Representative Turrell, of Redwood

Yes, but doesn't it throttle one of our
"infant industries" raising OF

The schedule of civil service exam
nations in the Northwestern States for
the year 1891 has been announced, and
people in Minnesota who desire to Sc
cure service under the federal govern
ment should make a note of the dates
as follows: Minnesota-St. Paul,
Thursday, May 7 and Wednesday,
Nov. 4; Duluth, Saturday, May g.;
Mankato, Tuesday, May II. 1t is un-
derstood that the quota of appoint
ments to which this state is entitled is
by no means full, so that successful
examinations will probably result in
early consideration.
The Gazette will send out statements
of subscription and other accounts as
fast as possible, to close last years
businessman meanwhile would urgent
ly suggest that our subscribers can
we'll afford to do the right thing in
this matter, without waiting for state
ments. With between FIVE hundred
and thousand dollars outstanding in
small unpaid subscription accounts, a
newspaper man who is not capitalist
is placed at great disadvantage. In
justice to several hundred prompt
paying subscribers, however, we wish
to add that this reminder does not ap-
ply to them.
The returned Masonic delegates re-
port pleasant sessions and good time
at the Grand Lodge meetings. A lit
tie episode of the trip cityward has re-
suited in a large drain on Geo. BRAKES
cigar fund. While the latter gentle
man was in the smoking car, his tray
cling companion, Judge French,
glanced upward and called Lawyer
Powells attention to Georges little
grip" which was travelling light and
bouncing around in a prom;scuous
way in one of the racks overhead
Powell suggested that the brakeman
ought to tie the little valise down 50
that it wouldn't get away, and with
his usual kindness of heart Judge
French proceeded to do the job him
self, and save the brakeman the trouble.
The tying was so effectually done as
to lead to ordinations as we'll as ex-
plantations when George came back to
his seat, Audience those cigars, and
mysterious allusion to Mr.. brakes
grip in the St. Paul News.
Owens Glass Blowers.
The Glass Blowing entertainment at
Huntington hall this week is not only
unique in the way of entertainments
but without any exaggeration it is the
best entertainment that has been Civ
en- in Redwood Falls for some time.
They opened Tuesday night to fair
sized house and by the performance
we are convinced that Prof. Owen is
master of his profession, exhibiting as
he does the various ways in which
glass may be shaped by blowing and
spinning, making it most marvellous,
scientific and instructive entertain
ment throughout. He succeeds in
thoroughly interesting his audiences
by his skillful manipulation of the
brittle substance, while the expert
ments are truly wonderful. Last ev-
ening he spoke of the many kinds of
glass existing and also the different
uses each kind is better adapted for.
During the week he will speak of the
different varieties and perform expert
ments as he continues. Much enjoy
ment was manifested by the audience
at the close, in the drawing of many
beautiful souvenirs made wholly of
glass. All should attend these enter
tainments. They continue Thursday
and Friday, closing Saturday evening.
The admission price is small and you
will never regret attending for you
are sure to enjoy yourself.
