AS near as could be learned the fol-
lowing is an outline of one Of the most
openly played robberies that has ever
been committed. It seems that 4 Ger
man in Glencoe having some money
that he wished to invest, started by
way of Minneapolis to 20 up north
west to buy land, but Minneapolis
proved his Waterloo in the form Of a
woman who beguiled him into too
much wine and lust, and in early morn
skipped out, taking $10lO of her vic.
TINS money. Returning to Glencoe
first, she hired a team to take her to
Brownton, the next station west of
Glencoe. At Brownton she purchased
the team and drove on to Hector where
she arrived about 8 O'Clock p. IN. Here
failing to obtain pilot to Bird Island,
she stopped for the night, putting up
at the Sherman House. About S q. M.
the next morning, a constable, the
victim and two others arrived. Ulti-
matum-a compromise by which the
victim gets $$745.OO of his money back,
and the woman gets the team, SO 90
and liberty. Thus again to save a little
cost another criminal is put on her
good behavior.
C. A. Knapp is finishing his building
and by present appearance Knapp's
Drug Store is one of the fixtures of
Hector.
The elevator has been purchased by
Marshall & Peterson, of Red Wing,
and is now under the immediate charge
of VIM. Marshall.
The former station agent W. F.
LANCE has flown. II. w. Clark has left
the operators chair, and Mr.. Corse Of
Pennington handles the Depot.

Marshall Conrad shipped female
tramp on the east bound train last

We had the pleasure to see Henry
Dressler on our streets last Monday.
Henry looks as corpalent as ever.
The horse race last Saturday was de-
clared a draw, and the stake holder
pockets the money. Good enough.
The pic mic last Sunday was but
poorly attended owing to the threaten

A party from Iowa passed through
this place on Monday for Redwood

Considering there is so much green

There is nothing that attracts quick.

The latter part of last week was ex-

Mr.. M. Mullen has erected a very
neat Office on one of Mr.. Bingham s

thing and had lively run of its
own account, but was captured before
any damage was done.
Such Of our farmers as have threshed,
with but few exceptions, are com
planning at the very poor yield OF
wheat. One man threshed the yield
from forty-fiYe acres and realized 200
bushels, aud one third of that was
cookie seed. But this is a rare case.

Pelitic,.I. .

Although this is a busy season for
the farmers, nearly every town in the
county will be represented in the Re.
publican convention next Saturday, as
unusual interest is being taken in the
primaries. We are panied to see that
certain parties in this city are working
SO strenuously to secure an outspoken
or pledged Wakefield delegation to the
State convention from this county not
because of any opposition to Mr..
Wakefield's candidacy on our part, but
because such a course is detrimental to
the candidacy of Col. VIM. Pfander
and, if successful, may be the means
Of defeating him. It is certainly to be
desired that a perfectly independent
delegation is sent; one that has the
Colonel's interest at heart and can act
upon the guberEatorial question freely
and as they deem best.
But little interest is centered in
county politics this fall, which is par
TALLY owing that there are but two Of
fees to fill, and for one of those, co,ln.
ty treasurer, no one has yet been nam.
ed who is willing to enter the arena
against Mr.. Schubert, the present in
cumbent, and the convention next
Saturday may make no nomination at
all for this office. For the Office Of Co.
Sup't. there is more strife, and the
names of four candidates, J. B. Viii
likanje, r. G. Bestor, Knute Ander-
son and Tory Olesen, will be present
ed to the convention next Satur-
day. Which one of them is the COM
ing man remains to he seen. On the
opposing side, D. G. Clary and Thos.
Bowen, both of the town of Home, are
mentioned as candidates for superin'
tenQent.

For County superintendent.


Upon the solicitation of many Re-
publicans, Tory Olesen has signified
his willingness to allow his name to
lie used before the coming Republican
county convention as a candidate for
the Office of Superintendent of Schools.
Mr.. Olesen is a graduate Of the Man.
kato Normal school and in every way
well qualified for the position. He is
at present a teacher in one of the pub
lie schools in this city, which position
he has creditably filled for a number
of years. He is Furthermore staunch
Republican and has done the party
good service in times gone by.

We have seen Redwood and give
that enterprising village credit for
their good sidewalks. But Lorenzo
would be equally as well off in that
respect if the walks we're laid which
the city council ordered some three
months ago. What's up, is it a steal!
Busted sends us a long account of
the excursion or the Lorenzo base ball
club to Redwood Falls last Friday, but
for this week suffice it to say that it
was a grand success and that the Lo-
reno boys beat the Redwood club by a
score Of 90 to 20. We will give Bust.

dents connected Herewith next week.
