John Snyder Dead.

Last week Tuesday the late John
Snyder, of Lake Benton, we'll known
not only in Marshall, but throughout
western Minnesota and eastern Dakota,
was relieved from long suffering by
death, at the age of about 6fty-seven
years. He leaves a widow, daughter
grown up to womanhood, and five sons,
whose ages range from five to twenty
years.
Mr.. Snyder came from Grand Rap
ids, Wisconsin in 1871, buying what
was known as the old Tom Bamber
farm in Lake Benton. He was the
original owner of the Lake Benton
TOWNSHIP, and gave the railroad an in
terest therein to induce the present
location of the town. He had since
been actively engaged in stock raising,
his farm embraced 900 acres, and by
industry and good management while
there he was quite prosperous, leaving
an estate and property valued at up
wards Of $4,000.
Formerly he was pilot on the Wis
consin river, and regarded as the best
man in that service. He was active in
all his interests, and honorable to a
notable degree, his word being as
good as the bond of any man. He
was made mason in the Marshall
lodge.-The Neaos Messenger.

Mr.. Thos. Smith, of Wausau, was
in the city last week to look over the
ground and see what could be done
here with foundry and machine shop.
We are informed that he wishes to
come here, buy suitable lots and erect
a new brick building about 3Ox70 feet
and put into it some six thousand dol
lars worth of machinery. While he
does not ask for any bonus, the feeling
developed in favor Of the move was so
marked that paper was circulated to
raise money enough by voluntary sub
scription to present him with the
ground free if he will come and start
his works. We believe half enough
was subscribed before night to accom-
plish the object. Mr.. Smith returned
home this morning but the subscription
will be extended, conditioned on his
coming.-Portoge Register.
It will be remembered that two or
three weeks ago Mr.. Smith spoken of
above was in this city trying to pur-
chase the Patrick & Mahoney machine
shops. This firm held their price out
of his reach, or what be considered the
property worth, so he contemplates
erecting building and starting new in
Portage. Mr.. Smith is a very fine
man and We are sorry that arrangements
we're not favorable to his starting
here.

in the Boston Block at 1890 to-day,
engines are all at work, men moving
their effects out through the windows,
general confusion prevails and some
half wild with excitement, as on all
such occasions. It is one of the finest

occupied by the post Office and Miller
Bros, the latter will lose heavily.
The contents of the post Office is
nearly all out, so that no mail matter,
or valuables will be lost, some broken
furniture and fixtures is all.
The fire was under control between
3 and 4 O'Clock and now is nearly out
It is said that Miller Bros, on the
first floor will lose 100000
Seven offices on the End floor will lose $4,000 SS

Some removed their effects and lost
but little. Nearly every room in the
block was occupied and were some of
the finest offices in the city, the law
library was one and worth $25, 900.
1t is estimated that individual losses
and damage to the block will reach
nearly, or quite $3.50, further in
vestigation however may change these
figures materially.

SITUATION UNCHANGED.

ATHENS, May 11.-Deayannis the retiring pre-
mier, refuses to convoke the Greek chamber of de-
puties, to take action on the crisis. Yesterday
evening he explained to his adherents the reasons
which prompted him and other ministers to re-
sign. He said nothing hut war could efface the
humiliation to which Greece had been subjected
but that war was impossible without unanimity
among the Greeks. Agitations carried on by the
opposition, and the indifference of the king para
lyZed the efforts of patriotism, and therefore the
government had resigned in the interests of the
country, convinced that the powers entertained
enmity towards his government
Ihe Greeks are holding mass meetings all over
the country to protest against the blockade issued
by the powers, and appealing to the people ef
of the powers.
