-Elbert Day and Will Tryon went out
to Geneva Lake last week. They left home
Thursday afternoon and returned-well,
we do not know just when-we think
Saturday night They picked up thirty
two dead ducks and a wild goose. and
their friends decided it was two good days
for ducks.
1T must have been terrible state of
affairs, that caused the Psalmist to ask
"Who can stand before his cold?" In his
day the remedies were few and doubtful
how much happier should this generation
be, that has as a household remedy, DR.
Bulls Cough Syrup. So wonderful has
been its cures that millions rise up and
call it "blessed."
George Hume, whom many remember
as resident Of Austin for a time, not
many years ago, has recently married his
eldest daughter, Ida by name, to a Mr..
Wilson, Scotchman of high degree.
The twain were married Oct. 10Th at
Poughkeepsie, n. Y, and sailed for Scot
land. Her wedding gift from her husband
was only 100000.
Very tasteful wedding cards, with in
vitations to the wedding of their daugh-
ter, Kittie, were sent by Mr.. and Mrs. G.. G.
Clemmer of Plattsville, Wisconsin, to
several of their old friends in this city.
Stuart of that place. She was a sweet
and winsome little maiden of some seven
or eight years when she, with her parents,
moved from Austin. We hope heavens
brightest blessings may follow her.
| Dubuque has boys fraternity, the
members Of which are divided into four
classes. The first demands only pledge
against intoxicating drink, the second
adds tobacco, the third profanity, and the
fourth everything in the shape of vice or
crime. The oath of the latter class is
elaborate and terrible. Wish we could
! get the name of every boy and young
man in Austin for just such Fraternity.
How gladly we would help them.
| John Mathieson had several acres of
a new variety of wheat this year, which
yielded over 20 bushels to the acre, and it
is very plump and handsome. He OBJ
tanned the seed from Washington, through
Hon. NJ. H. Dunnell years ago 1t is
called the blue Stem"-and Lyman
Baird obtained some of the seed from the
same source, and reports like results.
Both of these parties will be able to sell
some of this wheat for seed next spring.
An event of great interest to our
dairymen, stock-raisers and farmers will
occur next December, 10, in the meet
| ing of the Minnesota Butter and Cheese
Association in this city. A large dairy
fair will be conducted in connection with
the meeting. Good speaking talent has
| been secured. Our business men have
| taken hold of the matter, and are plan
| ming literally for the meeting Railroad
fare will be reduced. Let there he large
attendance.
And now it is s. A. Smith, book
keeper for Engle & Co., who has been
caug ht in the meshes of the matrimonial
net. This happy event occurred last
Wednesday morning. at Spring Valley,
Burleson, by the Rev. F. B. Cowgirl. Mr..
Smith is a pleasant gentleman, and a
| straight forward and honest citizen. We
wish the young couple long lives, and
| abundant prosperity. They will board
this winter with A. FL. Loucks.
Our new court house is nearing COM
pletion. The main hall is finished save
| flooring and the paneling back of the
| judges desk.
A large corps of workmen are putting
on the finishing touches in the different
rooms. Already, amid the debris of work,
the interior begins to present very fine
| appearance, suggestive of comfort and
real enjoyment. The workmen claim the
work will be done near the first of De-
cember, but we think if they get through
by New Years they may be congratu-
lated.
| Mrs. D. A. Lord is again in the MILL
merry business in Austin and is now one
of the firm of Lord & Hetlen. Mrs. Lord
has been connected in millinery business
in one way and another in Austin
for about twenty years, and during
that time has made an army of
friends, and they will be glad to know
that she is again in business for herself.
The new firm occupy the Parry building
next door to theJ Zones block. and is conven-
! lent and accessible. We hope they will do
well, and success crown the efforts of this
new firm.
We have recently received a copy of
the american Newspaper Annual" 900
pages, for 1883, published by N. w. Aver
& Son, Philadelphia. 1t not only con-
tains the name, circulation and address of
every paper published in the United
States, but also vast amount of useful
information relating to the population.
To any one curious to learn the circula-
ton of popular journals or even local
papers in distant parts of the country, il
is invaluable. Some of these statistics
we hope to furnish for the information of
our readers at some future time.
