sANBORN.

The alliance meeting at the Feuer-
stein hail in Sanborn on Wednesday
last was a mixed up affair. There were
some old democrat farmers came in
from away back on the cold prairie to
help make crowd for Mr.. Stewart to
talk fve-ccnt calico and ragged breech-
es. to. The young orator buried
the democrat party far out of sight
and condemned the Republicans for
dishonest legislation, for favoring rail-
roads. He talked the two old parties
out of existence and said we had to
have new party to make honest leg
islation. Well, they can use their
President Donnelly for an example of
that virtuous new party.
The town caucus at Sanborn on the
9TH was the largest ever held to NOM
mate town officers.
We read with pleasure Eli Webb's
excellent letter from Oregon. Mr..
Webb gives very good reasons for his
first assertions as to uniformity of the
climate of the Willamette Valley of
Oregon. Although Mr.. Webb quite
agrees with me that Western Central
California possesses glorious climate.

G. Porter sprained his ankle last
week and has not been able to get

G. Miller has been laid up with

Geo. Conley's children have been
suspended from school on account Of

VIM. Merchant deserted the ranks
OF oelibacy last Thursday and fed
with his partner to New Ulm, where
they were united in the bonds of holy
matrimony. They returned to Morgan
the following day and were accompan-
led by number of our citizens to Lone
Tree Lake where their parents reside.
The evening was then devoted to q go
cial entertainment in honor of the event

Granite Falls Tribune: We are
panied to announce the breaking down
of Rev. Halsey, the Rector of Trinity
parish here, from mental strain caused
from overwork. 1t has long been the
theme of conversation that Mr. Halsey
has too closely applied himself to his
theological labors and taken too little
exercise. Close application and assid-
uous mental labor, temporarily unbal-
anced his mind, and several days ago
he went over to Redwood Falls to
make certain arrangements regarding
meetings when his actions were re-
marked somewhat queer and on the
advice of DR.. Finn, he was sent east
to receive medical treatment for what
our people believe, temporary mental
alteration that will be relieved by
proper medical treatment.

The Bachelor Killarney's Celebrate.
Probably the most recherche social
event of the season was the banquet

gentlemen friends by the members OF
the Killarney Club, Messrs. E. R.
Duerre, NJ. D. Martin, j. F. Skinner
and Ross Houck, last Monday evening
in their artistically furnished rooms in

Though no floral decorations were
in play, the rooms were elegantly dec
grated with pictures of beauty and
certainly wore an appearance of an
enchanted art gallery. The honored
few assembled a few minutes before
3 o'clock and participated in a number
of the favorite games until 10 80, when
seemingly, to the guests present, and

The elements seemed to be rather
against the Methodist choir who made
a couple appointments for concert in
our church. However, on Tuesday
last it let up long enough for them to
venture out. The amount realized
was rather small for the amount of
good music given to the audience. If
the absent ones knew what they missed
they would not stay at home for lit
tie cold weather. The proceeds of
their venture, $3.50, goes toward pay
ing for new organ, SO we understand.

RABIES At ECHO.

40. Gibbs SON Willie, and Several Dog,
and Cattle Bitten by n Mad Dog.
Yesterday A. O.. Gibbs, Of Echo
came to Redwood Falls for medica
advice for his son Willie, a boy of thir
teen, who had been bitten by rabid
dog. The boy was bitten on one of his
wrists about six weeks ago, and as the
wound was trifling, little attention was
given to tho matter until last week,
when several dogs and cattle that had
been bitten by the same dog died OF
were killed with symptoms of hydro
phobia. The matter was investigated,
and Mr.. Gibbs, after consulting DR..
Pease yesterday, took his boy to the
Pssteur hospital at Chicago, in the
hope that effectual treatment could be
obtained before the virus begins to
work. From Mr.. Gibbs statement to
the doctor it appears that early in Feb
ruary his dog bit a number of animals,
besides his boy. Ten days after a dog
belonging to Mr. Mansfield was bitten,
he was found seemingly paralyzed, and
died the following day. Chas. Cooper's
dog was bitten afterwards, and within
three weeks was shot in the town Of
Posen, foaming at the mouth. G. II.
Phillips killed his dog for rabies last
Friday. About the same time two of
his cattle were killed with symptoms
of madness. The original mad dog
disappeared and is supposed to have
boon killed somewhere north of Echo,
but not until numerous dogs had been
bitten, as above indicated, in the vicin-
ity of Echo. The situation calls for eau
ton on the part of people in this vicini-
ty as we'll as between here and Echo, as
1t is likely that infected dogs have
traversed the roads along with farm
teams between the two places.

Springfield Advance: In the eight
een months since the lands of the Wi
mona a. St. Peter Land Co. were placed
on the market, the greater part of it in
the country Immediately adjacent tc
Springfield has been sold. Farmers
whose land joined the old numbered
sections which were the property OF
the Land Company, have been the
principal purchasers, buying it in
many cases for homes for their child
rem. Mr.. w. c. Brown, the agent OF
the company, who is very thoroughly
posted on all matters relating to the
land business, having been in the ser
vice of the land company for over q
years, informs us that there is only
800 acres left unsold in Burnstown
and $500 in North Star. In Albin, Ba-
shaw and Mulligan townships large
part has been disposed of and brought
under cultivation. In those southeast.
ern towns of Redwood county, where
this land is situated, there is hardly
any left. Brookville has only $50 acres
unsold, Shutdown 500, Three Lakes
$50, while in Willow Lake and New
Avon townships the quantity is larger
though people from further north are
coming in and buying quite largely OF
the land in those towns. In Cotton
wood county the sales during the past
year have largely exceeded those OF
any former time.
