SHORT TALES OF THE WEEK.

Spring, gentle Annie.
Winters hoary locks have disap-
peared.
Soft, balmy spring has melted them
away.
Clean up. Preventive is the best
cure, sure.
The influx into Redwood Falls has
already commenced.
Street Commissioner Athey now has
job cleaning streets.
Miss Ada Adams has private
physical culture class.
DR.. E. L. Halves spent several days
during the past week in Mankato, re-
turning home Tuesday evening.
S. S. Drake, the popular postmaster
and harness maker at Echo, was Wis
iting with his brother, George Drake,
during the past week.
Paul Koska and John Morrow were
fined SIS and costs for getting drunk
last Monday. Koska is doing time in
the city lookup while Morrow has left

Miss Mayme Nockels returned from
her visit among Hastings and St. Paul
friends and relatives, last Tuesday,
and is again trimming hats and bon
nets in the latest styles at Jackson's
millinery store.
Belview Independent: The county
attorney question is decided at last.
S. L. Pierce, of St. Paul, who has been
holding the Office since Madigan's re-
signation, has resigned, and the COM
missioners have appointed his son, w.
L. Pierce, to the Office. This is lit
tie better, as the latter gentleman is a
resident of this county: but it looks
bad to see so late resident appointed
over old attorneys, who have been in
the county long enough to get onto
the ropes.

cussed by the pupils in civil and
parliamentary manner, and not like the
lower house of congress has been dis
cussing subjects for several weeks

Treasurer Kuenzli was somewhat
surprised last Monday to receive bill
of exchange on the Merchants Nation
al Bank, of Chicago, for one cent. It

lice, from the Attorney General.
The band boys were out serenading
again last Saturday afternoon. Their
sweet music was but the harbinger of
spring, little in advance of the robin
with his silvery notes and gentle hop,
pleasing language that drove care
and trouble away for few brief mo-
ments,and was appreciated by large
crowd of visitors in town at the time.
1t is crack little musical organiza-
ton that we are proud and jealous of,
and we don't want to give another
member of it to some other town.
The st. Peter Journal, speaking of
recommitting the insane patients in
the asylum at that place, says that on
Monday morning three patients, two
male and one female, from Redwood
Falls, were before Judge Peterson's
court. Christian Christensen and
Joseph Bittson were recommitted
without doubt or serious investigation.
Upon examination of Mrs. Rudh, how
ever, the court and physicians seemed
puzzled. The woman is of modest
disposition and speaks SO intelligent
ly that there is no visible signs of in
sanity about her. She was recommit-
ted, however, as it was considered the
wisest and safest way.

shot struck Fred little above the
right eye and knocked him down. The
wound bledquite freely and for a time
it was feared that the eye was. injured.
The discovery of coal at Redwood
Falls, says the Mankato Free Press,
with the promise of extensive develop
ment, open up new possibilities for
Mankato, as a manufacturing city.
If coal can be delivered in Mankato
cheaply, this will be great induce
ment for manufactures to locate here.
and the abundant railroad facilities
here makes this city the most desir-
able in Southern Minnesota for this
purpose. With a little improvement
of the Minnesota river between this
city and Redwood Falls, coal barges
could be foated down and the cost of
transportation would be very light.
Indeed, during the high water of
spring enough could be brought here
to last year, if necessary. OF course,
this would depend upon the kind of
coal found at Redwood Falls. The
kind first brought to the surface did
not stand exposure to the air, but it
is believed that better kind has been
found. The McKinleys have leased
800 acres and will go to work taking
out coal in q business like way.

This Next. Attraction.

On Thursday evening we are to
have the celebrated comedy drama
A Wife's Devotion, which is replete
with strong dramatic situations and
a comedy vein that will more than
please. Between the acts Miss
Mollie Stockmeyer will introduce
an original fantastic dance. 1t Is
understood that this young lady can
more than satisfy those who are
longing for something artistic from
a terpsichorean standpoint. Man
ager Daley has decided to have his
first family matinee on Saturday,
October 18th, when Dan'l Sully's
delightful comedy Corner Grocery
will be presented.

A man strikes a red
pepper in his soup he receives an
impression. and impressions are
lasting. How can we impress 1t
upon you that it is really your duty
to trade with Us, that our prices and
service are better than elsewhereF
Perhaps we can impress you IN this
way: Money talks, talks cents too.
1t persuades the stubborn and con-
vinces the skeptic. We know OF no
such pleader as a LOW PRICE
and we have tried to make its voice
heard in every nook and corner or
our store. 1t would only tire you II
we gave you list of the many
different articles we have just recelv-
ed per "Senta" from England, Amy
Turner" from New York, and the
1Rithet" and Australia" from San
Francisco, but we have the goods,
and If you call on US you will get an
impression or two. First, they are
FIRST-CLASS and second, that our
prices are LOW.
For that tired feeling-not Hoods
Sarsaparilla, but more exercise-a
gun, rifle, or boat if you take it
out Of doors, or dumbbells, chest
| weights, ETC., if indoors Our shot
guns range from S12 to 500 in price,
but we find the $50 gun gives just
about the right amount of exercise
for this climate-that is we judge so
from the way they sell. After using
one of our Winchester Military
Rifles till you can get inside an s.
inch bulls eye, out of 10 shots, you
will find not only is the tired feeling
gone, but you have learned to be
cool and careful-things that will
serve you we'll in other ways than
rifle shooting.
Have you heard of the story of the
Irishman? He bought apples for one
cent and sold them for two and said
he made one per cent. profit. We do
J not commit business suicide by try
| ing to make the Irishman's one per
cent.
If you prefer boating and yachting
TO shooting, you will find we have
most of the material needed to
either build a yacht or boat or keep
it in repair when built, and you do
not have to buy any more than you
need, as we have everything handy to
retail as we'll as wholesale.
BETTER fence wire is now made
than ever before and as POOR fence
wire is now made as ever has been

WORST. We sell the GOOD KIND

wire. We have plenty now, but viii
soon have lot of the best in the
world and it will pay you to wal
for it.

occurred from the effects of Apo
plexy. Judge Cooper is at present
on a vacation trip to California.

lie was a man of apparently robust con-
Btltutlon, and the news of his death which
was rapidly communicated about the ho-

to his many aequaintances. As he had

in the full vigor of health, the fact of his
death was difficult of confirmation.
