invitation to Santa Claus. In one
corner stands Christmas tree neatly
trimmed with candles, etc. The drap-
cry hangings are superb. The whole

! It was reported here yesterday that
Harry Stewart, formerly of the North
: western stub running into this city.
was a party to a sensation at Win
throp last week. 1t appears, if the story
is correct, that Harry has been oper-
ating in Winthrop under an assumed
! name for some time prior to last week.
: During his stay there he fell in with
a girl, one of the prominent young
ladies of that town. On Wednesday
of last week they eloped, if the
story is correct. Harry was married
a number of years ago to a young
Minneapolis girl. What has become
of her is not known.
Andrew Stewart was paid ST. ,22O of
Emil Schmahls money on last Mon
3 day. In return Andrew has already
delivered 81 head Of hogs and is to
3 deliver 2l head of steers properly fat
tened to Mr.. Schmahl by Jan. 10th
next. The 81 head of hogs brought
) Mr.. Stewart $500 and the 2l head of
} tat cattle brought him S92O. Mr..
Stewart has been following the fatten-
ing processes recommended by Uncle
Theo. Louis of institute fame, and
finds that even at the present low
price of hogs it is more profitable to
]; turn grain into them rather than dis
J. pose of it at from 10 to 20 cents per
). bushel.
