ANOKA WINS.

Judges Brill, Otis and Kelly OF
the Ramsey county court disolves
the temporary injunction granted
Hastings, in location of fourth in
sane hospital site. This is point
gained by Anoka, but they should
not be paid for their site until the
matter has been carried to and pass
ed on by the higher courts 1t is
not only the opinion of these learned
judges that there was breach OF
good faith in relocating of this hos
pital, but of every person of ordinery
intelligence that is saot partial. A
commission composed of men that
reconsider a question on the pretext
that this commission did, should not
be allowed to hold an Office in any
organized body, and the state treas
urer is certainly justified in with
holding payment of warrant for the
purchase price until the courts have
fully passed upon the case.

School Entertainment.

The school entertainment given at
Masonic Hall last Friday, evening
was great success and credit to
all the scholars who participated.
We have not space enough to go into
all the details and give each one who
took part special mention as we
should like to do, but by the loud ap-
plause which was given by the
audience at the close Of each part of
the program proved conclusively how
much the efforts of the children were
appreciated and enjoyed by all. Due
credit should be given all the teach
ers who took time and patience to re-
herse and teach them in their differ
ent parts SO we'll.
They had crowded house and
netted the neat sum of $500 which
will enable them to purchase the
necessary additions to the School
Library for which benefit the affair
was given.

The city of Pipestone is going to
try to handle the tramp question by
making them earn what they get.
The council has ordered suitable
place selected for stone-pile and as
soon as the location is supplied with
material every house will be furnish
ed with a supply Of tickets which
will be an order for one meal, which
will be presented to the city marshal,
who will set the tramp at work
breaking stones for two hours after
which he will be furnished a meal.
This idea may be successful but it is
doubtful as there are so many SYM
pathetic people, and professional
tramps prefer to take their chances
in securing food in preference to
work.

Here is some good advice for
people who believe in practicing
purchasing articles from travelling
venders, or who send away for goods
that can be procured at home:" If
a travelling peddler comes along and
tries tosell goods, before purchasing,
ask him if he will take your butter.
egges, hides and other produce.
Ask him if, when your neighbor gets
ready to build road or bridge across
the creek or slough, if he is willing to
donate few dollars to help it along.
Tell him there is poor widow down
the road who would be very thankful
if he would donate few provisions.
Finally, say to him that money will
be scarce next season and would he
mind trusting you for few dollars
worth of goods. If he agrees to all
this, then patronize him.

One Good Point fn it's Favor.

One great point in favor of news
paper advertising is that the papers
are carried home and preserved for
some time, going into the homes of
the readers aud being looked over by
all members of the family; they are
exchanged with neighbors and make
the rounds of the whole community.
The advertisements in a good paper
work, not for a passing moment, but
for days and weeks and months, and
they reach the most int elligent class
in every community. Nothing can
take the place of newspaper adver-
tising.-Northfeld Independent.

A Paving Investment.
Values of the Properties EnchahceN
Inv Vf1Iage Improvement.

''The property owners OF a village
cannot make better paying invest
ment than in the maintenance OF a
well-organized improvement society,",
writes John Gilmer Speed in April
Ladies' Home Journal. "Through
such society the value of every
piece of property in a village, and
the neighborhood thereof, may be en-
chanced in value; village life may be
made to take on new interests and
new dignities; stagnation may be
kindled into an exhilarating activity.
Let the people become interested in a
Village improvement Society and
they will soon begin to discuss plans
and policies with gratifying alert
ness. They will discuss how best to
secure public library; they will
talk over the ways and means of get:
ting running water into the town;
they will argue over the best way OF
establishing fire department; they
will studyadrainage and sanitation;
they will recognize the value of street
lights when The moon is shining on
another part of the world; and when
they vote on these questions they will
vote with, entire intelligence, and
they will go away from the meetings
refreshed by what they have heard,
and what they have done"

Farewell Sermon.

At the Presbyterian church last
Sunday the Rev. Wilson Aull preach
ed his two farwell eermons to large
congregations, who one and all listen
ed to hlsIlast words spoken from the
pulpit with pleasure and sorrow
mingled-with sorrow to realize it
was the last time, as never was a
pastor more beloved by his flock than
he' and not only by the members of
his denomination, but by ALL is he
loved, personally as we'll as minister
Oh Gods church. He has worked
hard and faithfully in the interest
of the church and the good of the
people, Through his influence the
church has gained many new men,
bers during the past year and we
sincerely hope his place will not long
be vacant, but feel assured that the
place he fills in the hearts of his peo-
pie here cannot easily be filled.
1t will be a long time before
his congregation will be able to
recocile themselves to their loss.
The ADVANCE joins with. the people
in wishing him success in hi" new
Held OF labor. His family left Mon
day for Duluth, Mimi, where they
are to be joined by Mr.. Aull later to
make that their future home.

The past storms have been very
beneficial to the whole country: two
to six inches of snow and rain fell
over the entire northwest, moisten-
ing the soil and putting it in excell-
ent condition for all kinds of small
grain. Farmers have been delayed.
yet the results will be greater in the
end, as the grain will sprout rapidly
during the present warm weather and
the moisture cause it to stool out and
grow thrifty and give it a big yield
should there be no setback from
any other injurious causes When
the grain has a good start it will be
in condition to suffer less from the
extremes that hinder its growth.

a display of his elocutionary abilities.
He has a happy faculty of explain

giving an explicit conception of what
the character is-a necessary re-
quisite to many and an enjoyable
one to all. He caters to the instruct
i've rather than to the eloquent, and
in this he is successful. He selected
for the evenings program scenes

"A Point Of Law.

Attorney Wilson is engaged il
preparing an appeal to the Su'
preme court, from the decision Of
Judge Brown, in the case OF Will
son VS. Wilson.
1t appears, that in this case
among several points, that Mr..
Wilson thinks was decided in error
that the court granted judgment
for continuing alimony to the
amount of $4,000 per year with
out limiting it to any certain
length of time or providing that it
should cease upon the subsequent
marriage Of Mrs. Wilson Mr.. Will
son also takes exceptions to the
finding Of the court relative to
property owned by him and again
as to that part of the decree relat-
ing to tie amount Of property or
money to be restored to Mrs. Will
son, which great many years ago
she had placed in his custody for
keeping. It appeared from the un-
disputed evidence in the case that
she placed a certain amount Of
money in his hands to be kept by
him for her. The verdict of the
jury in this particular matter and
the fact was undisputed on trial,
that Mr.. Wilson had restored to
Mrs. Wilson, several years ago pri-
oreto commencement of the suit,al
the money and in fact a great deal
more than Mrs. Wilson had placed
in his care. This item run over
twenty years and the court in max
ing dc cision relative to it, COM
puted interest all this time upon
the sum of money and considered
the payment made from time to
tt me as partial payment, made the
same as if made upon a note. Mr..
Wilson contends, that our statute
relative to the restoration of prop
erty to the wife in case of divorce,
does not contemplate the comput-
ing Of interest upon money that
the: wife places in the care of her
husband, to be kept by him for her
subject to her demand to withdraw
at atany time" no more than in
case@of2 any other property, could
the wifesexac pay for the rental
and usage of it when it was simply
placed in the hands of the husband
subject to the order and control Of
the wife and used for the mutual
benefit Of both.
The points of appeal in this case
have never been decided in the
state and the construction that the
Supreme court will place upon the
statute, relative to those matters,
will be looked for with a great deal
Of interest, considering the fact
that the result, if against the cou-
tention of Mr.. Wilson, will virtually
be an enlargement or all amend
ment to the statute of this state
relative to the matter.
