christmas day passed by in Austin in

Christmas day passed by in Austin in
it's accustomed way. There were many
Christmas greetings, and much of good
cheer we think in our city. Fine sleigh
ing gave our people splendid opportun-
ity for good ride, and the jingle Of the
many sleigh-bells was heard from early
morn till the midnight hour.
The Christmas concert at the Method
list Episcopal church last Sunday even
ing, with short sermon adapted to the
capacity of children by the pastor, was
attended by full house. The program
was excellent the music superior, and all
happy. Rev. Mr. Lathrop never has Sun
day School concert for show, but aims
to combine instruction, worship and
entertainment.
Last Thursday afternoon, Mrs. Mary
j. Barnes, as she was coming out of the
grocery store of G. w. Taylor, slipped
and fell breaking her limb twice between
the ankle and the knee. Mr.. Taylor
took the case Immediately under his own
supervision, and in less time than we can
write, physicians were called, and she
conveyed to her residence near the Catho-
lie church, where all possible was done
for her comfort.
Our young friend, A. H. Tisdale,
who formerly lived with the Warmers in
this city for long time, called to see US
Friday last. He is running two hay pres
ses at Rose Creek this winter. He is a
deserving young man, and we are glad to
hear is doing well. He pays SIS per ton
for good timothy hay delivered at Rose
Creek station. He expects to keep the
presses running all winter.
The railroad war ended! but not so
with the sales of cloths and handsome
suits made to order at Henry Jacobs
clothing store on Main street. Mr..
Jacobs has complete line of cloths, a
tailor whom he warrants can give per-
feet fit, and entire satisfaction. You can
not fail to be suited with his fine line of
cloths of the latest patterns, so call and
select for yourself, have your new suits,
made to order, and you will find yourself
fitted to ''T," and satisfied beyond
doubt.

sofa House of Representatives. DR..
Plummer, Burdett Thayer, and all friends
of brave and reliable Union Soldiers, will

ton in 1852, served three years. and was

not pensioner, and never before asked
for an Office David c.. Sanborn ought
to be elected. and we believe he will be-

We indorse the above testimonial
most cheerfully and heartily.
The preparations for the art exhibit
are prospecting finely. Mrs. Holway's
large class, numbering nearly fifty pupils,
will place upon the walls of her studio
some very tasteful and meritorious pro-
auctions, and we hope this class, Austin's
first class in Art, will receive from our
citizens the encouragement justly their
due, and full appreciation of their first
efforts. The exhibition will open We'd
nesday evening, Dec. 9th, continuing
through Friday. The proceeds will be
given to the Natural History Society Of
the Austin public school.

| Minnie w. Patterson was married to
J. r. Martin on Christmas morning, by
Rev. R. G. Spafford. 1t was quiet we'd
ding, at the residence of the brides faith
er, w. w. Patterson, but few friends
being present, yet full enough to make
the occasion very pleasant one, and to
wish the bride and groom world of hap
piness and life of prosperity. The cere-
mony was at ten o'clock. The bride was
lovely in an elegant silk of the rich ruby
color; their wedding gifts numerous,
among them fine organ, the gift of her
father. The bride has lived and grown
up among us, and will be missed not only
by the home circle, but by many other
Austin friends. Mr.. and Mrs. Martin
took the noon train for Minneapolis,
where they will spend few days, and
will then 60 to their home in Portland,
Dakota, where the best of wishes of Aus
tin friends will follow them.
