EDITOR JoUkNAL-The world still moves.
On the 2lst, Mr.. VIM. Schroeder, of
Paynesville, and Miss Tinna Shultz, of
Zion, were Joined in matrimony by Rev.
Daniel Belmont.
On the same day was appointed tho an
nual camp meeting Of the Methodists of
this part of the country. Tho meeting
was held ten miles south, at Union Grove,
instead of on the old ground where you
saw them last year. The rain, however,
interfered somewhat, and the meeting did
not get to running until Thursday the 22d.
BY the way,it is rather hard road to trav-
81 from here to the Grove, and some wished
the Grove people had come here instead of
having US 90 there. The meeting was enc
Of interest and was under the manage.
msnt Of Rev. N. Lathrop, P. E. Of the
District, who preached on. Sunday at 10
o'clock A. n, to an exceedingly interested
audience OF say four OF five hundred.-
The meeting closed on Monday about noon.:
The camp meeting Of tho German Evan
geliosl Association was held about four
miles from this place at the same time
These are thoroughly loyal AID evangel-
ical people. As citizens they are ''No l."
Their piety is Of the fervent and demon
strative type. Their meetings are often
quite noisy. Good was doubtless accom-
plished at both these meetings.
The Germans have erected neat house
Of worship on a commanding spot, some
four miles north of here It is truly like
city .'set on hill"
The CongreRationalists of this place have
the foundation Of their new church laid in
workmanlike manner.
Since the rain tho grain is looking up
with cheerfulness; and We hope for fair
crop if the weather continues propitioue.

post efice before next year, and you pub
lish it prior to New Years day, I shall con-
slider myself under lasting obligations TO-
