TERN r. r. EXCURSION
"A Great Crowd---Splendid Ride
Good Time Generally.

The NJ. & NV. r. r. excursion train
left Austin for St. Paul at o'clock
Thursday afternoon, after taking on board
about 100 Of the most prominent citizens
of Austin, not excluding the Sheriff.
Chief of Police, clergyman, and several
physlcians, in order that all possible ext
gencies might be provided for. There
were eight coaches on the train, filled to
repletion, and the number on board was
estimated at full 500. The weather was
suspicious, the track exceptionally
smooth, for new one, and the engine
powerful machine, so that the Is miles in
tervening between Austin and Dodge
Center were covered in about so minutes.
There We semained half an hour, until
we were met by some of the officials of
the road, together with committee from
the Jobbers' Union. of 81. Paul, by whom
We were escorted to St. Paul. arriving at
5 o'clock, making the SO miles in less
than 81 hours, which was exceptionally
good work. especially for new railroad.
Much of the country through which We
passed, notably Goodhue county and the
Canon Valley district, was perfectly
charming, with its undulating surface,
covered with pillows of wheat, set off to
farm premises and groves. On arriving
at St. Paul. the excursionists were taken
into carriages, no less than q hundred in
number, and carried all about the city, to
visit the principal points of interest.
At 9 o'clock a splendid banquet was
served at the Merchants hotel in honor of
the guests by the Jobbers' Union of St.
Paul. After the recipients had done JUS
tice to the feast, Gen. Jennison, as toast
master, called upon the parties designated,
to respond to various toasts embodying
sentiments complimentary to the mer-
chantlle interests of St. Paul.
The next afternoon the oxcursionists
departed on q special train for White
Bear Lake, where they took delightful
ride around the lake ON the steamer DIS
patch" Returning to st. Paul, they were
carried down to the new fair grounds and
returned. In the evening they were COM
plimented with tickets to the Grand Op-
era house. to hear Charles Gardner, the
celebrated personator of the German char
ecter of Karl the Pcdlar."
The excursionists were returned to
Austin Saturday noon, leaving St.
Paul at $50, and arriving at Austin at
1915.
The trip was an exceptionally fine one.
Everything combined to promote crea-
ture enjoyment. The splendid road and
equipage, in the shape of a powerful To-
connective and fine cars, was source of
constant congratulation.

IN hand to make all their arrangements to
come to Austin on the first day of the
fair, the 18th. as that is likely to he the
most eventful day in the list.
The St. Paul Dispatch has the fol-
lowing reference to the city of Austin in
connection with the MINI. s. NV. r. r.
excursion:
The city of Austin turned out nearly
one hundred strong. there being ninety
seven persons by actual count. They
embrace all branches of business and pro-
LESSONS. 1t would be difficult to find
finer or more intelligent body of men from
any city. Austin has been for years in
direct communication with St. Paul by
the I. s. NJ. division of the Chicago s. Mil
| waukee road, and many of her business
men have traded with our merchants, and
are better known than business men from
road. A Dispatch reporter had pleasant
interviews with number of the visitors
from that city in regard to business pros
poets. the condition of crops etc. Mr.. c.
D. Belden voiced the views of all who
| were seen when he said that Austin had
nothing to complain of. Business was
good and her business men prosperous
In regard to the crops Mr.. Belden said
the wheat crop was rather below the aver
age and would be about half crop com
pared with former years. The oat crop
was excellent. the yield being from 45 to 80
bushels per acre. The yield of barley was
| good. but discoloration detracted from
its value. Corn is simply immense.
Clover and timothy seed will be good
yield. The farmers of Mower county of
late years have been turning their atten-
ton to dairy interests. and do not rely so
much upon the wheat crop. There are
now three cheese factories and four
creameries in the county. all doing large
| business

On Tuesday of last week seven or
eight year old son Of Ed Mehers was bad
ly scalded by falling backward into tub
Of boiling water. The boy was badly
burned, but it is thought he will recover.
Fortunately there were but few quarts
of water in the tub, or the results would
certainly have been fatal.
Last week Tuesday, Rev. W. E.
Stanley of Austin conducted the funeral
services Of Mrs. George James of Mos
cow, at the house of her parents. Mrs.
James was we'll known and highly es-
teemed in her vicinity. as was attested by
the large concourse of people who attend
ed her remains to the grave.
Fall plow,ng is the next in order of
farm work: pillow an inch or 80 deeper
than last year; don't harrow but leave
the ground the way the plows throw it:

winter months tertilizes it and puts it in
suitable shape for the next years crop.

SPEAKING AT FRANCOEIA.


Correspondence oil the AlcNliltirlil ItAHETTEl
FRANCoNIA, Va, Sept. 25, 1SS5.-A large
number of the citizens of Mount Vernon
district assembled yesterday to hold 4 tour.
nament and basket picnic. The Hon. John
Randolph Tucker was invited to deliver an
address on the principles aud issues involy.
ed in the democratic cause that is now 50
dear to the hearts of ell true Firginians A
fine band was provided and large plat
form built, so the young people could con-
clude the amusements of the day with MT
sic and dancing. After a spirited and pro
tracted contest, the prizes of the tournament
"a handsome saddle and fine Bride
were won by the successful knights, and
the meeting adjourned to Galliard's grove,
where seats had been placed and a stand
erected. After partaking Of a delightful
lunch, prepared by the ladies of the neigh
borhood, the people eagerly collected to
hear Mr. fuckers speech. Mr.. Tucker was
introduced in short but beautiful address
delivered by General W. H. F. Lee The
speech, which occupied an hour and forty
minutes, was the most eloquent, forcibIe
and entertaining exposition of true, old
fashioned Virginia democracy ever heard in
this section of the country. His exposure
of the false claims set forth in the Malone
party platform and his arraignment OF the
waste and corruption that signalized
the acts of their Legislature and their State
officers, was telling in the extreme. He
closed, amid great applause, with beauti-
full appeal to the ladies present to see that
their husbands, brothers and beaus
did their full duty on the day of election to
secure the success Of our ticket.
After the political meeting was over the
coronation of the queen of love and beauty
took place, and the young people closed the
festivities of the day by dancing, which was
kept up to a late hour. FAIRFAX.
