have concluded TO be one hereafter,
and Adam therefore obtained IL
cense last Monday, and they are by
this time tied-not by a beau-knot,
but by the holy bonds of matrimony.
Miss TAFT, the long looked for
sister OF Mrs. Potter, has arrived at
last. She has had long journey,
coming from London, Canada, and
has occasioned Mrs. Potter consider
able anxiety, by her tardiness in ar
riving.
We would like to have all delin-
quents to the FARMER, come and
pay up. There is no complaining
now, a. everything has brought a
good price. We need the money, and
hope that all will try and square up
their account with US.

The heavy rain Monday night was
quite a surprise 10 everybody. In
the evening it was cold enough to

siderable rain fell during the night

We have just received the two
first numbers Of the Mayville Eagle,
printed at Mayyille, Trail Co., d. T.,
by Mccormack & Kilbourne, editors
of the Casselton Reporter. The Eagle
is spicy paper, and will probably
soar high in the ranks Of Dakota
journalism. Success.
Shortly after the death of Mr.. Fred
Porter, Mrs. Porter sent us card Of
thanks to friends and relatives, who
so kindly gave helping hand when
they were in such extreme trouble,
but in some manner it got lost, and
we have neglected to publish it. We
do so now in justice to Mrs. Porter.
A ludicrous sccne was presented at
a certain chamber window not a
thousand miles from this village, one
night last week. If some of our
young husbands would sing ''some-
body is looking love, pull down the

more beneficial effect, than when rem.
dered in the parlor.
