A prominent western newspaper rec
ommends flax seed tea as an excellent
remedy for whooping cough. It may
be good but it is not to be compared
with Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
This preparation will allay the violent
fits of coughing and make them less
frequent and less severe. It also
liquefies the tough mucus, making it
easier to expectorate. Complete re-
covery is much quicker, too, when. this
remedy is given. There is no danger
in giving it to small children, as it is
a pleasant syrup and contains nothing
injurious. For sale at Is and so cents

J. L. Brady is greatly pleased by a
decision of Judge Start in the cases of
Brady VS.. Chadbourne. The case is an
old one and the UNIONS readers are
probably familiar with the facts. The
court decided in favor of Chadbourne
at the first trial and refused Brady
request for a new trial. It was carried
to the supreme court and after due
consideration was sent back for re-
trial. The following is the syllabus:
''Held, that a draft for the whole of a
specified debt amounts to an assign
ment of such debt to the payee, even
without acceptance; held further, that
it was error for the trial court in this
case, which was an action upon claim
against the defendant so assigned to
instruct the jury in effect that the
plaintiff could not recover unless the
defendant accepted the draft for some
amount. Order reversed.

The roads are drying up rapidly and
will soon be in good shape.
Mr.. and Mrs. Simpson and Ed.
Baeur, Of Cove, were in town Thurs
day on pleasure and business.
The house warming and dance at
Mr.. Morgan's Saturday night, was
largely attended and all had very
pleasant time.
The rain Saturday afternoon was a
most welcome one as fires were raging
in all directions and doing much dam
age to standing timber.
The lake drives are progressing in
fine shape. The Foley-Bean Lumber
company with their new steamer are
towing about 1000, 900 feet day from
Shakopee lake to the Trading Post
dam. The new steamer is pronounced
by all to be the best one of its kind in
the State. With small crew it
makes the lake driving an easy matter.
Z. II. Crosswell is making good time
with his drive. John johnson, with
his steamer is doing his towing and
they will soon have the rear in
Shakopee lake. The Foley-Bean COM
pany commence sluicing at the Trad
ing Post dam this morning. They
have about 5000, 900 feet ready to sluice
with 100000 to follow.
Without the slightest degree Of ex-
aggeration, Manager Jesmer takes
pride in announcing to the amusement
loving public of this city, that the per-

in the appearance of ''The Bijou Play

beginning Monday, May II. This or
ganization heralded in modest way,
comes most highly recommended by all
the exchanges of the surrounding coun-
try and if what they say of them is
true, the people of this city should
turn out en- masse to give them a
hearty welcome. Considerable inter-
est has already been excited over the
event of their coming and the local
management personally guarantees all
they advertise and assures his patrons
that they will profit by patronizing
this splendid organization.
