Messrs. Hilsdale and sprarue vii

Messrs. Hilsdale and Sprague will
complete the continuous walk on the
north side of Third-st., between Main
and Oak-sts. The outside eight feet
will be of concrete, and the steps next
the building will be of concrete
blocks, in order that they may be re-
moved without injury when they shall
build.
1t is unfortunate that the Sank
Centre house management should
have been unjustly criticised by
the Melrose Beacon, and the matter
reproduced in the St. Cloud Times,
in that number of ladies are in
volved. The party, consisting of
perhaps thirty five-not guests of
the house-came there at the close
of an entertainment to wait for the
passenger train east, which was
three hours late, and they were
welcomed politely, and made com.
Portable; but as might very natur.
ally occur under like circumstances,
their talking and laughing was
louder than they realized. In JUS
tice to the guests of the house they
were requested more than once to
be more quiet-but they took Of
Tense at the admonition, hence the
unpleaSantness. Mr.. and Mrs.
Paris have no desire to reply to the
unfounded criticism in any such
terms as they would feel justified
in doing under the circumstances.
One thing is sure-the Sank Cen
tree house is always hospitable,
conducted so as to give satisfac.
ton to its patrons,and the rights and
comfort of its guests are the first
consideration on the part of the
host and hostess.

A Big Suit

A. G.. Whitney, of this city, has just
filed the papers in the United States
Circuit court at Fargo, North Dako-
ia, in an action commenced by him
against Richard Sykes, of Sykeston,
in said state, to recover 100000 as
damages for the breach of contract
to sell So, $40 acres of land situated in
the counties of Wells, Foster, La
Moure and Stutsman, I'm that state.
Mr.. Whitney made written contract
with Richard Sykes to purchase this
large tract of land, and agreed to
pay 5000, 900 for the same, in which
lands there was profit to him, if Mr..
Sykes had fulfilled and carried out
agreement, of $3.50, 900, for which
amount with interest and costs of suit,
he has instituted the present action.
The case is very important one, not
only on account of the large amount
of money involved, but also on ac-
count Of some very interesting legal
questions.-St. Cloud Times.

CHANGE OF POST OFFICE.

The citizens of Sank Centre
were quite surprised to learn, by
way of Washington dispatches to
the twin city dailies, that the
post office was about to be remov.
ed from the Barto building on Third
street to the Whipple building on
Main street, distance of nearly
two blocks.
The explanation, however, is
simple enough, upon investigation.
Mr.. Hilsdaie, the postmaster, said
that it was practically a necessity.
His lease of the Barto building had
ended, and as his term of office ex.
pires within a year he is not able
to make lease, except from month
to month, whereas Gunther Hille-
rud, the hardware merchant, had
offered Gov. Barto a,higher rental
and to lease for five years. Under
the conditions it became necessary
for him to consider a location which
would be satisfactory to the people
and the post office department. But
two suitable locations presented:
the Keller building and the Whip
pie building, and the matter was
referred to the department. In
view of the fact that the Keller
building isa frame structure where
as the Whipple building is brick.
led to the selection of the latter
and when the decision was made
the postal authorities gave out the
news to Washington correspondents
of the twin city dailies who tele-
graphed it to their papers-he1ce
the first notification that even Mr..
Hilsdale had of it was through
the daily press.
Naturally Third street would like
to have retained the office, but
when it is considered that during
the past twenty-five years the post
office has been located on Main
street only four years, and then on
the east side, it will be seen that
there is no great cause of COM
plant.
The new quarters are all right,
plenty large enough and only a
few rods further from the intersec-
ton of Third and Main streets, than
it was before.
The change of location was made
during Wednesday night and this
morning business commenced at
the new stand.

Fred B. Rowe, who has been identi--
fed with Sank Centre business inter.
ests in various ways for more than a.
decade, has purchased the Merchants
Grain Co.'S elevator of Messrs. How
and Hilsdale, and will engage in the
general grain business. The purchase
includes the two small buildings south
OF the elevator building, and the con-
sideration was $4,000.
In addition to wheat, Mr.. Rowe will
purchase corn, rye, barley and other
grains, possibly potatoes and other
products. He will be in the market
for hogs, stock and to an extent
horses. In fact, it is the purpose of
Mr.. Rowe to act as middle man for
the convenience of the farmer in as
sisting him in realizing cash for his
farm output.
This is a line of business much
needed here and no man is better quail
fed to meet the demand than Fred B.

Brick laying on the Hilsdale building
was begun with vigor on Monday last,
and already the side walls are up one
story, and the lining of the first floor
is laid. The contractor is due to have
the building complete and ready for
occupation on September /.
The hansen building is also well
under way-the basement completed,
the first floor lining laid, a portion of
the brick work done. No side walls
will have to be put up as it is sand
wiched between the Kranz building on
one side and the Hilsdale block on the
other.
The walls of the Perkins block are
nearly completed, and work is advanc-
ing rapidly. twill commence to pre-
sent finished appearance in the near
future.
The excavation for the Dean ware
house is completed and the foundation
walls nearly finished.
Ben Schoenhoff has made some not
able improvements upon his laundry,
building an addition and providing
more drying room. He has also
added considerable machinery to his
laundry equipment.
While all this work in progress on

i ragged appearance, yet when COM
plsted the improvement will be of such
q character a. to awaken pride in the

TRUTH AND REASON.

Truth al only be known and tested
by reason and experience the mind
being free to think and to express its
convictions and conclusions. To deny
this freedom prevents the mind from
investigating and discovering truth
from error or right from wrong. The
greatest b~enefactors of humanity are
Its deepest and boldest thinkers and
speakers. Even one such, let loose
upon the world, but now has left It,
has done more to liberate the minds of
man. woman and child than any
other thinker Of the century. Yet,
we are asked: "What did Ingersol
do He struck off the shackles of SUI
perstition from millions Of enslaved
minds. broke the bonds of false creed
and doctrine Of eternal punishment for
finite sin, saying: Il want it set for
ever opposite my name that | denied
this libel upon the divine character. /
believe in better things for the human
ace than that ninety-nine out of one
hundred shall be forever tortured in
hell, the keys held by an unmerciful
being No one has done so much to
lessen the fears of hell and so nearly
extinguished Its fires. But" say
some. The has taken away the hopes
of heaven and redemption through the
death Of Jesus" In speaking Of this
Judean reformer he said: Had | lived
in his day, | would have been his
friend The brightest lights that
have lived on this earth are not seen
clearly or appreciated in their day and
generation, for such strong light blinds
the eyes Of those who behold 1t so near
and time is needed to enable them to
see more clearly. AS Jesus sought to
teach the o effect of bloody sacra-
fees of beasts and birds for sins, so the
reformer Of our day showed the false
idea of vicious atonement for others
sins. The word is now sounding in the
ears of those who can hear it: Be
hold, | make all things anew" Even
a new heaven and new earth. Let
US hail with joy the coming day.

L. c. Trenowith, who has been working some claims on the mountain, has been finding consid- erable float carrying 50 per cent cop per, but could not locate the lead.

DANCING AN EVIL.
But Outrageous Carelessness Seems to Be the Real Trouble-Did
 Not Die From Dancing.

Miller. s. D., March 5.-The people some twenty miles southwest of here are considerably wrought up over the question of dancing, many of them be- lieving that at least two deaths have come to their vicinity to warn them of the evil. Besides Charles Garrett. promising young man, was thrown from his horse one cold night on his way to a dance and nearly perished, his hands having to be taken off, leav- ing him helpless for life.
 Now Amelia Schmidt lies at the point Of death with diphtheria which she contracted at 9 dance at. MT. Sinkey's, their boy dying the next day after the dance with the disease, though while the dance was going on it was nct known that diph- theria was in the house. There were about seventy-five at the dance and it is now predicted that the whole neigh borbood will be infected with it. The board of health cf this town has quar- antined the houses there where it ex- ists, hoping to prevent its spread.
