THE WORKrIEN PICNIC.
United W0rkmen and Their Friends Cele.
brate in H0nner's Grove.

IS
The 18th of July picnic announced
for Homer S Grove resulted pleas
antly for all concerned The storm
of the night before, taken il CON
nection with the shoWery indica-
tions for the 4th, kept quite a nun
sberof the fraternity from attending
but did not prevent a fairly good
turnout and an enjoyable social
time "a the hour for luncheon
baskets and hampers were Ilnpacked
and the contents placed on long
tables provided forthe purpose, the
picknickers assembling IN congenial
neighborhood groups and drawing
from a common and unlimited sup
ply OF ice cream and lemonade
served freely to all corners.
a speaker S stand and ample seats
We're arranged for the speaking and
singing which followed the lunch
con. An organ was procured from
Postmaster Hammer of North Red
wood and after singing America, a
quartette composed of Messrs. Ber-
gen, Howard, S. G. Peterson and
Will Whittet sang q. number Of Sc
lections patriotic and otherwise.
Attorney Howard was introduced
as the speaker by S. o. Mason. Mr..
Howard put. himself right with the
audience by stating to begin with
that he was not going to weary them
With an GRAFTON. He jollied his
brother Workmen by reminding
them that they were the pioneers of
all the fraternal orders that have
taken up the work of providing for
the. widows and orphans by the
fraternal assessment plan, and next
to the Grand Army of the Republic
the United Workman had the right
of the line IN the procession of hon
II b
orable societies. After. a funny
story or two had been told and the
American Eagle stroked in a modest
way, Lawyer Howard tried to com
pei S, e. Peterson to come to the
front and speak out, but the latter
gracefully declined to be worked
that way
The very large representation of
juveniles on the grounds had their
innings last, in series of contests
IN running, jumping and kindred
sports. These. were enjoyed until
the crowd began to break up to go
home.

TURNS IT OVER.
D. D. Cheney Turns Over All the Securi-
ties Given Him by Gronnerud.

A meeting Of the creditors of
Hans Gronnerud was heldin Mime
apolis on Wednesday Of last week.
and the Morton Enterprise states
that tsthe meeting D. d. Cheney,
the heaviest creditor, who accepted
transfers Of certain securities, from
#Gronuerud last April as a guarantee
of the paYment of a portion of what
9Gronnerud owed him, turned over
to the. receiver 100 acres of land.
$50, 600 Of bank stock, S., 500 Of the
stock of the Renville County Alb
stract Co, $50, 900 worth of stock
in DePue Bros. 6 Co. manufacture
ing establishment, and 300 cash.
Mr.. Cheney probably observed
that he could not avoid turning this
over in case a suit was brought, as
the bankruptcy actsprovides that all
assets held three months prior to
making the petition in bankruptcy
must be turned over into the assets
Of the bankrupt. This provision
was incorp orated IN the law for the
purpose Of preventing the defraud-
ing Of creditors who had no knowl-
edge Of the intention Of the bank
lrupt.
IS a result Of the turning over Of
these assets BY Mr.. Cheney it is
probable that the creditors will re-
Iceive about 50 cents on the dollar
for the claims they hold against
Gronnerud

COULDN'T GET u.
An Unsuccessful Attempt to Blow Open
the Northwestern Safe.


An attempt was made to blow
open the safe Of the Northwestern
depot iu this city on Thursday
might Of last week The attempt
was unsuccessful tt was made
some time after mid might.
The blowers gained admission
to the depot By breaking window
light on the south side, directly IN
front Of the tables where the tele-
graph instruments are located then
unlocking the window lock, raising
the window and passing IN This
was done after they broke a window
Slight#on the west side, raising the
curtain, and finding out Just where
{ the lock was located
Once inside they found the outer
door Of the safe unlocked That is,
the combination had MOI been fas.
tened. according to the practice of
the Office. The inner door, how
lever. is constructed on the anti
burglar plan It consists of three
plates of Harveyized steel. The
outer plate, to which is fastened the
handle and combination screw, IS
fastened to the other two plates by
several large screws The other
two plates, and on the inner side of
the inner one, is the combination
lock, are fastened together by some
10 or 20 screws. The blowers
placed dynamite in the crevice
around the outer plate, attached
their fuse, and then soaped the crew
ice thoroughly to retain the, force Of
the charge The explosion evident
Fly followed.
One piece of the outer plate was
blown through the partition between
the Office and waiting room, cut
doWna stove-pipe and landed IN
the east wall, directly under the
chimney support. Another piece
lodged in the partition The COM
bination and the other two plates
refused to yield, and the blowers
evidently gave up the job and left
town.
The attempt to blow up the. safe
was not discovered until the follow
ing morning, when the operator APP
peared on the scene, and found
everything covered with dynamite
dust, as we'll as the safe in the con
dition mentioned above. The oper-
ator left the depot shortly after 10
O'clock the night before.
Agent Brammer came down later
and made his report to. the proper
officials. His books were all IN the
safe and consequently the work of
making out his June report was re-
tarded: it being necessary TO get an
expert safe man here to open the
combination. There WASH t over so
cents in the safe The burglars
pried open the money drawer but
found it empty.

be the annual one, and the women

White Ribbon sisters here. By
some means it had been delayed In
transmission. It was full of en-
couragement and desire to help
them. and told how her fixed habit
of wearing the White Ribbon badge
at all times had given her oppor-
tunities of advocating the w. G.. r..

had been read by Mrs. Mcmillan in
