MAPLE GRovE.-Mr. Fritsch, on old
and respected citizen of this town, was
robbed of $50 at the July fair, 1875.
held at Mr.. Phillip Falk's, Brown coun-
ty, where he desired to sell or trade off
his horse. He was offered $165 by q
man unknown to him, but did not ac-
cept of it. After a short interval the
man i'll question placed his arm around
Mr.. Z. s neck and offered higher price,
but was refused on the plea that he felt
sick. His companion told him to lay
down, being then in the stable, which he
did, and very soon was lost to conscious
ness. When he recovered his senses he
fonnd his pocket-book and contents evap-
GRATED. Mr.. Fritsch says he was drug
ged, and is thankful he escaped so well.
No effort was made to capture the thief.
A great many farmers of this town are
rejoicing at the evident downfall of
the grasshoppers. The little insects re-
ferred to in THE TRIBUNE q few weeks
since are working wonderfully in this
vicinity. Many fields of spring wheat
are literally black with the pests, and
were you to observe them from a dis
lance you would be led to believe they
were still carrying on their work of de-
struction; but on nearing the pestifer-
Gus enemy you viii then behold to your
great surprise that they have fortunately
ceased their inglorious work.
Mr.. John O'Hara, ex-post-master of
Maple Grove post-ofice, thought it a
good joke to abscond in time so that his
srreties would have to rectity his dis
honesty. 1t appears that the Auditor
of the Post Office department finds him
delinquent to the amount of $24.02.

MEENIE NoTEs.-Pigeon Lake Is q
small body OF water III the town Of
Liberty, near the town line of Meme
1t is beautiful sheet of water nearly a
mile in length, containing one small is
land. The lake is fed from number of
large springs and the water is very pure.
1t is quite a resort for pleasure par
ties.
THE land trade has been very lively
for the past year or two. Nearly seven
hundred acres of land have changed
from the hands of lumberman and spec
ulators to farmers, all within one mile
of the lake. There is large amount of
excellent wheat land for sale here now
with but little timber, that having been
swept off by the great fire several years
ago. Immense quantities Of blachber-
riesyare picked from these lands. Every
season people come from all parts of
the country to gather the berries.
THERE were several depredations
committed against the farmers here
last season by shooting cattle with re
volvers. One farmer had large OK shot
and killed another had a two-year- old
heifer killed besides several sheep and
hogs. Such things Will be looked after
this season, and the william caught in
any of these acts will be shown the error
of his way.
The crop are looking more promising
than for many years. II. M. ID.

while boy living on the Eastside was be-
ing drawn from deep well, into which he
had gone for sport, something about the
MINDLESS gave way when he was near the
top, letting him fall back distance Of
forty feet. It was 4 lucky fall, for with
the exception of slight bruise on the
head, he was uninjured, and was taken
out as well as ever. :. -Four babies made
their first appearance IN Two Rivers
last Friday. 1t wasn't a very good day
for babies either . Some sneak thief
broke in to the smoke-house of Mr..
Benedict Meyor last Monday night and
carried off several hams A large fire

WTllE aware of the fact that the
average ''rural ROOSTER when finding
himself in the city, wonld indulge in
little excuses which in the staid matter
of fact routine of their daily lives would
be unthouSht OF, bat We certainly were
not prepared to hear that john Hume,
the heretofore upright and conscientious
editor OF the Chiffon Times, would so
upon him as an editor and honored
county officer as to descend to the low
business of horse stealing. Yet such is
the case, and We mourn for the blem-
ish cast upon the fair name of the edi
toriai fraternity !; feel grieved to think
how the news will come home to the
wife and little ones how his neighbors
and family will shake their heads and
exciaim ''poor John !" when the conyic
ton is finally forced upon them that he
has stray6d from the narrow path and
adopted the vile tricks of the ungodly.

and honored The fact in all its hidious
deformity is established, and even though
John says he came out of The court room
with all the horrors of State prison life
glowing in his mind, he took the wrong
horse and carriage and drove off with it,
leaving his old broken down beast IN its
place. and although a mistake and that
he willingly turned the same over to The
rightful owner when he demanded his
property with ''blood in his eye"-al-
though there are a hundred men in the
city who wonld go his bail for any sum
within their command the fact that he
started away from the court house with
another mans horse and bran new s5275
carriage stands out in bold relief, a dis
tressing example of how man becomes
bowildered when he leaves the quiet of
an inland village and enters the whirIing
vortex of metropolitan life. We want
to be charitable, John and to show
how anxious We are to keep you from
another such scrape, we hereby give
you an order on Tillson C Klingholtz

THERE is a feeling among our citizens
that better times are coming. From all
that can be learned, crops of every de-
scription in this county will turn out ex-
ceedingly well, and wheat at $1.20 a
bushel, with a promise that it will COM
mand that price during the entire fall,
is enough to make one think that the
''hard times" are owe, and that the next
few months will witness a great change
in business circles. Everything depends
upon our farmers, and when they can be
induced to part with their grain, receiv-
ing in return fair sum, it naturally fol-
lows that the stagnation in trade will be
overcome, and that for every bushel of
grain sold, one dollar and twenty cents
will be put in circulation.

SEVEN lengths of hose having been
week under a very light pressure, it was
determined by The Committee on Fire
and Water, the following day, to have
the remaining hose belonging to the
steamer tested, to ascertain how much
of it was worthless. Accordingly a
pressure of about 80 pounds to the
square inch was put upon it, and several
additional weak sections bursted, which
have been repaired and will yet do good
service. 1t is better to have the hose
burst when one is ready for it than to
have it rendered worthless when perhaps
thousands of dollars worth of property
Is endangered.
