Under all these circumstances the one plain

the suspension of silver purchases in the

MOODMAN, SPARE THAT TREE!
Not 1t, But the Council Shelters the
Man Who Fell 1t.

The city council held an interesting
regular meeting last Tuesday evening,
the most important small matter be-
fore it being the cutting down of
trees along the boulevard in Ramsey
Heights: Mr.. Crouley, who was COM
planned of en- that charge, stated that
the tree cut down was rotten and IL
able to fall at any time. He asked
the council to give him credit for not
depreciating the value of his own prop
erty by the falling of trees. Mayor
Dickinson read the ordinance provid-
ing for punishment of from 50 to
500 fine or from three to 80 days i'm
prisonment on bread and water for
such an offense,and Mr.. Crouley hint
ed that the ordinance might not be
effective under the new council. The
tree falling was finally legalized by
resolution.
Supt. McGlinchy, of the water sys-
tenn, reported the cost of laying the
four lnch'pipe main on Wyoming to
East, distance of "a feet, to be
$46.3O.
An ordinance was introduced Civ
ing the Western Union Telegraph Co.

A CHANGE OF venue
Will be Asked for In the Madigdn
Cases

The motion for the change of venue
in the cases of the State of Minnesota
VS.. Michael NJ. Madigan, indicted on
four charges by the grand jury of
Redwood county, will probably be
made some time before Christmas, as
Judge Webber will want at least one
month to consider the motion, and
give due notice to the jurors, in case
change is granted.
Mr.. Madigan is authority for the
statement that motion will be made,
and he intends leaving Tor Shakopee
some time this week and consult with
ex-senator Peck, in reference to the
same. The ground for the motion will
be that an impartial jury cannot be OBJ
tanned in this county, and the movers
will present copies of the various Red
wood county papers in evidence, tend
ing to show that the popular mind is
prejudiced. Mr.. Madigan merely acts
according to the wish of his attorney
in this matter, who thinks that a
schange of venue the best. The coun-
ty attorney himself believes that a fair
jury could be secured in this county,
and with such jury he is confident
of being acquitted.
In case the change is granted the
county selected will probably be
Brown or Renville, as those two coun-
ties are the most accessible to wit
nesses and others who are interested
in the celebrated case. The expenses
of the trial will of course be large, and
will, except the witnesses and counsel
for the county attorney, have to be
borne by Redwood county. The
change of venue will make the trial
much more expensive, of course.
Gov. Nelson has not yet appointed
the additional commissioners to take
the evidence in the three charges pre-
ferred by the county commissioners
against Mr.. Madigan. The cause of
the delay is not known, but it is sur
missed that the Governor is waiting for
the county commissioners to recon-
mend two names.

gave ball at their hall, and the fact
that the floor was continually crowded,
and that the supper was INDUCED in

of it's success. The wives of the coun-
try members of the order furnished

proved very colclusively that the
farmers wife stood at the top of the
list in cooking.

IHE OAZETTE.
Howard N. Bell was born in Temp.
kins county, New York, in 1913, and
is one of a family of nine children, six
boys and three girls. His early career
was spent on farm in that county, he
attending school a part of the time in
the winters. In 1861 he came west to
Wisconsin, where he worked at odd
jobs until 1865, when he enlisted as a
member of Co. G, 10Th Wisconsin In
fantry, and served in that capacity for
nine months. He returned to Wiscon-
sin. Suffering from ill-health he at
tended school for Is months, after
which he clerked in dry goods store
for four years. Then came the me-
morable surveying party of the North
ern Pacific, led by the famous confed-
crate general, Rosser, Mr.. Bell, full of
interest in the Western wilds, accept
ing position as member of Gen.
Rosser's engineering corps in 1872.
He was with the party when Sitting
Bull at the head of 5000 braves, could
be seen through a field-glass on the
Little Missouri, and when that famous
chief cautioned the engineering party
not to pass the Powder river for the
west under penalty of death, and when
Gen. Rosser, in defiance of the big
chief, crossed the river, and at the
head OF 700 troops put Sitting Bull
and his followers to flight, with loss
of only five men, including Capt.
Young, one of the brayest officers in
the service at that time. At the time
Of the memorable Jay Cooke failure
Mr.. Bell left the N. P. and went to
Hastings, this State, where he en-
barked in the furniture business, re-
naming there four years, and then
coming to Redwood Falls, where he
has carried on a successful business
ever since. In 1880 Mr.. Bell was mar
ried to Miss Ella J. Dyer,of Hastings,
charming and handsome social belle
of that town.

THANKSGIVING.
Quietly Observed In and Around
Redwood Falls.

The Thanksgiving of to-day is not
what it used to be in the good old
Colonial times. Then it was given
up exclusively to day of fasting and
prayer; now it is turned into day of
National holiday of football, feasting,
dancing and every other sort of amuse-
ment. 1t is hoped, however, that the
good people of this land did not for
get to take glimpse backward on to
the Thanksgiving days of yore.
Here in Redwood the first occur
renee last Thursday were the services
at the Presbyterian church, where the
Rev. John Sinclair delivered a sermon
on the day, Rev. L l.. Hanscom being
confined to his bed, and consequently
unable to meet his appointment. Then
at the Methodist church dinner was
served by the ladies and young ladies
of that institution. Here came fami-
lies and others who preferred to enjoy
a Thanksgiving dinner away from
home, and in society. Others dined
at home in family groups, and un-
doubtedly enjoyed a pleasant meal.
The young people of the Methodist
aud Presbyterian churches held merry
carnival all afternoon and evening,
and large crowd of elder relatives
were with them. Games, etc., of their
particular kind, were INDUCED in, and
peals of laughter we're frequent.

WHO'LL BE THE CHAMPION?
Competing for the Honor of Repre-
senting our High School.

The first public competition for the
selection of pupil of Redwood Falls
High school to represent the school at
the State oratorical contest, occurred
at Huntington hall last Tuesday ev-
ening. The interest of the public was
shown by good attendance, most of
the seats in the hall being occupied,
and over $2l being collected at the
door in spite of the small admission
fee. After music by the high school
orchestra, Principal Torrens introduced
May Ferris as the first contestant, who
acclaimed "How He Saved St. Mi
chaels." After overcoming a slight
tendency to be timid in the opening
passages, Miss Ferris rose to the spir-
it of her story, and told it distinctly
and we'll. Daisy Clayson followed
with the poetic account of the "Sink
ing of the Albemarle," narrating Lieut..
Cushing's famous exploit in manner
which pleased the audience. "The
Painter of Seville" was the theme
chosen by Pearl Sites, the third con-
testant. Her delivery was clear and
confident, and like those who preced-
ed her, she was rewarded with gener-
Gus applause.
A piano duet by Mrs. DR.. Pease and
Miss Chollar was rendered by way of
ihtermission, after which Miss Clara
Wilson came forward as the fourth
contestant and recited the stirring po-
EN-, "The Pipes of Lucknow" and re-
ceived her mead of applause from the
audience. "On the Frontier" as given
by Lucy Woodward, was a graphic
piece by word painting that lost moth
ing by the way in which it was haudled
by Miss Woodward. This selection
had the charm of novelty to most of
the audience, and perhaps partly for
that reason was received with a little
more warmth than some of the proceed
ng declarations. Ada Westfall re-
cited an unhackneyed humorous
sketch, "A Welsh Classic" in an un-
affected and pleasing way, SO that
none of the humor of the story was
lost in the telling. The last of the
young ladies to compete was Mary
jackson. Jean Ingelow's pathetic tale
of the high tide on the coast of Lin
colnshire was her theme. Though
somewhat familiar, the recitation is a
difficult one, and that the difficulties
we're overcome in the main speaks we'll
for the training and perseverance Of
the pupil.

THE HIGHEST AWARD.

THE HIGHEST AWARD.
Royal Baking Powder Has all the
Honors---In Strength and Value
20 Per Cent Above its Nearest
Competitor,
The Royal Baking Powder has the
enviable record of having received the
highest award for articles of it's class
greatest strength, purest ingredients,
most perfectly combined wherever
exhibited in competition with others.
In the exhibitions of former years, at
the Centennial, at Paris, Vienna and
at the various State and Industrial
fairs, where it has been exhibited,
judges have invariably awarded the
Royal Baking Powder the highest
honors.
At the recent Worlds Fair the ex-
amlnations for the baking powder
awards were made by the experts of
the chemical division of the Agricul-
tural Department at Washington. The
official report of the tests of the bak-
ing powders which we're made by this
Department for the specific purpose
of ascertaining which was the best,and
which has been made public, shows
the leavening strength of the Royal
to be 100 cubic inches of carbonic gas
per ounce of powder. OF the cream
of tartar baking powders exhibited, the
