The Princeton union., 1892-07-21

On the 9th Of July at Thompson, N.
D, Miss Nellie Towns, an accomplished
young lady, gave her heart and her
aand in marriage to Bert w. Dimmick.
The groom and his people are we'll and
'avorably known here. Long life and
happiness to the newly welded pair,
Ind when that wind swept cline be-
comes tiresome for them, may they
wander back to Princeton for a home
81 beauty, health, comfort and peace.
The regular delegates to the Sixth
district Republican con-
vention from this county left for Du-
[uth on Tuesday afternoon. Those who
went from here were, ]. Z. Brady, G.
Il. Rines, Henry Newbert, L. S.
Briggs, r. M. Campbell ana r. g.
Dunn. The latter was not a delegate,
but went to attend a meeting of the
congressional committee. The party
was joined at Milaca by Arthur Z.
Snow and E. N. Bacon.
May Marvin, infant daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Ed. Marvin, Of Wyanette,
had rather a narrow escape Saturday.
By some unaccountable means the
baby obtained possession Of a bottle
containing oil of anise. The little one
drank part of the contents, but fortu-
nately was soon discovered by the
nurse who sent at once for DR.. Cooney.
Prompt measures on the part Of the
doctor brought the child around all
right, and she is now as bright as ever,
There, it is just as we expected. Our
boss, the fellow that writes an ineligi-
bic scrawl, came home from the
slaughter of Blaine vowing that he
would not attend another convention
this year. Since then he has partici-
pated in half dozen county conven-
tions and is now off in Duluth helping
to name a congressman; next week he
will be in St. Paul shouting for Nelson,
and then in all probability he will want
to take in the Democratic powwow the
week after. Yes, our boss will abstain
from politics some other year
A rather lively time was INDUCED in
at the annual school meeting, Saturday
evening, in district No. IL. Two fac
tions exist in the district who have
been for some time more orless bitterly
opposed to each other. Two men who
attempted to vote were challenged by
the opposition. This brought matters
to focus and free-for-all FIGHT was
the result. Broken heads, black eyes,
etc., are worn by the contestants. The
meeting was adjourned without tran
sacting any of the legal business. No
State troops have at this time been
sent to the scene.
A force Of men and teams, under the
supervision of Chas. Keith and Fred
Mcclellan, are at work improving
Main street. A grade has been estab-
llshed and for the first time the work
has been commenced in systematic
manner. First street, Oak street and
the eastern approach to the East
Branch bridge also demand the atten-
tion of the village fathers. Then the
rotten old sidewalks on both sides Of
Main street need patching up and lev
cling down. The council should force
property-owners to build decent and
uniform sidewalks. Let us have GOOD
roadways and sidewalks at any cost.
Several of the Masonic fraternity of
this place were in attendance at the
banquet given by Monticello lodge No.
l6, Friday night. Minneapolis lodge
No. l9, went up by special train in a
body eighty strong, and members from
surrounding lodges augmented the
number until fully one hundred and
seventy-five men sat down at the tables.
Grand Master Barto presided. The
collation. was the,very best that money
and culinary ingenuity could bring to-
gether. Toasts followed in order, in
terspersed by songs from the famous
Masonic quartet. It was an enjoyable
evening, and Monticello may well feel
proud of their hospitality
