& On July 4 the batch Of reduced rate
tickets at the G. N. depot were ex-N
hausted long before the crowd were
through applying for them to Cass
Lake, when the agent gave out that
full rate tickets only would he sold. 4
Consequently many Of our citizens
were deprived Of an outing to our
sister city, not feeling that they should
be compelled to pay full fare after the
company had promised reduced rates.
The difference in price was not so
much, but still people did not feel like
patronizing road that was too utterly
penurious to keep sufficient tickets on
hand to accommodate all who might
call for them.

that, by right Of his Indian mother, who

today, in the public logging of William
III. Decker, horse thief. Decker has been
i'll, and is subject to violent attacks of

heard him sentenced to an hour in the
pilory and twenty lashes, he suggested
that the corporal punishment part OF the
sentence be rrmitted, ns the man could
not stand it.
Coming out into the chill air today
Decker shivered and his strength SEEM
cd to leave him as he faced the post.
Sheriff, Reedy applied the lash lightly
and much more rapid than usual, making
it not severe punishment. Decker
upon reaching the prison corridor, seemed
to recover his nerve. and he thanked the
warden for the kind treatment he had
received.

Fifty Pigeons Perished With the

the Fire Plainly Seen
In This City.

George Fisher and James Reed for
some unaccountable reason took a notion

slumber in this queer place for men to

nected with it, number of chickens and
greater number of pigeons were burn

When they went to sleep the men left
a coal oil lamp burning. Shortly before
o'clock yesterday morning the lamp was
upset, it is said by Fisher, and the place
wns set on fire. So rapidly did the coop
burn that before Fisher got out his feet
were burned.
The coop and pigeon house were totally
destroyed. Sixteen chickens and about
fifty pigeons fell victims to the flames.
The reflection from the fire was seen III
the city and the few people that were
about thought there was big fire in the
