and is now residing il her resi-
dence on Fourth street.
Harry Warner wheeled in from
Minneapolis on Tuesday evening Of
last week and is visiting with the
family of Fred. L. Warner and other
relatives in the city.
G. W. Mead, chairman of the COM
mittee on grounds for the enca,np-
ment and celebration, is entitled to-
special mention for the hard work
and excellent management of his
portion of the programme. Besides,
Mr.. Mead did considerable work
on the outside.
Sleepy Eye Dispatch: George
Carroll was. this week given charge
of the Northwestern station at
Lamberton and his many friends
here will be delighted to know that
the promotion is likely to be a
permanent one. George is a good
railroad man and the people of
Lamberton will fine him genial,
accommodating and thoroughly re-
liable.
An idea of the crowd that was in
Redwood last Wednesday can be
had from the reports from the no
tells. That night tired visitors taxed
the hotel capacity to the extent of
sleeping in halls, parlors, on stairs,
ETC., and in many cases, hay mows
were occupied. Men and women
slept in halls and parlors with their
clothes on, occupying chairs, sofas,
and floors.
A Glencoe paper states that Will
Abbott, of St. Paul, who was at one
time in the Register force, visited
with friends here Monday. Mr.. Alb
bolt contemplates starting new
paper at Bird Island. He is an ex-
perienced and up-to-date news
paper man and should he finally de-
eide to put in plant at that place
he would give the people of that
community good paper.
The Beaver Falls correspondent
Of the Renville county papers writes
as follows: Our board of super
visors met last Monday to make a
bonfire of the township railroad
bonds deposited with Hans Gron-
nerud. OF course they did not
make the bonfire nor won tdo so for
some time. It might be we'll for the
board to examine the contract pretty
closely. We understand payment
of the bill for printing these bonds
were refused. We advise the board
to pay the bill and can give some
pretty good reasons for it.
The storms of Wednesday and
Thursday afternoons did consider
able of damage over in Renville
county, and particularly around
Beaver Falls. Reports from there
state that the wind mills belonging
to large number of farmers are
scattered over the prairies, almost
c )mplete wrecks. In one case an
clubhouse door was turn from it's
hinges, lifted into the air and sent
flying against the sharp zinc of one
mill, breaking the door in. two and
then dropping it to the ground.
Outhouses in Beaver Falls were
turned over and number of trees
along the creek were broken down.
Lightning struck in several places.
No reports of injury to life had
come up to Friday night.

considerably poorer, and north of
this line they are very poor. In all
sections the crops are spotted, there
being a very few fields that are
much better than others in the vi
cinity. Oats and wheat are being
moved for hay, or plowed up for
other crops, in the northern and
central portions of the state. A
large proportion of the wheat and
oats, except in the best sections,
have heads on stalks from 6 to 8
inches long, which is too short for
gathering. A fair crop of winter
rye is being cut, and winter wheat
will be ripe in a few days. Corn and
flax are uneven in stand and in size;
the best are standing the drought
remarkably well, but there are some
fields past hope. The only counties
reporting good hay crops are Fill
more and Houston; elsewhere the
hay crop is practically a failure.
Having is now in progress. Apples
are dropping, but this natural thin
ming will probably be beneficial.
Rain will benefit wild meadows,
corn, fax, forage crops, and prevent
dangerous fires, but it must come
soon. The week has been one of dan,
ger from fires set by sparks in grass
fields by passing locomotives.

acecha una mariposa
que, for matizada y suelta,
ostenta en- un aire de orc
dos petalos que alctean!
Oiio que la obscura escama
profesa a la pluma esplendida!
;Inmundo rencor de oruga!
;Eterna y mezquipa. guerra
do tOdo lC que sc arrastra
contra todo 10 que vuela.
