GRAND MEADOW.

Corn has made great progress during the
past week.
The foundation is being laid on Mr. Pier
sons lot, corner of Main street just north of
the depot, and the Brown House will be moved
upon that corner as soon as the necessary
work is completed.
Fred Wilbright met with quite a serious
accident Tuesday. By some cause unknown
to the writer, he was damned in between a
mower and wagon in the field, and two ribs
were broken. DR.. jackson was at once sum-
mOned and attended to the wants of the in
jured man, who is doing as well as can be ex-
pected.
-Olans Ed. Loe, son of 0. E. Loe of this
place, who has been attending Phillips Acad-
envy at Andover, Mass, for some time past, is
to leave that place for Yale College. Mr.. Loe
passed successful examination at the Acad-
envy by an examiner from Yale College, and
will therefore resume his studies at that place.
His many friends in this vicinity will wish
him success.
Monday evening the young men of the
village met at the band room and organized a
base ball club. 4. J. Grimes was chosen cap
tain, and Ed Sorben secretary. The following
are the names of those chosen for the first
nine: r. ]. Grimes, Homer Pierson, Ed Sor-
ben, Frank Knox, Sam Loe. Ole Hawkins,
Joe Jorgens, Levi Hunt, Clayton Joslyn and
"Old Slim.''
Last Saturday night burglars entered the
blacksmith shop of Peterson & Grimes, and
took from their safe an iron drawer. in which
was locked $l2333. This firm are dealers in
agricultural implements, and also had notes
in the safe to the amount of about 81 800,
which were also taken. 1t appears that they
neglected to lock the safe Saturday night,
which made it an easy matter for the thief to
accomplish his design. Evidently the robbery
must have been committed early Sunday
morning, as Mr.. Peterson was busy at work in
his barn adjoining the blacksmith shop until
after one o'clock.
Itappears to US that the theft must have
been committed by some one who was &C.
quainted with Messrs. Peterson & Grimes's
business, and also where they kept their
money; for surely no stranger in planning a
scheme of this kind would think of breaking
AS this is time of year when tramps of all
grades are, roaming our country, it stands
not only the business man in hand, but also
every citizen, to keep their houses we'll locked
and secure from this Internal class.
As we go to press we learn that the notes
have been found by some small boys. near

THE bark Isabel is expected at Tacon

THE bark Isabel is expected at Tacoma
this week. She is loaded with two thou
sand tons Of tea consigned to St. Paul.
Chicago and New York. The consignors
are Frazar & Co.. the Northern Pacific's
agents at Yokohama. 1t IS estimated
that the tea will load ten tons to the car,
which will necessitate the use of two
hundred cars. These will be run in
special air-brake trains of twenty cars
each, making ten trains In all. 1t is
probable that the trains will double be-
tween Helena and Glendivc and between
Mandan and St. Paul, as the grade be-
tween those points will permit of such
heavy trains. The trains will be run
thxough as specials, and upon time card
prepared especially for the occasion.
The time to be consumed in the trip will
he something less that IT'S hours. This is
the first tea shipaeAt undertaken by the
Northern Pacific. and if the experiment
proves success. and there 10 every indi-
cation that it will, regular line OF sail
boats between Tacoma and Yokohama
will be established. When the trade has
been built up to such proportions as will
Justify it, the Northern Pacific company
will put on line of steamers.

grand old trees, each looking as if it had
fresh coat of varnish and embodying
every hue in the kingdom of green shades,
the mountains covered with pine and
other forest trees, the pretty fields and
! comfortable homes-all were equal to my
brightest dreams.
But after leaving Sacramento, where
we stopped for dinner, the sun came
down hotter and more direct than on
Minnesotas most torturing days, the
wind blew hurricane, and the dry coun-
try was put into the state of a Sahara
sand storm. This lasted all the p. M,
and when night came the most dense fog
arose from the Pacific. In the morning
everything was wet. and that kind of wet
which makes one stick to everything he
touches. This was the weather when in
crossing the San Francisco ferryI looked
to the west and saw the Pacific. 1t might
just as we'll have been cabbagebed for
all that could see Then came the
thoughts which draw peoples faces down
and stir up fog somewhere besides in
the Pacific. and the thoughts. What did l
! come for? What am I to do? I hate
this weather and if this is the Golden
State" take me back to the Potato
State" and let me stay there. But when
we had crossed the nine-mile ferry we
entered the Sonoma Valley, and of all
beautiful places ever saw this seemed
the loveliest. Icannot describe it, for the
clock has struck twelve" and my ideas
have struck zone" Enough to say it is
my home, and if am not happy never
shall be. The thought that you are all so
far away and that put you SO, leads me
to look at your pictures often.

Col. j. II. MANSFIELD Of this city. has
had published the following card to the
bosses, Messrs. Kelly and Doran:
On the 22d of April addressed letter
to the St. Paul Globe, asking that paper
by what authority P. II. Kelly and
Michael Doran assumed the right to say
who was competent to fill the different
offices of this state. Let me say to the
Democrats of this state that P. H. Kelly
and Michael Doran have never secured
from the President any such authority.
and it is an assumption of power not
fairly delegated to them. The Globe re-
fused to publish the letter. I now ask
Of the Pioneer Press. Minneapolis Tribune
and all papers of this state to publish this
article, TO show all the citizens of Austin
are not subjects of P. H. Kelly & Co.
We know our rights and will protect them.
One word to p. II. Kelly: England has
no rights to Ireland, and you have no
rights to assume power over this city in
the selection Of postmaster or any other
offices. In conclusion. I say, fight for
the freedom of Ireland. but slet the citi-
Zens Of Austin regulate their own affairs.

Only Fraction OLIVES.

How many persons live only a fraction of
average human life because they neglect to
take the commonest precautions against
sickness. 1t is disease in its maturity that
kills, and maturity implies growth. A slight
1ndlsposltlon is usually slighted. They who
tiers know it to be eficacious in chronic cases
OF disease, but the process of cure Is far
easier one If it is used in the early stages OF
constipation and liver arrangement. Let
those who would avoid the peril which even
the most potent remedies cannot avert, steer
clear of the rock upon which 80 many constl-
tut1Ons spllt--an under-appreciatiOn OF the
danger of neglect. 1t will not do to omit
care and recourse to medicine when health
Is affected. If debilitated, or nervous, or
dyspeptic take it for granted you are in want
of remedy. Use the Bitters.
