statement that had they elected a
majority Of the lower house OF con

SUPERB FLOATS.
Far Ahead of Anything Heretofore
Seen Here.

The floats in the bicycle and indus
trial parade was the finest lot of floats
ever turned out in Redwood Falls.
They we're not so many as there have
been on previous occasions, but every
one showed hard work and a great
deal of skill. The procession came
down Second street from Lincoln, and
was headed by AL. Thiering and Miss
Jessie Waldron and Helen Lam
berton, riding a tandem bicycle,
attached by ribbons to a horse
rode by Robert Bager, the
two former representing and costumed
as Uncle Sam and Cuba. Then came
G. E. Lamberton's transfer float, after
which came the float of The GAZETTE,
representing each ten years growth
OF the paper, the last ten years being
nearly double all other years. Then
came the float of G. Fred. Thompson,
battleship neatly contrived out OF
the various articles of hardware sold
by that gentleman. Then came the
harness float of N. H. Mahowald,
forming complete saddlery scene. :,
The float of Francois & Schmahl
represented department store. and
showed big pile of work, and neat
ness of design. The float of Philbrick
g. Co. represented Uncle Sam and
Cuba: That of Schmahl & Jaehnings
represented baking scene on one of
the Garland stoyes and ranges sold by
that firm, with Miss Alma Liebenguth
doing the baking and Miss Helen
Dunnington acting as dishwasher.

MONSTER CELEBRATION.
CrdCker-JdCk of a Program DiShed
Up to a big Crowd
Monday.
The GdZette'S War Bulletins Added
Enthusiasm to the
Affair.

The celebration of July 4th in this
place, Monday, was the most successful
celebration held in this CITY for num-
ber of years. The attractions we're
better, the spirit was better, and the
crowd, while not the largest, or as
large, left the city with the feeling that
Redwood Falls had made every
promise but one, good. That one
promise was no fault of the general or
special committee. The balloon man
had given the committee q contract,
and had promised on his written word
of honor to be here, but there was no
forfeit posted, and the balloon man
proved himself a liar He has not
been heard from since the receiving of
his contract week or more ago.
Early in the morning the people
commenced coming to town, and at
$50 o'clock nearly all of our guests
we're in condition to remain for the
day. An immense crowd swarmed
around The GAZETTE bulletin board at
that time, it having been rumored that
important telegraphic news was about
to be posted. A destruction of Ger
vera's fleet was given to the big throng
in town. Firecrackers we're placed on
their metal, immense yells went up,
and the enthusiasm was only quelled
when it was announced that the BIZ
cycle and industrial parade was ready
to start. During the whole of the
magnificent parade the spirit of '76
was manifest, as it was throughout the
remainder of the day, only buoyed on
by the glad news from Santiago. The
dog show, the trapeze work, the slack
wire work, the ball game and all, we're
overshadowed by the news, and when,
at $50 o'clock another bulletin was
posted by The GAZETTE, confirming
the first bulletin, and adding more
particulars, the enthusiasm of the
crowd knew no bounds. In the even
ing Second street was ablaze. Bal
looms we're sent up, tar barrels and red
fire we're burned, sky rockets we're
touched, and no cracker in town was
big enough to make the crowd think
that they were getting touch of the
13-inch guns down near Santiago har-
Dor. In the evening, also, came the
minstrel show and the. dances and
when the day came to close it was
pronouced the most memorable since
the signing of the declaration of in
dependence.

Mrs. Frank L. Waters drove
over from Morton Tuesday afternoon
and spent few hours with friends
here.
w. A. Hauck left for Mason City,
Iowa, last Tuesday. He will return
to Redwood Falls in about a week,
after which he will 60 to Wood Lake,
where he will reside in the future.
Mr.. Hauck authorizes The GAZETTE to
state that he will not bring Mrs.
Hauck back with him.
Since the first side of this paper
went to press on Tuesday it has been
learned that J. A. Engelhart has Sc
cured possession of the Commercial,
and after July 18th will conduct the
same. 1t is understood that Mr.. En-
gelhart's lease is for one year, with the
privilege of purchasing at the end OF
that time.
A. B. Truesdell left stalk of corn
at The GAZETTE Office Tuesday even
ing. It measures q few inches over
six feet from roots to tip, and was
grown this year on his lots in this
city. The corn is of the white dent
variety, Mr.. Truesdell thinks it the
largest July 4th corn ever raised in
this section of Minnesota, and con-
tends that it will be a blue ribbon
winner at the county fair.

6. p. GREENE DEAD.
Passed Away Peacefully Last Sun
day Afternoon.

German P. Greene, one of the old
est residents of this section of Mime
sota, and for many years. = familiar
figure on the streets Of Redwood Falls,
passed away at his home on Second
and East streets at five o'clock Sun
day afternoon Heart failure, brought
on by the clock of life having been
completely worn out, was the cause of
death. He was SO years old.
During the past three years, Mr..
Greene, who, prior to that time, was
showing remarkable vitality, COM
menced failing. To his acquaintances
he contended, up to within q few
months of the time of his death, that
he was In excellent health and spirits,
but to his nearer friends, and particu-
larly to the writer Of this article, with
whom he spent many hours in the ed
itorial rooms of The GAZETTE, he ad-
mitted that the light of life was dim
ming slowly, and he could feel it a
great deal more acutely than physi-
clans could see it.
Mr.. Greene was intensely liberty
loving, and naturally when the strug-
gle for freedom had taken such q firm
foundation in Cuba, he became deep
ly interested in that unhappy isle. He
was impatient with President Cleve-
land for failure to act, and for q long
time thought that President Mckinley
would not carry out his party's pledge.
But when the Maine disaster was read,
and the Congress of the United States
declared that Cuba was and of right
ought to be free, Mr.. Greene felt that
God was good in allowing him to live
as long as He had. Later, when the
war bulletins were flashed over the
wire to The GAZETTE, and the news of
Dewey's victory in Manila bay was
read to him as he sat in the Office, he
shouted with joy, and with tears roll
ing down his cheeks spoke words of
praise for American arms These bull
letins excited the old patriarch intense.
ly, and it became necessary to with
hold some of the facts contained in
them, just before he was seized with
the final stroke from which he never
recovered, and which was brought on
by reading startling war news. On a
Sunday afternoon, several weeks ago.
this stroke came, and ever since that
time, up to the day of his passing
away, the day on which Sampson and
Schley struck fatal blow to Spanish
arms in Santiago, the venerable aged
gentleman passed away, quietly and
peacefully, and with clear conscience

This great book tells all about medicine
that is an unfailing cure for all weakness
and disease of the delicate organs distinctly
feminine. That medicine is DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. During the past
thirty years many thousands of women
have used it with marvellous results. 1t
inparts health, vigor, virility, strength and
elasticity to the organs that bear the bur
dens of maternity. It fits for wifehood and
motherhood. Taken during the period of
CESSATION, it makes the coming of baby easy
and almost painless. It completely BAN
iskes the pain and misery that are the re-
suit of a woman's neglecting her womauly
health. An honest medicine dealer will
give you what you ask for, and not Try to
persuade you to take some inferior substi-
tute for the little added profit he may
make thereon.
Mrs. Jas. Schaffner, Of Freemansburg North

The funeral occurred at the Chris
tian church, of which the deceased
had long been a member, at two o'clock
last Tuesday afternoon. It was large
" attended. Rev. K. w. White
preached the funeral sermon, calling
especial attention to the long life of
the deceased. The music was fur
ished by the church choir, under, the
direction of Prof. Sweetman, and con-
sisted of songs that were especially
pleasing to the deceased during his
life time. The remains were inferred
in the Redwood cemetery, II. F. Clip
fell, George Whittet, T. Fl. King, 3.
B. Hale, John Clark, Jr., and John
McPhee acting as pail bearers.
German P. Greene was born on
Dec. %, 1916, and was consequently
very near 50 years old at the time of
his death. His birthplace was in New
York State, where he attended such
schools as the country then afforded,
and also graduated from one of the
Eastern colleges. He came to Mime
sofa IS years ago, aud shortly after
his arrival in this State he settled in
Renville county, taking up home
stead in Black Hawk township, and
residing for time in the house of the
Indian agent, Brown, for the Upper
Sioux Agency. He farmed it in Rem
vile county for about Is years; after
which he moved to Redwood Falls,
since which time he has followed the
occupation of an architect.
Mr.. Greene was a reader on all inn
portant issues of the day, and during
the early school history of this city he
lectured on several subjects, the pro-
ceeds of which we're turned over to
the fund for purchasing books for the
school. He wes Greenbacker, dur
ing the short career of that party, leav-
ing the Republican element for that
issue, and after that time his afilia-
tions were with the Democrats or Pro-
h;bitionists. He was great student
of Henry George, and read all of the
works of that single tax author.
Mr.. Green was positive character,
always insisting that he was right. and
ready and willing to argue his point
with remarkable tenacity. At times
be grew heated in his political discus
sions, but in his calmer moods he was
willing to pass over and smile at the
heat of debate.
He was married three times, and
leaves q wife and one son to mourn
his loss. The son is Frank Greene,
who held the Office of county superin-
tendent of schools of Renville county
for number of years.
