Tie case of the State of Minnesota
s. john Walton, which is how on trial

The case was taken up yesterday morn
ing and will probably last until noon
to-day.
While /. Hazlett and Jas. McNair,
of Verndale, were coming to Wadena
to-day. in 4 two seated buggy with NJ.
Stewart and Il. G. Kelley, Mr.. Hazlett
and Mr.. McNair; sitting chi the back
seat, were thrown out Of the buggy by
it's ruiininE oveE a rough piece of road
about ono mile this side of Verndale,
and the seat breaking loose FROM the
buggy, they struck the groQtia ON the
back Of their heads and shoulders and
were nearly stunned. They recovered
sufficiently 50 as to ride Oh to Wadena,
but when they arrived here they were
pretty badly played cut. Drs. Rounds
and MorreH Who were in town were
Immediately called on their
arrival and made an examination of
the parties. We Believe no banes were
fouhd broken. 1t was a narrow es-
capeland they will probably feel the
effects of the fall for some titne.~
The resigiiatiion of NJ. l.. vining as
Captain Of the Wadsna Light Guards,
was rendered to the company last even.
ing. Mr.. Winning made short speech
in which he stated that owing to bis
having been appointed Assistant Supt:
Of the n. p, F. h B. III. r. r., he
would be Obliged to- move to Fefgts
Fails; and It would therefore be I'M
possible for him to act rs Captain of
the company. 4 vote was then taken
for Captain and A. i. Irwin receiving
the greatest number of votes, was de.
clared duly elected. As Mr.. Irwin
was First Lieutenant, a vacancy was
again created and a ballot was taken
for First Lieutenant, and H. A. Hutton
was unanimously elected. A vote %
thanks was then rendered to Mr.. Vim.
ing for the able AID untlrlng efforts
that he had manifested in drilling and
helping to rear the company from its
infancy, and also for the great interest
that he seemed to take in the welfare
Of the company. Three cheers were
then given to the x.Captain, and also
to the Captain elect and to the new
Lieutenant. the company then
marched DIP town where cigars were
set tip by the newly elected officers.
We are sorry to lose Mr.. Vining as
he has taade the company faithful
officer, always being readt to do any
thing possible for the welfare of the
company. Mr.. Irwin, the newly
elected Captain, is man greatly re-
spected by the members of the COM
pany and will no doubt make an ex-
csllent officer, aha enc that will re-
ceive the cooperation of the other
officers and members of the company.
The Woods & Bl1ck crean!ety locat-
ed just southeast of the village is now
of full operation and turning out about
$50 pounds of gilt-edge butter daily.
The cream is gathered every other
day from radius of half dozen
miles, and in the hands ola skillful
butter-maker is converted intoan ex.
;ellent article which finds ready sales
at the very top of the market. The
building is fitted with every conven
:iehce, ana tie immense churn, capable
Iof making six hundred pounds of but
ter at one time, is done by steam. A
large cooler regulates the temperature
of the cream for churning, bringing it
to the even temperature of SO degrees.
The company pays fifteen cents per
inch for cream one inch being equiv
alent to one pound of butter.
We clip the above from the Sank
Centre Herald in regard to the cream.
cry at that place: It seems to us that
such an institution would pay in Wa
dena. 1t would certainly be great
advantage to the farmers in this
vicinity as it would save them the
expense and trouble of converting the
cream into butter: ii a creamery
will pay in other places we can not
see why it would not at Wadena. The
country around Wadena is quite
thick|y settled and our farmers are
keeping good many COWS, and if
such an institution was started up
they would keep more. There is
money in it for some one. Who will
be the man to make the start?
