hall last Saturday evening. The
novelty of the affair and the affec-
tive manner in which Prof. Norris
advertised his entertainment attract
ed a large audience. 1t is true as the
Prof. promised, that his dogs do al
most any thing but talk. 1t is hardly
conceivable that it is in the power OF
man 10 train dogs so thoroughly as
those are trained. a. an exhibition
of what can be taught to dogs the
show was an entire success.

Dlspidatel sidewalks should be
repaired this week and all yards
cleaned up and raked off. This. was
suggested in The Sun last week and
is now repeated upon request Of Off
GERS of the post and village authori-
ties, for it is their wish and it is to
the interest Of every citizen that the
town generally should be as bright as
new pin next week. Hard work is
being done on all sides in this direc-
ton. There are very few i'll town
who have not this spring given the
matter of cleaning up proper atten-
ton, and it is hoped by the authori-
ties that these few will not delay
further. 1t is work that must be
done, and should be done at once.
FOR SALE 4 yoke of oxen, a
wagon, drag and other machinery.

Charley Sunley, former resident
of Morris, was ''held up recently in
Brainerd and the matter-of- fact man
ner he has of dealing with the light

rell and Smiley were stopped on big
dump Monday night by party of
would-be robbers who wanted their
lives. Mr.. Farrell ran away leaving
them nothing only his regards, but
Mr.. Sunley stopped and argued the
case with them, finally giving them
twenty-five cents and declaring it
was all lie had. lie had nearly fifty
dollars in another pocket. however.
They at first proposed to take his
watch. but he talked them out of
their intention. Some tramps, have
since been arrested who are believed
TO be the same persons. They are in
Jail and will have hearing to-mor-
row.
The people of Florida are anxious
to have the public generally informed
as to the capabilities OF that wonder
full semi tropical region, believing
that many whose health does not
permit of their spending their winters
in the North would spend at least
part of it in their State, if more was
known about 1t, the Florida Immigra
tion Association will make a very
large display at the Minneapolis Ex-
position, which will include orange
lemeR, cocoanut and olive trees, pine.
apple and banana plants, ETC., all in
bearing. No such display has ever
been attempted before in the North
| They will also send some large ali
gators which will be assigned space
in the large pool in the center of the
Exposition building. These large
reptiles will doubtless see manJ
strange things during their visit tt
the great show, but few things viii
appear as strange as they will to the
people of the northwest who are
accustomed to different varieties Of
game.
