lung her brother, Mr. mos. OnleS-
Mr.. Farnham is expected up from
ST. Paul this evening, to enjoy our
cool weather for a day or two. Mr..
Shiels is also enjoying visit from
little nephew from Buffalo, who
arrived by steamer Wednesday
evening.
FAIR AND SQUARE.-The names
of the men who have the Kansas
Land and Immigrant Association in
charge, are a sufficient guarantee
that it will be conducted fairly and
squarely. Almost AL of them are
well and favorably known all over
the State, and need no commenda-
ton from u.s. Topeka (kas. J Com
monwealth. See letter of Gen. S.
NJ. Stricken in another column
Geo. Wheeler, the Government
blacksmith at Vermillion Lake, was
in this week and reported that two
Sioux braves had been at Vermillion
endeavoring to get the peaceable
Chippewas to join them in their
fight against the whites, offering, if
they would do so, to make peace
with them (the Chippewas) and
give them SO many ponies. The
Chlppewas, however, like good In
dams, refused to listen to them.
TRY 1T ONCE.-The manufactur-
ers of d. Is. DeLand 81 Co.'s Best
Chemical Saleratus, Messrs. H. A
DeLand &c Co., show their readi-
ness to have the merits of the artl-
Gle tested, for they authorize all
who sell it at retail to refund the
money when by fair trial it does
not prove to be as recommended.
That is fair and shows their conf
dence in the article. 1t is better
than Soda or Baking Powder.
The switch engine at Duluth
jumped the track near Munger &
Markets. elevator, Thursday after
noon. Fortunately it did not leave
the ties; if it had, it would have
soused into three or four feet of
water and an unknown depth of
mud. The engine which ran off
the end of side track, last week,
and was buried nearly out Of sight
in the swamp, was successfully
raised and found to be not much
injured.
The Government has concluded
not to build the Yellowstone forts
this season, the reason gwen being
that the water in the rivers is too
low to allow boats to transport the
lumber, though many are uncharit-
able enough to think that Indians
have more to do with it than low
water. Most of the material for
their construction has been shipped
to Bismarck, where it will have to
remain until next summer.
Among the jolly excursionists
who started Monday to make the
round of the lake on the Manistee
were James Bardon, of this place,
and Geo. NJ. Smith and Major
O'Brine, of Duluth. With his
good looks, good clothes, high hat
and air distingue, the boys thought
they could pass the Major off on
the Canucks as Dom Pedro without
any trouble. If be isn't a veritable
Dom, he's dom good fellow, any
how.
Don't forget that the State
Fair is to be held at Milwaukee,
Sept 18th to 10Th, inclusive. If
you are going to the Centennial,
then will be a good time to 90, as
you can take in the Fair on the way.
After living up here in the wilder
ness, IN this little bit of a corner of
our great commonwealth, it will 90
the average Superiorite good to at
tend the State Fair and get some
idea of the vast resources of, and
the advancement which has been
made by, this great, big State of
ours.
