A number of the young men about
town propose to give the girls leap
year function in return for the one
given by the girls at Hotel Francois
early this year. The plan under con-
sideration calls for an elaborate affair
and all of the bloods expect to be in
evidence.

had his hand badly cut in an accident
This incapacitated him from travelling

Teachers of the North Side section

School room. This meeting will close
the work u It'll September. It is i'm.
portant that all members be present
A special social program has been ar
ranged, which contains some very in
teresting, pleasurable pleasures.
A Mankato special to the Journal Of
last Wednesday stated that George
Backer of this city would probably
build a 2OO-barrel Touring mill in
Mankato. 1t appears that Mr.. Backel
does not intend to build a mill at
Mankato but that he is trying to &C.
quire possession, either by purchase
or lease, of one of the mills in that
city. Mr.. Backer is an experienced
miller and would undoubtedly push
the Touring business in Mankato to a
successful issue.
At the session of the Federal grand
jury at Mankato last week that body
refused to indict Ed. Hendricks, the
x-Redwood Falls cigar manufacturer
on the charge brought against him by
Hungry Hank Mullmeister of selling
cigars to the latter without placing
the proper internal revenue stamp on
the box. The evidence presented was
insufficient to warrant the returning
of an indictment. Hendricks is at
Fairfax and is naturally elated over
the outcome of the case.
Horton Nelson is preparing to make
extensive improvements in the North
Redwood Roller mill. One of the i'm
provements already under way is the
tearing out of the present old and I'M
safe dam and replacing it with solid
rock and mortar structure that will
stand the wear and tear of the high
and low water and the jammjng Of
ice in spring. A number of masons
have already been engaged for this
purpose and work will probably com.
mence in short time.
