The vacant lot between Baarch's
saloon and Leibold's barber shop is at
last to be put to other and better use
than raising garden sass. The agent
of the Mccormick reapers has leased
it and is having it put into shape for
displaying and storing the various
machines manufactured by that firm.

The sheriff's sale of III. Behnke &
Bros stock commenced last week
Tuesday. The sale is generally pretty
we'll attended and the sales so far have
averaged about $500 per day. AS a
general thing the poorer class of goods
bring pretty good prices, while the
better class are in nearly every in.
stance bid in at a rate far below cost
price. The sale will continue from
day to day until all the goods are sold.
A furious runaway occurred last Fri.
day afternoon, but aside from promis-
cuonsly strewing the wagon about on
Minnesota street no damage was done.
A Mr.. Nelson, the owner of the team
and who was little the worse off for
liquor, was afterwards arrested for
leaving the team standing in the street
unhitched and after nights lodging
in'jail, was fined $5.45. The practice
of leaving teams standing in the streets
unhitched is a common occurrence, and
if the marshal is going to arrest all
guilty of that negligence he will have
his hands full.
The many friends of J. B. Russell,
for several years depot and express
agent at this place, will regret to learn
that he has resigned his post and will
in a, few days take his departure for
Amherst, Wisconsin. The position,
Tits occupant wishes to please both
the company and the public, is hard
one to f!ll,, but SO well and businesslike
has Mr.. Russell managed it's affairs
chat no word of complaint was ever
heard from any source. In his departure
the company looses an obliging and
faithful servant. G. w. Heideman,
for about year telegraph operator at
the depot, succeeds Mr.. Russell. Mr..
Heideman's past experience will serve
him well in his new position, and his
appointment gives universal satisfac.
ton among our business men.
