THE BRIDGE DAM.
The Acquiring of the oproperty
Along the River Commenced.

The committee appointed, at the
meeting of citizens in O. L. Dorm
berg s Office a couple of weeks ago
for the purpose of acquiring the
real estate along the banks of the
Redwood river, with the view of
erecting dam Is or 20 feet high a

turning the property over to the

earnestly for the scheme
At the absolute sale of lands for
taxes delinquent in 1895 and prior
years, on Monday afternoon Of last
week, A. c. Burmeister, on behalf
of the committee, purchased all of
the property known as 1.-THE Delhi
mill property, which includes the
tract where the mill once stood. the
old dam site, and all Of the rights to
back water for quite a distance
south of where the dam is located.
This property was bought for about
80 cents on the dollar. But mas
much as the Flour City National
Bank of Minneapolis had a prior
lien upon the land it became neces-
sary for Mr.. Burmeister to pay the
bank about 500 for quit claim
deed to the premises in question,
and he will have to be reimbursed
for this amount, as well as for the
amount he paid in buying the land
at the tax sale.
Mr.. Werder is still considering
what the value of his property is
worth, and to what extent he will be
injured by the backing of the water
at that point. He has been using
all OF the tract wanted by the city,
for cattle, sheep and hog yards, as
well as for poultry, ETC., and he
estimates that his loss will be quite

EASTERN STAR PARTY.
Brilliant Social Event at the NAIL
Last Wednesday Evening.


The May partv given by Charity
Chapter No. 35, Order of the Eastern
Star, at the Masonic hall on We'd
nesday evening of last week was
one of the most successful social
events held in Redwood Falls for
many a day. In the neighborhood
of 100 invitations were sent out to
people in and outside of Masonic
circles, and Judging from the large
crowd present nearly every invita-
ton was responded to.
AS the guests arrived at the Sec
ond floor entrance to the Masonic
apartments they were greeted by a
reception committee consisting of
Mrs. Joseph Tyson, the Misses
Lena Theiring and Grace Chad
bourne and Messrs. H. n. Bell, G.
A. Jaehning and ]. A. Schmahl.
They were ushered into the parlor
or lodge room, and in the former
all kinds of games were INDUCED in.
When most CT the guests had arrived
an informal program was presented
in the lodge room, and this consisted
of music by the Redwood Falls
orchestra, a solo by Miss Grace
Chadbourne, a vocal Duet, by the
Misses Mabelle and Dorothy Clay
son, a humorous speech on the
initiatory work of the Order of
the Eastern Star, by 0. L. Dorm
berg, and in which Mr. Dornberg
gave an excellent humorous expose
account of the Star degrees, a ladies'
quartette consisting of the Misses
Clayson, Miss CARR. Isham and
Miss Grace Ferris. followed by
another orchestral selection.
At the close Of the program the
doors to the dining and drill room,
or dancing hall, were thrown open,
and those who wished were invited
to participate in that. source OF en-
joyment, while others were invited
to the parlor where games were re-
newed. The dancing continued I'm.
til quite late hour Thursday morn
ing.
During the evening refreshments,
consisting of ice cream and cake
were served from a booth in the
ante-room of the lodge. The booth
was erected for the purpose and
was handsomely decorated with the
National colors, while huge boquets
of flowers adorned the refreshment
counter, as we'll as other portions OF
the Masonic apartments. The
flowers consisted of plum blossoms,
lilacs. roses, etc. The service was
under the direction of Clarence W.
Porter, the ice cream caterer of this
city, and was unlimited and excep-
tionally fine.
The ladies having charge of the
affair are to be congratulated on the
affair, socially as we'll as financially.

ne four terms of court, 81 81 aver
age Of somewhat less than two
counts against each individual for
that length Of time.
THE average total fine imposed
upon these 80 men under these
thirty-nine cases during these four
terms of court was 1924, and every
one Of the thirty-nine with one ex-
ception Che is in jaiD is in business

these calculations.
my attention has been repeat
eddy called to the fact that local
officers after making raids and Sc
curing in some cases large quanti-
ties of liquor, have found the grand
jury under some circumstances un-
willing to grant an indictment; and
the case, after passing through the
municipal court, has been dropped
and the liquors returned. Equally
suggestive is the fact that business
men, men of influence in the county,
politically, socially, and in some
cases, I am led to believe, religious
ly, stand in the way of the law S en-
forcement; stand in the way even OF
the attempts which are made to en-
force it, and not infrequently, by
personal solicitations, seek to turn
the officers from the plain path Of
their official duties, because, for.
sooth, interference with certain
liquor dealers would be detrimental
to business.
Can we blame the officers for re-
garding such advice as an indica
ton of a prevailing sentiment suffi
GENTLY strong to warrant them in
regulating their official conduct by

each term of court. Meantime, and
all the time, with almost no excep-
ton, the business Of liquor selling
goes on. While the liquor dealer is
facing the Judge in court to receive
his sentence for violating the law of
the State his place of business is
open and his bar tender is as busy
as usual.
The officers claim that the meth
DDS they pursue is restricting the
business and closing some places.
All the evidence the committee has
been able to gather, after most
painstaking investigation. goes to
show that the business OF LIQUOR
selling is not being restricted in
Androscoggin county; that the num-
Der of places where liquor is sold is
not being diminished, and that
within the past year new places
have been opened. Still further. it
is plain that the business is not be-
ing driven into the dark. Liquor
selling is done openly and bars,
with their furnishings of glasses
and bottles, may be seen from the
street.

AHMED PASHA IMPRESSED.
The Turkish Vice Admiral Praises
the Ship Yards in the
United states.

Ahmed Pesha. the Turkish vice ad-
miral now in this country, has re-
turned to Washington from visit to
Cramps shipyards at Philadelphia.
The admiral has been making flying
visits since his arrival at New York to
the various naval equipment works in
this part of the country. He expresses
himself as greatly impressed by the
facilities in this country for building
and lifting out war vessels and says
that in this respect the United States
has no superior in the world, if in
deed an equal.
The end of Ahmed Pasha's stay in
this country is probably near at hand.
He has been in III health ever since his
arrival here and any further inter
course he may have with the ship
builders of the country probably will
be carried on by correspondence
rather than by personal visits.
Although no order for cruiser to
be constructed in this country for the
Turkish government actually has been
issued it is very probable that one
will be in short time.

A GRATIFYING INCREASE.
Noted in the Amount and Variety OF
American Products Entering
Turkish Ports.

A gratifying increase in the amount
and variety of American products en-
tering Turkish ports has been noted
of late, according to a report to the
state department from Consul General
Dickinson at Constantinople. Wire
nails and other articles of American
manufacture. says the consul, have
taken complete possession of the
Levantine markets, and when other
staple articles of American make are
once thoroughly introduced, their
market in Turkey can also be con-
trolled by our manufacturers. Con-
sui General Dickinson reports an inno-
vation in the shape of orders for
American boots and shoes, from lead
ing Turkish merchants, their unde-
niable superiority over the European
product assuring extensive sale in
Turkey. The greater part of some
200, 900 tons of railroad material to be
used in constructing the new Nile
railway will be furnished, it is said,
by American manufacturers.

solemn. good laugh is one of the
best aids to education. Still order is
only desirable in rare moments, good
order always being somewhat noisy.

they whisper, whether they smile, and
almost whether they have happy
