THE FAMINE IN INDIA.

The attention OF our community
has been called to the sufferir g in
India by printed reports of the des-
tuition but more directly and
thoroughly by the efforts of Rev.
Henry Goodacre. who secured a
meeting of representative citizens
on the evening of Feb. Goth in the
basement of the NJ. E. church. Rev.
Goodacre was chosen chairman of
the meeting and Rev. T. J. Barack
man, secretary. The meeting was
opened with prayer, after which
there was discussion concerning the
need Of the sufferers and means and
methods of meeting it.
It was finally decided to organize
the county for the work of collecting
means of relief and number of
committees were named and chair
man chosen.
These committees are to be ex-
tended all through the county by
appointment through the chairmen
of each.
The chairman of each committee,
together with the local pastors, con-
stitute the executive committee of
the county organization.
This executive committee met at
the close of the meeting of the citi-
zens. Henry Goodacre was chosen
permanent chairman and f. J.
Barackman permanent secretary.
It is hoped that all the pastors,
Christian workers, newspaper men
and teachers of schools will call at
tention to this benevolent work and
urge immediate action in harmony
with the suggestions of the county
organization.

INCOMpATIBILITY.
A Wife Finds Her Husband and
Then He Disappears.

A case of domestic incompatible
ity came to light last I riday, when
a well-known young man of this
city, not long a resident but we'll
known on account of his musical
talent and social standing, disap-
peared.
1t appears that the young man is
married man, fact not generally
known prior to the appearance here
of his wife from southern Mime
sofa town on Monday of last week,
although intimate friends of the
young man were aware of it. When
the wife appeared the young hus-
band registered her at the CONNER
cial Hotel under an assumed name,
and she remained there until the
Friday afternoon train, after hubby
had disappeared, and she found her
self alone in this city, and she re-
turned to her Southern Minnesota
home.
It seems that the wife came here
to find out what was the matter with
hubby, he not having written to
her for couple of months before
her arrival. AS soon as she came
to town she called on the young
man, who was connected with ma
chine firm, and had several extend
ed interviews with him, but no sat
isfactory conclusion was reached.
On the other hand, hubby told her
as late as Thursday afternoon that
he would not live with her any
more, and after telling the news
paper man there were two sides to
the question, left quietly over the
st. Louis east bound train Friday
morning.

ANNUAL MEETING.
Redwood Creamery Received Near.
1y 100000 pounds Of MIX.

The annual meeting of the stock
holders Of the Redwood Falls Coop
erative creamery association was
held at the court house last Satur-
day afternoon. The meeting was
presided over by Chairman Stew
art. The attendance was not large.
Immediately after the meeting was
opened the secretary and treasurer
submitted their annual statements.
and they were approved.
The secretary S statement showed
that 1,704, ,2IO pounds of milk had
been received by the Redwood
creamery during the year closing
Feb. 1st, 1900. From this 63, ,874
pounds of butter fat were secured,
making total of 76,877 pounds of
butter. The average net price paid
for butter fat 1916 per pound. The
average yield of butter fat to
100 pounds Of milk was 3.74 pounds.
The average yield Of butter to 100
pounds of milk was AL. The aver
age price paid for 100 pounds of 4
per cent milk was 1873.
The receipts during the year
amounted to $14, ,654. &c, $12, ,588. 81
being received from the sale of

The latter gave the visitors .hree bases on balls and a timely hit, followed by a two bagger made the local aggregation somewhat nervous about the outcome. Their fears were not realized, however, for the vfsi- tors were unable to tie the score.
