Same Old Story,

A short time ago Percheron stall
lion was shipped into princeton by
Farnum Goss, of Leroy, Iowa, agent
for mclaughlin Bros, importers OF
Columbus, Ohio, and syndicate of
farmers, some fifteen or twenty, were
induced to buy the horse for 49,
900, the payments to be made in three
yearly notee. of 81 900 each. The par
ties to the contract for the purchase of
the horse signed joint note, and after
having got their names down in black
and white with an individual liability
of So 900, it began to dawn on some of
the members of the syndicate that
matters were rot satisfactory, and the
result is that an attorney has been Sc
Ecured to bring an action against Nc
Glaughlin Bros, to have the contract
cancelled, many charges being set up
in the complaint. Plaintiffs claim that
Some of the names to the note we're Sc
cured by misrepresentation and that
certain agreements made by the agent
have not been made good. It is also
alleged that the horse was never de-
livered to any of the parties to the con-
tract, and it looks like the matter
would end in the courts.

Milk Receipts Light.

The receipts of milk at the Bridge
man & Russell creamery at Princeton
are about half what they were a year
ago. The milk averages about 5000
pounds daily at the present time,
while last .year it ran over. 1000
pounds. The highest number of
pounds of milk received last year in a
single day was $4,000, while the high
est so far this year was week ago last
Monday when $500 pounds were re-
ceived. There are nineteen farmers
who are now hauling their cream to-
the creamery, having installed separa-
tors on their farms. These farmers
formerly hauled their milk to the
creamery and the nineteen separators
will account for some of the shortage in
the milk receipts. Many farmers are
not keeping as many COWS as the did
a year ago, the high price of feed last
winter being the cause. There are
some farmers who are shipping their
cream to the city, but the manager for
Bridgeman & Russell says the cream
that is being shipped out of town would
make but very little shortage at the
creamery.

Knew Him From WAY Back.

Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Newbert drove
over to Oxford in Isanti county last
week to visit Mr.. and Mrs. Shorrocks,
Mrs. Shorrocks being a sister of Mrs.
Newbert. Mr.. Newbert says that the
crops oyer that way are looking fine,
with the best of prospects. They stop
ped at Isanti and took dinner with Mr..
and Mrs. Dan Cooper and then pro-
ceeded on their journey: After they
got out in Athens township Mr.. New
bert stopped at a prosperous looking
farm to inquire the way, and was sur
prised when the owner said to him,
II think know you; you are Henry
'Newbert.'' Between thirty and forty
years ago when Mr.. Newbert lived
with his folks on farm at the head of
Cedar creek in the, then wilderness,
this same farmer. walked across from
Anoka with a pack on his back, his
only worldly possessions, and went to
work for Mr.. Newbert's father. He
now has fine farm and money in the
bank. >''. r...-, ;

A DEMENTED WOMAN,
nrs. Florence Rose. of lilo Leaves
~ With Her Little Child.
She Wanders Through the Woods for
Three Days and Was Found
at Christ Thinks. ...., -.

& Mrs. Florence Rose, the wife Of
Charles Rose who lives in Milo, was
committed to the hospital for the in
sane at Fergus Falls last Friday, and
Mr.. Rose and Sheriff Cla ggett started
for the asylum with the unfortunate
woman Saturday morning.
Mrs. Rose left her home with a child
eleven months old on Tuesday night
OF last week, and: was found Friday
morning at the farm of Christ Minks
north of town where she had remained
over night. After leaving home she
wandered around through the country
and spent the first night in the woods.
On Wednesday she came to Prince
ton in the evening carrying her child.
She went to the home of Chas. Rines
about 1870 o'clock and said that she
was from Milaca where her husband
had recently died and left her with
nothing but little furniture. Mr..
Rines noticed nothing out of the way
in need of place to remain over night
and he saw that she was provided for
at the Princeton hotel The next
morning the woman started out and
wandered about the country all day..
Sheriff Claggett and Marshal Newton
were notified Thursday and went in
search of the woman. They travelled
all the evening and continued their
search until three O'Clock in the morn
ing without being able to find the wo-
man. though they got several traces of
her. The last place they inquired was
at Minks, but she had not yet been
seen, and they had no sooner gone
than the woman appeared at the house
and remained for the night. The
sheriff was notified in the morning and
went and got her. She was taken be-
fore Judge Van Alstein and vas ex-
amined by the insanity board and ad-
judged insane: -..-...-. ... ..
The woman has been in the asylum
twice before, so it is said, but this was
prior to her marriage. Last summer
She went away from home and was
gone short time, returning herself.
She is under thirty years of age and
small and frail looking. how she
wandered about the country miles and
miles with the child without becoming
exhausted is mystery. When found
the child did not seem to be much the
worse for it's strange trip.

An Old Landmark Gone.

Last Tuesday forenoon the Galley
shed that for twenty-eight years has
stood at the head of First street. was
moved around the corner and put on
the north side of the starch factory.
The supports we're taken out from I'M
dee the heavy roof which had been
blocked up on two wagon trucks and
the heavy grey team of the Galley
Hardware Co. was hooked to the front
wagon, and the procession started.
The roof was balanced and blocked in
very ingenious manner and stood
the ride all right. Quite crowd COL
lected around the corner to watch the
passing of the old and familiar land
mark and it was all over in a very few
minutes. This old shed bore the same
relationship to First street as has
Trinity church to Wall street in New
York. The only people who find rest
around Trinity are the dead, however,
while the living found rest and recre-
alton as they loitered about the old
shed at the head of First street. Here
many weighty> questions of state and
local affairs have so often been dis
cussed, and here at eventide many a
prominent citizen found rest from the
cares that infest the day an sit and
watched the village go to sleep, while
he went to sleep himself. But Mr..
Galley does not intend that the old vii
lage guards shall be without place
for conversation and contemplation,
and he will put an awning along the
side of the store building and build an
inviting bench for the homeless.

unique political convention ever held
in Kansas is dated for September 10,
In Gray county. 1t will be the regu-

nomination of county officers. 1t will
be composed of just fifteen delegates.
Eight of these delegates can name
the entire ticket of twelve officials.
They could each take an Office for
himself and still have four offices over.
The spectacle of fifteen delegates
nominating twelve candidates is en-
