Jones of Redwood Falls was in town
Monday and had with him q pair of
his blocded grey hounds; and with
Mayor Dotson and his pack of run
ners spent the afternoon hunting rab-
bits. Mr.. Jones has some feet hounds,
but our Mayor claims to have three
hounds that are very hard to beat and
he says they can pick up '.jack" as
quick as any of them.
1t is said that cit takes an old dog
for long road" This has been aptly
illustrated by recent innovation OF
the G. & n. W., who have attached a
sleeping car for the exclusive use oil
stockmen to the stock train, which
leaves Waseca every weekday at $50
a. m. and Rochester about 10 q. m. II
is needless to say that this will prove
great convenience to stock men and
. will do away with the overcoming Of
caboose cars, which are none too large
for the regular train crews, and Ger
tainly encroaches upon their rights
when dozen or more stockmen take
possession The G.. & n. w. knows
what kind of tree it takes to make
shingles"
