mated with gold and silver, Is being

equipped principal.
A small blaze in q manure pile next
to King Bros barn, last Thursday,
called out the department, but before
the couplings we're made, which we're
on short notice, the fire was extin-
guished. The fire probably originated
from firecrackers,o or from spontaneous
combustion.
Thos. Griffin reports quite large
number of wheat fields being plowed
in the towns of Delhi, Kintire and
Sheridan. He says that it would not
have threshed bushel per acre. He
contends that this is the dryest time
Redwood county has ever seen.
Sheriff Blethen assisted Sheriff
Glynn, of Blue Earth county, in
arresting ]. NJ. Baum, a coal miner at
this place, on the charge of selling
mortgaged property belonging to G..
w. Allyn, Of Madison Lake, last Fri
day. The property consisted of q
stove and other household goods.
Baum was taken to Mankato and
lodged in Jail to await his hear
ing. The offence charged is an in
dictable one. Baum is the MIN who
pretended to buy the Washington

ran various accounts, creating a SEN
sation at the time.
The G. A. r. concerts at the opera
house on Tuesday and Wednesday,
July "a and Is, under the supervision
of Prof. w. A. Milne, will outclass al
most anything ever before presented
in this city. Just think of rs trained
voices in the chorus; of side-splitting,
soul-stirring plantation melodies; reg
mental drill in uniforms, brilliant
tableaux, fascination fan drill by six
teen young ladies in elegant costume;
and then a roaring burlesque on the
fan drill, all winding up with all ma
tons honoring old glory, the Ameri-
can flag. There will be an entertain
ment to please everybody. Watch the
next issue of this paper for further
particulars.
At a meeting of the Board of Eduss
cation last Monday evening COM
mendable step was taken by the fol-
lowing out of the rule of giving home
teachers the preference where ability
is equal. The Board at that time Sc
lected Miss Ellen Wilson, the daugh-
ter of ex-County Treasurer Wilson, as
teacher of the second primary depart
ment, and Miss Luella Turrell, daugh-
ter OF Hon. o. B. Turrell, as teacher
OF the fifth grade, a position formerly
occupied by Miss Bell. Miss Wilson's
department is the new one created by
the Board about a month ago. Both
of these young ladies are graduates
from the Redwood Falls high school,
while Miss Turrell is also graduate
from Carleton college. They will IN
doubtedly give satisfaction as teacher
in our public schools.
Brown county, around New Ulm, is
having a chinch bug siege. Editor
johnson, of the Review, informed a
GAZETTE reporter, last Wednesday,
that the little worms had destroyed
every field of grain around that city,
and were now going for the corn in a
most relentless manner. Prof. Otto
Luger, the incubator, is at work
around that city, but the warm
weather is not conducive to his sys-
tenn, and the determination is slow.
Farmers around there also view his
system of incubation and extermina-
ton with distrust, and refuse, in many
cases, to bring the bugs into the town
for incubation, by which system, after
the inoculated bugs are freed, the
germ is carried to others, and pro-
duces death to all. As yet Redwood
county seems to be free from the little
destroyers.
On last Monday Judge Weber fled
with Clerk of Court Byram decree
of divorce in the case of Mamie Ger
raghty VS.. Lawrence Gerraghty, the
ex-fruit dealer in this city. The de-
PENDANT made no answer to the sum.
