Ponca JOurnal.-The many friends
OF N. s. Rozell were surprised and
grieved to learn Of his sudden death.
which occurred here this morning at 10
O'Clock. He was taken dangerously
i'll yesterday, but the nature of his
sickness and exact cause OF his death
are not known. His mother and father
and two brothers were at his bedside
when he gave his last breath. MI.
ROzell was 81 years Of age and was the
oldest OF five brothers and one sister.
He was a prosperous and popular
tailor and had practiced his trade here
during about four years. His remains
were conveyed to the home Of his
parents this afternoon and the funeral
services will be held there next Sun
day at 2 O'Clock p. m. and will be con-

Plain Talk Of yermillion.-In an in
terview at Sioux Falls a few days ago
Major Wilcox OF 1ankton declared
that the money for the railroad extern
sion from Lemars to Yankton has al
ready been raised, and that the road
would be completed before fall. It is
to be built, not by the Illinois Central
company, but by an independent COM
pany. This is being done by the Ill;-
nOis Central to evade an agreement
which they made with the Milwaukee
and Northwestern roads not to enter
this territory for a term OF years. 1t
was by this sort Of evasion that the
Great Northwestern went into Yank-
ton after having agreed not to do so.
The Illinois Central knows this is
good picking here and has long wanted
to take advantage of it. 1t seems that
this year is fixed for the building of
the road.
Plain Talk Of Vermillion.-Jens a.
Ven and Miss Betsy Ranum were mar
ried last Thursday, the 18th of Nav,
which is the national holiday OF the
Norwegians in commemoration of their
independence. The wedding took
place at Mr.. VEINS splendid farm north
OF Richland and about 800 guests were
present: A large tent was put up and
inside the guests gathered at tables
which were loaded with the very finest
edibles. 1t took four hours, from 3
to Z O'Clock, to serve the guests with
dinner. A house full Of presents were
showered upon the couple, aside from
thousand of good wishes. Mr.. Ven is
one OF the richest farmers in Union
county and Miss Ranum is highly es-
teemed here, where she has made her
home for several years. A number of
guests from Vermillion were in attend
ance at the wedding.

MI. VERNON REGENTs.-As stated
IN yesterdays GAZETTE that day was
SET apart by the regents, now in session
at Mt. Vernon, as q fete day in honor OF
the visit of Gov. O'Ferrall, of Virginia,
Who was accompanied by Col. Robert
Washington. Mr.. Taylor Berry and 9TH
er members of the board of visitors.
The annual visit is made by the board
for the purpose of inspecting the
grounds and buildings TO see if the Mt.
Vernon Ladies' Association is satlsiac-
torily fulfilling lis mission of restoring
and preserving the home OF the first
President. This is solely q matter OF
form. After a tour of the interesting
place the Governor met the regents in
council in the afternoon and heard re-
ports of the work accomplished and
projected. He expressed warm com
incubation of the efforts of the regents,
and commented particularly on their
success in restoring the old coach-house
aad preserving other buildings from
rim by timely repairs made in the past
year. The regents have several pro-
iects in view for the coming year for
the improvemcnt,of Mt. Vernon. one
Of these is to complete the sanitary
drainage in the swamp land. 1t is pro-
posed either to erect a water-wall or to
form . lake in Inc swamp-land for the
preservation OF the river banks from
destruction. The regents, having COM
pleted the restoration of the coach
house, are desir6us of placing in it one
of the old Washington coaches as a fin.
ishing touch to the work, 1t is thought
that a clue has been found TO the
whereabouts of one OF these coaches,
which. it is said, has been used in q cir
Gus. Since discovering this trace it has
been learned that the coach was proba-
BLK destroyed in a wreck OF some of the
circus paraphernalia. If 50 the ladies
will bend their energies to the discovery
ofanother Washington coach which Is
said to be in existence. The regents
will continue their session to-day.

he saw no reason for a groovei rail
here.
Mr.. Kraft withdrew his amendment.
MIR. *. then introduced an amend
ment requiring the removal of the rails
from Fairfax street as o as the road
shall be completed on Royal street. He
did not think that two streets should be
INSTRUCTED.
MIR. Evans thought that the people
OF Fairfax street should be heard from
before the amendment is considered.
Mr.. Thompson urged that the people
of the First ward wished the track to
continue on Fairfax street.
MI. Snowden said that the people of
Fairfax street had walked a long time
and they did not wish to forego the
privilege of riding now.
Mr.. Kraft withdrew that amend
ment also: and the report of the COM
mittee was adopted.
A letter from MI. J. n. Harper ask
ing reduction of taxes was referred to
the finance committee on the motion OF
Mr.. Cation with direction to enforce the
collection oftaxes.
The chair said that at the meeting of
the County Supervisors yesterday their
attorney was instructed to contest the
right of the city to place the Hydrau-
lion engine house on the court house
lot. The supervisors seemed willing
for an amicable arrangement, and he
moved that a committee of five be ap-
pointed to confer with them on the sub
ject.
Mr.. Cation said he had, when clerk
of this board, prepared a bill for a par
tition of the court house lot. He
thought that some difficulty would oc-
cur relative to the proportion to which
each party is entitled.
Mr.. Kraft said "When we get
through 1 think we will be sorry we
did not buy a lot elsewhere"
Mr.. Snowden thought the supervisors
would make an amicable arrangement.
The resolution was adopted and
Messrs. Cation, Kraft and Burke ap-
pointed the committee.
Mr.. KrafIt moved to call up the bill
taxing sewer connections, but withdrew
his motion.
Mr.. Cation asked what had become of
the bill creating a city engineer. I'm
less it was acted upon soon it would be
swcated out by the heated term.
The chair hoped that there would be
no sweating process tonight.
No other business called out debate
and the board adjourned.

for State. auditor. As long as life
lasts we shall cherish each and

see fit to ratify the action of the
convention by electing us to the
honorable and responsible position
of State auditor we will endeavor
to prove to our friends that we are
worthy of the confidence they have
reposed in us, and it will be the
height of our ambition to dis
charge the duties of the office in
such a manner as to meet with the
approval of honest men of all
parties. ..

WELL, Dunn got there, and now,
alas, "Bob" will be as beastly radical
as the worst of 'em. st. Cloud Times.
You are laboring under a delu-
sion, Bro. Macdonald. Our opin-
ions are our own. We will be no
more radical now than we ever
we're. We will labor for the sue
cess of the entire Republican ticket
because we believe in the princi-
Piles enunciated in the platform Of
that party in this State, and be-
cause we believe the candidates of
the party are worthy of our sup
port. But at the same time those
who look for virulent abuse of the
opposition in the columns of the
UNION will be disappointed.
