Horses forthe races next week are coming

Farmers in the east part of our county are
profting by the late rain, having already
commenced their fall blowing, for which
the ground was too dry previously.
The rain Of yesterday has given the grow

Earth county that would do credit to the best
efforts of Indiana and Illinois.
Hart the Mankato stopper, has gone to
Faribault to take part in the foot races. He

that popular frenzy to rid the country of this
new pest may take some equally violent
turn.
1t is big story, but nevertheless true, that

found anywhere else.

AHnndson,e Present

Maj. Thos Montgomery, of st. Peter, is
the worthy eminent commander of Mankato
Commandery, No. f., X. T. At the regular
meeting last night the sir knight took him
completely by surprise by presenting him
with an elegant bronze clock, valued at
about $40. He had just arrived at the asylum
been formally received and assumed the
duties of his Office when sir prelate G.. A
Chapman, with that grave and reverend
manner that so becomes him, arose, and d.
verting the commanders attention by some
general remarks about the practice of COM
memorating great events and worthy deeds
by the building of monuments and other en-
during objects, uncovered the clock which
had been placed npon the altar, and direct
ing his attention to it, told the commander
that the sir knights of Mankato commandery
bad selected this beautiful object as a pres
ent, to testify in some degree their appreci-
alton of his earnest, persistent and success
full efforts in behalf of that body. The en-
inent was wholly uuprepared for such an
event, all previous knowledge having been
kept from him. His manner and his Ian
guage in reply indicated his COM
plete surprise, anu also Tue uetp
earnest feeling that this kindly act
had aroused He said that it had been his
aim and desire to merit the good viii and
esteem of the Sir Knights of Mankato COM
mandery, and while he felt fully repaid by
the confidence manifested by repeated cleo
tons to positions of honor and respon sibility,
he now realized in this most generous and
gratifying manifestation that his wishes had
been fully realized. He would prize the
gift on this account, though its beauty and
value challenged his admiration. He spoke
further and with much earnest feeling.
and when he had finished the banquet, which
had not been forgotten, was announced and
enjoyed. We bet that dozen gold or silver
mines would not buy that clock from the
major, aud that there is not prouder man
