A wind storm yesterday afternoon
tore down a good many grain stacks
in this vicinity.
No. Northern wheat was quoted at
IS cents yesterday-a decline of nine
cents within few days.
We are informed that Capt. Lewis
cut and bound rs acres of corn in three
days with his self-binder, using only
one pound of Irvine to the acre, and is
we'll pleased with the experiment. On
the Gilfllan farm a large amount of
fodder has been cut in the same way.
A. Benham, of Red Wing, has been
buying another quarter section of land
in Three Lakes. Mr.. Benham has al
ways had unbounded faith in Red
wood county real estate, and owing to
the steady increase in values, is likely
to realize something handsome in the
end.
A cloud of insects visited this sec
ton Monday evening, defying screens
wherever attracted by lights. At Geo.
Whittet's the family thought their
bees were swarming, owing to the
noise made by the winged visitors,
and had to extinguish their lights in
order to avoid being over-run by
them.
Quite a number of people attended
the meeting held in the Methodist
church last Friday evening to discuss
the Chautauqua literary course of
study, eighteen of whom decided to
join. Many more of those who have
left school and are not intending to
take any regular course of reading,
will find it interesting and instructive,
as well as a source of pleasure, to join.
The new year commences the LIST of
October. The cost is small in proper
ton to the benefit obtained. Another
meeting will be held at Judge Bowers
residence tomorrow evening, to COM
plete the organization and take meas
ures to order books. All who are in
terested in the work are invited to be
present.
AS will be seen by the call elsewhere,
the alliance in this county has decid-
ed on separate political action for
county officers. In this they are ex-
ercising an unquestionable right, and
with good nominations as result,
they will at least do no harm. With
a three contest, the only way
in which the Republicans of this coun-
ty can be defeated is by defeating
themselves. 1t is not unlikely, howev-
er, that the Democrats will try COM
bination with the farmers, as there is
some talk of their doing ON Governor.
This might make the fight in this
county interesting, but with good
nomination on the Republican ticket,
the members of that party will not be
greatly alarmed over the result Go
in, gentlemen!

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
A Number of Bills in the Interest of
Labor Passed.

WASHINGTON, August 3O.-The house,
this morning, took up the bill for the
adjustment of accounts of laborers,
workr.en and mechanics, arising under
the eight hour law. Tee measure was
earnestly advocated by Caruth, Dingley,
OF Maine, Covert, Morrill,, Flower,
Wade, Reilly, Osborne and Farquhar.
Brewer asserted that the men who had
worked in the navy yards had entered
into a contract with the government to
work ten hours and had been paid fo1
ten hours work. To say they took the
work under protest, and ought to be
repaid for the extra two hours was toe
ridiculous for argument to be pre-
sented.

WASHINGTON, August 3O.-First AS
sistant Postmaster Clarkson practically
concluded his service in the postoftice
department to-day. The president much
desired his continuing in the place, but
Clarkson was unable to remain longer
Clarkson will assume the presidency of
the Judson Pneumatic Railway COM
pany, which applies new principles to
losomotion and motive power in cities
In his nearly eighteen months in office,
Clarkson has appointed 26,675 fourth
class postmasters, and established $500
new postoffices. In presidential offices
2,217 appointments have been made dur
ing his official time, leaving only 400 OF
this class of offices unchanged. A strik-
ing feature is the number OF new offices
established, over half of which are in
the southern states. The men most
prominently named as his successor are

The house then proceeded to consid-

HIS IDEA OF WOMEN.
What Il Prominent English Arl-
tll0r Thinks of American E.:-
lsies--A Comparison with Eas-
rODeaH Girls.

A we'll known English author, who was re
Gently in the United States, was entertained
by q gentleman and lady of wealth, residing
on Fifth avenue, New York. In the course
of the dinner the conversation turned upon
American women, when the English gentle
man said:
nowhere in America do you find such
compilations and nowhere such health as
we see in the faces and forms of English
girls. have noticed this in every city that
weak, faded. They lack color and they lack
life. Existence seems q burden to them not
a pleasure You in America do not notice
it, because you are here, while | can see it
very plainly"
We may say that this English author was
prejudced, was conceited, was bitter, but
we cannot say that he was wrong American
ladies are not so strong, so healthy so brill
liant as they should be. Their compilations
are not so clear, nor their eyes so bright as
could be desired. Doubtless the climate has
something to do with this, but it is unques-
tionaDly true that by. proper care and a jul
dicious use of the right means, these things
can be overcome. Any lady who feels tired.
respondent or weak, can readily overcome
these troubles by a proper use of a little pure
Whiskey taken in water. Bear in mind, how
ever, that it should be the best whiskey, as
anything else is injurious and also remem-
Der that the best physicians and
chemists in America unhesitatingly de-
clare that Duffy's Pure Malt has
no equal The effect of this whiskey is to
plexion. and to give brigh tness ana vigor in
the place of weakness and languor. 1t is
being used by the leading ladies in the land,
and its pODularity proves its value.

Funeral.

New York Sun.
The colored people in small town in
Georgia had gathered at their church to
hold funeral services over the remains
of woman who had,died couple OF
days before, and the ceremonies were
about to begin when the bereaved hus-
band, who was large, corpulent man,

the veStibule to follow him to the horse
shed in the rear of the church. When
they had arrived there the bereayed

PRIMROSE DAY.
The Festival in Honor Of Lord
BeacoDsfield's Memory.

London Figaro.
1t seems that the founder of Primrose
day was Sir George Birdwood, who pro-
posed to the committee of the st. Steph-
ems club, of which he is member, that
the club dining table on the 10Th of
April should he decorated with prim-
roses in honor of Lloyd Beaconsfeld's
memory. The suggestion was rejected,
but Sir George Birdwood, nothing
daunted. wrote the Times, elaborated
his idea, and proposed that the
primrose should be adopted as the
Beaconsfeld emblem. Then on the
10th he and his friends bought up all
the primroses they could find in the
florists shops in the city and West End.
The following year the Standard was
asked to insert an article i'll favor OF the
celebration of the festival, but the idea
was characterized in Shoe lane as
''childish." Sir George made his great
effort, however, when he agreed to find
the money for some advertisements by
a large firm in Covent Garden, who an
nounced that they would be prepared
to supply primroses to any extent for
the 10Th of April. Orders poured in, and
from that time Primrose day was eStab-
lished. So runs the story, and l be-
lieye it to be true.
