artist, Mr.. Johnson.
The Melrose choir was short lived
concern. 1t is too bad that so useful an
organization and one from which so
much real good could be derived cannot
get along harmoniously.
Mr.. Johnson, the photographer, took
his departure from our village Tuesday.
AL. Whittlesey went to Fergus Falls on
Wednesday morning on business trip.
Mrs. Linda Seal took her departure
for her home in Little Falls last Thurs
day.
Mrs. August Lindburgh accompanied
her daughter to Sank Centre last Thurs
day. -.
Edwin Clark returned from Minneap-
oils last Monday.
One of the finest set of bank fixtures in
this county, consisting of desks, chairs,
counter and railing, all of the finest
cherry and highly finished, was received
at the banking establishment of Edwin
Clark last Saturday and is awaiting the
arrival of an expert from Minneapolis to
put them in place and when this is &C.
complished we can boast of the grandest
bank interior in the northwest.
If it only takes one republican confres-
sional convention to create such COM
motion among the elements as we had
a week ago Wednesday evening, when a
a general shaking up in the east end of
this county was INDUCED in, what must
we anticipate as the result from the pres
Dental convention at Chicago the latter
part of this week?
Maj. Clark has purchased very neat
and large amount of wall paper and will
have his residence papered throughout
during the coming week.
A good deal of loud and boisterous
talk has been indulgedin during the week
on our streets, which is fast developing
into a genuine nuisance and measures
| should be taken to suppress any further
demonstrations of like nature, as it is
very annoying to the more peacefully in
clined citizens. 1t would appear to be
the result of some of our own loud talk
Ing young men, who ought to know
enough to behave themselves.

cess. They have purchased two hundred
and fifty yards of decorative bunting for
the numerous stands which will be on the
ground. They have also secured the
best of speakers, among whom are Dam
iel Bruckart of St. Cloud and several
othesr of prominence. The Sank Cen
tire drum corps will be among the many
attractions. The A. o. H. will partici-
pate in the days exercises, and B. R.
Palmer post of 6. A. r. from Sank Cen
tire will be present and assist in the gen.
eral good time mapped out for this occa-
siod. Taking it all around with the
elaborate preparations being made and
the grand display of fireworks in the
evening after the sham battle has been
INDUCED in, we fell confident that no.
body will 60 away dissatisfied.
| The railroad crew at this place, con-
sisting of about one hundred and twenty
men, and who appear to be very quiet
and peaceable crew, are not inclined to
create any disturbance if let alone. 1t is
seldom you see so large force of men
crowded together in so small place as
this who deport themselves any bteer
or act any more civil than they have
done and it is our candid opinion if they
are treated as gentlemen, no trouble will
arise. There is one thing selfevident
that no man or class of men will tolerate
abuse at this age without showing son.e
resentment, and it therefore behooves
each individual to treat everybody wi'tf
due respect in order that he may in re
turn command the respect of others.
| Twenty or more Sank Centreites came
down on Thursday evening to attend the
| Episcopal sociable at Vim. Clark's. We
saw among the number some of Sank C's
boosted musicians, therefore adjusted our
ears for a good musical treat. The
treat was "Martyn," america" and a
few other auld-lang-syne pieces sung to a
very slow metre. Our disappointment
would not have been so great had the
culture of the voices been put upon the
piece with soul stirring force, for these
are grand old melodies. We remember a
similar disappointment a few years ago
when other Sank Centre talent came
likewise, who upon invitation to sing
gave up these "same old songs to the
same old tunes" We draw one of two
conclusions, Sank Centre talent lies only
in its Boosting, or she has not yet learned
it is unwise to guage the culture and in
tellect of place by its size.
THE visitors were not making a pro-
fessional tour, and they promise not to
intrude again into the social circle of our
critical neighbors.-Ed.
The meeting of Garfield league club on
Monday evening was largely attended,
and several new members joined. There
was number of speeches made and a
jolly time enjoyed.
Those who live near the school appre-
ciate the great Improvement in discipline
at the recess hours. They have felt no
more annoyed than if they lived mile
away, While the preceding years have
been torture in this direction. We OBJ
serve very marked Improvement in
many other directions also under Mr..
Traces discipline.
