Saltwater does not contain such vast
Touring mills as are found in Minneapolis
and few other places, but the milling in
terest here has become of vast Importance
to the people of this city, furnishing, as
it does, employment for a large number of
men. 1t also makes use of all the surplus
wheat grown in the vicinity, for which a
higher price is paid than could otherwise
be obtained if sold to thesspeculator. All
of the latest improvements in machinery
have been introduced in the mills of this
city, the Saltwater Mill company being
the second in the state to adopt the roller
system. They have now in use twenty-five
sets of the rolls, twelve known as CORFU
gated and thirteen smooth ones. This
mill has an average capacity of 400 bar
rels of -four per day. The two mills,
Florence and ST. Croix, are under the man
agement of Townsend & Co., and have
combined capacity of 700 barrels per day.
The long-talked-of masquerade ball, for
which such elaborate preparations were
made, took place on Thursday evening at
the Grand Opera house. The affair has
proved the great social eventof the season,
To the committee of arrangements much
credit is due for the perfect management
of all the details connected with the enter
tainment. As on all such occasions, some
of the characters assumed were well
sustained, both as to costume and repre-
sentation. For the purposes for which the
ball was given it has proved success. For
seats and dancing tickets s68250 were re-
ceived. What the expenses will amount to
could not be ascertained, as all the bills
have not yet been presented, but it is esti
mated the profit will be about $3.50
aside from donations. The music was fur
nished by the Great Union band, of st.
Paul, and was all that could be desired.
Certain pieces elected much praise from
the spectators. The fremen feel Justly
little elated over the success attending the
affair, and they take it as al expression of
good will on the part of the people of
Saltwater
