Parties who we're in the vicinity OF
Lake Herman during the rain storm
last evening say it was the heaviest rain.
TALL they ever witnessed. Some assert
that 1t raised the lake six inches to their
certain knowledge while others claim it
raised q foot. The wind from the south,
however, forced the water towards the
upper end OF the lake during the storm
which probably accounts for the back
current in the inlet at the north end. 1t
is reported this morning that the lake is
now flowing through the outlet at the
south end.
Mis-. V. X. Walden with her little son
Vincent, went north to Lake Preston
last evening en- route to Rochester,

swallowed a portion OF concentrated lye
a few years ago, and while he has practi-
cHlly recovered, the entrance to the
stomach is somewhat contracted. While
eating ham at dinner Monday, a piece
found Judgment and the little fellow was
taken to his former physician at the hos
pital for its removal. Mr.. Walden &C.
companied them as far as Lake Preston,
returning by the morning train.
AS some who have borrowed schoc1
money from the state through the

give it due notice OF the repayment and
pay also sixty days interest in addition.
II the county receives the partial pay
ments with the intention OF reloaning 1t
again it must also pay interest on

and II the county wishes to make a
larger loan than returned the state will
furnish it more money to make the loan
