A TRIP TO SUNBURGH.

A0A . =" 40 q worry AuOcicSClHS plCHlC
at Sunburgh last Sunday and an inn
mense attendance. The profit of the
picnic went to aid the Cubans in their
struggle for liberty. The New London
Cornet Band and the Terrace Band
were in attendance rendering very ex-
cellent music. The Quale Brothers.
Quartette, of Swift county, rendered
also choice singing which was an
especial entertaining feature of the
program. The speakers of the day
were G. Erickson, of Pope county, our
humble self and others.
There was also an exciting base
ball game between the Kirkhoven team
and the Sunburgh team. We did not
stay to learn the result
On our way out and home or com
ing and going, as we say, we were
royalty entertained at Erick Paulson's
fine home. The Paulson residence is
located on a historic spot, as few
rods from the house is yet seen marks
after the cellar of the house of some
of the victims of the Indian massacre
in 1862. Five of them were killed on
the ground that now makes the Paul
son lawn and door-yard We. do not
wonder that the early pioneers were
attracted to the spot as the Paulson
farm is now on one of the most beauti-
full locations in the county, or for that
matter anywhere in this beautiful
region. Substantial and commodious
buildings with all modern improve
ments and large and thrifty orchard
loaded with a variety of splendid
fruit bear witness to the thrift, indus
try, taste and ahuence of the Paulson
family. Even the mother of Mr.. Paul
son, 10l years Old-one-hundred and
one-was walking around the home
| stead in fair possession of all her
senses and mind, appearing to one,
that does not know her age, to be only
| about 60 or 10 years old. few weeks
| ago she walked over three miles to see
daughter. We do not know of an
other instance of this age of anyone
living in this county.
The Sunburgh country is splendid
country. The crops up there look
we'll as usual-somehow they always
have good crops up there. And what
crop of bright looking boys and
girls they have up there also, hum
dreds and hundreds of them, good
looking, progressive, intelligent.
We don't get up there now as often
as we did while living in New London
so it was a real pleasure to meet many
of our old acquaintance and have
hearty hand shake.
The genial and prosperous merchant,
P. H. Gandrud, was the chairman of
the day and both he and the others
there in charge of the picnic enter
tanned all the visitors in the most ex-
cellent manner. We were favored
with good weather and we came home
in good repair. How is it with you
New London people? It looked to us
as if you did get a few drops of water
on the way. ~ 4.

TEAM RECORD BROKEN.
Gentry and Robert j. Make a Milo il,
20S.

Glens Falls, N. Y, October Sat
the mile track of the northern horse
breeders association here today, John R.
Gentry and Robert j.. broke the pacing
team record, going the mile in faultless
style in o. This was done after the
pair had been sent mile in 2.11, and be-
fore the close of the days sport Gentry
with running mate paced a mile in
a.03 3-4.
The first quarter was repetition Of the
first trial in 50 seconds but the half mile
was quarter of a second slower. Strange
ly enough they reached the three-quarters
pole in /. 81 IA again. AS they straight
ened out for home Driver Bovine shook
them up a bit and they came down the
stretch In a tremendous burst Of speed,
passing under the wire in the marvellous
time Of 80 3-4 for the last quarter, and
making the mile in 2.0S. The crowd went
wild with enthusiasm.
Shortly afterwards Gentry WAS brought
out for his trial with running mate to
break the track record of 2.0l 12, made
by himself in 1886. He made the mile in
2.04 3D.
The wind interfered greatly in the trial
and but for this the record would un-
doubtedly have gone much lower

NOT ABSOLUTELY SETTLED.
Cabinet Thinks Great Britian May Par
ticipate in Seal Conference.

Washington, October Sat the cabi-
net meeting today there was some discus
sion of the Cuban question and the seal
conference, but owing to the fact that
both these matters are in transitory con-
dition no definite action was decided up
on.
The President had hoped to secure re-
ply to his representations to Spain dur
ing the present month, but 1t was stated
at the meeting that the Spanish cabinet
crisis probably would cause delay in this
matter. There was more or less specula-
ton on the part Of mem bers as to what
would be the temper and character of the
reply when it should be received and the
opinion was general that the new minis
try would manifest desire to cultivate
friendly relations with this country
The desire of the administration appeared
to be to meet these advances if they are
accompanied by policy on the part of
Spain towards Cuba that will hasten the
close Of the war in accordance with Anne
rican ideas. There was more or less dis
cussion also of the proposed fur seal con
ference 1t was stated after the meeting
adjourned that it was not yet considered
as absolutely settled that Great Britain
would not participate in the conference.
Il The meeting also developed confirma-
ton of the report that the Union Pacific
syndicate had agreed to increase it's bid
to the governments to $780, QUO, 600 apd that
the attorney general in view of this fact
had decided to allow the sale to proceed.

Captain and Steward Not Feeling Well.
But Nothing Serious Feared-Remain-

Vineyard Haven, Mass, October s.
The British steamer Honiton, hudson
from Progreso, Mex, September u, via
Norfolk, October 6, for Boston, anchored
Off Nobska, Vineyard Sound, about four
miles from this port today with loss OF
three men, probably from yellow fever.
On september 28th, just one day out
from Progreso, seaman Hank Gullikson,
native Of Norway, died of what is sup
posed to be yellow fever, and was buried
at sea. The second mate of the Honiton
VINO was the only available officer on
her deck, when she was hailed by the AS
soclated press representative, this after
noon, stated that Gullikson was ailing
the day the steamer left Progreso, bat
the port physician there pronounced it a
probable attack of malaria and no serious
consequences were anticipated. Immed-
lately after leaving port he became worse,
failed rapidly and soon succumbed. Sep
tember 80, chief engineer William Ladder,
OF Sunderland, Eng, was taken ill and
after on illness OF five days, he was also
buried at sea. He leaves q wife and
family at Sunderland, Eng. Yesterday
messroom steward Charles Read of Liver
pool, Eng. who was sick while the steam
er was at Hampton Roads, died of the
same disease and the body was lowered
into the sea just before the ship reached
Vineyard Sound. This forenoon 1t was
learned from the steamer that the captain
and steward were not feeling WE'LL but
it was claimed that they were not seri-

able to attend to his duties, but practi-
cally worn out with care nd anxiety. The
remainder of the crew of II men are re-

The Honiton stopped at Nobska to

ton pilot, who is expected to arrive this
evening on an English tramp steamer

of the Honiton and pilot her to Boston.
| AS far as could be learned no doctor
has been called to the ship today, but nc
one is allowed to board her.

MONEY ORDER BUSINESS.
Ii Source of Revenue to Government and
VIII Be Rewarded.

Washington, October S.-The posteffioe
department has adopted policy of gener$
al extension of the money order system.
During the past fiscal year almost 27 600, :
600 money orders were issued amounting
to little less than $40, 900. The in
ternational money orders amounted to
s15, 900, 900, while the amounts sdrawn on
the United States by foreign countries
did not exceed $5, COO, 600.
The total number of money order offices
now in operation is about 22, 900, and the
number probably will be increased to 80,
600 before the next fiscal year.
General Superintendent Metoalf of the
Money Order Office, said today, that the
cost to the department of maintaining q
money order service at post office was
less than five cents a year even if the
office transact no money order business.
The money order business now brings to
the government gross revenue of a
million dollars in fees, mostly net.
