Mower County transcript. [volume] (Lansing, Minn.) 1868-1915, 1882-08-30

The evenings Of the past week have
been made beautiful and delightful by the
harvest moon. The explanation of this
moon is difficult, and we leave it for the
astronomy class in the high school. Its
distinctive feature, however, is the slight
difference between the times Of rising on
successive evenings. Usually the moon
rises nearly one hour later each evening,
but the harvest moon rises only a few
minutes later each night, and succession
of long moonlight evenings is the result.
This moon is so called on account of the
custom Of gathering the corn crop it.
Bulls & Beatty have opened res
taurant in the building next north of Cal.
Taylor's store. They keep we'll selected
assortment of confectionery and a full
supply of fresh fruits. Ice cream and
lemonade, as we'll as all the delicacies
commonly found in restaurant, are
constantly on hand. Meals are served at
all hours at a reasonable rate. Dinner
can be had any day for rs cents. A good
restaurant on Main street has long been
one of the needs of our city. These
gentlemen have established one, and it
should receive the support it deserves.
Step in and regale yourself with dish Of
their delicious cream, or try their good
dinners.
The militia company spoken OF in

Captain-J. s. Anderson.
First Lieutenant-H. W. Elms.

Fourth Sergeant-Edward Sterling,
Fifth Sergeant-Dwight Skinner.
No corporals were elected. The Off
GERS hold their positions for one year.
Adjutant General Hawley is expected
this week to muster in the company, and
it is possible that he will be accompanied
by Major Bobletter, The company now
has an enrolment of thirty nine, and
will increase it rapidly.
Our teachers are domiciled and set
tied for the year. Prof Rankin and his
sister will be cared for by Mrs. G. Z.
Hanson. Miss Fannie Knox will room
at L. G. Basford's and board at DR..
Squires'. Misses Packard and Smith will
occupy Mrs. F. Kings pleasant second
floor parlor, and will always be found at
the Mansfield House at meal time. Miss
Drake will remain in her old quarters,
and Miss Gertie Ellis will continue to
board with A. V. on the Evergreen farm.
Mrs. Short will receive her friends at
home near the school house, as usual
Misses Chandler and Little will be mum
bered among the guests of the Windsor
House. Mrs. Amanda Clark will very
likely reside on the east side near her
school, but where, we are not informed.
We take pleasure in publishing the
following deserved compliment for Rev.
GEMS, who was very highly esteemed,
both by his church people and all who
enjoyed his acquaintance while pastor Of
St. Augustine's church in this city:
The Rev. G. GEMS, pastor of the
Church of the Immaculate Conception,
has been transferred to Rosemount Faith
er GEMS came here from Austin six wears
ago, and during his residence among us
has proved himself a gentleman of many
sterlirg qualities, whose acquaintance it
was pleasure to make. Father Duffy,
the assistant priest, also sewers his con
nection with the church and goes to In
yer Grove. On Thursday evening last
reception was given to the two gentle
men at the residence of Father GEMS, by
members of their congregations; at which
purse of 500 was given to Father Gen.
is, and $25 to Father Duffy
Republican.
The Circus Royal exhibited in this
city last Friday. We were compelled to
go with the children" and we rather en-
joyed the performance. The animals
were few, but true and tried. The circus
might have been better, and the animals
more numerous. The street parade
might have been more attractive; but
disregard Of the truth could not possibly
have been more astounding. Many
things MISUNDERSTANDING to say-were
wanting; and even what was promised in
the ring by ticket agents was not all pre-
sented. In fact the closing concert was a
fraud, and it ought to be abolished at
once. Some parts of the circus perform
ance were excellent, and other parts very
poor. On the whole, the circus was an
average one, and not what it pretended
to be, first class.
Cut this out and go right over to CAL
Taylor's grocery house and ask him if the
TRANSCRIPT is correct in the assertion
that he has store full Of the finest teas,
richest coffees, and sweetest sugars.
While you are there, look over his canned
goods, dried fruits, and green apples, and
say whetheryon ever saw better or cheap
er. "Cal" is sometimes cross to his clerks,
because they keep the store so full of peo-
pie, and sell the goods so fast that he can
scarcely keep up his stock; but he will be
kind to you and show you anything in the
house. He thinks that people ought to
have good wholesome food, and dishes,
plain or esthetic, to eat from; and he sup
plies these at prices which will rest on your
consciences in the last great day, if you
do not buy. Pat-onize "Car and you
win get ali you pay for.
Although much of the exquisite deli
cacy of Remenyi's playing is necessarily
lost in the open air, the performance gave
great delight. His execution both in the
long andante and in the quick staccato of
the final movement was without flaw.
No violinist now in America possesses 50
perfect a reimbursement, clear and
true and of evenly beautiful quality. If
he lacks.the larger style Of the greatest
artists, within the limits of his own style
he leaves nothing to be desired. There is
never a tone exaggerated nor note mis-
placed. Warmly recalled after the con
certo, he played Schubert's Serenade, and
later in the evening gave the beautiful
cantabile amoroso of Paganini exquisitely.
