The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1891-08-20

A woman at Ground house attempted
to commit suicide last Tuesday evening ,
by the rough-on-rats route. She swal-
lowed so much of the stuff that it acted
as an antidote and she will recover.
The Misses Bertha and Lizzie Goss
came up from Anoka, Saturday, to wit
ness the ball game, and they remained !
over until Monday afternoon. The ,
girls applauded heartily every time the
Anokas scored.
The nine little girls from Minneapo- :
lis, who are up here for a summer out ,
ing, were treated to an excursion and
picnic at Elk Lake, Tuesday. Every
body is trying to make it pleasant for
the little strangers.
In all probability Ed. Claggett, the ,
sturdy catcher of the Princeton club,
will wear an Anoka uniform next year.

No, we can't spare Ed. Our boys ,
need him here. Anoka can't have ,
him. ~

family, leave for Towner, N. D., to-day,

he is financially embarrassed. Jock

certainly will if his health is spared.
