The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1891-06-11

George Roos: Let us have a genuine
old-time Fourth Of July celebration in
Princeton this year. I know of four
men that will contribute $50. I will
guarantee to raise fund of $500.
The young people arc bound to have
a Fourth of July celebration in this
village. Let them get together and
perfect their plans. The UNION offers
the use of its columns gratuitously.
During the month of May $3.50 was
paid out for cream at the creamery.
That helps out everybody a little. It
brings money here from thousands OF
miles away, and is so much clear gain.
The advertisement soliciting bids for
the erection of $4,000 brick school
house appears in this issue of the
UNION. The school trustees propose
to erect a building that will be an
ornament to the place.
1t will be worth the admission fee to
Jesmer's Hall tomorrow evening to get
a glimpse of the beautiful new drop
curtain that Mrs. Rose Patterson has
painted. 1t is an artistic piece of work
and is a credit to Mrs. Patterson.
John Hatch is down from Mile Laos,
where he has been farming and
improving his claim for the past three
or four months. Mr.. Hatch says the
| thieving drunken Indians make life a
burden to the settlers in the lake re-
gion.
Fred Mcclellan, town assessor, says
he finds that people are in better shape
financially than they were when he
was making his rounds a year ago.
Farmers, especially, are feeling more
hopeful in the expectation of fair crops
and better prices.
Princeton has no boom, but the
town is improving steadily all the
the erection of at least forty new resi-
dences, some of them costly ones, too.
There is not a vacant residence or
business house in the village.
The man that does not advertise
should not be troubled with much bust
ness. He is not the sort of a man that
honest people care to deal with. The
man that is too stingy to advertise is
mean enough to sand his sugar and
water his vinegar. Steer clear of him.
NJ. S. Rutherford has rented the Bar
l1er building on the corner of Main and
First streets and opened up real es-
tate office. Mr.. Rutherford will buy
and sell real estate in Mile Laos, Sher-
burne and Isanti counties. Any business
intrusted to his care by non-residents
will receive prompt attention.
The East Branch drive is chung up"
for the present owing to a great scare
ity of driving fluid. The rear of the
drivers about three miles below Milaca.
Charley Page, look out or you will
have to buy that hat. The Fourth of
July draws near and the Anoka boom
| limits are more than a hundred miles
away.
At noon to-day, June 9Th, Mr.. Frank
Wanberg, Of Mile Laos, and Miss
Mary Grow, of Princeton, were mar
ried at the Grand Central Hotel
parlors, by Rev. 3. V. Campbell. The
couple were accompanied by a few
friends and returned for home immedi-
ately after the ceremony Cloud
Times.
DR.. Tarbox was the victim of a run
away last Sunday evening. While re-
turning from a professional visit to
Estes's Siding, in company with Bill
Burke, the nag that Billy was driving
became frightened and unmanageable.
The doctor and Billy were thrown from
the buggy but they escaped without
serious injury. The vehicle was badly
wrecked.
John Johnson, Princeton's merchant
tailor, has removed from the corner of
First and Main streets to rooms over
Rines's store. Mr.. johnson is a first
class tailor and, does good work. No
city tailor can do any better, and his
prices are from 10 to Is per cent below
city tailors' prices. When you want a
