Morris tribune., 1883-09-12
LOCAL NOTES.


our farmers have not finished stack !
ing.
Don't think Minnesota the coolest
part of the Union. Illinois has also
had frost.
II. M. Lowater is putting in pair of
scales on the west side of the track.
There will be use for them.
Another infant has arrived. 1t is
a girl and will hereafter be the guest
of Mr.. and Mrs. James Flynn.
Ala Crosse Business College edu-
cation saves many thousands times
its cost. See advertisement.
A. S. Brisbine recently purchased
one of the best double barreled shot
guns ever brought to this place. 1t is
beauty.
A. S. Brisbine has received letter
from home stating that his brother
Jimmy is much better and will before
long be able to smile again on his
many Morris friends.
Manure from some of the barns in
town is not being hauled away as
often as the Village ordinances de-
clare the work should be done. The
Board of Health should never rest.
Cogel & DeKay are agents for the
Norway Clipper plows. They are
made especially for use in this soil,
have been in general use for long
time and have given general satisfac-
ton.
The east side track of the Manitoba
road has been raised and the crossing
at the depot has been very much I'M
proved. The Manitoba company will
please accept thanks coupled with
request for further improvements.
The frost of last Saturday morning
did great amount of damage to corn
and to garden produce. 1t was both
general and severe. Often such heavy
frosts are not inflicted upon us until
October is we'll upon us. Mr.. Jones
loses about thirty acres of beans as
we'll as his fine field of corn. Inquiries
among farmers lead us to believe all
have suffered more or less.
An immense stock of new goods
has been received at Wolff & Wells
store this week. This mammoth double
store is now filled with a great stock,
and variety of goods, as has ever been
brought to Morris. This statement,
when it is known that Morris is noted
, for the immense stocks of goods kept
: by her merchants, is full of meaning
! 1t will be worth your while to call and
see these new goods.
+ The TRIBUNE would like to know
L when the public cistern On the corner
of Sixth st. and Pacific Ave. is to be
, completed. The hole has been there
for some time and is beginning to be
, something of an eyesore. 1t might be-
l we'll too get it ready for service for il
is possible that Pacific Ave. may be
afflicted with fire and be left without
f supply of water.
The business transacted at this de
pot for last month, is nearly twice a!
: large, as it was last year at the same
q time and we thought it was rathe
4 lively then. And from the way Sep
: TENDER has started off, it's business
will be largely in excess of that for thu
. same month last year. The bushes:
of Morris is now scattered over half {
$ mile of street, in different parts O
;, town, and large increase may eXis
e without being noticed.
? Tom Olson a blacksmith in Scandal
vile in July last sold out his entire
q effects to 60 into Dakota Territory. HI
travelled over it and through the
9 DEVILS Lake region for about six
: weeks, and has now returned to his
e old home, purchased new outfit O
e Good & Brisbine and is located fol
life. Hesaw no country as good al
. this and found no place that suited a.
a we'll as the one he had left behind
: him. 1t is dangerous to say Dakots
S in his hearing.
\ The Peerless Dramatic Compan,
S played "Our Boys" in Phoenix Hal
! last Friday night. They were detain
ed on the road and could not reacl
+ here for their engagement of Thursda.
, night. AS the entertainment was no
}. given upon the night advertised man.
e who would have attended were alb
;, sent and their audience was small
The entertainment was on the Who'll
o we'll received and we believe the com
= pany were entitled to much bette
e patronage than they received. TIL
l. Company went from Norris to Orton
vile.
IL A masquerade surprise party wa
y one of the pleasant events oflast even
= ing. A large number of invited guest
assembled at the residence of Mr.. an
/. Mrs. L. H. Stanton and others at tn

l. Moore. At about nine o'clock, afte
Z having completely masked themselve

n started simultaneously across the tn
Ii lawn in the moonlight surprised tn
- home of DIR. and Mrs. D. r. Suthel
# land and took the Inequalities of tn
E. place by storm. After time of dane
II ing masks were removed and refresh
Is ments were served. The visitors dc
IL parted at an early hour, having spen
most enjoyable evening.
