Assessors of Lyra and Sterling Find
Some Time Pieces.

The county board at it's last meet
ing adopted resolution requesting
the auditor to notify the assessors of
Sterling, Lyra and the village of Good
Thunder and the village of Amboy, of
their neglect in returning no watches
or clocks from the first named three
places and no dogs from AmbOy, and
that proper correction must be made
by Aug. 1st, or proceedings of law
would be instituted to compel such
correction. Mr.. GunderS gave the
proper notice and it has generally
been complied with.
G. W. Graf, assessor of Lyra and
Good Thunder, found 81 clocks and
watches, the total value of which he
places at S57, which he says is high.
Thos. Howieson, assessor of Sterling,
found 10 watches and clocks, valued
at $3S.
HI. S. Slower, assessor of Amboy, re-
ports that the owners of dogs there
are so poor that their property is ex-

dogs to assess.

flax Tuesday and secured a yield of

the acre on the average, so bushels of
oats and Is bushels of flax. He says
that all the crops are first class and
the people in good spirits. Corn in

ABBOTT-BUCk.
A Happy Event to Take Place this
Evening.

At eight o'clock this evening, at the
residence Of the brides parents, Judge
and Mrs. Daniel Buck, at 100 Hanover
street, will occur the marriage of Mr..
William Lincoln Abbott, of st. Paul,
and Miss Laura May Buck. The cere-
mony will be simple one owing to
the rather recent death Of Mr.. Alb
bolts father, and will be performed
by Rev. n. H. Bell. of St. Paul. 1t
will be witnessed by about sixty
guests, who are either relatives of the
contracting parties, or close friends.
When an opportunity has been given
all to express their congratulations
and Well-wishes, and to examine the
many expensive wedding gifts, the
entire party will sit down to a delici-
Gus repast, prepared under the super
vision of Mrs. Buck.
Mr.. and Mrs. Abbott will take the
IL 80 p. m. train on the Omaha road
for San Diego, California, where they
will make their future home. They
will take the Santa Fe route, and on
their arrival there Mr.. Abbott will
engage in the newspaper business, if
present expectations are carried out.
Mr.. Abbott is a most excellent
young man, Industrious, manly, of
correct habits, and one who is bound
to succeed anywhere. He comes from
an excellent family who have resided
at Madison, Wis, Redwood Falls, and
ST. Paul. Mr.. Abbott ST. was formerly
in the government printing Office at
Washington, d. G. w. L. Abbott has
been engaged in the newspaper bust
mes for several years, and was men,
Der of the FREE Press force at one
time, and it was during his residence
in this city at that time that he met
Miss Buck and the friendship was
formed between them which soon
ripened into warm affection.
The bride to be is one of the favor
lite young ladies of Mankato, and
prominent in social circles. She has
grown to womanhOOd in this city, and
her many estimable qualities have at
tracted to her the warmest friend
ship of all who enjoy her acQuaint-
ance. All will regret to lose her, but
the social realm Of San Diego will
profit at Mankato's expense. . Il Il
The FREE PRESS joins their other
friends in extending its best wishes to
Mr.. and Mrs. Abbott, and hopes that
prosperity, health and happiness may
attend them through life.

Lake and making that headquar-
tiers. The other night fifteen tramps
came to their house and one imper-
sonated policeman and attempted
to arrest one of the peddlers. The
latter discovered the ruse and to scare
the tramps away shot into the air.
Two of the party went to the village
and informed the authorities and the
sheriff and marshal and some men
from the hotel went out to see what
was the matter. The peddlers did
not believe the marshal was the officer
he claimed to be, and said they had
been fooled once, and if he was an
officer he could come next day when
it was light. They then fired into the
air to scare the party away. The
officers returned the fire and badly
wounded two of the peddlers. One of

MOVING OUR OFFICE.
1t is Accomplished Without Delay or
Accident.

The work of moving into our new
office began in earnest yesterday af-
ternoon, and the entire force spent
last evening at the work, with the re-
suit that about half the stock and ap-
planes were moved. This included
the part used in the publication Of
the paper, and this morning editors
and typos went to work in their new
quarters. The day has been taken
up in moving the stock, and by the
end of the week we hope to have
everything Strengthened around and
in its proper and permanent place.
BY that time also the finishing
touches on the building will be near
ly done, and the pounding and con-
fusion which has surrounded us for
the past few days will be well over.
Carpenters have been at work in both
the old and new buildings this week,
but it is source of pride to US that
the DAILY FREE PRESS has appeared
punctually each day and shorn of
none of its many interesting features.
And this in spite of the necessary re-
peated readjustings of the machinery
to get it to working smoothly on it's
new foundation.
AS soon as we are fully settled, we
shall be pleased to see our friends and
show them the model newspaper
plant in the northwest.

these was Saleem Bouthen, who was
wounded in the leg, and the other was
Salmoon Farees, who was wounded in
the breast.
Thaddous Kouri, the head of the
colony in this city, went to Heron
Lake to look into the matter. The
county is paying for the care of the
wounded men. They consulted attor-
neys relative to bringing suit against
the village, but owing to the cost and
having no money they abandoned the
idea. The two wounded men have
been in this city, but are not in the
employ of Mr.. Kouri.
