Misses Minor and Blodgett, Of our high

high school, in order TO compare the work
there with what is being done in this city.
They were well pleased with their visit.
The attendance last evening at Salsbury's
Troubadours, at the Grand Opera house, was
not as large as the excellence of the play
merited 1t was full OF fun from beginning
to end, and the situations were well given.
Yesterday the board of audit were at work
looking over the treasurer's books, which

Bronson, of the county commissioners,
County Clerk Bennett and County Auditor
foley counted the cash.
AT the municipal court yesterday morning
there was only one case of drunkenness, on
whom sentence was suspended. A case of a
JOuuH lIdn hllO WIS ttlcDIdbluS but GlCCllOu
by shooting off firearms inside limits was
dismissed, the occasion almost warranting
his exuberance.
Yesterday morning considerable guam
tity of material arrived for Mr.. Rice's sweat
pad factory, which will be soon running.
This will be a valuable addition to the bust
ness interests of the city, and we have no
doubt that Mr.. Rice will be successful in the
enterprise. These sweat pads have to be
used, and his fastner has no equal In the
market, so that wherever they are seen,
dealers will buy no others.
The Northwestern Manufacturing and Car
company employed on the 9Th day of Novem-
Der 300 citizens and 294 convicts in their
different shops, and money being so string
ent the officers find it hard work to raise
money to pay the force they now have. We
would be pleased to see more citizens and
fewer cOnvicts employed, but under the cir
cumstances we cannot see that Receiver
Brown can do any better than he is doing.

The most successful goose hunt yet had on
this lake was made by party on the steamer
Ben Hersey yesterday morning. The party
consisted of A. C. Hospes, Geo. D. Hall,
Chas. A. Staples, C. P. Gregory and Sam
Register, and they brought in twenty-six
geese and five ducks. The steamer Cleon,
which was going to st. Paul with barges in
terferred somewhat with the sport, as she
was ahead of the Ben Hersey, and they could
hear the flocks rise. Many of them came back
and the result to the hunters was most graft
lying. We know they were of first class
quality, as we had the pleasure of sampling
them. The hunters are deseryedly elated
over their successful hunt.
Yesterday the arrivals at the state prison
were large, Winona and St. Louis counties

The Winona prisoners are Richard Rogers,

McCamlev, manslaughter in the second de-
gree, five years; John Rudolph, incendiar-
ism by setting fire to grain, one year; and
E. Bragden, larceny, two years. The St.
Louis quota consists of Samuel Coleman.
robbery, three years; John Horigan, larceny,
two years; and Geo. Curtis, assault, eight
months. The prison now has more convicts
within its walls than at any previous time,
the number being $40. There are number
of short term prisoners that should not be
sent to the state prison, but to some central
prison where the stigma of being a convict
would not attach to them. No one whose
term Of Imprisonment is less than eig hteen
months should be sent to Saltwater.
