The new Congregational church having
been furnished with gas, there will be the
usual evening meetings held.
Mrs. H. B. Stebbins, of Minneapolis,
mother of Mrs B. J. Hinkle, was yesterday
in the city, visiting with Mr.. and Mrs.
Hinkle.
The Jennie Hayes got back to the city on
Saturday evening, having been at Red Wing
with raft of logs. She leaves Sgain to-day
with another for the mills south of us.
The ladies of the NJ E. church will tonight
give reception in the parlors of the church,
and some of the culinary skill of the ladies
will be on hand 1t is a farewell reception
tor the pastor, who leaves tomorrow morn
ing for the conference at Duluth. All are
invited to attend.
Engineer O'Rourke, of the Wisconsin
Central bridge, informed US yesterday that
the last pier was above the caison, and any
rise in the water would not delay the work.
The stone work will he completed next week.
The iron work is making good progress, and
the bridge will be completed ON time. 1t
will be very handsome structure.
There are only three DRINKS in the city
hall for the justice mill this morning. Two
of the three drove away horse and buggy
which did not belong to them, and were
caught at it, while the third was not only
drunk but exceedingly abusive, and the
cooler was adiudged the best place for them
in which to cool off.
The closing services yesterday at the NJ.
E. church were largely attended. The Rev.
7. McClary preached both morning and
evening, and gave a synopsis of the progress
of the church since his taking charge three
| years ago. The reverend gentlemen is a
worker, and through his efforts, and of q
few others of his congregation. the society
is in prosperous condition. We trust that
Mr.. McClary will be as successful in the
next three years as he has been in the past.
The boat-house belonging to the rowing
| club got quite a capsize on Saturday night,
and the water is nearly up to the caves on
one side, while the other about has the pontoon
in sight. 1t will trouble them some to put it to
rights now. The club has been unfortunate,
not only from the lack of interest of the
members in the healthful amusement, but in
the removal from the city of some of the
most active members. We hope that pros
porous days await them.
DR.. Carroll delivered a lecture 10 the young
people of his church and the city from 1
| Thess. 5:22, "Abstain from all appearance
of evil.n There was a large congregation
present, and he considered the drama and
dance. This course will continue for several
Sunday nights, and judging from the interest
awakened last night, the theme will prove
one of great profit to those for whom it is
especially prepared.
During the past twenty-four hours the
lake has risen an inch an hour, and last
evening it was feet inches, more than a
| foot higher than the previous rise. The rise
has taken away considerable wood that was
piled on the lower part of the levee, and as
the owner of the wood lives at Osceola, no
one is trying to Save it. The part of the
levee just formed is nearly covered, but no
damage has been done to it. The rise In the
water will carry off much filth that was
around the shore, and will tend to ward off
any disease.
The musical entertainment given by the
Maennerchor society last evening in the
Music hall was well attended. The inslru-
mental music was of high order, while the
steal Germans know SO well how to do. We
will place our Maennerchor society here in
competition with any in the state, and are
not afraid of the result The applause given
was well merited. The programme was a
choice one, and we understand it will be pre-
sented again with some change. at an early
| date. The will have still larger audience
at the next as this was such success,
IT,
Christian association, will during the week
call on our citizens requesting aid for that
valuable institution, and we trust that all
will be ready to give willingly according to
their means. The object is a noble one. and
We greatly misjudge the people of Saltwater
| IL they allow ii TO go down for the want of
| needed support. 1t is now for them to say
| whether the reading rooms and library will
| be continued or not. Mr.. Eldred has the
work at heart, and he and the officers and
directors have borne much Of the burden.

by the police to move on, and he did so fol
