uonaole, very entertaining, sparkling Win
wit and humor, and will be presented in q
creditable manner. We bespcak crowded |
houses, as the residents ~of this village and |
vicinity always literally patronize any en-
tertainments given by our local Amateurs
THAT FUEL SUPPLY.-The railroad com
pany have concluded to allow dealers to
retail wood at their stations. Judge IL.
Bragg has made arrangements with the
company to handle wood at this point, and
as soon as arrangements can be made will
Lave constant supply, which will be re-
tailed ut tive very reasonable rate of $3,oO
per Cord. We are very glad this important
question has been settled, and hope that it
may result in closing the breach and bring
ing about Il more friendly feeling between
the people and the Company.
Messrs. DIR. Sutherland, F. B. Kenner
and L. H. stanton returned from their deer
hunt last week with two fine bucks as ''tro-
plies of the chase" One of these an UNI
usually large animal, shot by the Doctor,
weighed when dressed, two hundred and
thirty pounds We would endeavor to
give an account of the incidents, events,
occurrences and adventures of the trip, but
we refrain from SO doing, only because we
are sfraid some of the parties would feel
sighted, we did endeavor to connect the
three several accounts we received and
publish them AS one romantic tale, but our
efforts Were not successful, there was a
discrepancy sOmew here, for which we
could not account SO we did not try to d.
vide two between three and give each Il
whole.
The wheat blockade will probably be
raised in few days, as ii is expected that
the new elevator in Minneapolis will be
ready to receive grain by the 18th. The
anchor ice which interfered with the run
ming of the mills does not now give trouble,
and consequently there will be no stoppage
from this cause. Business in Morris will
probably continue without further Interrupt
ton as the new elevator will be ready by
the Goth, and with this increase in storage
capacity and handling facilities, it is not
, probable that a temporary Blockade at ter
: minal points or along the line will stop the
receipts or clog the elevators. Prices con
tinue advancing and although the elevators
at present are receiving no grain, yet there
. is considerable wheat in store being sold
those holding tickets being satisfied with
the prices paid-NO. l brings from $3.50 tC
t$l 90 and No. 2 three cents lower.
