AN ACT OF a POLICEMAN.

Police Officer Gates, who patrols
Austin street while Patsy Kneeland
stays at home. received a note yester-
day afternoon. This note was not
from a girl, but from poor widow.
the mother of three children. They
had not eaten anything for two days.
The note stated that her children must
eat. even if she had to starve. The
officer did not return the note with
words of coincidence, but lost no time
in taking up small collection from a
few friends and with little cOntribu-
ton from his own pocket sent it to the
poor woman. He says she is worthy
of assistance, and it is only at her own
request that her name is withheld
from publication.

THINGS THAT ARE DIFFERENT
IN MEXICO.

$50 long" as parting salutation is
not slang in Spanish
Business is suspended on big relig-
glous feast days, just the same on
national holiday.
1t is the polite thing to give your
companion the inside of the walk, even
if he be gentleman.
Even after men and women of the
lower class rise to the luxury of shoes
they still disdain anything so effete
as hosiery.
Mexican lettuce is sweeter than that
grown in the states, and the common
classes eat it like fruit without any
dressing whatever.
All hit epublic hacks arep eriodically
passed in review and inspected by ex-
perts, who order repairs made when
they are needed.
Buildings in course of construction,
street work or any kind of improve
ment is never left without a watch
man, either day or night.
Men carry ice cream freezers about
skillfully balanced on their headsand
sell small glasses of frozen sweetness
for one cent each.
Both the postoffice and the express
companies take drafts for collection
in all parts of the republic where they
have offices.
You can buy a postal card that will
go from the City of Mexico to Boston
for two cents. A postal card to be
delivered anywhere in the republic
costs three cents.
Rent is not only collected in advance
but your landlord will ask you for a
guarantee signed by one or two well
known parties before he turns his
house over to you.
Checks are seldom used in ordinary
commercial transactions. Earge mer-
camille houses always keep several
thousand dollars in their safes, and
many of them make it a rule never
to make n check for any sum less
than a thousand dollars.
The small engines that pull the sub
urban trains are never seen in the
city. They are detached at the out
skirts of town and a team of mules
attached to each car, brings the pas
to the center of the city and
takes the outgoing ones to the en-
CINE. The changes are made very
quickly.

New school House.

Pursuantt0 the resolution adopted
at the school meeting, the Board of
Education has already taken steps to
erect a two-room frame building for
school purposes, which will be COM
pleted in abundant time for the open
ing of the fall term. O. A building, Blk
"a, one story, will be erected at the cor
ner where the Lord building now
stands. That building will be renewed
eastward to point near the line of
the adjoining lot, and the new one
will be put upon the west line of the
school property, the front on Fourth
ST., on or very near the street line. A
heavy stone wall will be built to serve
the double purpose of foundation and
retaining wall. The purpose is to
heat it from the boiler in the main
building, but it will be provided with
a chimney and ventilating shafts, so
that stoves may be used if necessary.
twill be a fine building, we'll adapted
to the uses for which it is designed and
will serve its purpose for several years.
It will be so constructed as to make it
readily movable when desired. The
cost will not exceed $500, including
necessary furniture and equipment.

Glenwood won two out of the three
heats and won first money, leaving a
tie between the Ebenstiner and Con-
nelly | orses. AS they could not agree
to DIVIDE the purse, an extra heau pc
tween the two was run in which Eben-
stiner won.
Another event of interest was the
base ball game between Browerville
and Mehose. Both are excellent clubs
and at Alexandria, Melrose was the
winner. Here Browerville won by a
score of 10 TO 5. 1t was fine game
and was heartily enjoyed. The fire.
works in the evening were as success
full as had been every other feature of
the day. A parade was organized
which marched through the principal
streets, discharging lnulti-colored
Roman candles, while brilliant fires
burned along the route. The air was
filled with brilliant blazes, and hum
dreds of rockets Kissed and doomed in
every direction. The set pieces were
very fine, and, taken in all, it was a
pyrotechnic display, long to be remem-
bered. The, festivities of the day
closed with, dance at the Opera
House, given by the base ball boys
which furnished plenty of fun for. all,
and netted handsome surplus,
Sauk Centre is highly gratified at
the handsome compliment paid her by
such large delegations as were, present
from our neighboring towns. Glen
wood had hundred people here, Mel
rose, Alexandria and Long Prairie as
many, while all the stations on all the
lines of road We're proportionately lib

is gratifying to know that all felt
themselves repaid for coming.
