Back From Georgia.

George COultis, one Of the old
soldiers who left Morrison county
about year ago for the old soldiers
colony at Fitzgerald, Ga, Is with us
again having, arrived here on the
10th inst. by team. He was three
months On the road.
Mr.. Coultis does not care to dis
cuss Georgia, to any extent. but
from a few remarks he made 1t ia
very evident that he found that
place far from what he expected In
every respect.
In answer to a question in regard
to wages for labOring men. Mr..
Coultis said that farm hands received
40 and 50 cents per day. Wages In
the mills were from so cents to $1.M
per day, the latter figures being paid
for the more skilled laborers in the
mills. Provisions were very high.
Mr.. Coultis' family were in poor
health there, and his Oldest son died
In Tennessee on the way here. Two
children and his wife were very III
when he left Georgia. and did not re-
cover until he nearly reached the
Ohio river.
Mr.. Coultis saws, he does not want
to say anything further than to adj
wise anyone not to 60 there. In re-
gard to other parties from Little
Falls, who were reported to be do
ing we'll, Mr.. Coultis said that they
would be back here II they could sell
out and realize enough to bring
them back.
OF the Confederate veterans Mr..
Coultis spoke in the highest terms,
saying that they and the Union
veterans were the best Of friends.
The old soldiers of the south did
everything possible to assist the
northerners, but the generation born
since the war cherished the old ami
mostly for the northerner. Mr..
Coultis, in conclusion. said that he
did not think tho climate Of Georgia
as good for u northern man, and al
so stated that If the people OF this
locality lived as economically as
they are compelled to do In
Georgia, they would oil be indie
pendently rich in q few years.

An Interesting Entertainment.
DR.. Alex Hume and wife, Kate
Hume, gave very interesting en-
teinment at the Gross opera house
Sunday evening. 1t would require
too much space to give description
Of the performance in detail, but
the audience was mystified by their
work. A committee of four, selec ted
by the audience. all representative
citizens OF Little Falls. was ON the
stage, and they could not discover
by what means their feats were &C.
complished. Both are clever in their

spiritualism. and interestd their au-

DEMANDED BYlNDIANS.
The Mile Laos Natives Notify
Uncle Sam What They
Want.

A delegation of Mile Laos Indians
has been in Washington some time
In charge Of Gus Beaulieu. trying to
have the white settlers removed from
the reservation at Mile Laos, and
also to have the lands there allotted
in severalty to the Indians. On
Saturday the Indians filed the fol-
lowing statements In the Indian de-
partment:
''Sir: In order to place ON record
the full extent of our instruc tiOns as
the delegates of the Mile Laos band,
we deem it expedient to submit the
following propositions, looking to
the settlement Of the Mile Laos
questiOns:
"First-It is the wish of the Mile
Laos band Of Chippewa Indians, ex-
pressed In council, that the nnpdt-
ented lands of the Mile Laos reserva-
ton, amounting to several thousand
acres, be allotted to the heads OF
OF families Of said band.
''Second-The Mile Laos hand de-
sires legislative action by congress,
setting aside a tract Of land upon
the Mile Laos reservation, contain
ing at least four sections of land,
with u frontage upon Mile Laos
lake, which may be used as a per-
manent home for said Indians, etc., to
be allotted to them in small tracts;
also that tract may be set aside
for a cemetery, so that the bodies OF
the dead Mile Laos Indians may be
reinforced there.
"Third-The Chippewa commits
sion which negotiated with the Mile
Lacs Chippewas for their assent to
the act of Jan. H., 1889, made GER
tain promises to the effect that
there would be placed upon the Mile
Laos reservation a blacksmith, a
carpenter and a farmer. We ask for
the fulfllment Of their promises, and
more especially that q physician be
placed upon the reservation.
I'm making the foregoing PROPOSE

the land question, we have not lost
sight of our rights in equity to- the

Hot Game of Ball.

A very interesting game OF base
ball was played Sunday afternoon
between a club OF small boys Of this
city and a team from Royalton.
The feature of the game was the
excellent work of the pitcher Of the
Little Falls club. His name is King
and he was the smallest boy In both
teams. only weighing sixty pounds,
and is less than half the size Of the
boy that pitched for the other club.
His curves not only puzzled the
visitors, but he played an ell round
good game, fielding every thing that
came. his way and smashing the ball.
every time he went to bat. At the
end of the third inning he was ex-
changed for another, who gave the
visitors eight runs. The substitute
only played one inning and King
was agalh put In the box and the
visitors only succeeded In finding the
home plate twice after he went back
into the box. The game stood II to
l3 in favor Of Little Falls, and a
great share of the victory is due to
the little pitcher. although he was
given good support by the rest OF
the team. 1t ls doubtful II there is a
better ball player of Kings size and
age In the state of Minnesota.

Brainerd Dispatch: The electric
street car company will cease opera
tons Sunday evening, and after that
date Brainerd's elegant street car ser
vice will be a thing Of the past. The
track will not be taken up at once,
but arrangements will be made to
have it removed before cold weather
sets in. It is an Institution that will
be greatly missed by our people.
The Anoka Herald, referring othe
photographer who recently bought
A. e. BOyce's gallery in this city,
says: "Mr. Nelson is an artist OF
fine ability and good taste and judg-
ment of every thing that goes to
make a fine picture-always careful
of the small details so essential in
the finishing of a first class photo
graph. We predict great success for
Mr.. Nelson in his new field of opera
ton. as he is just such a man as is
bound to make success any where.
He is not only fine workman, but
a thoroughly honest and reliable
young man, pleasant and accommo-
dating to all with whom he comes in
contact. We congratulate the city
OF Little Falls ON it's good fortune in
receiving him as their local photog-
rapher."

Wheat a Disappointment.

Fergus Falls, Mimi. Aug. A.
There is no denying now that the
wheat crop has been greatly over
estimated. Fields which looked fine
~ and had a splendid stand have
many heads either worthless or only
partially filled. The big price is the
only thing that keeps the farmers
from the blues, and Otter Tail has
the best crop iii this end of the state.

His Best Girl Was Almost Good

From the Chicago News.
Three young men were lounging about
the office in which they We're employed,
the other night after business hours, dis
cussng the new administration, financial
outlook of the country, opera season and
other equally interesting topics. One OF
them, the shipping clerk, finally declared
he blew out cloud OF smoke from his
five-cent cigar:
well, tell you it's just coming to this :;
the girls will have to pay for their own
seats If they expect US to take them to the
opera"
The bookkeeper locked up from a trial
balance he was struggling over to ask
quietly, but with a naughty little twinkle
in his eye:"
And yours, too, eh Spotzie?" (The ship
ping clerks name was Spott)
Spotzie colored up to the tips Of his ears
as he replied ansrily:
"oh, 1 don't know: you're not the only
number on the calendar just because
you've got date for tonight. Before these
hard times struck US l used to have three
or four girls; now it's hard to hold onto

down on his desk and struck another
match to light his cigar, which had gone
cut in the heat of the discussion.
The bookkeeper only smiled he con-
tinued his counting, bat the cashier. who

his necktie to his satisfaction before the
looking glass in the lavatory door, looked
up and asked, as he gaves final twirl to

What would you say to a girl who never
mentions operas, theater or dances; doesn't
eat candy and can't bear flowers?"
The other two men cried together;
Where is she?''
