St. Peter Tribune: A late discovery
at Redwood Falls, reveals the fact
that the entire town is resting on a
solid body of lead ore and natural gas.
Lots have advanced to fabulous prices,
and it is firmly believed that ere
many days a mine of insanity will be
unearthed. * The gold and
silver quartz at Redwood Falls assay
ed SILL per ton. That's very good in
deed, for beginning. The paint
mines near Olivia are of great import
ance and must prove a bonanza.
There's millions in it.

An extract from the letter Of St.
Peter girl to friend in Redwood,
Falls: while B. was here we visited,
the hospital, and saw that freak. I
suppose you have heard about him.
He is big fat man, and he has BEEN
asleep for about two months. They
feed him milk, as he will not chew
solid food. l think it is about the
strangest case l ever saw. One week
he gained two pounds. B. thought he
was having too much of a snap, sleep
ing all the time. She said she would
like to change places with him for a
while. DIR. Baker told us that one
morning he awoke, got up, washed
and dressed himself, and talked with
all the doctors,and at noon they asked
him what he would like for dinner, land
he said "a glass of milk" After he
had his dinner" he said he felt rather
tired and guessed he would lay down
for while. They tried to keep him
up and awake. but it was impossible.
He went to sleep and has been in that
condition ever since. >: 1 have
been trying to persuade father to
move to Redwood. l get real enthusi-
astic on the subject at times, but all
