The University Town Finds Itself
Very Happy,

Fermillion merchants are busy with
the fall trade. The stores are crowded
with buyers and a most successful
business season is in progress. Build
Ing continues, the latest being the large
brick building on Main street, by Mr..
'clie, to serve as a billiard hall, bowl
; alley, bath rooms, etc. The build
> will be 25x1OO, Iicely finished and
furnished. 1t will undoubtedly furnish
a favorite resort for recreation and
pleasure. No liquor will be sold there.
The town of Vermillion is now ex-
ceedingly dry, the citizens cordially
supporting the efforts Of States Attor-
nty Tilton to stamp out the liquor
traffic. All believe hat we have the
cleanest school town in the state, no
resort of any kind being open to entics
young men. The advantage of Vermill-
ion in this respect over some others
ought to appeal to the temperance
sentiment Of the state.

These beds are confined by a wooden

LOSSES WE'RE BIG.
The Cold Wave Resulted in Heavy
Losses Near Huron.

The cold spell of the early Part of last
week resulted to heavy losses to vege-
table gardeners around Huron. At
Hitchcock, A. ]. Glidden, who operates
a large irrigated produce garden, lost
between fifteen and twenty tons Of
cabbage, ready for market; Joy Bros.
of Huron, and r. d. Wharton, both lost
an immense amount of cabbage, and
the latter also lost several thousand
bunch-s of celery. He has, however,
stored 5000 punches. Hundreds OF
bushels of potatoes were also frozen.
An unusual scarcity of help prevented
gardeners from securing their crops,
although big wages were offered. Po-
tatoes are coming into market in great
quantities, ana several car loads have
been shipped to other points. The crop
is larger and the quality better thar
estimated early in the season, and the
tubers have dropped from 81 per BUSH
ell to 60 cents.
