Recent prairie fires in the town of
Lincoln destroyed - tons of hay belong
ing to several farmers.
Several new houses have lately
been begun in various parts of the city.
The arrount spent in building improve
ments during the year will compare
very favorably with last year.
Now that Mankato has proper hotel
Accommodations she is prepared to re-
ceive any and all conventions which
may conclude TO come here in annual
session. The X. of =. convention, al
ready secured for next year, will bring
1900 knights, and the prize drill, par
AIDE, banquet, ball, etc, will be events
memorable in the city's history. The
State Dalryman's convention can be
easily secured, and that will bring an
other 200 people. The Minnesota
Valley Medical convention will be neld
in the city next December. What will
be the next convention to partake of
Mankato ; hospitality?
Merchants report considerable re-
vival of business, and all predict a large
increase in trade. There is general
feeling of confidence pervading the
community, and the orders for fall and
winter goods are unusually large. Mon
ey is not very close for this time of wear,
though the banks report Il large eXpOr-
tatIon of money to western Minnesota
and Dakota to assist in moving the flax
crop, averaging some 5000 day. A
large amount Of money is needed to
move that crop, while still greater sum
will be needed in moving the wheat
crop, when that begins TO be marketed
in earnest. Everyone sees some points
about the outlook that are very tiatter-
ing, and from which comfort is derived
-LeSueur NetcS: A great deal of ex-
element prevailed in Wisconsin on the
discovery Of pearls In clans in various
rivers of that state, many being found OF
value. Will Diener and Chas. Oliver
having read accounts in the newspapers
of these discoveries decided to look for
pearls IN clans in the Minnesota river,
and as result Of their labors, the past
month have found many pearls varying
In size from Il bean to small shot.
While IN Minneapolis Monday, Fred
Smith in company with W. c. Snow and
ourself visited several of the large jew
elry stores and had some of the pearls
examined. They were declared genu-
inc but OF irregular shape, hence were
considered worthless. Somebody will
undoubtedly be fortunate enough to find
one OF value in the river some day, for
there is no reason why they should not
be found, there being plenty of no value
on account of their form. The boys left
numb of specimens NJ the Neacs of

their value is uncertain, as the most o.
them are of irregular shape. Samples
have been sent to Philadelphia to ascer
tain their value. There are plenty Of
clans along the river at this point and

MIR. ] a. Bidwell. during the past eight
years has been officiating in the silver and
lead mines of Ivanpaw with great success.
There is no richer mining district in Call
fornia and with the coming of the Salt
Lake road there will be beyond a doubt a
great influx of capital and very extensive
operations. Speaking of that much talked
of and hoped for road, Mr.. Iiidwel Is
decidedly emphatic that it will be con-
structed. He has been all over the country
through which it will pass, and says the
construction will be attended by very few
obstacles. that nearly all the route lies
through region where the work Will be
comparatively easy The particular result
thus to be reached would be the opening of
THE IRON DEPOSITS At IRON COUNTY,
where iron and coal abound, and can be
easily worked and the conditions are such
as to make it inevitable that great iron
works would be established there. Mr..
Bidwell says that the people OF IvanpaW
are anxious that the line be built soon and
come close to their town. and the result will
be Il vast region will be thrown open and
made accessible"
Then there are minerals all along TO
Barstow, which is in the midst of the Calico
mining district. Here also the people are
very anxious for the Salt Lake road, al
though they are connected with the Allan
tic & Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads,
which would be Utah'S great distributing
point. and where we would receive our
freight from southern California, and for
southern Utah from San Francisco.
