If there is any reliance to be placed in rumors which are being circulated at present, the contest for the re- publican nomination for sheriff is going to be a “humdinger’—what- ever that may mean. _At the present time, but one aspirant has filed for the nomination, he being Fred Olson of Blackduck; but it is known that there are several other candidates who will file later. Just how strong Olson’s following may be isa matter eonjecture, as his supporters are evideitly . not doing a great deal in his behalf; at least one hears but little of his can- didacy. A. B. Hazen, who has made such a good showing for the office of sheriff in the last two campaigns, is an avowed candidate again, and judging from sufface indications, he has the lead. One who eeems to have authority to speak on the matter states that Arne Solberg will be a candidate; but that gentleman has neither affirmed nor denied the report of his candidacy. Some parties will insist that Wes Wright, chairman of the board of county commissioners, candidate for sheriff. =~ Wes himself states that he “might as well go,” but he has not filed, and what he may really do in the matter in the future is what he is keeping to him- self. It is more than likely that neither Thomas Bailey or J. N. Bailey will be candidates for sheriff; in which case, the candidates which have been mentioned will have a fine old time hustling votes. The time for filing for the primar- ies closes on August 24th, and much that may develop ere that time will change the entire complexion of the present conditions, relative to sheriff. WRIGHT MAKING CLEAN CAMPAIGN. * No adverse comment has yet been heard regarding B. F. Wright's method of campaigning. And none will. Mr. Wright is waging his can- didacy for the judgeship on most commendable terms.—Walker Pilot. Right you are, neighbor. Mr. Wright is an honor to the profes- sion, and he is not hiring campaign managers who are boasting of the “barrel” back of ‘their candidate, either. TYPHOID AT MANKATO.

LONG LIST OF VICTIMS| Two Persons Are Killed and Eleven .Wounded During the Progress of the Bandits Through the Streets. Two of Them Are Finally Sur- rounded in a Cemetery and One ls Killed and Another Captured. ‘Boston, July 24.—After three deadly battles between three desperadoes, the police and a small army of citi- zens, the first encounter being in a barroom, the second in the peaceful streets of Jamaica Plains and the third in the quietude of a cemetery, one of the bandits was riddled with bullets and killed; a second, believed to be wounded, was being searched for in the cemetery, while the third was captured. The desperadoes left behind them in their trail of over a mile and a half two dead and eleven wounded. The desperadoes’ career of terror started by the “shooting up” of the saloon of Winterston & McManus on Washington street. Shortly before the closing hour, when the barroom was full of men, three men, apparently Italians, made their appearance at the door and shouted “All hands up.” ‘When the shooting was over it was found that Frank J. Drake had been- killed, Patrick Doran had received a bullet in the abdomen and Thomas ‘Winterston had been shot at the base has ‘been nqpsm;ete this the representatives of and his crew, dressed in the CHAMPLAIN MONUMENT. of the period, sailed up to the city at the point where - Champlain. landed and entered: the structure reproducing the rough paiisade fortress which the navigator first occupied. Champlain and the other historical personages then filed before the Prince of Wales. The historical groups take in the ro- mantic period of the French occupa- tion of Canada, beginning with Jacques Cartier and his early adven- turers down to the battle between the armies of Montcalm and Wolfe on the plains of Abraham. The groups are presented on a scale of lavish mag- nificence, with 5,000. persons costumed of the skull and in the left arm. i The police made a careful search all night long without result, but later itwo men were discovered in Calvary ‘cemetery. When the desperadoes found that they were pursued they drew their revolvers and, with a yell, began firing on all sides. The first person hit was Mrs. Delia Fallon, who was walking down South street. Offi- cer Ingliss then received a bullet in the leg. The men passed through Cun- ningham field, Lee street and into New Keyes street, down which they ran directly into Washington street. On Washington street, where electric cars are passing almost incessantly and hundreds of people were walking, the two men fired shot after shot. They commanded everybody to hold up their hands and even ordered the motorman of an approaching car to stop. The motorman dropped behind | ‘the dashboard and the conductor, Thomas Moore, who stepped off the car to see what was the trouble, re- ceived a bullet in the. leg. Michael Flinn picked up a stone to hurl at the bandits and received ome bullet in the head over the right ear and another ipassed over the left ear, knocking off his hat. Patrick McGinn was shot in the wrist, Thomas Flemming in the hand and John Nolan received a bullet in the arm, while John H. Wrightman carries two bullet holes in his trousers to show where the bullets grazed the ccalf of his leg. Seek Refuge in Cemetery. The men continued on through New Keyes street to a sand hill, where they stopped and, according to some men and boys who watched them, loaded four automatic revolvers with rolls of cartridges. Through Williams street the men entered Franklin park and thence passed into Forest Hill cemetery. Herbert H. Knox, the watchman, who had been on the lookout for the men, came upon one of them unex- pectedly and before he was able to iuse his pistol was shot through the abdomen. Knox died & three hours later. About daybreak the officers who had been guarding the cemetery to prevent the outlaws’ escape were given the order to advance toward the center of the cemetery. Scarcely a quarter of an hour later a man sprang up in front of the officers at the south side of the cemetery and started off on the run. The man was barefooted, a broken derby covered his head, a torn and ragged coat was on his back | and in one hand he carried a heavy revolver, while from the other dan- gled a reel of cartridges. For more than a mile across the cemetery the man raced madly over graves, around shrubbery, through gulleys and over mounds, an ever in- creasing mob of policemen following in his wake. All at once he disap- ‘peared in a ravine not two hundred yards from the main Morton street entrance to the cemetery grounds. But one bit of shrubbery marked the lewer level of the ravine and into this the man sprang to make his final stand. In a moment the sides of the avine were lined many deep with the |bluecoats, revolvers were brought to pear upon the bush in the gulley and shot after shot was poured into it. When the rain of shot was over offi- ‘cers approached the bush and, parting 'the leaves, found the desperado’s body pierced by a hundred bullets. Almost at the same time another commotion was created on the oppo- site side of the main gate, within the .confines of the main cemetery, and a :man Who had refused to throw up his Mands had been seized and disarmed. Both the dead body and the captive ‘were taken to Jamaica Plains station. Some doubt arising, however, as to ‘the identity of the captured man, offi- ‘cers were agaln marched back int) the cametery to continue the search HISTORICAL - PAGEANT.. Novel Feature in Connection With Quebec’s Ter-Centennary. Quebec, July 24.—The arrival of the Prince of Wales was the signal for the official opening of the celebra- tioh commemorating the 300th anni- versary of the founding of Quebec by, Champlain.

The -ceremony marked the formal opening of the new harbor. Instantly the American gunboat Wolverine, the only war vessel on the Great Lakes, responded with a salute of twenty-one guns.

Crumpacker, members of congress from the Calumet region; ‘William Livingstone of Detroit, pres- ident of the Lake Carriers’ associa- tion, and representatives of the town of Gary and of the steel company.
