ASSIGNEE'S SALE.
Sale of Ira Jones' Assets.

On Thursday of last week the real es-
tate and personal property, as per inven,
tory on file in the Clerk of Courts office,
was announced to be sold at 10 o'clock
|p m. Outside creditors holding about
$40, 900 in claims, were represented by q
MIR. Hawley, a lawyer from Chicago, A.
s. Phelps manager Of the Detroit Stove
Works, and Mr. Westphal, of the firm OF
Westphal, Kinds s. Co. of Dubuque.
When the hour of one arrived, the store
was opened, and the assignee, sheriff,
creditors, and some seventy-five or one
hundred people filed in. Judge Johnson,
attorney for the assignee here announced
that no bid for the stock would be receiv-
ed under "a 500, and $500 worth of Gid
den barb wire, which were commission
goods, would be exempted from the sale.
Deputy Sheriff Stimson asked for starter,
but no one was found willing to start il
at the figure named. So after waiting
about half an hour for something to turn
up. the sale was adjourned until Friday
morning, at o'clock.
The next morning, it was decided to
offer all the property in the inventory
together, and the bidding would be al.
lowed to start at 900. The attendance
was large, and there seemed to be several
perty, but were too anxious for bargain
to run up the bids. Finally Frank
Farmer of Spring Valley, bid $4,000, and
the deputy after waiting some ten
minutes for higher bids, declared the
property sold, Mr.. F. being the only
bidder. The property consisted of the
stock of goods, the notes and book &C.
counts, and all the real estate. The real
estate is so heavily encountered there is
not believed to be much equity in it.
The store is now in possession of Mr..
Farmer, and any one in need of hardware
will do we'll to call at the old stand of Ira
Jones and purchase at the very low rates
offered.

"A GOOD REPORT.-In the annual eX-
animation of the High School papers by
the State High School Board, for the
year ending July l, 1883, the Austin
High school appears to good advantage,
being third on the list OF SO schools. Of
1926 papers forwarded. 113passed or about
80 per cent. The average number passed
in the state was 81 per cent. OF the two
schools which made Il better report than
Austin, Henderson was a trit1e over 80
per cent, and less than 81 per cent, while
Pennington, the banner school, made a,
record of 50 per cent. This speaks well
for the high state of efficiency to which
our schools in Austin have attained, and
reflects great credit upon Prof. Rankin,
and the able corps of teachers which have
assisted him. We are informed that the
number of scholars in attendance this
fall is greater than ever before, and the
rooms are becoming crowded. A CON-
siderable number are attending school
from the country, and there promises to
be still greater increase us the cold sea-
son approaches.
HISTORICAL LECTUREs.-Our citizens
have in prospect a fine intellectual treat,
in course of historical lectures to he
given by Miss S. L. Stocking. Her lee
ture at the Congrcg ational church, Fri
day evening, on lessons from the Ages,
was a thoughtful discussion of the influ-
entail part played by each succeeding
epoch in preparing the way for our mod
crn civilization. She brought ont very
satisfactorily, the unity of sentiment and
action which marks the history of con-
|temporaneous nations, showing that the
wonderful events and acts which charac-
terized Bible history had their coun
terpart on profane history. She es
tablished very clearly lthe fact that, by
the study Of the events of past ages, we
might learn to secure our national future
by avoiding the errors, and cmulating the
virtues, of those who have gone before
us. There is usually tendency on the
part of the public to ignore the worth of
these historical studies by expecting and
seeking for that which is sensational and
evanescent. But to the truly intelligent
struction is invaluable. We believe a
course of lectures, atfording so much in
formation, and a higher kind of enter
tainment, at so reasonable rate, should,
and will be, literally patronized by our
citizens. Miss Stockings lectures, espec
tally, if continued, will afford those who
have had small opportunities for histori
cal study or who wish to review such
studies, fine opportunity to improve
their minds. In the absence of a regular
lecture course, Miss Stockings discus
sions may be accepted as a convenient
substitute, and prepare the way for a
higher order of entertainments than we
have of late been accustomed to.
Monday evening, at the Baptist church,
Miss Stocking lectured to a good audi
cnce on What the Spade has Revealed
in History" In this lecture, which was
very interesting, she gave numerous
instances where modern customs, politi-
cal morals and even inventions, had been
antedated for thousands of years by the
ancients. She will give the first lecture
Of the regular course next Friday even
ing in the Univcrsalist church.

unimportant ingredient, we drop the mislead-

60 miles an hour frequently. Mr.. Alder
son left England in 1910 with his wife and
after a short sojourn in the east, left
Perry, Wyoming county, New York, in
1871, with his wife and child for the west,
driving to Platteville, Wis, about 1000
miles, with horse and wagon. There
we're but a few short lines of railroad in
America then. Anderson drifted around
among the lead mines of Southern Wis
consin and Illinois for some years and
came to Minnesota in 1867, building the
first burr mill at Austin. He sold it and
put up the first mill at Otranto, then built
feed mill at Lansing, which he is now
running. He is engaged in the grain bus
mess at Austin, Hampton, and Lansing.
His first wife bore him six children and
died near Galena, Ill.,, % years ago. His
second wife was Miss Davy, great
grand daughter of Sir Humphrey Davy,
the eminent English scientist 1t is a
family tradition that Sir Humphrey built
a steam road wagon, which he tested in a
smooth, level field, where it soon got
away from him and ran through the fence
into another field, nearly frightening the
life out of a party of laborers there at
work. The Anderson family has acquired
fame for its pioneering attributes. a

son looks twenty years younger and is

Anderson relates that fellow passenger

to do light work on the road in return for
