Your correspondent spent Friday of last
week in Hudson in attendance upon the
circuit court, then in session there. Hudson
is beautiful little city, charmingly situated
nthe east of st. Crox lake. had no time
to make an extensive inspection of the city,
but saw some very tine blocks and residences,
among the latter that of John y. Glover was
conspicuous. / had the pleasure of dining
with Judge Z. B. Bundy, who combines the
qualities of a most excellent judge with those
of a first class Democrat. | met that old
Democratic war-horse, Mark Fulton, on the
street and exchanged congratulations with
him. He is man whose political opinions
lave great weight in St. Croix county.
His views were sought by the tariff
commission of 1892 and are on record in the
report of that body. The genial Bashford
says: ave are on top and we propose to
stay"
Mr.. Yeomans, representing the daily
GLOBE, gave us call last Monday. He is a
genial, pleasant gentleman who will make
friends wherever be goes.
c. c. McCabe, of Hammond, for a long
time chairman Of the county board, was in
town Monday marketing his pork. He stands
up under the prospect of a Democratic adj
ministration with a good deal of cheerful
ness, in fact seeming rather to enjoy the
prospect of it. He SAYS: 'sWhen a man
right to enjoy it in any way he can when he
gets it," Judging by the way Chris enjoys
the election Of Cleveland we may feel sure
he is happy.
Father White, of Hammond, gave us call
Monday. He too sees cheerful outlook and
Frightening prospect under the administra-
ton Of President-elect Cleveland.
Mr.. George w. Scribner, OF Spooner, Wis,
the father of our popular merchant, has been
spending few days in town, the guest Of
his son. A native and former citizen Of
Salisbury, New Hampshire, he is imbued
with that spirit of Democracy that is as
rugged and enduring as the granite hills Of
his native state. He stands up under his
load of sixty years with remarkable vigor.
Tie rapid increase of business with Messrs.
Scrihner d Rasmussen necessitates the hiring
of nother clerk by them, and now Clarence
Pittman helps the bows behind the counter.
They are daily receiving large additions to
their complete stock, and their sales are
simply enormous
Byron Ayres came near losing all the fin
gers on his right hand Monday afternoon.
Standing near stave iointer in Messrs. Judd
d Allyn's mill, be placed his hand on the
his foot on the lever, and but for heavy
seal ring he was wearing, the four fingers
would have been taken off. He escaped
with a severe cut, however.
c. o. Dahl transferred his tailoring effects
from the rooms in the furniture store of s.
Larson to the DR.. Hamilton building Tues
day morning, where he will be pleased to see
patrons and any who desire first class tailor
ing done.
1t is astonishing to note what jealous ad-
herents of civil service reform
there are in the Republican party
s. ace the election of Grover Cleveland Even
this little hamlet has caught the infection
and we hear men advocating as measure of
success to the president elect strict atten-
ton to civil service rules. 1t is to be hoped
that President Cleveland will surround him
self with a coterie of advisors who are not
only friendly to the Democratic party but
will labor to make his administration a sue
cess.
Mrs. Karen Sangestad, wife of our es-
teemed fellow citizen and druggist, o. A.
Sangestad died Tuesday, at IL O'Clock noon,
of that dread disease consumption, from
which she has been constant and at times
near Thronhjem, Norway. in 1874, she came
to this country with her husband in 1870.
They settled in Baldwin, where they have
since resided. Mrs. Sangestad was a men,
Der of the Norwegian Lutheran church of this
town and devoted Christian lady, loved and
respected by all who knew her. A most ex-
emplary and devoted wife. kind and loving
mother, her loss is irreparable to her husband
If
The sympathy of the. whole community goes
out to them in their grief. She will be bur-
led this friday afternoon in the Baldwin
cemetery.
There is a very peculiar case here
which invites the attention of physician
and merits scientific investigation. 1t il
that of the wife of Jacob c. Nelson, who fol
the past ten years has been subject to attack:
of complete prostration. laying for hours and
days in a comatose state without evidence Of
life whatever. During these attacks, which
have been increasing in duration of late, the
body becomes rigid, the eyes set and staring
pulsation ceases, and but for an almost un
discoverable flutter of the heart, no evidence
of life can be found. The last trance-ii
such it can be called-occurred last week and
lasted from Monday until Friday. during
which time she took no nourishment and the
digestive and secretive organs were entirely
imperative. Her mind is very clear at suct
times and she knows every thing that takes
place around her, but she cannot move even
an eye lid. Sndden fright or over exertio1
brings on the attacks.
