Mr.. H. A. Subilia, ST., collected and
had transmitted to Governor Hubbard
$169.75 for the relief OF the Sank Rap
ids and St. CLOUD cyclone sufferers.
This, with the 5000 appropriated by the
city council, makes total of $369,75
forwarded from New Ulm.
The Omaha road has changed back
to the old time card so far rs the Pierre
express is concerned. Passengers leav-

to St. Paul without any delay at Kasota.
Coming west the train leaves St. Paul

tGuv." Joy, the once prohibition
candidate for governor of the State of
Maine, was brought before his honor,
justice Fisher, last week on charge of
drunkenness and disorderly conduct.
He was allowed to depart on payment
of $14,65, fine and costs. He has since
turned over a new leaf.
Frank H. Behnke has just received
and opened out an elegant line of coral
and Vienna glassware, most suitable
for wedding and birthday present max
ing. The articles shown embrace
everything suitable for everyday use,
and yet they are nice enough to grace
kings table. Don't fail to look in on
Mr.. Behnke when in want OF something
beautiful in glassware.
The vote of the officers of the Second
regiment M. N. G. for Inspector of Ri
file Practice resulted in the unanimous
choice of Lieut.. E. w. Bird. of Fair
mont. Lieut.. Birds home paper very
justly says: Lieutenant Bird has be-
come one of the best posted and most
ski]ful ritlemen in the State, and the
fact that he was elected unanimously
shows that his abilities are appreciated
by the officers of the Second regiment.
The Post thinks because the editor of
the REVIEW is q member of the city
council he is honored enough, and
should therefore have permitted the
Oot W w COuIluueu us Giic ''Oulcldl
paper of the city. The editor of the
REVIEW had nothing to say on the ques-
tion,, either officially or otherwise, and
is therefore entirely blameless for the
action of the council in this matter.
But as, the distinction carries with it
no emoluments not enjoyed by the
''semi-oficial'' organ, what's in the
name anyhow
If all the money the farmers of Min
nesota have been swindled out of dur
ing the past ten years by slick.tongued
tree agents and their unprincipled en-
ployers, had been properly cared for
and invested it would now be sufficient
to build a good barn for every farmer
in the state. Still in spite CT everything
the work goes on. The smooth talk,
the enhancing chromos, the golden
promises, make the victim forgetful of
the advice of his real friends, and he
gives the order to-day to regret it for
years to come. -Farma, Stock and

The many friends of Capt. John
Jones in this city and in the vicinity OF
Fort Ridgely will be sorry to learn OF
his death, which occurred in st. Paul on
Tuesday of last week. During the In
dian outbreak in 1862 Capt Jones was
an ordinance sergeant in the regular
army, and was stationed at Fort Ridge
". He did gallant service in repelling
the attack Of the savages on the fort
and those with him at that time remem-
Der him with heartfelt gratitude. It
was mainly his we'll directed fire of the
artillery that kept the Indians at bay.
In 1868 he was made captain of the
Third Minnesota battery, and did from
tier service until the close of the war.
