we're standing in barn and the bolt
descended through the latter, killing
them instantly. Several other head

The ice in the Redwood river went
out Sunday and Monday. The river
is unusually high on account of the
recent heavy rains. Mr.. Burmeister
of the Redwood Roller Mill is of the
opinion that he will be able to run his
mill the most of the summer by water
power. The North Redwood Roller
Mill will start up in a few days an
will use water for power. Horton
Nelson, who bid the mill in at the
mortgage sole, and who has acquired
title to the same by reason of the one
years redemption having expired
will operate the mill. AS to who the
miller will be is not yet known.

in New York. It is apparent that
Liverpool does not get American
creamery butter of the best grade.
