few days ago, without any din, MIR. Nels n.
Johnson, sent eight of his Scandinavian friends
to the old land. He accompanied them far
as Chicago.
The Blaine and Logan club are getting on with
| their organization. and drill will begin by the
corps in a few days Marine looks as if it will
beat them.
The water went up rapidly again the past
| twentyfour hours, rising over seven inches.
| The river above is rising, as the great rains for
the past couple of days has been general through
this section,
Policeman George Walters was on the rampage

| a warrant for his arrest.
The case of Hammond Sc Chestly VS. Durant
Anderson & Co. was concluded yesterday before
Judge McCluer. Col. Benton, of Minneapolis,
assisted Mr.. Gregory for the plaintiffs. while
Clapp & Mccartney appeared for the defendants.
Two well known residents of the city, and well
liked among the associates at the Duluth road,
loft g. - &c 81
that when Dennis Carney and William Nugent
return they will have taken to themselves better
ribs.
Some of the members of the fire department
have been getting new suits. They are very
handsome, and the silver buttons show well over
the dark blue cloth. Long may the boys be able
to wear them, and may they have no need to use
them at fires.
The police on Wednesday evening brought into
the station poor little waif, who they found
had been sleeping in a barn on the hill for the
past couple Of weeks. The little fellow has no
relations as far as known, and the police in a
quandary what TO do with MIN.
Yesterday was the greatest change in the at
mosphere that has been experienced for some
time, the thermometer showing over fifty de-
| grees of q change in twehty-four hours. The
heat was intense being up in the eighties, while
|
Every one was complaining of the heat, and
many were Frustrated.
| 1t was Savannah, merchant of Alton, and
Gillispie s. Harper, of this city, that stretched
| cable across the river at Alton. The farmers
brought over barge of wheat and thought they
could wash payment for bringing it to Alton, but
| Mr.. Savannah was a little too smart for them.
| The price of wheat is some eight cents bushel
more at Alton than Hudson.
Men are at work at mill sB,'' the Staples or
| st. Croix mills, making preparations for begin
| ming grinding as soon as it can be got ready.
This shows that the mill will be rum and that the
! big markets which Saltwater has always had for
wheat, will be again seen. All grain will find a
ready sale here, and will be manufactured on the
| spot, thus giving quite a number of men employ
ment.
We are pleased to see his holiness, W. S. Con-
rad. the well kept tobacco man of Saltwater at
home again. Con. has been making an ex-
tended trip north and west, and from the amount
OF goods he has been shipping lately, he must
have been driving big business. The crops in
the west, especially Dakota, have been very
| large, but the low price of grain makes the
| farmer look blue. However, they have the ma
terial that can be turned into cash. He is well
| pleased with the amount of business done, al
| though the collections are not up TO what they
should be.
The attention Of the street commissioner is
called TO the state OF the cutters on Main street
| They are uneven that after a rain water stands
in them, and when horses are standing near to
walks the flies torment them so that the horses
| splash the water and mud over the sidewalks as
well as over the clothes OF passers by. Yester-
| day one of our merchants had his large plate
| glass windows completely spattered with mud
/ and water, after having had one of his men give
| il thorough cleaning. The merchants are
using some strong expressions, and want to
| know IL the cutters TO be repaired. The
commissioner will attend to it, although he is
4 very busy.
Mr.. Geo. F. Sabih informs us that the Repub-
lieans of Marine held meeting on Wednesday
evening in Wards hall and organized Blaine
