A BIG TIME PROMISED
At Spirit Lake Next Friday, All.
gust 2S.

Friday, August 28th, Spirit Lake
will be the central point of attraction
for excursionists. 1t will be MEM
orable day in the history Of this pop
ular summer resort. A splendid pro-
gramme of new and novel attractions
has been arranged for this date,
! which includes an aquatic game OF
base ball, a unique sport recently in
troduced in the West. Skilled play
ers from Lake Tetonka and Lake
Minnetonka will actually play a game
OF base ball on the water. A des:
cription of the game would not give
an idea of it's interest. 1t must be
seen to be appreciated. In the even
ing the celebrated Andrews Opera
Company of fifty people, sterling
musical organization SO we'll known
throughout the country, will present
the beautiful comic opera, "Pinafore"
on scale of magnificence never be-
fore attempted. The deck of a man
of-war riding at anchor upon the
lake will serve as stage. Sir JOS
eph and his femenine kin will go
aboard from an admirafs launch.
His coming will be heralded by the
boom of cannon. Every accessory
that will lend realism will be utilized.
The scene will be made spectacularly
beautiful by glorious wealth Of
light from 10000 candle-power cal
ciums. Splendid band concerts
throughout the day. These are few
of the attractions. There are many
others. The B., G. R. & n. train
leaves Worthington at 6 a. M, and
arrives at Spirit Lake at 1925 a. m.
The round trip rate is only $l.5O,
and parties holding round trip tick
cts will be admitted free to the base
ball game, the opera and all other
entertainments. To others the ad
mission will be so cents. Liberal
rates at Hotel Orleans. Call on B.,
G. r. &. N. agents for tickets. Re.
turning train leaves at 1870 p. m.

REN. MCCARTNEY

Amongthe excellent names suggest
ed for the Republican nomination for
the responsible Office of county sher-
if is that of Ren. Mccartney. He
we'll represents the young, active
and effective element of his party, land
possesses the qualifications necessary
to win votes and execute faithfully the
duties of the office when he shall be
elected. Let the claims of this worthy
and capable young man be properly
considered.-YouNa AMERICAN.

that the world is growing better. TIC
the labors of these true patriots, these
lovers of their kind, to these more
than to the edicts of princes or the
acts of congress. is the world indebt-
ed for it's onward progress.
The welfare of each individual is a
matter that rests mainly with himself;
the same is true of towns and cities.
The growth of Of our towns in Mobiles
county does not depend half so much
on what congress does, as on what we
do for our selves. It is we'll that it is
so. When I look at these things,
and think what unselfish, ublic-
spirited men are doing all over this
broad land of ours, I feel quite hope
full for the future. At times like the
present, times Of business depression
and when the political horizon seems
dark and threatening, we are too apt
to take gloomy view of our sur
.roundings, and many would have US
believe that we are on the verge of
ruin. Times of depression have come
in all lands and under all forms of
government, and will, probably, to
the end of time; but all the dull times
that have ever come as yet have pass
ed away, and SO will these. Let us
work and wait.-RoBERr SHORE.

A Small Blaze.

The yell of fire aroused our people
last Monday evening at about seven
o'clock, the report came from Pat
O'Connor's on 9Th avenue, but in a
very few seconds from the time the
fire gong poured out it's warning the
fire boys were on the grounds so there
was no serious damage done to the
building. The contlagration was the
result from a cooking range some
sparks from the stove set blaze in
some kindling wood laying on the
floor while the lady of the house out

school for nurses, the object of
which is to fit young men and wo-
men for the profession Of nursing.
They not only become familiar
with the care Of the insane, but
are trained in general nursing as
we'll, so that after taking years
course and graduating, they will
be competent to do any kind Of
nursing and will be much better
trained than the graduate of gen.
eral hospital, because the training
in the care of the insane teaches
them to think and act for the pat
lent as we'll as to wait upon him.
The course Of study is graded
and extent over two years, consist
ing of lectures and practical in
structions ola the details Of the
care of the sick and insane.
Young men and women taking
this two years Of training receive
an amount Of culture, independent
of their training as nurses, which
will fit them for any occupation
they may chose to take up after
graduation, and it has the great
advantage Of teaching them to be
orderly, methodical and accurate
besides developing in them the
power and of self-control.

term of service, men are paid SIS.

Is gradually increased according to
merit until after six months they
are paid S25.00. Graduates may
for good and extend service be paid
$500 per month. Women are
paid $1,000 the first month to be
gradually increased tc $500 after
six months. Graduates may be paid

ease or deformity, and they are ex-
pected to enter for the full course
of instruction. Applicants on be-
ing accepted will be expected to
serve two months on probation,
after which, if their service has
satisfactory, they will on agreeing

instruction be accepted as pupil
nurses. Pupils may enter the
school at any time.

Boiling
River

oOAAllS not as large as The Miss
4:- issippi, indeed it is quite
R1Ver small, but a mighty in
teresting stream for all
that. 1t issues from the sides OF u
mountain in a thousand tiny rills,
more or less and of almost any colors.
These gather themselves into pools and
lakelets on the mountains s side, cover
ing an area of abOut20O acres. Over
flowing their boundaries they slowly
1rickle down the sides Of the mountain
forming small cliffs, the most wonder
ful in the world. From distance one
would hardly believe what the eyesight
reveals-white, black, orange, lemon,
terracotta, g. .een, blue. led, pink, sep
crate and in manifold combinations
stand out before him. 1t is a hill of
painted cliffs on the sides of the noun
tain that Uses high above. And the
odd part of it is that each of these ex-
QuisiLe cOlCrs represent different tenn
perature. Does that startle your cred
ulty? Even so it is true,
When throug with this beautiful paint
ing process, these waters again comes
together aud then, as if full of mischief
like q pack of small: boys trying to play
hide and seek, dive down and remain
under the ground for space OF two
miles and then flow out from the mouth
of a conyonita as one of the clearest,
most beautiful, green streams imagin-
able. Where these waters emerge from
the mountain into the little lakes they
are hot, boiling hot. During several
hundred feet and also many degrees
of holiness, so that when they again
see daylight they we're much cooler.
This then is Boiling River: an under
ground mountain stream of hot water.
But you ask, where is it? Where
can I see it? ltis in Y Yellowstone Park
at Mammoth Hot Springs. 1t is one
of the lesser-mind you the lesser
wonders of this land of wonders, Go
there and see it by all means but first
send to Chas. S. Fee, General PasS-
enger Agent, Northern Pacific Rail
road, st. Paul Minn., six cents for
Wonderland '96, that tells all about
this removed region.
