He has just finished the harvesting of 13.5 bushels from a single acre of Mand on his father’s farm in Martin eounty. Professor Lewis of the Win mebago high school measured the ground and weighed the corn. Young Adams planted the Golden Jule vari- ety. The state land sale at Roseau was @ record breaker, more than 24,000 acres being sold. The average price ‘was slightly more than $12 an acre. The highest paid was $31 an acre.

Nearly 80,000,000 bushels of grain, ‘By far the greatest total on record, ‘was the showing of Minneapolis for feceipts from the beginning of the movement of the new crop to the close of November. Al G. Ray, chief special agent of the Great Northern railway, has declined to become chief of police of Minneapo- Ms. The position had been offered him by Mayor Elect Wallace G. Nye. CRIMES AND MISHAPS. i. A. Barstow of Anoka, while in a @elirious condition, escaped through @ window of his room and wandered off, dressed only in his nightshirt and mocks. Fifty men searched for him mearly all night. Later his body was found in Rum river. He had broken # hole in the ice with a post and dumped in. Patrick Manifold, aged thirty-five, well known cigar dealer of St. Paul, ended his life by jumping from the Fort Snelling bridge into the Missis- sippi river. Il] health and despond- ency over his mother’s refusal to agree to his marriage are believed to have caused him to take his life. A piano fell of Albert Turgeon of Minneapolis, employed by a piano «company, and the injury received re sulted in his death on the way to a hospital. Turgeon was helping carry ‘the piano and it slipped, knocking him ‘@own and striking him on the head. is skull was fractured. An unidentified man committed sui- eide at Staples by throwing himself ‘between the cars of a moving train. His remains were scattered for rods ver the right of way before the train could be stopped. The coroner could mot find a scrap of writing on the body ‘by which to identify it. While stacking cornstalks on a farm near Mankato owned jointly by Rouis, aged thirty-seven, and August Werhaeghe, the former was killed. He ‘was on top of a load of stalks when this team ran away. He was thrown under the horses and trampled on. In an effort to regain a rein he had @ropped, Peter Hokonson of St. Paul, @river for a fuel company, climbed down on the whiffietree of his wagon and, losing his balance, fell under the wheels. He was instantly killed, the heavy wheel crushing his skull. Peter Johnson, collector for a Min- meapolis brewery, has been indicted ‘by the Hennepin county grand jury on a charge of manslaughter in the second degree in connection with the death of Joseph Le Meur, nine years ld, on Nov. 11.

He was shot nearly through the body while resting on one arm and in the act of reloading his gun. The bullet ‘was never extracted. Rev. Father Herman Richards, as gistant pastor of St. Peter and Paul’s Catholic church of Mankato, died sud- @enly of apoplexy. He was born in Germany seventy-eight years ago and 4n 1867 was ordained a priest at Ly- | ens, France. S. Alcide Ainsworth, fifty-six years wld, cashier of the Pillsbury Flour Mills company, died suddenly at Min- eapolis.

Mentions Duluth Man in Testimony. Cross-examined by Senator John W. Kern, chief counsel for the defense at the the dynamite conspiracy trial at Indianapolis, Ortie E. McManiga) insisted that the explosions that were directed by McManigal all over the country were known to and dis- !eussed by officials of the Ifon Work- ers’ union. He instanced one case, where, he said, after returning to Indianapolis, after blowing up a “job” at Superior, Wis., in August, 1910, J. J. McNamara said to him: “A letter of thanks has been re- ceived for:the dynamiters’ visit to Su- perior from Fred Mooney, business agent at Duluth, Minn.” BECOMES TANGLED IN NET Fisherman Loses His Life When Wave Upsets Boat. John M. Scattland was drowned in Lake Superior at Clark bay, sixty miles from Two Harbors. Scattland and his partner, Weiken, were setting out some fish nets. They were about to lower heavy stone weights which hold the nets under water and had got the stones on one side of the boat when a wave hit the side of the skiff and turned it over. The two men came up, but Scattland | was tangled up in his net and the heavy stones dragged him under. FOR A REAL PROBE Criticises Committee Investigat- ing “Money Trust.” A resolution calling for early action by the banking and currency commit- tee in its investigation of the so called money trust was introduced in the house by Representative C. A. Lind- bergh of Minnesota, author of the orig- inal “money trust” inquiry resolution. The resolution in a voluminous pre- amble sets forth that in the “many months” since the investigation was authorized the “committee seems not to have considered the investigation from the standpoint of securing facts to aid in early future work in fram- ing remedial financial legislation, but seems rather to have been planning an investigation as if for indictment, and in such purpose is blocked by those who have offended against hon- est and impartial rules of business, and by government officials who deem the personal privileges of banks so sacred that their business shall not be inquired into, even for the benefit of the public welfare.” /DECIDED MINNESOTA CASE Supreme Court Upholds State Statute in Land Company’s Suit. The decision of the supreme court of the state of Minnesota in the case of Selover, Bates & Co. against Ella T. Walsh, was affirmed by the United States supreme court. Justice McKenna delivered the opinion. Chief Justice White and Justice Van De- vanter dissented. The suit arose over a@ contract made in Minnesota for the sale of land in Colorado and it was contended that the law of Colorado should rule instead of that of Minne- sota. The court refused to take this | view of the case and upheld the Min- nesota court. | TOTAL OVER ONE MILLION Sale of Minnesota State Lands Dur- ing Present Year. Concluding a state land sale at Fer- gus Falls by selling 2,200 acres of land at prices ranging from $5 to $21 an acre, State Auditor Samuel G. Iverson completed the last of the state land sales for the year and announced ‘that he had disposed of 165,000 acres at an average price of $8.50 an acre, against 169,000 acres | last year at an average of $7 an acre. This means that Mr. lverson has brought into the state treasury $1,- 402,500 from state lands this year, against $1,183,000 in 1911. TWO DROWN IN RAINY RIVER Skiff Springs Leak in Midstream, Sinking Beneath Men. Amos Annis and Michae! Cary, each twenty-nine years old, were drowned in the Rainy river while trying to cross the stream in an old skiff from Gleemans to Clementson.
