Sibley Gazette.
Earnest Perry was brought home
from Hamlin, ILL.,, again, Tuesday.
It was thought the treatment was
doing him no good at the institute, so
it was useless to stay.-Sibley
Tribune. =
M. E. Foley, one Of the bright,
young attorneys of Adrian, called on
the ADVANCE Monday, while in town
on legal business. He says his town
is making a good showing in the way
of improvements this spring.
The Rev. F. w. White will hold
service in the Episcopal church on
Friday evening of this week at 7:45
o'clock. A cordial invitation is ex-
tended to all to attend these services
held on the second and fourth Friday
evenings of each month.
Rev. G. Brown of Mansfield, Ohio,
called on the ADVANCE Wednesday.
Mr.. Brown has been subscriber of
the ADVANCE for % years, and hopes
to takeyit for another % years. He
is making a tour of the western coun-
try. We highly enjoyed visit with
him
This office received a pleasant
call last Saturday from Robert Shore,
of Ransom. Mr. Shores writings
have frequently been published in
the ADV ANcE, much to the pleasure
and edifcation of it's readers. Mr.. S.
is a deep thinker, and a writer of
ability.
The Adrian Democrat has this to
say of our popular preacher, Rev. Mr..
Lumm: Rev, Lumm filled the Pres
byterian pulpit last Sunday
evening. The Democrat is pleased to
announce that arrangements have
been made whereby Rev. Lumm will
preach in Adrian every Sunday even
ing. He is very interesting speaker
and an earnest work er, and it is hoped
that he will be greeted by large con-
gregations.
"A shrewd preacher advocating the
support of charitable object pre-
faced tn e circulation of the contribu-
ton boxes with this remark:
"From the great sympathy have
witnessed in your countenances, there
is only one thing I am afraid Of
that some of you may feel inclined to
givetoo much. Now, it is my duty to
inform you that justice should always
be a prior virtue to generosity, there
fore wish to have it thoroughly un-
derstood that no person will think of
putting anything into the box who
cannot pay his debts" The result
was an OVERLOOKING collection.
In the sShrine Pick-ups" in the
Mankato Free Press we find this ref
erence to Worthington's big, hand
some mayor: Hon. Dan Shell, of
Worthington, arrived astride the
camel on schedule time this after
noon. It is understood that he will
lead the ungainly animal to the point
of extreme danger and here turn him
over to one less ponderous in stature.
Dan Shell always gets a snap, and
one of the really nice oneswas accord
ed him this afternoon in the parade.
He was the one selected from the great
number of Shriners to occupy the car
rage with the only female attired
member of the outfit. Dan always
was n oted for his fascinating appear
ance and affable mannerism, hence
the selection. The bewitching
smiles of the curly haired dame, as
the carriage rolled down Front street,
were strikingly taking.
