One of the strange things is that the
severest critics of the Re GIsTER. the
men who always have some fault tC
find with every issue, are those who
have no means of seeing the paper
except by borrowing it. 1t is the
people who don't take it who have the
hardest things to say about it and its
editor.
VIM. y. Kline with his wife (who
was formerly Miss Nolie Miller) and
little girl, ale here this week on a Wis
it to Mrs. Kinne's parents. Mr.. Kline
was elected treasurer of Lake county,
Mich, at the late election. He is a
pleasant gentleman and his wife's

Mr.. J. ROsenberger informs us that
the item in last weeks North Maple
Grove letter, to the effect that his son
| Frank, who is going to school in Wis
consin. had broken his leg and would
return home, is not entirely correct

continuing his studies, aud will re-

Gin answer to invitations about
twenty of the friends of Miss
Mable Thomas gathered at her home

the fun began. y big, noisy time was

l/As Capt. Slower was going down
town Saturday night he noticed a
blaze of light in the parlor of the Le
land hotel and upon going in to dis
cover what it was, found that the
bowl of a lighted lamp sitting on the
organ had cracked and the oil was on
fire. The lamp was thrown out of
the window and no serious damage
resulted. A few minutes more of de-
lay. however, would have told a diff
ferent story

ure become a custom in Kansas, ev en-
Senator Ingalls's "irridescent drea M
might come true.
The sheriff has been busy this week
serving the warrants issued upon in
dictments found by the grand jury.
Twenty-three warrants were issued
altogether. all of them for miSdemean-

Usage township, who are big enough

better have been arrested for disturb

number of old often iers have been ar
rested at Humboldt for selling whis-
key. All of those thus far arrested
have given bond for their appearance
at the next term of the District Court.

only of the machine itself, which
speaks for itself, but also of the gen.
tlemen who are selling it. 1t looks as
if they had faith in their own machine
