In the line of mechanical novelties,
the Minneapolis Exposition opening
on August 18th, promises an unusual
ly interesting display. An attractive

we note an envelope machine, wood

chinery, a full line of dairy machinery,
and number of other attractive spe-

OBITUARIES.

GRAVES-At his residence in Vernon Center
Blue Earth County, Mimi. Aug. 18th, 1871,
John Graves, aged IT years
Mr.. Graves was born in Madison
county, n. Y, in 1914. He removed
to Marquette county, Wisconsin, in
1856, and remained there until 1876,
when he came to this county, where
he had since resided. OF Puritan pa
rentage, Mr. Graves inherited in a
marked degree the characteristics of
his ancestors. A firm religious faith,
infexible moral principles, industri-
Gus habits and a resolute, self-reliant
spirit were his leading traits. Sur
rounded in his old age by a few OF
those helpful and genial home iniu-
ences which should cheer our defining
years, he yet resolutely faced the du-
ties Of life, and when stricken with
his last sickness he literally left his
scythe in the swath to stagger to the
bed of death, brave, independent,
manly old man. Let us hope he has
gone to the rest his faith so confident
ly expected in the future world.
LINDsLEY-At Vernon Center, Aug. 10Th,
1891, VIM. F. Lindsey, aged rs years.
Mr.. Lindsey was born in Madison
county, New York, in 1913, in the
same neighaorhood with Mr.. Graves,
and their lives ran in nearly parallel
lines to the end, their deaths occur
ring within an interval of few days,
and from the same disease. Mr.. Linds-
ley, too, was Of Puritan descent, and
had the Puritan characteristics, cor
rect moral principles and peaceful, in
dustrious habits, but he lacked the
decided self-reliant nature and simple
religious faith Of Mr.. Graves. The
one accepted in early life as finally
and without question the religious
dOgmas Of his ancestors. To the 9TH
er, though religiously inclined, belief
without Investigation was an impos-
sibility, and Investigation of this SUBJ
ject which battles human reason only
added to his perpleXity, and this was
further increased by natural inabil-
ity to decide a question con clusively
which was defect of his character.
Hence he struggled through life with
the religious problem without reach
ing satisfactory conclusion. But
both these men were equally upright
and conscientious in their life duties
and equally reverent and thoughtful
concerning God. May we not hope
that they are equally at peace in that
future world, which the one had con-
templated with SO much confid ence
and the other with such mingled anx-
iety and hope for so many years.

The Answer Given.

Sioux FALLS, Oct. G.-Today the an
swer in the famous divorce case of Marie
Nevins Blaine vs.. James G. Blaine, jr.,
was served upon Mrs. Blaine. In his
answer Blaine denies that the plaintiff
is bona fde resident Of South Dakota,
and that she came here expressly to
begin such action. The defendant de
MES that he willfully deserted the plain
tiff, and that he has refused to live with
her, but sets up the charge that his wife
herself on Sept. 2, 1888. deserted and
left the defendant and his home. Young
Blaine denies also that he has failed to
provide for plaintiff and children. but
pleads poverty, inasmuch as his income
of $4,000 is to cease on the first
of next December. The defendant
states that he does not feel the good oi
the child will be subserved by leaving il
in the custody of its mother, with whom
it will not be surrounded by wholesome
influences, and asks the court for the
custody OF the child. The case will be
heard before Judge Thomas at Dead
wood in February. There is every evi
dence of bitter fight over the posses
sion of the cbild-a very bright young
ster-who carries the head aud facia
expression of the secretary OF state
Everything of sensational nature hal
been striclly excluded from bott
sides of the case. As Mrs. Blame said
Il shall not be first to make seriou
charges"

Abercrombic Notes.

ABERcRoMB1E, N. D., Dot. 5.-Farmer
I. L. Stufiins, residing four miles
northwest of this place, was very badly
injured today. A load of threshers
were crossing his field and he objected
to their driving across and ordered
them off. One man jumped out and
attacked him, striking him with piece
of wood or the whip stalk, cutting his
scalp severely but not fracturirg the
skull. DIR. Hoftoe was called and found
the man unconscious and attended to
his wounds in his usual efficient pro.
fessional manner. A warrant has been
issued for the assailant, but he has not
yet been caught. Ii Stutfins had been
struck half inch further down he
would probably have been killed.
The funeral of the infant daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs w. H. Nope took place
from the Congregational Church yester
day. The editice was packed, many
having to stand outside. The sermon
was preached by the Rev. William Ed
wards from LIST Cor. XV.19: eff in this
life only we have hoped in Christ, we
are Of all men most miserable" The
theme was Immortality through Christ
alone. The sympathy of the whole
community was with the bereaved
parents.
A thresher working with Johnson's g
crew, near the Red River, three miles
west of Abercrombie, found this morn.
ing when he got up that he had been
robbed of $57. A man was arrested in
Wahpeton today for the crime, and the
constable has gone after him.

ST. PAUL. Oct. Gin May, 1890 the
st. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance
Go. was called upon to pay a loss ofbal-
ance of S3. 600 and $4,000 at Richardton,
Stark @, unity, North Dakota. 1t now
sues the Northern Pacific for this sum
on tie ground that the road occasioned
the loss. The allegation of complaint
is that ON May 10 at Richardton near a
frame railroad station there was
dumped from the fire box of loco
motive then on the track, sparks and
live Goals which were conveyed by the
heavy gale then blowing against the
station and that the flames spread to the
stores owned by the Richardton Land &
Improvement Co., which with their
stocks were destroyed The plaintiff
paid on the policies of the insurance
$3,728.25 and demands judgment for
So. 427, balance being the transferred

The Grand Forks brotherhood Case.

GA1EsBURa, ILL.,, Dot. 6.--This morn.
ing the session of the convention of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen was
taken up with the case of Lodge 126,
Grand Forks, North Dakota. This
lodge, some time after the Northwestern
difficulty, sent out circulars condemn.
ing the course of Grand Master Wilkin-
son. This was done without his knowl.
edge and was in violation of the consti-
tuition, which provides that circulars
must be submitted to and
be approved by Grand Master. Wilkin-
son deprived the lodge of its charter.
The lodge sent q delegate to the con.
vention. On the hearing this morning
THE DELEGATE MADE AN APOLOGY
for the lodge and said the lodge has
been misinformed by the press reports
and The Irainmen's Journal and other
railroad papers as to the facts. The
convention unanimously sustained the
Grand Master. The apology was ac-
cepted. The lodge was reinstate6 and
the delegate was seated.
Wilkinson, in his annual report, in
alluding to the discharge of 400 SWITCH
men on the Northwestern Road and
filing their places with brotherhood
men, said he distinctly advised against
the brotherhood men taking the places
of the switchmen. The report of the
general grievance committee on the
Northwestern arrived last night with
reports Of the proceedings of the griev.
ance committee to show that Wilkin.
sons connection with the affair had
been misrepresented.

Result of Rate War.

CHICAGO, Oct. $50 far from insur-
ing stability of sales heavy grain move
ment from west to east is likely to bring
decentralization that has been success
fully STAYED off during the dull portion
of the year. This will of course not be
due to tonnage, but to the fact that all
other outlets to the seaboard seem to be
in greater favor than Chicago, while
east-bound shipm ents of grain seem very
large large, by BY Ga},.ns gay of o.i St; n,!Lea Louis
The movement by way of Chicago is
lighter than for years at this season.
Officials of lines entering Chicago from
the west are beginning to grumble and
make threats. Their companies have
been conservative during the present,
ignoring the cut rates that we're known
to have been adopted at times by some
of their competitors in the belief that
such practices would be dis
continued as soon as the busy
season commenced. They now
say forbearance has ceased to be vir-
tue, and that they cannot afford to
stand by and let the other roads absorb
their share of their traffic ON which they
have depended to retrieve the losses Of
the year. Complaints are made that
the Missouri Pacific is cutting grain
rates from the Missouri river. and that
the Great Northern and St Paul, Min
neapolis & Omaha are employing unfair
means to divert traffic to Duluth. It is
even intimated that one or two of the
Chicago lines have taken steps to meet
this competition and that it is evident
they all will be engaged in scramble
for business.

Improved Sorghum sugar.

MEDICINE LODGE, Kan Oct. THE
first strike under the alcohol process
has been made at the government ex-
perimental station at this place, and the
result is even better than hoped for by
Professor Wiley, the discoverer Of the
alcohol extraction process. WHO has
charge of the station. One hundred and
fifty six pounds of crystal sugar was OBJ
tained from a ton of Coleman cane, five
times as much as obtained by the diff
fusion process, and it is anticipated that
when the syrup is reboiled the amount
per ton will be increased to 200 pounds
The official test made today by the gov
ernment chemist shows an average of
94l per cent. The result will be most
complete revolution in sugar man ufac-
turing, and makes the profitable pro-
duction OF Kansas sorghum no longer a
questionable experiment Further tests
will v be made on the government farm
here. The total product of the Eldred
& Amman mill at this place to date is
25O,OOO pounds.

about hundred admirers went out to
see two of their number fight on the
prairie to finish. They did not fight,
and the city scavenger cart was sent out
to bring in the principals. When the
driver saw them he refused TO tote them,
saying the kind of freight he carried
outclassed them!
