Dounelly's Minnehaha Resort.

The Sunday entertainments given at Donnel-

feature during the present season. The Great
Western band, under the leadership of Prof.
Seibert, is always on hand to discourse music
to the congregated crowd. To-day an un-
usually attractive programme is offered, and
will, no doubt, attract large assemblase.
Trains will leave St. Paul at 80 and 3:05 P.

doubt a large number of citizens will drive out
in carriages, and thus be independent of rail-

be found at which to spend the only holiday
the great majority of people enjoy.
