Marshall Reporter: The delegates

E. society convention at Redwood, re-
port a most profitable and pleasant
time in that city.
In response as to what Office he
would be candidate for this fall, MIR.

w. F. Dickinson and Judge Bowers
returned from Granite Falls last Fri
day night. They we're in attendance
at court there,an secured a judgment
of over 81 600 in favor of the Bank of
Redwood Falls and against the Wall

Owing to Rey. l.. L. Hanscom be-
ing at Red Rock camp meeting last
Sunday Mrs. G.. w. Lutz, wife of Rev.
Lutz, of Wood Lake, occupied the
pulpit at the Methodist church last
Sunday evening. Her remarks were
listened to by large crowd.
In the neighborhood of sixty Red
woodites attended the funniest at
New ::Ulm last Sunday. The crowd
was an orderly one, as was the entire
large crowd present in that city. All
those who attended from here say
that New Ulm fairly outdid herself in
entertaining and caring for the visitors.
As an illustration of the fact that
Miss Della j. Long, elementary
science teacher, will be great attrac-
ton at the summer training school at
this place, it is only necessary to state
that Saltwater has attempted to trade
another very fine training teacher for
Miss Long, but Supt. Race intends to
stick to 1.-The first love-" and Miss
Long will come to Redwood.

is partial and oats total failure.
Ten bushels per acre would be high
average on the Redwood county wheat
crop for 1894.
Jacob Martin, who some time ago,
was arrested at Morgan for attempt
ing to shoot his father-in-law, and was
afterwards released on condition that
he would leave the State, died recent
~ in Winona county. 1t will also be
remembered that Martin had COM
menced suit to recover his land, which
was decided to one of the Dittbenners
on condition that they would not ap-
pear against him. His death of course,
will stop the suit, and the land will
probably go to his wife, daughter of
John Dittbenner.
A Granite Falls correspondent
writes in protest to the conduct of four
young Redwoodites in that city week
ago last Sunday. Itappears that two
young men of this city, in company
with two girls, got livery from
Barnes Bros. with view to going to
Belview, but drove through to Granite
Falls. Here the four got gay, and
some shrewd Granite bucks stole the
girls away from the boys. The boys
we're looking for their companions up
to IL o'clock that night,when the stol-
en- property was returned, and the
