the party at the opera house in this
city that evening.
The creamery in Underwood,
which has been closed during the
summer, will probably resume op-
e:ations next week or the first week
in November. The summer patron
age was not sufficient to warrant it's
maintenance during that time.
Chauncey Butler, the well-known
auctioneer, who has been presiding
over large number of auction sales
of late, reports that the crowds at
these sales are usually very large
and that the bidding on the part of
those present is very spirited.

tleet-footed hounds, Winona, Schla-
rity and Lord Tanglefoot, and was
under instructions to enter the
three animals in the great Flandreau
Coursing contest for the Aberdeen
cup, valued at $500 Hold. was as
buoyant over success as most any
fancier of the coursing business
could be, and insisted that when he
returned toRedwood Falls he would
have the Aberdeen cup in his pos
session.
The election on the question of
removing the Renville county seat
from Beaver Falls to Olivia will
come off tomorrow. 1t has been
dry campaign for votes, undoubt-
edly on account of the political sea-
son which eliminates on Nov. 9Th,
and it seems to be pretty generally
agreed that SO far as the vote is
concerned Olivia will get more than
IS per cent. of those cast That a
legal row will follow the election, in
which the claims of Bird Island
will be set forth, there is no doubt.
A bet of 500 was made in this
city last Thursday evening that
Capt S. R. Van SAINT would be the
next Governor of Minnesota The
bet was first offered by a Lind
boomer, who, of coarse, offered to
take the Lind end 1t was quickly
covered The next day word came
from friend of Capt. Van SAINT, who
knows political conditions in the
Republican party better than any
other one man in St. Paul to place
5000 on Van SAINT, the money to be
placed as a lump amount Or iii two
separate bets of 500 each.
The local foot ball team expects to
leave here Saturday for Madison,
where they will do the gridiron act
with the foot ball team Of that place
Saturday afternoon. An attempt is
being made to run an excursion
back to Redwood Falls Immediately
after the game The Madison foot
ball players are quick and clever,
and while they do not compare with
the Redwood team, so far as weight
is concerned, they expect to make
up the difference in the smoothness
of their playing. Madison is great
foot ball town, and many Madison
heart will be broken if Redwood
comes back with the game to its
credit.
