Some dastardly miscreant last week
maliciously ruined q valuable COW, the
property of Henry Fortwengler who re-
sides in the town of Cottonwood about
two miles south of this city, cutting the
tongue out at the roots. Mr.. Fortweng-
Ter had noticed a suspicious looking in
dividual hanging around the woods near
by but about the time the COW came
home mutilated he had disappeared
Sheriff Block of Nicollet county is on
his track, it being suspected that the
same party is wanted in that county fol
various misdemeanors, and it is to be
hoped that he has been apprehended be
fore this. It would be hard to devise q
punishment to fit the case of a man who
willfully mutilates dumb beast.
In speaking Of the anniversary cele-
bration of the Maccabees in that city
the Sleepy Eye Herald says: Mr.. Clin-
ton who acted as master of ceremonies
throughout introduced Attorney Hoidale
of New Ulm whose ability as speaker
is increasing every time he appears. Mr..
Hoidale gave the entertainment. a very
deserved compliment in graceful Ian
guage and tried to make believe that he
couldn't speak to mixed audience be-
cause he was used only to speaking to
audiences which knew less than himself

its phenomenal groth and the great work
it is doing. His speech was short but

Rev. G. A. Walthausen of Courtland,
is this week attending the annual con-
ference of the Evangelical Association
at Wells. Preparations are very nearly
completed for the erection of church
in this city, the matter only awaiting the
favorable action OF the conference which
it will no doubt receive, and it is sex-
pected that upon his return the necess-
ary steps to secure desirable site will
be taken and the building be commenc-
ed at an early day. While the mem
bership of the association in this city is
Lot large there are two very strong con-
gregations, one to the east and one to
the west, contiguous to the city
and the erection of church here will
be the means of bringing quite large
number of families here to locate per-
manently. We are informed that very
nearly the required amount of money is
already pledged and if the action Of the
conference is favorable church Will be
erected costing from $4,000 to So, 900.
