set sail on a torpedo boat or cruiser
for some ocean point, probably the
Samoan Islands, again, during the
next two weeks. Lieut.. Beecher was
on a naval expedition to that place at
the time of the Samoan troubles last

I. NJ. Olson left Redwood Falls for
Sleepy Eye, his future home, last
Monday. Mr.. Olson's stay here was
brief, but during that time here he
made no enemies and many friends.

mistake in quitting his practice here,
even to enter into a partnership with
brilliant Geo. Somerville.

"Judging from all I hear" cleverly
remarked a humorous wife last Fri
day, "the boys of this town want to

they go on another drive that will

times inside of an hour, of his lady
companion, whether she was suffer-
ing with cold"
The gilded palace of shame, more
luminous by night than active by day,
which has been an eyesore to many
and the abode of few, just across
the Northwestern railroad tracks, was
closed up by the sheriff and police
last week, the county. attorney not
having sufficient evidence to warrant
an arrest. The hayward fairies, {"
who have caused many a heart to
worry, took trains for St. Paul, where
they are allowed greater scope.
Fred V. Hotchkiss, formerly of this
place, but now of Hotch City, South
Dakota, was in the city on Friday and
Saturday of last week. Mr.. Hotchkiss
is the founder of the TOWNSHIP above
named. He thinks that South Dakota
does not compare with this section of
Minnesota for beauty and thrift. At
one time Mr.. Hotchkiss was President
of the village council of this place,and
drafted, in great measure, nearly all
the ordinances of the now village
which has since given away to the
city. He is greatly surprised at the
progress Redwood Falls has made
during the last eight ars,and thinks
for beauty and solidity we have no
equal.
