Monday, on business, accompanied
by his partner, James Glennon Of
Fergus Falls. The bottling works

Chas. E. Hinman will have the
first water service pipe placed into

Mapleton, and are now correspond
ing with view to get fast stock.
NJ. I. Friedlander, accompanied

A special train went through
Wahpeton Tuesday afternoon from

ing up delegates to the Moorhead

sion at that place. The train was

B. c. Berg, the popular wood
dealer at the N. P. depot, has recent
ly found an overcoat about his wood
pile,supposed to have been left there
at the time of the fire in the wood a
few weeks ago. The owner may
have same by proving property and
paying for this notice.
The Fargo 6 Southern road has
been hauling gravel upon its line Of
road for two months, at an average,
probably, of 100 car loads Der day,
and will continue for month more,
placing the road in the finest sort of
shape. The recent wet weather has
given the operators some difficulty,
but this road. is sure to be one of
the finest in the country.
The circus the Fourth promises
to be extensive. Arrangements are
made for twenty-five performers at
the Headquarters and the same
number at the Merchants, and fifty
of the combinations people are
boarded at the tent. So it would
seem the present circus should show
up in pretty good shape. The circus
and Wahpeton's civilians join in
parade the morning of the Fourth.
The Misses Emily and Julia Rob-
erts of this city, departed last week
for a summers vacation among

here wish them much pleasure and
a safe return.
The ladies of the NJ. E. society of
Wahpeton will open two lunch
stands on the Fourth of July, one
at the law Office Of j. r. Buxton,
the other on the corner of Fourth
street and Dakota-ave. Parties liy-
ing out of the city will find it
equally as cheap and far more con-
venient to purchase their dinner
here than to bother to bring it with
them, as they can get what they
want and pay only for what they
get.

series Of questions Sunday evenings
put by members of the congregation,
having commenced last Sunday
evening, the first being, in substance,
why the varied opinions on religion
or spiritual welfare. The Rev. gem
tleman answered the question very
acceptably, we think. Showed the
different dispositions in mankind
and individual susceptibility, not
only in spiritual but all matters per-
tanning to human existence. And
closed with q fine argument show
ing that in the main points all
christianity fully agreed, just as
much as they agreed in the fact
that the sun was warm. It was
clever and instructive discourse.
The Rev. gentleman prefaced his
