According to the statement of off,

A Bird Island special states that
the Renville grand jury failed to in
dict Rev. H. E. Chase of that town on
the charge of assault, for which he

Sneak thieves are abroad and resi-
dents should keep their outhouses
locked. A bride was stolen from the
barn of S. Pollard Sunday night, a

Our Delhi correspondent reports the
arrival of twin girls at the home of B.
b. Bliss and boy at the house of
George Shilson. The same correspon-
dent states that w. P. Abbott has

Bert. VanSilas had his neck and
spinal column badly injured by being

The personal tax assessment against
the insolvent Citizens Bank, amount
ing to nearly $500 will probably never
be collected by the county. 1t ap-
pears that the tax is against the Citi-
zens Bank and not against it's heirs
or assigns and when the bank assigned
to the Northern Trust Co. it turned
over all of it's property, credits, etc.,
leaving nothing for the county to
seize in order to enforce the payment
of the taxes. Sheriff Mead is collect
ing other delinquent personal taxes
very we'll, although a number of the
latter will be uncollected on account
of the parties having moved from the
county or State.
On an attachment procured blythe
Ryan Drug Co. of St. Paul Sheriff
Mead has levied on about Ia pairs
of boots and shoes supposed to be-
long to the stock of E. H. Gosper at
North Redwood, but which Gosper
claims to have sold to the firm of
Kuenzli & Dreyer before the attach
ment. The proceedings were brought
with the intentions of having Gosper
assign but after the sale to Kuenzli &
Dreyer he had nothing to assign. The
boots and shoes were brought up to
this city yesterday and will be sold at
public auction. There is likely to be
great deal of litigation over the pro-
ceedure.
The new time table of the Chicago
& Northwestern road, which went in
to effect last Sunday, seems to be
very satisfactory to residents of this
section. The morning train now ar
rives at 500 instead of $50. It leaves
here for Sleepy Eye at 1892 p. M,
and arrives in Sleepy Eye at 2:15,
making connections with the east
bound train which leaves Sleepy Eye
ten minutes later and the west bound
train which leaves Sleepy Eye at ESQ.
The stub line train returns to Red
wood Falls at 4:15 p. M. and returns
to Sleepy Eye 30 minutes later, arriv-
ing there at 6:l5. Parties desiring to
60 east must lay over in Sleepy Eye
until 4:5O the next morning. West
bound passengers on the evening
train can take the through train
which passes through Sleepy Eye at
9:O2. The train going east at 2:25
p. m. is daily but no Sunday trains
are run on the stub line. Redwood
hotel proprietorrs are more than
pleased with the new card, the chang
es being beneficial to their business,
benefit to which they have long been
entitled to and are now receiving.
