OLD TIMES.

a new vault has been placed in the
basement of the court house for the
storage of old papers, and in rummag-
ing around there the other day Depu-
ty Auditor Fuller found a copy Of the
Mankato Weekly Union, published by
Charles H. Slocum, dated December
30, 1864. This paper is direct ances-
tor of the FREE PRESS, and a few
clippings from it may be of interest
to old settlers.
Considerable space is taken up in
a discussion over the ownership of the
bell of the Presbyterian church. The
ladies society has a communication
showing that it purchased the bell.
They say: I'VE sent to Cincinnati by
our own agent; purchased the bell,
and received it in May, 1857: paid the
freight on it, and presented it to the
officers of the church, who raised it
on ,ow frame at the school house.
After the city ball was completed the
bell was removed with the church to
that place: thence from place to place
with the congregation, being always
used for social, religious, judicial, ed
vocational, political, military and
town Site purposes, by all parties in
town. until in November last, when
it found resting place in the belfry
of the Presbyterian church for which
it was originally Intended" This is

The snow storm Monday prevented
work being done on the new grade at
Rogers hill. The citizens of the neigh
borhOod had agreed to turn out on that
day and complete the work commenced
by Supervisor Dukes last spring. 1t is
thought that with a good turn out of
workers the grade can be finished in
two days. 1t is an important piece of
work, and every one in the neighbor-
hood who expects to travel the road
should lend hand.
Mr.. Robert Foley of Crook county
came here last week and will spend
the winter with his parents.
Mr.. Guy Parrish, who lately moved
into the Crockett house, has bought
six acres of land of Mr.. w. b. Perry.
The land is situated north of the state
road. MIR. Parrish expects to build and
make this his permanent home.
The Christmas tree at the NJ. E.
church promises big crop Of good
things for the young folks. There was
an increased attendance last Sunday
at Sunday school, in anticipation of
the good things Santa Claus is expected
to bring. Mr.. Sherrieb, the superinten-
dent, requests those who have presents
for the tree to bring them to the church
by noon on Saturday.

day for Yoncolla, Oregon, to visit Mrs.

BEATTY's PIANOS AND ORGANS.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, the great Or
gan and Piano manufacturer, Is build
ing and shipping more Organs and
Pianos than ever. In 1870 Mr.. Beatty
left home penniless plow boy, and by !
his indomitable will he has worked his
way up so as to sell SO far nearly 100, 900
of Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles laid in his way. that
would have wrecked any ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out of it brighter than ever.
His instruments, as is well known, are
very popular and are to be found in all
parts of the world. We are informed
that during the next ten years he in
tends to sell 200, 900 more of his make;
that means business of $2O,0OO, 600, If
we average them at 500 each. It is
already the largest business of the kind
in existence. Send to Daniel +. Beatty,
Washington, New Jersey, for cata-
logue.
