Messrs. Hutchins and Hanson left
for St. Paul on Monday to attend
meeting Of the Masonic Grand Lodge,
Mr.. L. II. Wellington who is also
delegate from the Morris lodge. was
in St. Paul and attended the meeting.
Commissioner Hall was slightly
premature in taking his seat on the
board Of county commissioners at the
meeting held on January 1st His
term began on the first Monday in
January. As majority OF the old
board were present, however. it is
possible that the business transacted
was legal.
The school board at their meeting
on Monday, decided to dismiss all
pupils from outside the village. who
were not there during the last term
of school. This action of the board
was rendered necessary on account of
the over crowded condition of the
public schools, following the closing
of the catholic school.
Mr.. George Arden. OF the town of
Synnes, started for his home with a
load of wood from Norris, a week ago
ON Friday. lost his way. and left his
team, and reached Alarm House after
wandering for miles. over the bleak
iprairies; his condition when he arriv-
ed was one of complete exhaustion.
from which he has not as vet fully
recovered. The team was found next
morning all right.
Eli Perkins was introduced to the
beauty and wit of Morris, on Monday
evening, by our distinguished fellow
townsman and poet. the Rev. J. p.
Hutchinson. Mr.. Perkins held the
attention of his audiense. which was
a large one, for more than two hours,
and fully sustained General Buffers
delicate allusion to the lecturer, in
which he said that three of the great
est liars in the world, lived in the
United States. and that Mark Twain
was one and Ely Perkins the other
two.
The crowded condition of the pub
lie schools of this village, calls for
prompt measures of relief, the popu-
lation is increasing so rapidly, that the
erection of a new and large sized
school building on the east side of the
track is an imperative necessity.
School buildings be they ever SO cost
ly, are good investment, and are the
best evidences of an Intelligent and
prosperous community. We trust
that the school board will take proper
steps to give the people an opportun-
ity to express their views by calling
special meeting at an early date.
The Literary and Musical entertain
ment given at the congregational
church last evening, WAS largely at
tended and proved to be very enjoy
able affair. Mr.. Hutchinson favored
the audience with an original poem Of
a witty nature, and Miss kellng re-
cited very pretty poem entitled The
Gate The musical part of the enter
tainment was well received and gen.
erously applauded. Professor Van.
Camps cornet solo was the gem of
the evening. The ex ercises closed
with few characteristic rema ks
from Mr.. Hutchinson, after which
coffee and cake were served.

The notice of dissolution Of part
nership hetofore existing between
Messrs II. B. Wolff and II. II. Wells.
publ shed in todays issue deserves
more than mere passing notice.
The firm of Wolff & Wells is probably
better known throughout the sur
rounding country than is the town of
Morris itself. 1t is one of the Oldest
firms, if not the oldest in town, and
to the superior business qualities of
the firm. and correct knowledge of
the standing of all of their Gus. omers.
is due the success which Wolff &
Wells have accomplished. Both of
these gentlemen began life with mod
crate means, which together with
strict attent: on to business and proper
economy, have enabled them to be-
come wealthy. Mr.. Wolff still con-
tinues the business, AMI it can lie
safely predicted, that the success Of
the past will be multiplied in the
future.
Mr.. II. II. Wells retires from the
firm Of Wolff & Wells to enable him
to devote his entire time 20 the great
ly increasing business Of the Banking
House of which he is the head. The
success of the Stevens County Bank
requires no other guarantee for it's
brilliant future than that which the
name of its president gives it. As a
inancier Mr.. Wells has no superior,
and if in the future be should be
classed among the millionaries, it will
not be either by chance or luck, but
for strictly legitimate reasons.
Onthe 9th instant a j int meeting
of the synod and conference took
place at Ole Dahl's in Cyrus. There
were forty-fve persons present, all of

void. secretary. A committee of six,

tanned by facts and seem to have most
III their favor. The simp-
lest form OF these bodies is seen in the
telescope comets, which consist of
minute particles of cloudy or vapo-
rous appearance. Now, we know that
masses that present this appearance at
the surface of the earth, where we can
examine them, are composed of de-
tached particles of SOLID or liquid mat
ter. Clouds of vspor, for instance, are
composed of minute drops of water,
and smoke of minute particles of car
bon. Analogy would lead us to sup
pose that the telescope comets are OF
the same constitution They are thou
sands of miles in diameter, and yet the
smallest stars can be seen through
them. The strongest evidence Of their
constitution is afforded by the phenO-
mena of meteoric showers. The only
alternative to this theory is that the
comet Is a mass of true gas, continuous
throughout its whole extent. This
gaseous theory derives its main sup
port from the spectroscope, which
shows the spectrum of the telescope
comets to consist of bright bands, the
mark of incandescent light. He hold.
the gaseous theory to be unsatisfactory
Then he proceeds to say that the ques
ton, Why does this mass of vapor, the.
tally always fly away from the sunP Il
one to which science has not yet beef
able to return q conclusive answer.
