The camphor tree, to which we referred few weeks ago, is at- tracting general attention, as one that can be grown for profit, orna- ment and shade. It is one of the most beautiful of the shade trees, Is very hardy, standing a tempera- ture of 20 F. and it is a. rapid grower, forming plants IS to 26 inches from the seed, the first sea- son. It has done well in Florida and California. At present the great advance in the cost of cam phor is creating more interest in its production. The demand for 1t to use in the manufacture of smokeless explosives is one cause for the sharp increase in price. The tree grows to be 50 feet in height. It does we'll in a climate like that of Yuma and in a soil like that of the valley west of town. The Agricultural Depart ment at Washington will have a large number of plants for distri- button next spring. Why not plant the camphor in place of the pepper and other useless shade trees?

The crops of corn, beans and melons raised by the different bands of h. dians in our valleys, even with their crude methods of planting and culti. vating; show what can be done on the moist soil along the river bottoms without irrigation. Good farmers could cultivate these same lands with large profits.

BEFORE we go to press again the town election will have taken place. Thus far only one ticket has been put into the field, that of the Governors appointees-Hon. Abe Frank for Mayor, s. s. Gil lespie and Mel. Greenleaf for Coun- cilmcn. There seems to be a gen. eral desire on the part of the peo- pie that the town should be reor- ganized and the SENTINEL offers no objections. We trust that the efforts being put forth to place the town on it's feet will be successful, and that it will be for the benefit of all concerned.

EDITOR ADvANCE:-My visit in the
city of Lacrosse was a pleasant one,
shaking hands with old friends and
making visits to the old and new
places Of interest. From llth St. to
the mountains on the east, instead of
baron saDd-bar, as it was only q few
years ago, it is now the most beautiful
part of the city, with water works,
electric lights and street cars. The
cemetery is by far the loveliest place 1
have seen on my trip. No weeds or
illkept vegetation is allowed there.
Flowing fountains, flowers and short
clipped grass greet the eye, with easy
seats here and there in shady places
for visitors to rest in. The streets are
all macadamized, and hundreds of peo-
pie can be seen there each Sunday. No
one can think of their dead friends
who rest there without . kindly feeling
for the city of Lacrosse. *. :

VOLUME Xxx.

The Worthington ADVANCE, with
this issue, begins its Twentieth Au-
nual Volume. The nineteen volumes
already completed contain the ouly
available record of the history of the
town and county in which they have
been published. Our predecessor in
the editorial Office, Mr.. A. p. Miller,
was most diligent chrouicler of cur
rent events, as we'll as al able and ele-
giant commentator upon them as they
transpired. TO his thorough and en-.
th"siastic devotion to the Worthington
Colony and the interests of Southwest
ern Minnesota, this community owes
much. Many of the years in which the
ADVANCE put forth its energies were
years of appalling encouragement
With rare exceptions new settlements
have met with serious impedimeuts,
but the Mobiles county first settlers
seem to have had more than the ordi-
nary trials and privations of the new
country. Amid all trials the AD-
VANCE was an inspiration of cheer,
hopefulness and strength to those who
fought against grasshoppers. drouth,
hard times, and other discouragements.
1t always prophesied the better day
which has come. This years unpre-
cedented crop justifies all it has ever
said OF the capabilities of our soil and
climate for immense agricultural pro-
ductiOn. The ADVANCE, in it's TWEEN.
t'eth year, congrat ulates it's patrons on
the bright and encouraging prospects
before 1t aud them. 1t is still the sel-
want Of the people and the promoter of
their interests. The ADVANCE has y
larger list of patrons today than it
had at the beginning of any previous
volume. And yet We are not content.
We should have many more. If our
subscribers will kindly assist US we
pledge them better service in the fu.
tnre. We note among our encourage
ments All evident disposition on the
part of our citizens to utilize its COL
umns to exhibit more amply the grow
business and means, as we'll rs enter
prise of the community.

THE LIQUOR CASES.


The Sioux City and St. Paul Rail-
road Company owned nearly all the
town sites west of St. James on the
main and branch lines. Into the deeds
OF the lots sold, it put a condition as
follows: "This deed is made and &C.
cepted on the express condition that
Intoxicating liquors shxll never be sold
on the premises, as a beverage, to be
drunk on the premises; and il the same
10 done, habitually, with the kuowl-
edge and consent of the owner, this
deed shall be void"
1t will be noticed that this does not
Interfere with the sale of these liquors
nor with the sale of them as a beyer-
age, nor sale Of them on the prem
tses: but it does strike at such sales
when the liquor is to be "drunk on the
premises." Its object was to break up
the saloon. People could fall back on
what is known as the "Kentucky
treat;" each man take . drink of his
own whiskey; or. If he bought his H.
quor, he must drink it at some other
place than the shop at which he pur-
chased it.
Urged by number of citizens whose
deeds contained the same clause, and
who bought their lots and settled here
In reliance on this clause, the Railroad
Company, not because its lofty moral
sense was offended by such sales" but
In full6lment Of its agreement with
these citizens. brought two actions to
test tho validity of these conditions in
these deeds. One was against Law.
renee Singer, and for the recovery of
the brick building used a. . saloon, by
his tenant. aud the other against Mrs.
Anna Davis, for the brick building
used for saloon purposes by her ten
ants. The two cases were tried before
Judge Brown and Judge Severance,
sitting together, and q decision in each
was fled last week. They uphold the
condition in the deeds and find every
fact In favor of the plaintiff, that
would entitle the Company to the lots,
except one, which it is claimed can be
easily established on the second trial.
IN such suits second trial is always
had at the demand It either party, and
the 'rst one IS of the nature of q pre-
)iminary skirmish. The Judges say:
that under the evidence in the cases
there would be no doubt that the Rsil-
road Company would be entitled to 1
recovery except for . clause In tho
statute that reads: Nv hen condition
in . deed is merely nominal, and
evinces no intention Of actual or sub
stantial benefit to the party to whom,
or In whose favor, they are to be per-
formed, - = failure to perform

est degree, be injuriously affected by
the sale of intoxicating liquors in the
village of Worthington. ::
Perhaps, the sale of Intoxicating
liquors in the village of Worthi1gton,
offends the lofty moral sense of the
corporation plaintiff; but if so, it does
not appear from the evidence in the
case.
There may have been a good reason
for inserting the condition in question

plaintiff is not entitled to recover in

Reading by Moonlight,

Reading novels at midnight by the light
of the moon Is not known of in the United
States, but according to the English wife
of Sig. Gregorio Revuelto, of Guatemala,
it is no uncommon thing to see a senorita
reclining in a hammock with a book in
her hand on her fathers veranda in the
Costa Cuca District, Guatemala, between
twelve and one o'clock in the morning.
Sig. Revuelto is wealthy coffee planter,
and is in this country, accompanied by his
wife and sister-in-law, on pleasure trip.
The travellers reached Chicago yesterday,
and are registered at the Grand Pacific
Hotel. There are no moonlight nights
in this country or in England like we have

-eriods of the month is so bright that 1t Is
as light outdoors as during the day. Eng
lish and American poets write about the
sublime August moon, &c. They should
see moon in Guatemala during the time
1t is full. They would then have some
thing to go into OBSTACLES about."-Chicago

Tough, But He Liked Them.

The season for thinking about camping
out has come round again. To me the
only really serious drawback to the pleas
ures of camp life is the necessity of cook
ing things to eat.
We solved this inevitable sort of wrangle
last season in a very happy way for the
other fellows. The first cook was to be
chosen by lot. He was to do the cooking,
the dishes and all the other uncomfort-
able drudgery un til some one complained
of his efforts. The kicker" was then to
succeed him, and he to be relieved in a like
manner.

strangest cases that has recently come to
light.
Esther Kushneer, of SO Essex street,
SKIS til at the divorce obtained by her
husband, Abraham Kushneer, be set
pside for the reason that the decree was
obtained by conspiracy and fraud.
Her story is remarkable one.
Through her lawyer, G. S. Mashir, she
says that seven years ago she mar
ried Kushneer, and he went to live with
Isaac H. Sugarman, real estate dealer
and restaurant and boarding house
keeper at 1873 East Broadway. She was
sent to II Christie street to board until
rooms were taken.
After her child was born, she says, her
husband left her, and with the Sugar
mans endeavored to induce her to con-
sent to divorce. She refused.
Soon afterwards, she alleges, the SUI
garmans informed her that her husband
had gone to Australia. One d;.y after
this stranger appeared on the scene
who resembled her husband, and after
living with her 10 weeks said his name
was Ryan. The woman was deceived be-
cause she was partially blind. The real
husband then appeared on the scene and
secured divorce

A Yankee IS Swapper.o

A New London (Ct.) expressman is about
as good a specimen of Connecticut Yankee
as has recently come to light. He recently
ran across a useless old harness which he
didn't want, and so he traded it with a
colored man for watch. He then sold
the watch to a man for $3.50, to be paid in
installments. He got 81 of it, when the
man went broke" couldn't pay any more
and gave up the watch. The conditions
were that if he couldn't pay the full
amount he would forfeit what was already
paid-so the expressman had the watch
and the 81. In a little while a man came
along who owned a sulky that he didn't
want and who was glad to trade 1t off for
the watch. The expressman accommo-
dated him, and considers it the best bar
gain of the lot. At this rate of progress 1t
won't be long before that sulky will be
worked by easy stages into house and
lot.-New LondaN Comm telegraph.

There is dog friendship on Laurel Hill
avenue between burly white setter and
q short-legged smutty-nosed pug. AL.
though so unlike, these dogs exhibit con-
slant regard for one another, and run in
company. The speed Of the bird dog is
much greater than that of the pug, and
precludes the possibility of his keeping up
with him in a race; but ordinarily the
setter slows down to accommodate his
speed to that of his short-legged friend.
When, however, necessity requires the big
dog to let himself, out, he reaches down
and seizes the pug's harness in his teeth
and runs with him in his mouth as a cat
