The Oronoco Mill Ruined.

The most serious calamity occasioned
by the recent storms in this vicinity, SO
fur as we have yet heard Of, is the de-
struction Of the bridge and mill at Oro'
noco, in the northern part Of Olmsted
county. The mill was large, expen-
sive structure, fitted with all the mod
ern improvements and capable Of
manufacturing about 120 barrels Of
flour per day. It belonged to Messrs.
Allis, Gooding & Hebbard, and has
only been in operation one season since
it was remodelled and improved by its
present proprietors. 1t afforded con-
venient market for wheat to consider
able district of country, extending into
this and Wabasha counties, and furn-
ished that community with an excellent
quality of flour within an easy distance.
Its loss will, therefore, be a public ca
lamity. From what we can learn Of the
damage sustained, it will require the

Voted that the committee on music
be directed to procure the service Of the
Noras Harp Band.
Voted that when the committee on
programme is appointed, that committee
be instructed to prohibit the selling o,

was saw-mill from which Red Wing
obtained it's supplies of lumber. It was
there that the Indians purchased goods,
and it was not uncommon for 200 or
800 of them to assemble in the vicinity.
1t was claimed that Wacouta would
have been made the county-seat had
not Red Wing folks sent up to St. Paul
and hired some fellows to come down
and vote for them, and they, then, only
beat Wacouta by two majority.
At the celebration, Mr.. A. D. Shaw,
then Judge Of Probate, figured as orator
of the.day and delivered an excellent
address. He made a claim where
Lake City now stands and afterwards
sold it to Abner Dwelle for 1875, and
moved to Kansas. When the time ar
rived for calling for toasts, paper was
found to be scarce; old envelopes were
torn open and used and some of those
present resorted to birch bark taken
from trees in the vicinity. Our inform
ant could give us but one of the toasts,
which was offered by Mrs. Eggleston,
who is now living in Worthington with
her daughter, Mrs. Prince, it was
written on birch bark and read thus:
"Musquitoes-may their bills grow
shorter

Something S Esw Under the

housewives have to perform, and for
years human ingenuity has been en-
gagged in devising some sort Of machinery
to tighten the task. Numerous "wash-
ing machines" have been produced, but
so far none of them seem to answer the
purpose fully, and after brief expert
mental use they have been thrown aside,
and the public mind is about convinced
that this is one of the kinds of labor that
machinery cannot be made to do. A
few days ago, however, we were shown
by the agents for this State and Wis
consin, Messrs. r. S. Harrington and
William Garvin, a new invention called
"Hawley's Improved Double Agitating
Clothes Washer
This is very simple apparatus, and
unlike any other invention for washing
that we ever saw 0: heard of. 1t is
simply two hollow cones made of cop
per and fastened to a wooden handle,
the larger and outer one firmly, and the
smaller one by means Of a spiral spring.
The small cone is pierced with number
of holes. The mode of operating is to
place the clothes in tub, after they
have been we'll soaked and soaped, pour
plenty Of boiling water over them, and
then souse down the washer upon them
two or three dozen times. The sudden
compression of the air drives the water
through the fabric, and this expels the
dirt, not even leaving that in the folds
of cuffs and collars, which is most diff
cult to remove.
In order to remove all the dirt, the
clothes are then dipped out and placed
into another tub of clean water, when
the sousing process is repeated for a few
minutes, and the clothes are then ready
for rinsing.
Mr.. Joseph Batlo, of the Batlo House
Of this city, has one of these machines,
and he tells us that washings which
formerly employed two women two
days, are done nov with this machine
by one woman in half day; also, that
it only requires half the quantity of
soap and that the clothes are washed
cleaner than they are likely to be by
hand. They do not boil the clothes
either when using this machine, except
to pour scalding water over them in the
tub. He says he would not be with out
this machine for 500.
Messrs. Harrington & Garvin are
now selling the machines and town and
county rights, and have engaged Messrs.
Nelson & Peterson, of this city, to man.
ufacture for them. Any person wanting
information about this new invention
can obtain the same at Messrs. N. &
P.'s store on Bush where the machines
are on sale at $500 piece.

The Ancient Days.

In noticing the Centennial Picnic
Ground, just prepared by Mr.. Brown, a
Wacouta, in last weeks Aduance, We
remarked that it would be an appropri'
ate place for this county to hold its Cen
tennial celebration, because it was the
scene Of the first celebration of Indepen.
dence Day ever held in the county
From Mr.. j. B. Smith who was present
on that occasion, we learn that that
festival took place in 1854. The set.
lcrs of Goodhue county generally were
invited and large majority of them
attended. At an early hour in the
morning teams were pouring in from
every direction, and the welkin rang
with shouts, reports of fire-arms, shoot.
ing crackers and other appropriate
noises.
The pouring was not long continued,
however, because the numbers to be pour
ed were not very numerous. The sup.
ply was meagre. The county was not,
at that time densely populated, and
Wacouta was the big city Of the county,
the competitor with Red Wing for the
countY-seat, and the commercial me.

deceased, had large store and hotel

MAUD ANDI.

Maud came tripping through the meadow
With an apron full of flowers,
And a smile upon her features,
Features wondrous rare.
Eyes as black as summer berries,
Lips as red and ripe as cherries,
Night entangled in her hair.
She looked up with merry greeting
AS I turned to walk beside her,
Answered with laugh and dimple
When I asked kiss.
Thought an instant, then half coyly,
Raised her eyelids very shy.y,
Asking "Why is thisS"
Then had to tell my secret,
How through many months I'd loved her
Waiting for the golden moment,
could tell her so.
Then she answered very sweetly,
eve a secret kept discretely-
Would you like to know?
Bend down nearer, 1 Will whisper,
So no passing bird shall hear it
Or no summer breeze shall bear It
Where it should not go:
We are jealous of our treasures,
And the fondest of my pleasures
Is your love to know
Maud and walked through the meadow
With our arms about each other,
Brooking low and then the silence
With delicious signs.
Thus we touched the brink of heaven,
Drinking of loves cup-that'sgiVen
Out ofGod's pure skies.

SYNOPSIS Of the remarks made by Judge
Jilsun at the Hayes aad Wheeler Club meet
ing at Simmcns Hall week ago Saturday
evening unavoidably delayed last week.
President Hnsdale, informed the meeting
that Col. Howe and C. e Winsor, who were
expected to speak this evening were absent,
that there was a new element, known as the
Liberal party who were identifying them
selves with the Republicans in this cam
paign, that it would be desirable to hear
from some one of them; he would therefore
cali upon Judge Jilsun. MIR. j. came for
ward saying he did not desire to make him
self conspicuous or active In this campaign,
that his health would not permit any great
excitement in politics or anything else. He
had signed the call for the club, had done it
upon mature reflection and upon the con-
yiction that it was the right thing for him to
do. aud thought he could give good rea-
son for it. The Liberal party left the Re
publican party in 1872. mainly because they
bad lost faith in Gen. Grant, both in his ad-
ministrative measures and policy, and in his
military mode of running the party. They
did not desire his denomination or election.
The revelations of the credit mobilieY scan
DIAL came also at this time and revealed to
their convictions. corruptions which they
thought should be investigated, BOT which
the party ignored hence their alliance with
the other party to defeathim.
