ship, Nicollet county, across the river
from this place, threshed about 5000
bushels of wheat and over l 800 of oats
a few days ago. He raised about 1000
bushels of Mammoth wheat which av-
erage about twenty bushels to the &C.
re. The wheat weighs62 pounds per
bushel, struck measure, and without
being cleaned after taken from the
separator.
REMARKABLE SUCCESS The sciences
of medicine and chemistry have never
produced so valuable remedy for the
treatment Of Kidney disease as the &C.
cidental discovery of the vegetable con
tanned in Days Kidney Pad. Its reli.
able character, desirable qualities and
mastery curative power have deeply
won upon the confidence of the medi-
cal profession and countless sufferers
who have used it.
We learn that nearly all the grain in
Cottonwood township has now been
threshed, and that there is also very
little left in most of the other towns in
this vicinity. There are yet a number
of jobs unthreshed below this place,
on the road leading to Mankato. But
a great deal of corn is yet in the fields
and unhusked, owing to the setting in
of cold weather so early in the fall and
the continuance of the same up to the
present time.
Rev. Fathers Haag and p. Neubrand
will hold mission services at the Ca
tholic church in this city from next
Sunday. Dec. 5th, to Sunday, Dec. IL
inclusive. Services will he held three
times each day. We are Informed
that one of the Fathers is an eloquent
speaker and that he will preach in the
English language each day. All are
cordially invited to attend.
Another newspaper, the Ne1vs, is
about to be established at Lake Ben
ton, Lincoln county, by Chas. M.
Morse, the former publisher of the
Times. Mr.. Morse is an able and
spicy writer and his reputation as an
ent erprising newspaper man is alrea-
dy established, but it remains to be
seen whether Lincoln county can sup
port three papers.
Quite large amount of wood has
been brought into town by farmers for
some days past, so that anyone could
have as muchas was needed for present
use and many have also commenced
to lay in supply for use hereafter.
But up to this time the prices have been
way up in the upper regions,-dry hard
maple, $3.50 per cord and oak about SIS.
These high prices will undoubtedly
have to drop considerably in the near
future, as some of the wood which was
ordered from below, several weeks
ago, is now continuing to arrive.
How many husbands are there who
can appreciate this story! A darkey
recently made application for a divorce
from his wife. When asked on what
ground he demanded a divorce, he ex.
claimed us follows: DE ground of
this occasion is sufficient enough.
When rented ten acres and worked
one mule married a woman suitable
for de occasion. Now I rent sixty
acres of land an work five mules. My
fust wife is a mighty good ten-acre
wife, but she don't suit dis occasion
Oh sixty acres. I needs woman who
can spread more.''
The Bird Island Post says wood
fight took place there on Friday, the
10Th inst. Three flat cars loaded with
wood arrived at that time, and the citi.
zens of the village together with about
so farmers from the neighboring coun-
try made a rush for the wood with their
teams, piling on their sleds and wagons
what they could get hold of without
waiting for the wood to be measured.
A citizen and a farmer came to blows
over one load, but the citizen got away
with the wood.

to be one of the best that has ever
been arranged by the Guards, The

intensely interesting and pathetic, and
cannot fail to please. The farce,

audience in fOar of laughter. The
evenings entertainment will conclude
with social hop. See the cast of
