JH. Moves of Hancock was in town

J. III. Noyes of Hancock was in town
looking at the sights on Thursday.
Mrs. Edwin J. Jones Jr. Of Morris,
started for Wisconsin last Thursday,
upon visit.
George Reisdorph, Mrs: III. B.
Wolffs' father, is here on visit from
Browns Valley.
Dr. Brisbine and wife. who have
been here on visit to their son A. s..
Brisbine our worthy mayor.
L. E. Waters of the Northwestern
Manufacturing & Car Company, STILL
water, took his departure last We'd
nesday.
G. w. Comstock of the Hancock
Olive Branch, was up to Morris this
week, long enough to get square
meal or two.
J. Berkin is back from Milbank
where he has built a billiard hall with
six tables, showing he has the capacity
to run towns in that line.
Jack Met ollongh, is down from Her
man, and says the wheat in that vi
cinity, and in the north part of this
county is perfectly splendid"
A Deadwood correspondent calls
the attention of st. Paul business men
to matter that is certainly worth
serious attention. 1t is claimed that
with slight trouble almost the entire
trade of the Black Hills could be
turned over the Northern Pacific, and
SO into st. Paul. Men claiming to
know say that the distance
between Deadwood and Dickinson
is but 100 miles /: that the
expense of a good wagon road be-
tween these points would be but small
and that a railway could be con-
structed at an outlay of not more
than half the cost of construction
from either the Misrouri or the Union
Pacific. Considering that 100000
pounds of stores were shipped to the
Hills last year, to say nothing of the
industries thatare constantly demand
ing an outlet to the worlds markets,
there is certainly enou Oh in the sug-
gestion to merit careful consideration.

Cyrus Allen has gone into the dray-
ing business upon his own account ;
his team will always be found upon
the street ready to attend to any
hauling which is to be done by dray.
Mr.. Allen is a safe reliable man and
worthy of a good patronage.
One evening this week, hunting
party returned INTO town with one
hundred and sixty-nine chickens.
This is nothing less than wholesale
slaughter, and one the sporting fra
turnity should not indulge in. AT this
rate, it will be but short time, when
there will not be one chicken left to
tell the tale Gifts needlessly slaughter
ed tribe. For PHYS sake holdup little
young Nimrods, and not annihilate
all your sport in one season, as you
appear to be doing now.
Liberal subscriptions are being made
all through the state to the Rochester
cyclone sufferers. If any one has a
heart for the unfortunate, now is the
time for opening it for the benefit of
those unfortunate people. Many of
the poor are without food, clothing or
place to rest their heads, and this is
time when every one should be as
liberal toward them as possible. AMI
humanity demands that none of the
dead should be forced to bear the con-
tumely of being buried at the expense
of the local government, no paupers
lot should be theirs.
We ought to have a wool carding
machine, if we expect the farmers to
raise sheep. Many of them can spin,
and weave their own cloth, and they
should have ample opportunity to
pursue this line of industry, in the
long winter months, when they have
no other work on hand. In other parts
of the state, they derive quite a rev.
enue from this source, besides what
they require for their own use. 1t is
not so much money community
makes that enriches them, but rather
what they retain for home circulation.

CHRIST HAS RISEN.

The following original lines forming the
conclusion of the Rev. j. p. Hutchinsons
discourse on Sunday morning last are repro
duced that those who desire may more per-
preserve them.
Christ has risen, lei me read 1t.
For this heart of mine doth need 1t,
Need the word divine to shew me
/ shall know and loved ones know me
In the land beyond the river
In the sweet and fair forever,
Let me hear again the story
Earnest of the future glory.
Christ has risen! let me know 1t,
In my life-work let me show it,
Dead to all mere worldly strife,
Living to all heavenly life,
Dead to sin-alive to duty
Waking to a life of beauty,
Knowing am not forsaken
Christ the sting from death has taken.
Christ has risen! let me teach it;
Christ has risen! let me preach it;
Christ has risen! let me live 1t,
AS an heirloom let me give it;
Something it's while here we wander,
That will make our life the grander,
Death no longer keeps in prison,
Those who know that Christ has risen.

to date, there have been cancelled 13l

The Firemans Ball has been post

There should be a general turnout and
an effort made to give the boys solid
lift. We have two Fire Engines, and
two Fire Companies, and the citizens
of the town cannot give them too much
encouragement. All our business men
who may be unable to attend, should
purchase ticket, and that will answer
the purpose as well.
We have it from reliable sources
that the amount of wheat acreage in
the vicinity of Hancock, is much
smaller this year than last, but that
there will be twice as much raised
this season as last. That one field
after another is yielding twenty-five,
and thirty bushels to the acre. We
think there can be no doubt of this
crop being at least one-third larger
taking the county through, than the
last.

A. Story of the Late Potter Cooper.

Mr.. Cooper was always q careful and
prudent business man. He was strongly
opposed to the methods OF many mer-
chants. who launched out into eNtrava-
CANT enterprises on borrowed money for
which they paid eNorbitant rates of in
terest. Once while talking about a pro-
ject with an acquaintance, the latter said
he would have to borrow the money for
six months, paying interest at the rate
of 8 per centum per month. why do
you borrow for So short Il timer Mr..
Cooper asked. Because the brokers
will not negotiate bills for longer"
We'll, if you WISH" said Mr.. Cooper,
