A baby boy was born to Rev. and
Mrs. McHenry, of Delhi, shortly after
noon last Monday.
A. B. Smith, special agent of the
Citizens Fire Association, of Mankato,
secured several risks here Tuesday.
Editor H. L. Henry, of the New
Ulm News, deputy internal revenue
collector, was in this city last Monday.
John let and wife, of Brownton,
Mimi, formerly of this place, we're in
the city during the early part of the
week. Mr.. Ilet once owned part of
land on which the gold finds have
been made, and his eye is turned that
way with great deal of interest.
An item in the Lamberton Leader
says that w. w. Kelly has sold his
farm to a Mr.. Ruddy, of Roberts, ILL.,,
who will take possession in the spring.
Mr.. Ruddy will engage in the bust
ness of raising sheep and hogs. He
is no amateur at that business and is
aware of the profits and work there is
in attending to it. While We are sor-
ry to lose Mr.. Kelly from among us
we are glad to get in his place a man
like Mr.. Ruddy.
Granite Tribune: ID. E. Laird
and Eugene Drake drove over from
Redwood Falls Saturday evening, re-
turning Sunday. They visited Mr..
Laird's sister, Mrs. B. E. Nelson, and
friends. The Misses Huntington and
Baldwin returned with them" The
appearances of the above party were
favorable to substituting Charlie
Luscher for Mr.. Drake, and The Ga
zETTE intended Mr.. Drake no harm or
injury when it stated that Charlie was
the favored one.
Among the items relative to the
cyclone of last Saturday in Southern
Minnesota and North, IN Iowa, was
one announcing that the Caswell House
at Leroy had been blown down and
burned. This hotel was built of
brick many years ago when Leroy
was founded by the late father of
Aid. w. R. Caswell, of this city. His
parents ran the hotel for many years.
Mr.. Caswell states that the estate had
no interests in the hotel property and
that relatives residing in that vicinity
are not among the number reported
dead and missing.
Miss Horace Greedy Perry, of the
St. Peter Journal, suffered very Sc
we're accident and shock on last We'd
nesday evening, according to the Her
aid. She was riding a bicycle with
other lady friends and while riding
somewhat rapidly three of them came
together, and she was thrown to the
ground with such force as to render
her unconscious for several hours
Physicians were called and restora-
tives applied, and it took some time
before she came out from the delir-
ium. It was narrow escape, and il
was indeed fortunate that it was not
worse.
The fair association has certainly
been in great luck, so far as weather
is concerned. Thursday and Friday
were both beautiful days, except from
about three o'clock on the latter day
when a light rain set in, but not until
after the attendance was as good as il
would have been had the weather
been fair all day. The rain continued
at regular intervals all of Friday night
and Saturday morning, and the
weather turned disagreeably cold or
the latter day. 1t remained so unit
Sunday forenoon, when the clouds
broke away and the sun absorbed por
ton of the dampness in the ground.
Judge Webber will probably have
to take hand in the French Peter
son Senatorial contest. In Brown
county Peterson got his certificate q
nomination filed first, having boy or
a bicycle to carry it to New Ulm. Or
the next day, Auditor Krook, who ap
pears to be of the Peterson faith, re-
luctantly accepted the certificate Of
nomination of E. D. French from DR.
E. A. Lyman and John Lind. This
gives the Republicans two nominees
on the official ballot in that county. In
the meantime Auditor Anderson drove
from Sleepy Eye in the darkness Of
last Thursday night, and at eight
o'clock last Friday morning, filed the
certificate of nomination of E. D
