The state river commission of Mime
sofa has sent out the following circular
of invitation supplementary to the call

vention, to be held in ST. Paul, Sept. 3,
copy of which is herewith enclosed, We
beg leave to call your special attention
thereto, and in behalf of his excellency
and the state to supplement the call with
the earnest wish that your city may be
fully represented in this convention. The
possible results of the movement are of
such immense Importance to the people of
the northwest that it is proper that all of
its people should heartily join in it, In
order to insure the success of the conven-
ton, it is only necessary that delegates
come fully prepared with such statistics
relating to the commerce, means of trans
porta.ion, ETC., of the various states, ter
ritories, districts and cities, as will show
the exact situation and demonstrate the
great need of relief, by means of cheap
transportation and improved water routes.
1t is no part of the purpose of this con-
vention to organize or create the slightest
antagcnism, through liberal appropria-
tons, to any section of our country, but
simply to formulate our own case for pre-
sentatiOn to congress, in the hope
that that body may be induced to vigor>

where no commercial bodies exist, to APP

case you propose TO send delegates notice
of the fact be sent at the earliest convent
ence, in order that proper arrangements
may be made for their accommodation
As soon as the selection is made please

been arranged. but it is hoped that every
delegate will come prepared to stay until
the whole subject matter has been fully
digested and plans for future action ar
ranged. An attempt will be made to se>

ILLINOIS CITY, Aug. 10


On FRIDAY night of last week at the
hour of midnight store building belong
ing to J. M. Carlisle, and occupied by J.
Leqnatt & Son, grocers, was discovered
on fire An alarm was given, which
aroused the people from their slumbers
and men, women and children came
tlOcking TO the scene. Strenuous efforts
were made to extinguish the fire, but in
the absence of anything but buckets with
which to work they were of no avail.
The flames had control of the building
and it very soon yielded to the consuming
elements and nothing of value was saved
Mr. Lequatt carried an insurance on his
goods which covers his loss, but the
building was uninsured The fire is sup
posed to be the work of an incendiary.
Grant memorial services were held on
Sabbath and Sabbath evening under the
auspices of the William ]. WylIe Post, G.
4. K. The Rev Mr.. Murdoch delivered
an Grafton in the morning to an unusually
large audience, and the Rev. Mr.. Brink
in the evening. The church was very
tastefully draped in mourning and the old
flag remained at half mast during the day.
A festival at the NJ Z. church is on the
taps for next Wednesday evening the
proceeds to be used in defraying church
expenses.

River vs. Rail.

The upper Mississippi river boat lines
have been cutting rates on freight to los
cal points along the river from Is to %
per cent during the last four weeks to the
almost total exclusion of the railroads in
competitor for the business at local pool
points. The commissioner some time ago
authorized the roads to make rates to
meet, but the reduction has reached so
low figure as to bar the rail lines from
the field. An effort will be made to in
duce the boat lines to increase their tariff,
but there is not much prospect of their
being persuaded to make that move.

Mauds ConQuests

Ever since the days when Adam, in his
innocence, was pulled off the track by
Eve, woman, handy and vixenish as she
is, has been to man more or less of de-
fusion and snare. Innumerable instances
could be quoted from sacred and profane
history alike to substantiate this statement.
Now word comes from bucolic Milan
Milan by the river ROck-that the domes-
tic felicity of several hearthstones are in a
state of chaos by reason of buxom form
and head of fiaxen hair, of which Maud
Terry, the dizzy damsel who caused such
a commotion in this city lately, is the
happy possessor Rumor hath it that
Maud has been extremely active
in making mashes ON the susceptible
male population of Milan, until the do
nestle trouble previously mentioned has
cropped out. 1t is said that lawyers have
been consulted and that divorce suits are
imminent. If this is true, and Maud has
been the instrument to stir up all this
ruction, she should be hustled out of
town as fast as possible

An Eccentrlc Yankee

On the Cannon ball" train east this
morning was an eccentric individual of
Yankee blood, whose apparent aim was
to appear as much like the imaginary
cartoons of Uncle Sam" as possible. He
wore high white hat, with heavy blue
band a swallow tail coat, and striped
pantaloons with straps beneath his high
heeled boots. He seemed totally uncon-
cerned of the criticisms and comments
passed upon him as he strutted about the
station.

leading nine of the state Four games
were played last week with the Denver
nine, and the Pueblo's came out victori
GUS in each Much of the success of the
nine is attributed to Sage and Anderson.

theatre for one week, commencing Aug
10th, of the Mortimer & Weaver Star
Dramatic company, the same which won
the appreciation and approval of our
amusement lovers in June. The compa-
nv comes back after the summer vacation
strengthened in many respects, though
retaining Mr.. J. W. Burton, the dialect
comedian, and the other star actors.
