The Stock show.

CHICAGO, November Il. - The Fat
Stock exhibition now in progress here,
is 50 far the most successful yet held.
The EXHIBITS are unusually fine and the
attendance unusually large. There was
quite 2 hutter among the stock men
when II became known that the grand
sweepstakes had been taken by
thoroughbred 2-year-OlG Hereford. No
animal as young as that has heretofore
taken sweepstakes, and only once be
fore has il been taken by a thorough
bred The Hereford men now feel that
their claims for that breed are Tindi-
Gated.

was almost impossible. On the Chippewa
river the principal work under the new APP

mile Bluff bar, where dams are under con-
StructiOn to concentrate the low water vol
ume into practicable channels. On the
Red River of the North the work of dredg-
! ing channels through the clay bars was re-
sumed, the dredging machines working
/ simultaneously above and below Grand
Forks. No new reservoir work was under
taken during the past season. Adding the
Pine river reservoir work. completed in
October. to that previously completed,
gives four reservoirs with a total capacity
of 10000. 600, 900 cubic feet, the annual
supply being little more than half their

several localities in which surveys were

made. and the reports of them will be rem

ent congress.

, with all data of interest concerning the

river between st. Paul and Keokuk. The
amount of work done during the season
was quite small, there being but little
money available until after the passage of

! that bill the appropriations for this section
of the river were $500 600. Subsequent to
the passage of the bill and before work

The state fair. located midway between
st. Paul and Minneapolis. is one of the
largest and best in the United States. The
grounds and buildings will compare favor
ably with any in the country while the pre-
miums and attractions are on a scale COM
mensurate with the magnitude Of the af-
fair. Already much has been done towards
securing exhibits and attractions for the
fair of 1887. The secretary has already
received large number OF entries includ-
ing some of the best studs of horses, herds
of cattle and flocks of sheep to be found on
the continent. He also perfected arrange

been marvellous. the increase in real

destied to be great railroad and manu-
featuring center, and section of st. Paul
as important as any other. Before the end
of this century it will probably have so, 600
to rs, 600 population. Bridges spanning the
river two or three blocks apart will make
communication an easy matter. West st.
Paul is already an important business place,
most of the trades, professions and COM
mercial lines being represented. The
Minnesota & Northwestern railroad has its
yards and depOts there; the immense Union
stock yards are located just below the south
ern limits; there are several breweries. a
large creamery and scores Of manufacturing
enterprises Oh large scale. Shrewd men
predict a great future for West
st. Paul, and large fortunes are
certain to be made in real estate.

There was expended in new buildings in
West ST. Paul during 1886 between
$500, O0O and 5000, 900. and it is believed
that double this amount will be expended
next wear. The improvements along Da-
kota avenue alone foot up $500. 600. The
business of that section grew to such pro-
portions that it became necessary to estab-
lish bank there, and another one IS to be
located at the stock yards. just south of the
limits. West St. Paul is fast becoming a
city of commercial Importance. An idea
of it's magnitude may be gained by compre
hending the fact that if it were set off by
itself somewhere out on the Northwestern
prairies it would be the largest town be-
tween st. Paul and Portland, Or.

coded by the physicians that Haeger

rearrested and placed in Jail, where
he now is. All efforts to get a state
