in that State and on recovering he
came to Mankato, where he left Mrs.
Abbott temporarily, and then came
on to Redwood Falls. Mr.. Abbott
has been thinking seriously of start

that his embryo intentions will assume
definite shape. -

H. N. Bell, Redwood's oldest
furniture dealer, made an assignment
for the benefit of his creditors yester-
day morning. O. L. Dornberg is the
assignee. The assets will reach near
ly $4,000 and the liabilities will not
exceed over $1,000. The furniture
creditors have not over $500 while
the Citizens Bank has claim of be-
tween $500 and $500. Mr.. Bell be-
came interested in real estate with
other parties several years ago. He

should alone participate in the bene

undertaking as Mr.. Bell will continue
in that branch of the business.

senger agent of the St. Louis system
vice F. P Rutherford, has somewhat
