citation, for this school year, will be

Balaton journal: An interesting
game of ball was played last Friday
afternoon between the Marshall and
Swan Lake teams, the former winning
by score of Is to s. The Swan Lakes
have the prettiest uniforms we have
yet seen, and Johnny Munroe says the
boys never play good ball the first
time they wear new clothes, but look
out hereafter.
J. A. Cumming & Co. find that the
use of printers ink added to the popu-
larity of the Deering machinery is
bringing them plenty of orders this
season. Their warehouse here is in
charge of David Whittet. Mr.. Cum
ming thinks the chances are not I'M
favorable for farmers getting their
Irvine on even better terms than last
year, and says the Deering company
will meet any competition as to prices
and quality.
Speaking of the Lienau-R Reuter- Com
pany, which appears here next We'd
nesday night, the Peoria Qn.) Tran
script says: 'The gem of the evening
was the violin solo by Jacob Reuter-
He has acquired q marked mastery of
the most expressive of musical instru
ments, and plays with the true artistic
instinct. His selection was 'Tartini's
Devils Trill," which afforded an
abundant opportunity both for deli
cate expression and difficult execu-
ton. He responded with selection
which was charmingly produced"
Redwood Falls creamery paid out
$225O for May cream, which at pres
ent low prices represents nearly double
the amount of cream that tho same
sum did last year. With good dairy
butter selling at eight cents pound,
and creamery stock in proportion, the
outlook for owners of COWS is anything
but encouraging. Over-production is
the only cause given for this state of
things. Meanwhile, the cheese factor
les are enjoying boom, but the
American people do not eat cheese
freely enough to make it permanent
competitor with butter, in the home
market.
Bathing in public places, contrary
to the village ordinances, is liable to
get some of the bathers into trouble.
Complaints have been made to the
village marshal that the bathing at
Baker & McMillan's dam is develop
into nuisance, particularly on Sun
days, when the "studies in the nude"
are accompanied with whoops and
howls that would discount a Sioux
war dance.
Section 2 of Chapter 2 of the VII
lage Ordinances reads:
Sec. 2. It shall not be lawful for any
person to battle or swim in the Red
wood river between the hours of 6
o'clock in the morning and eight in
the evening, within sight of any dwell
ing house, public walk or place of bus
mess, within the village limits.

Der. The circus of Wallace & Co. ex-
hibited here yesterday afternoon and
evening. 1t is an excellent circus,
without any sham or humbug. Every
thing stated in the bills is shown, and
some of the performances are very re-
markable. The horses are the best ev-
or seen in circus. Everything is or
derby about the tents and wagons. The
menagerie is good. The acrobatic
performances are quite unequaled.
The canvas was filed with delighted
crowds. The side show which is un-
der the same management as the the
atre, has remarkably attractive feat
ures. No circus ever gave more gen.
eral satisfaction here to people that at
