The pretty little home of Mrs. Mon
tague-Turner on Beretania street, was
the scene of a very pleasant gathering
last night. 1t was just a meeting of
the I'll Trovatore" Company for a good
time, and they had it.
Mrs. Turner was charming in her
manner of entertaining her guests, as
surfing them by word and action that
they were right at home. During the
early part of the evening the company
were favored with songs by Mrs. Tur-
ner, Miss McGrew, Miss Roth, Mr., Paul
Isenberg and Mr.. Monteagle.
The anvil chorus from I'll TrOva-
tore" was sung by all. Later on re-
freshments were served on the cosy
lanai at the side of the house. Those
present were Mrs. Ross, Mrs. w. w.
Dimond, Misses Lawson, Sturgeon,
Kate McGrew, Pauahi Judd, Rose Roth,
Alice Wall, May Hart, Grace King, Cir

diversion from their regular household
duties.
Among the exhibits of china are
number from the Misses Along. Miss
Helen shows a fish plate and tray for
the toilet table that are full of merit.
The colOring and gliding and original
ity of design makes them worthy of
comparison with the work of profess
SIGNALS. Miss Bessie has a vase in
one of the Dresden pattern that is eX-
ceptionally well done, and Miss Carrie
has two plates, one with cherry decora
ton and the other with carnations. Be

border on each.

able settlers from northwestern Iowa
where he made his home for some years,
to locate here. He has had experience
in handling land and we hope he will

n GREAT SUCCESS.
The boys Quite as Capable as the
GirIs In the Art Culinary.

The supper and musical given the pub.
lie at the Auditorium last Thursday
evening, was a unique affair. 1t was
planned and carried throuh entirely by
the male members ofthe Congregational
society for the beneht of that church.
The spread was most elaborate and it
was served in a manner that surprised
every one present. The six walters OF
whom J. w. Ward was chief. carried out
their part of the work as though they
wanted to out-do the Sauk Centre house
force. The kitchen was presided over.
by Messrs Woodbury., Whipple. Buck.
Marshall, How. buchanan, .1obey and
McCoilum. Mr.. Back won laurels by
making the coffee, which everyone knows
could not be exce,led. Messrs How, Nc
Collum and Tobey washed dishes in a
manner that showed proper home II ain
ing. The president OF the city council
dished out the beans with lavish hand,
while the ex-mayor carved the meats
any in many other ways proved hrs
usefulness.
The reception hall was presided over
in an able manner by Messrs Tullev.
Boobar, Hilsdale. Lincoln and White
field. By 9 O'Clock the meal was over
and the Auditorium was quickly filled
to it's capacity and the musical pro-
gramme which had been arranged by
Messrs Lamb, Hanson and Cooper was
carried out in very pleasing manner
as was evidenced by the frequent encore
from the audience. The solo, sung by
Father FITZGERALD and Mr.. Henshaw
were enjoyed very much as they always
are.
The music by the orchestra was well
rendered, and the duet, Prison Scene, .
by iEessrs. Henshaw and Mansell, was
exceptionally fine. DIR. Dubois gave the
audience much pleasure in the speech he
delivered in his inimitable style.
The sale of the two baked pigs con
Quoted by Mr.. Norris caused much mer-
riment and augmented the fund quite
materially. The auctioneer gave the
people, and especially the ladies, to un-
detstand that not IN this generation
| would there be another such social as
they had that evening enjoyed.
Treasurer Simcnton reported gross

meet in St. Paul on the 25th inst, the
day next after the state convention at

det ermiued on that occasion is the Sc
lection of a president of the league to
succeed Mr. Goodnow. The leading
name thus far mentioned sthat OF Hon.
d. w. Bruckart of st. Cloud, and a
most excellent suggestion it is. Mr.
Bruckart is gentleman of unusually

tic Republican. and possesses all the re-
quisities necessary to successful admin
istration of the Office of president of the

the position.-Winona Republican.

WHY!


A drill should be used because the
grain is thereby BETTE covered and the
roots better protected and therefore
better able to withstand dry spell.
WHY FROM EAST TO WEST.
Because the winds come from the
south and if the rows rum from north to
south, the wind has free access through
the rows of grain to tine roots: but if
the rows run from east to west the first
few rows should form barrier to the
wind getting at the roots, and each row
should shade its neighbor from the heat
OF the suns rays, and thus protect the
roots from drying ont. This is so simple,
and seem so plausible and without a
flaw, that every one ought to have
thought OF it; but have they? 1t may
be another case Of Columbus and the
egg: Let it be tried.

A Pertinent Fact That All Farm

II has been demonstrated beyond
doubt that the worst enemy OF the ma
turing wheat in certain portions Of the
northwest is the hot wind which pres
walls about the time the wheat is in the
milk or dough, thus shrinking the kerr
nal and depreciating the wheat in both
weight and quality. Any remedy that
could be applied to correct or materially
reduce the evil would be of immense
value to the producer, and thus to the
country at tlarge, especially in the sections
where the hot winds prevail
