THREE BURGLARlES.
Two Saloons and Butcher Shop
Entered.

Two thieves, supposed to be home
talent piled their trade on Front
street between midnight and 2:30
a. ~, and there is no clew except a
partial description of their clothing
as they were seen to run away from
the last place entered.
The burglars started in at Leases
saloon, where they took off a storm
window in the rear and broke a pane
of glass to get at the catch, after
vainly trying to pry up the lower sash
with wide chisel. Having entered,
they took what money there was in
the drawer, As cents, two bottles of
whisky and some cigars. Two watches
were in the money drawer, but were
overlooked. A few pennies were also
left.
The butcher shop on North Front
street, owned by the Jacob Miller
estate, was next entered. The rear
window was open, and the thieves re-
moved the screen. The money drawer
contained three dollars in pennies, and
these were taken.
Ed. Cousandier's saloon was next
visited and an entrance was gained
through the cellar. An iron grating
was torn off, and wire screen broken
which let the men into the cellar from
the Elm street side. The door leading
from the cellar to the first floor was
open, and the miscreants went to work
to get what plumber they could. Mr..
Cousandier and family live on the Sec
ond floor and the noise awoke Mrs.
Cousandier who arose and called her
husband, but opposed his going cdown.
The children started to cry, and this
frightened the men away. One ran
out of the front door and the other
from another door, and they got away
in different directions. Mr.. Cousan-
dier got view of them from the win
dow and ascertained that they were
grown men, one dressed in gray sack
suit and the other in dark. 1t was 2:30
a. m. when this occurred. Investiga
tion showed that the money drawer
had been pried pown with a chisel and
partly broken. Two compartments
containing dimes and nickels had been
emptied, but another compartment of
nickels farther back had not been
touched, nor were number of dollars
worth of dimes put up in packages in
another drawer. The money taken
amounted to between Sc and So. A
bottle of wine and some cigars were
also stolen, as well as two revolvers,
bull dog and Smith & Wesson. The
total value of the goods and money
taken was about S25.

FOURTH OF JULY PROGRArI.
The Grandest Celebration Ever Seen
Here

The committees on the Fourth of
July celebration held a joint meeting
Friday and talked over the situa-
tion, which was found to be very
promising. The finance committee
reported progress. The meeting con-
sidered program, to include an adj
dress by Archbishop Ireland or some
other first class speaker, balloon as
cension, bicycle races, fine company
contests, fire works, etc. 1t was
about decided to have the streets
handsomely decorated with arches,
etc., and electric effects. Several
bands will be hired.
From the plan outlined, the celebra-
tion will be the grandest ever wit
messed in Southern Minnesota. 1t
will be such an affair as few people
in this state have seen, and one which
will long be remembered.
The committees are to be filed up
with workers, to take the place of
those who are showing no interest.

Tariff tinkering" upon "free trade"
lines has had it day. 1t is amusing
to hear the arguments advanced by
the old school Democrats, laying the
present unsettled condition of the
country to other causes. They are yet
laying it, too, to the failure of the
South American enterprises OF the
Earrings brothers, of Europe. But the
failure of the Earrings was in 1890
while in 1891 and 1892, under Repub-
lican protective tariff, we enjoyed
greater prosperity than this or any
other country had ever before known.
Our serious trouble and enormous
shrinkage of all values commenced in
1893, when the Democratic party as
sumed entire control over the legisla-
ture branch of our government; be-
sides if our commercial success and
general prosperity is coincident with
the same conditionsin Europe, why is it
that we are not now prosperous, while
Europe, since the repeal of the Nc
Kinley Tariff, has been exceptionally
so, and the British Chancellor, of the
Exchequer, has just reported a sur
plus for the fiscal year of over forty
million of dollars. Will not our Dem
ocratic friends please make compar-
ison between this and the United
States treasury under the manage
ment of Cleveland, Wilson x Co.

LETTER FROM GEORGIA.

Mrs. D. w. Selleck has written
from Cuthbert, Ca, to Miss Craver, of
this city, and from the letter we take
the following extracts descriptive of
the place:
1.-THE park presents a beautiful
sight, tall China trees covered with
purple blossoms like lilac, sweet To-
Gust trees large as the maple by the
old home white as snow, roses of
every shade and color, even green
roses, in fact every shrub and plant
that can be thought of is there and in
full bloom. The soil is of a reddish
color The streets are all brick color.
1t is truly quaint old town. The
park is the center, and business
houses are built around it, and the
hotel is in the west side of it.
"The people here are very religious,
and / have not heard asman or boy,
black or white, use an oath since [
have been here. The negroes are
having quarterly meeting today, and
you would never know them. They
all dress out of sight, silks and satins
of every color, ribbons and flowers of
the brightest color, hats the whitest
in the market, and faces the blacklist,
all just as happy as they can be. But
you have to watch them as close as a
cat does mouse, or they will steal
everything they can, and seem to
think it is all right. The people of
the south are above the average size,
large and straight and not stoop
shouldered from hard work, for the
white men don't work down here.
They are going to have decoration
day here May fist, and will raise a
Confederate monument in the park.
The other day 1 visited the cemetery,
a beautiful place, where there are
three long rows of soldiers graves
with little black head and foot boards,
marked ia white letters unknown.

course the government won't buy
marble slabs for the Confederate SOL
diers' graves.
81 received today tray Of roses
from some ladies'. They were beauti-
full, and l am sure there were more
than half bushel. The people send
us flowers for the tables every day,
fine, large bouquets. They seen to
enjoy giving them to US.
"This is the greatest country for

chickens every day, and if we did not,
the boarders would leave. Chickens,
