Robinson s. Co., Milwaukee, and is
! looking as handsome as ever.
A BEAR was seen in Wisconsin near
Bay City Tuesday morning. Several
persons gave chase and one man had
two shots at it, but was too much excit-
ed to do any execution. The hunters
say its weight must have been at least
500 pounds.
ONE of our Red Wing boys, aged Is,
was promised the other day $500 when
twenty-one, if he would leave off tobac-
co till that time. The youth was al
lowed until the next morning for refec-
ton, when he responded, eyes, if you'll
pay me 800 down.
The new hotel is completed, and all
that is now required is lessee to move
in and furnish it. The Board of Direc-
tors are daily in receipt of offers for the
position, but they are determined to Sc
cure none but first class landlord, and
so far nothing is definitely decided
upon.
The Institute opens to-day better
than its friends hoped under the circum-
stances. The mortgage upon it has
been arranged by the aid of it's friends;
and this fact, with the securing of q
first-class associate principal, who is to
have the complete management, will re-
suit in full and prosperous school dur
ing the next quarter.
We are glad to learn that Mr.. W. s.
Grow, Master of the Goodue County
Council, P. of H., has been appointed
Deputy for this county. Mr.. Grow is
one of our early and most earnest Pa
irons, and his appointment is in accor-
dance with request sent up from the
County Council. Under his leadership
as Deputy and County Lecturer, the
oranges Of this section may reasonably
expect season of renewed prosperity.
One Of the institutions of Red Wing
is the fruit stand of McHugh e. Brown,
corner Of Bush and Main streets. They
keep constantly on hand the best Of
apples, peaches, grapes, plums, pears,
etc., and are receiving fresh supplies
daily. Their assortment of California
fruits is superb. A special feature of
their business is the sale of apples by
the peck, bushel, or barrel, and Of
peaches and grapes by the box. Give
them a call.
GooDHuE county people do not per-
NIT their cattle to run at large, and the
result is that they save themselves the
enormous expense of fencing, which
would otherwise amount to more than
the prof: they could make on the stock
they would raise. But they do not
raise less stock than formerly, though
they fence what they have in pastures,
and when these give out, either picket
the stock on the roadsides, or have
them herded on vacant lands. The
plan works well and gives general salts
faction, except to the village people,
who are thus compelled to pay either
for pasturing or herding their cattle.
Farmers in those counties where ''fenc-
ing OUT is still in vogue would dc well
to profit by the experience of the Good
hue county folks.
IT being rumored on Monday that S.
J. Willard was to take the noon train
east, with some clandestine design on
the future Of some fair daughter of Ve~
nus, a writ Of injunction was issued by
the High Old Syndic Of the Shakes
pearian Syndicate and served on Mr..
Willard by the Grand Mogul, o. H.
Hall, at the depot, just before the leav-
ing of the train. Mr.. Willard smiling
ly pocketed the writ and affidavit there
to attached, on which the. same was
granted, and asking friend to endea-
vor to obtain dissolution of the in
junction and telegraph him at Milwau-
kee, took his departure amidst numer-
GUS hand shakings and we'll wishes.
The cool self possession of the Auditor
in the face of impending peril showed
him to be every inch syndic.
