Dakota City Advocate: The P. & d
of July 9th, says that "the average yield
of wheat in Hutchinson county will be
FIVE to six bushels" We are glad to say
that from careful inquiry of our farmers,
and by personal observation that the
above report is not true OF this section
of the country. Wheat at the present
time is better that last year and will oil
be in the shock in ten days. Oats is
suffering from drouth, but is not dam
aged as much as reported. Corn looks
well, is ahead of last year, and if rain
falls will make a good crop.

The company, consisting Of about 80
of Toledo'S most prominent people, an

Everything tempting to the appetite
of an epicure had been supplied and
the reputation of the Wright House
for being the best hotel in the state was
fully sustained. After the dinner had
been thoroughly discussed the dining
room was cleared and to the music of a
splendid orchestra brought from TOle-
do. dancing was INDUCED in until mid

various points OF interest IN our village
and at noon took the cars for home.
From the Toledo Sunday Journal and
the Commercial we take the following
items referring To the occasion:
Quite the society event of the week

The masquerade ball given last Fri
day night by the Alma Orchestra AND
Dramatic Club was well attended anC
proved very enjoyable affair. Al
though the attendance was not as large
rs at the one given last February, nol
the costumes as numerous on as elegant
all in attendance report good time
The two brigrades monopolized the at
tenton of those ladies whose costumes
had they not enlisted in these brigades
would have been elegant and attractive
however, these were novel and the la
dies seemed to thoroughly enjoy them
selves. Perhaps the best performance
of the evening was that of Nick David
son, who acted the part of an unsophis-
ticated country lad TO perfection, and
Meyer Fink who acted as best girl and
protected the verdant youth from all
harm, and other girls. They did well
and created no end of amusement. IL
J. Ward made fine looking German,
and was not recognized until the masks
were removed. About 200 people par
ticipated in the pleasant event.

of our late Brother, Geo. W. Schweier,
do humbly offer our tenderest sympa-
thies to his afflicted wife and family,
feeling that although mere words cam
not make amends for the great loss they
have sustained, and that expression of
coincidence wholly fail to restore the
loved and lost one, yet we cannot but
hope that the heartfelt coincidence OF
sincere friends will not he deemed an
intrusion on their present grief; and
knowing that as our dear brother lived
the life of an earnest, upright Odd Fell
low he is now reaping his reward, and
is basking in the eternal sunshine Of q
Heavenly home, where troubles never
enter and all is peace; aud that ne is
now holding out beacon light to guide

Fire.

Last Sunday evening about o'clock
Il cry Of fire was heard upon the street
and the report that the Wright House
was on fire began to circulate with great
rapidity. 1t was soon ascertained that
the fire was in the drying room of the
laundry, which is situated in the wing
west of the main building. When the
windows were opened the flames leaped
out several feet and it seemed almost
certain that this handsome ediiice was
doomed to destruction. All the hand
gIenades about the house were brought
into use and the flames extinguished
nicely just as the fire boys got the con-
nectiOns all made and were ready for
business. No one knows how the fire
originated but it is fortunate thing
for Alma that it was discovered just
then, as the interior of the room was
all ablaze. AS it is our most noted in
stitution is standing to-day and only
$4,000 worth of damage was done.

CHAPTER III.
THE PORTRAIT OF A LADY.

That week everybody called upon the Tenn
pies. The universal impression was favor
able, and we all reioiced over SO vivacious an
addition to our society, and already the ques-
ton was flying from lip to lip among the
ladies': Whom will the Misses Temple
marryw That on the grounds of social posi-
ton and education the new Corners would
stand high amongst us was not doubted for a
moment, while their easy fortune was pro
claimed by their dress, the furniture of their
house and their manner of life generally.
Each successive visitor had something new to
tell. One remarked how finely the furniture
and ornaments were fancied Another
marked the glories of the harp and the piano.
"The pictures are lovely" said a third; mot a
poor one on the wallis" And carpets, and oil
cloths and the coloring of the walls came in for
commentator in due course. All of us were
delighted with the lively conversation of tho
girls, and we marveled unanimously at Mrs
Temples wide knowledge of the world and
the briskneSs with which she uttered it. Nor
was one of these praises undeserved. The
drawing room of the Temples was charm
ing contrast to most of those around Ease
cultivation liveliness, whatever is choicest i'll
social intercourse, seemed to pervade the very
air and you felt as you entered the room that
you had passed into region where refine
ment reigned supreme. The Temples were,
somehow, above us all. We felt it, and with
increasing difhdence, we realized our in
feriority, YVES the question asked, "Whom
will the Misses Temple marryp
