A destructive fire is sometimes a
blessing in disguise. The late depot
at Kasota is to be replaced by fine
structure of pressed brick, 100 feet
long, to be heated by steam.
Mr.. Deyereaux, senior, had the mis-
fortune to have one of his eyes so bad
ly hurt during the threshing season,
that there is no prospect of restoring
the sight of the injured organ.
Yesterday w. E. Baker sold his resi-
dence and grounds on Minnesota St.
to Till Tibbetts. The purchase price
was $500, which is but little more
than half the original cost eight or nine
years ago. Mr.. Tibbetts got bargain.

tendance at court as a juror last week,

ant, successfully passed his state ex-
animation as pharmacist last week,
and is duly licensed to fill prescrip-
tons. Mr.. Luscher is as level headed
as he is obliging, and there is no dan

Prof. McCleary, of Mankato Normal
Schools stopped over in Redwood Falls
last Friday night on his way to ell
lecture engagement at Madison. He
reported the attendance at the normal
school as exceeding the seating capac-
ity of that institution, and everything
moving forward hopefully. The next
legislature cannot afford to ignore the
need of the Mankato school for more
room.
According to the present drift of
opinion regarding Sunday opening of
the Worlds fair, there appears to be a
fair probability that the management
will respect public opinion if it does
not respect the Sabbath. The char
acter of those who loudly demand Sun
day opening is not such as to carry
weight with the commissioners against
the earnest protest of people who have
been brought up under Christian in
Auences.
Engineer Loweth, of St. Paul, who
was here few weeks ago by invita-
ton of the city council, making inves-
legations as to water supply, has just
submitted a report of some length
which the Gazette will publish as soon
as it has been acted upon by the coun-
Gil. MIR. Loweth proposes plans for
thorough system for the whole village
at an estimated cost which compares
favorably with the cost of similar sys-
TENS in neighboring cities.
The last number of the Alphian,
published from Piilsbury Academy,
shows the earmarks of Wilbur Chollar
in the local department. The way
Wilbur used to keep the wires hot be-
tween Redwood Falls and Minneap-
oils, with specials on every conceivable
subject, foreshadowed success in his
present career as an itemizer. By the
way, we notice that Granville Porter,
another Redwood county youth, is
still Editor-in- Chief of the Alphian.
A little incident of the social at Del
hi last Friday evening was not chron-
icled by our obliging reporter, but it is
too good to suppress. Hon. O. B.
Turrell was called upon for "a few re-
marks" and in the course of his little
talk addressed a question to class of
juvenile Delhites. He said that he al
ways meant to recognize his young
friends on the streets, but had noticed
that many of the boys appeared to
know him, although he could not re-
member their names or faces. "Now,"
said O. B., beaming benevolently from
behind his glasses upon the boys,
"Why do the children remember me
so much better than do them?" De-
termined not to be "stumped," Delhi
boy sung out, Because they have
more strength ofmind." Several grave
elders in the front seats all but ex-
ploded at this unexpected answer, and
o. B. has been SO tickled over it ever
since that he hasn't been able to keep
it quiet
