Last evening the students of the
Red Wing Commercial College, to-
gether with large number of their
friends, assembled en- mdsse at the
college rooms, it being the anniver.
sary of Prof. u. Curtis's birth. A
message from the instructor of the
evening classes secured the prompt APP
pearance of Prof. Curtis, who, uncon-
scious of what was going on, walked
innOCently into the ambush prepared
for him. and we are putting it mild
when we say he was taken completely
by surprise. The assembly having
been seated, one of the students, G. r..
Murphy of Wisconsin, in behalf of the
school, stepped forward and, in few
well chosen words expressive of the
high esteem in which he. Prof. Cur.
It's, was held by his pupils as an in
structor, and of the pride the pupils
felt for the institution which he had
helped TO found, presented him with a
beautiful writing desk and bookcase
combined. The professor was deeply
moved by this unexpected manifesto
ton of regard on the part of the stud.
ents and, in response said he had done
nothing more than bis duty, and, in
accepting their present should regard
it as purely token of friendship.
These exercises being over, the re.
mainder of the evening was spent in
pleasant sociability. and all went home
at an early hour well pleased with the
result of the evening.--Red Wing
Daily Republican.

Saccharine is a product of coal tar,
and is said to be the coming substi-
tute for sugar. 1t has none of the
bulk of sugar, and is three hundred
times sweeter. It was discovered in
1875 by DR.. Fahlberg, Russian by
birth, but who had been educated in
Germany. He became connected with
the John Hopkins University in Balti-
more, and while there he conducted a
series of experiments, and the result
was the discovery of saccharine.
Saecharine in its pure condition is Il
white powder. Various exclusive ad.
vantages are claimed for it. 1t is
harmless; is so small in bulk that the
saving in storage and freight will be
great; it is a valuable antiseptic, and
it is especially available in preserving
as well as sweetening articles of food,
distilling of liquors, and for medicinal
purposes. Some idea of its power
may be gained from the fact that one
part of sacchrile will give a very
sweet taste to ten thousand parts OF
water

An exchange says the law concern
ing stray animals is not as we'll known
as it should be. If you take up a
stray animal you must, within ten
days, give notice to your township
clerk, who must make an entry of the
same; then you advertise the animal
in your local paper, and go days after
such advertisement has appeared you
apply to justice of the peace to sell
the animal. lie issues a warrant to
the constable, who gives ten days no.
tice by posters, then he sells il and
you get your pay for expenses. The
penalty for taking stray animal and
not giving notice is SIS; and besides
the owner can come upon your place
and take it away without paying you
anything.

The proper way to do is to always
keep few extra pigs, colt or two
extra, some growing steers or heifers
to spare. There is always something
of market for these things; they are
always worth their keeping for home

high prices. The same is true of

well as wheat. and some years a great
deal better. --Hauock NeUs.
