Two City Councils Has
Lifted All the Obstacles
OMAHA CAN MAKE FILL
Also Remove Islands From the
Minnesota River; Quick
Work of Committee
From MONDAYS EaLiy.


The city councils of Mankato and
North MankatO this forenoon took
the final steps to enable the Omaha
railway company to put in it's re-
, tanning wall, make its fill and re-
move the islands in the Minnesota
river opposite the fill. The depot
committee of the Mankato CONNER
cial club has been very active the
last few days and as a result of con-
ferences held with the North Man
| kato council and others all difficult
ties that had come up recently, that
looked as though they might block
the proposed improvement, were to-
day smoothed away. The North
Mankato council met at eight o'clock
/ this morning and adopted resolu-
ton consenting to the proposed i'm
prOvement and the removal of the
/ islands to a depth Of one foot below
the water line when Engineer B. NJ.
Gallagher made his survey last sum-
mer, when the river was down into
the channel on the North Mankato
| side and all of the rest of the bed
was high and dry. The amount of
dirt to be removed with the islands
| is about $4,000 cubic yards, which is
just about enough to make the fill.
Similar Resolution Adopted.
A similar resolution was intro
duced in the Mankato city council
| meeting this forenoon by Commits
sioner lHumiston, who moved that it
be adopted, and it went through
unanimously. 1t provides that if the
Omaha railway company enters in
to a contract with a reliable con-
| tractor who gives a bond, for the re-
moval of the islands opposite the fill
! to be made on this side of the river
by the company, and one foot below
the water mark at the time of Mr..
! Gallagher's survey, and one Of the
islands below the bridge, most of
which is opposite the fill, this shall
be deemed compliance with the
| resolution heretofore passed by the
council rs r aU
At one time Yesterday, it looked
as though the whole Improvement
might be thrown UP into the air, but
the Commercial club committee,
through the efforts, of Messrs. Pat
terson and Crandall, met with Mayor
j. B. Nielsen and other North Mankato
men and the result was that the OBJ
jections raised in North Mankato be-
cause it was not proposed to go low
, er with the eXcavating were re-
moved. A reasonable view was TAX
en- of the matter, by the North Man
kato council and a special meeting
was hastily summoned at eight
O'Clock this morning and the reso-
LUTON. want throuoh without 1Oy
particular opposition. Mayor Nielsen
had planned on taking the early train
to the twin cities, but deferred his
trip to later train at the earnest
solicitation of the committee.

ing April his department had made
thirty two arrests and cared for
ninety five dodgers.
The council granted applications
for licenses and approved bonds, as
follows:
Plumbers Licenses-R. J. Power,
$4,000 bond, with National Surety
Co; McLaurin & Northrop and Phil
H. McGraw, $4,000 bond each with
Lyon Bonding and Surety Co; Krost
& Harry, $4,000 bond, with Southern
Surety Co.
Junk Dealers Licenses-Joe Wish
mich, Albert Gender, Mankato Scrap
Iron and Metal Co., $1,000 bond each,
with the National Surety Co.
Use of Streets. K. Fowler, ST.
600 bond, with National Surety Co.
The bond of c.. M Masters, for
SLIP, on his water main and sewer
extension contract, with the Massa-
chusetts Bonding and Insurance Co.,
as surety, was approved.
City Engineer Blomquist presented
plans and specifications and estimates
on a sanitary sewer extension on
Byron street from State south 215
feet and on Washington street from
Fifth east. The Byron street project
is estimated to cost $179, and to
serve four lots, at cost of about $40
each. The Washington street sewer
is estimated to cost $500, and would
be part of a trunk sewer for the
Agency hill sewer, when built The
hearing was set for May IS.
Mayor Lamm recommended that
three new arc lights be placed as fol-
lows: Hubbell avenue in West Man
kato, at the railroad crossing; be-
tween Division and Dickinson streets,
in East Mankato; and at the ST. Pet
err railway crossing He also recon-
mended that five incandescent lights
be placed in the alley on the west
side of Front street, between Main
and Poplar, which would be quite an
aid to the police. The council voted
to order lights in.
The bills were allowed, including
the following pay rolls: Parks,
$3.50 80; health department, 500;
waterworks and sewers, $50. 80;
streets and alleys, $468 65.

Chief LOCATED A HORSE
Animal Had Strsyed Away From Home;
Was Found Out OF City BY
Clarence P0hl
From MONDAYS EsIIv

Chief of Police Klugherz located
another strayed or stolen horse yes
terday. Last week he recovered a
horse stolen from Currie man, and
will claim the reward of 5000 offered
by. the state for horse stealing. Yes
terday's find was due to his having
on Saturday received q postal card
from the sheriff of Mobiles county,
stating that three year old bay
mare had been stolen from August
Rosenberg of Rushmore, or had
strayed away April 8, and that a re-
ward for her return was offered, il
strayed, or 5000 by the state if stolen
and the thief captured. Mr.. Klug-
herr gave the substances of the card
to the newspapers Saturday, and as
a result Clarence Pohl yesterday tel
ephoned to Mr.. Klugherz that horse
answering the description. strayed
by his place few days ago and he
had taken her up and had her. Chief
Klugherz notified the sheriff at
Worthington and he arrived on the
noon train today, accompanied by the
owner, to take the horse back. There
is no evidence that the mare was
stolen, yet it is a long way for a
horse to stray.

rom Monoay's CaiIy.

From Monoay's OaiIy.
Four Mankato young ladies were
ready to testify this morning that
they could qualify in any sprintlng
event that might be pulled Off IN
Nankato TINS summer, a thrilling ex-
perience of yesterday having proven
to them that they could get over the
ground should occasion require with
a rapidity that would far exceed the
speed limit.
With hearts filled with the beauty
of the springtime, and a desire TO
gather the early flowers which are
blooming along the country roads, the
four girls strolled out through the
village of North Mankato, and then
down to what is known as the bot
tom road" leading to West Mankato.
AS they wandered along, fearing no
harm, they were surprised to hear
man shout at them from a field near
by.
They Saw A Man.
Upon looking in that direction they
saw a stocky individual clothed In
blue Jeans madly waving his arms at
them. and thinking that he might be
an insane patient escaped from the
st. Peter asylum the four started to
walk on as rapidly as dignity and new
Sunday clothes would allow. One OF
the girls, descendant of Lots wife,
looked back over her shoulder.
Good lord girls, he is coming!
she cried.
! A quartet of feminine shrieks rent
the mild spring air, and four pair OF
high topped boots and varigated silk
hose started at headlong speed down
the rough road. ars
Two Rifle Balls.
! Seeing that the girls had taken
! flight the villain, who still pursued
them, sent two rifle balls. speeding
after them, the shots echoing loudly
through the valley, and accelerating
the speed of the girls who sprinted
down the road at rate that made
the modest budding violets start up
and take notice No pause was made
until the villain was left so far be-
hind that he could no longer be
seen for the cloud of dust raised by
the flying feet, and the citys gates
doomed in the foreground. Breathless
and painting the girls paused and con-
graduated each other upon their mar
row escape Now why did he do it?

Miss Mary E. Cutler, director for
the Mankato historical pageant to be
given at Sibley park on July 4th, met
Saturday with the people who are to
put on the different scenes, and went
over with them the details of their
acts. Those in charge had their ideas
worked into definite shape, and all
we're enthusiastic and ready to get
down to hard work. 1t was decided
to add to the regular scenes three or
four pretty interludes in the nature
of symbolic dances, which will be
among the most beautiful features Of
the pageant. The scenes which are
to be put on by the German, Welsh
and Scandinavian people promise to
be of especial interest and will be
marked by excellent music, as well as
being handsomely staged and well act
ed. Miss Cutler returned to Mime
apolis Saturday night, and whenever
her advice is needed she will visit
Mankato and meet with pageant
committees. z
Mrs. w. w. Davis, in charge of the
home coming committee, reported to-
day that the committee was already

completed before the last of this
month, in order that invitations may
be mailed by June l or before. The
committee will appreciate the CO.

the matter of looking up the names

er wavered throughout her vivid
descriptions of life in India. Shr
told of the movement toward Chris
tianity which was being felt in that
foreign land stating that an ever
age of one hundred people day
were now coming into the Christian
church, the large proportion of whom
were known as "low caste.'
Area of India.
BY comparisons she gave an idea
of the area of India and the dense
ness of its population, which is
crowded into many villages, thou
sands of them dotting the country,
and explained in detail the distinc-
tons Of caste" among the Hindu
people, and the work of the Christi
an missionaries among them. She
told of the efforts made by the mis-
sionaries to lead the ignorant peo-
pie to Christianity, and the many
methods they used to instruct them;
how they set the story of Jesus to
native music, that the people might
thus learn it and have it indelibly
impressed upon their memory. Chris
tianity is proving great leveler,
she explained, and the high and low
caste children of parents who had
accepted Christianity were now be-
ing taught together in the Christian
schools. Considering the deep root
ed observance of "caste" in India,
Miss Robinson stated that she con-
sidered the fact of getting the chill
dren of different "caste" parents to-
gether in one school one of the most
wonderful and hopeful things about
the missionary work, and that they
could be in a generation taught to
forget the restrictions of caste"
Vocal solos were sung during the
service by Sidney Davies, and duet
