HEIR TO A LEGACY.

The many friends of Charles E.
Dickinson, manager Of the dry
goods and clothing firm of F. W.
Philbrick & Co.. will be pleased to
hear that Mr. Dickinson has fallen
heir to legacy, which foots up to
many thousands Of dollars, the ex-
act amount of which THE GAZETTE
has been requested not to state
1t will be remembered that dur
ing last winter it was announced in
these columns that an uncle of Mr..
Dickinson, residing in Michigan,
had passed away quite suddenly
and that Mr.. Dickinson had left to
attend the funeral. Mr.. Dickinson
was one of the nearest heirs of the
deceased uncle, and when the prop
erty was offered for probate it was
ascertained that Mr.. Dickinson
would be we'll provided for. At
first the amount which Mr.. Dick
inson supposed he would receive
was just one fifth of what be really
will receive, and when it is stated
that the supposed amount was in
the five figures it will be seen that
the real amount is large one. Mr..
Dickinson received ali of the docu-
ments which makes his title certain,
last week, and while he has endeav-
ored to keep the matter quiet it has
leaked out and he has since been
receiving the congratulations of his
friends.

A GOOD CIRCUS.
Sells & Downs Put Up a Fine Circus a1ll
Exhibition in this City.

| The Sells & Downs circus showed
here last Monday, and without
| doubt it is one of the finest ever
put up under a tent in Redwood
Fails. It abounds in daring feats
in bareback riding, slack wire acts,
trapeze performances, comedy Jug
CLING, contortionist acts, sensation
al tumbling. and new and intensely
funny comedy acts: and the large
audience which assembled under
the big spread of canvass both after
noon and evening were not only de-
lighted with the performances but
stated that they never enjoyed such
vein of humor as they enjoyed at
this circus.
The bareback riding of Miss Edna
and of Orrin Davenport met with a
particularly hearty reception. The
former. Notwithstanding her sprain-
ed ankle, and after two or three at
tempts. continued her record as one
of the few. if not the only lady SOM
ersault bareback rider in the world.
while young Davenport repeatedly
turned somersaults, and along with
Miss Edna performed many sensa-
tional feats on top Of moving horses.
Certain it is that the equal of those
two riders is very seldom seen at
"a circus.
Another thrilling feature of the
circus was the work of the Nelson
Bros. on the trapeze in mid-air. AD
eight or nine year old boy was
thrown back wards and forwards
from trapeze to trapeze with as
much ease and safety as if the two
brothers were handling a ball
Their other work on the trapeze
was quite in harmony with this SEN
sational performance
The bicycle xhibition, the knock
about acts, and the tumbling and
spring acts, the comedy trick cottage
acts, and many other acts, some OF
which were entirely new under the
circus tent, were all of the best and
and clearly proved that Sells &
Downs advertised nothing but what
they exhibit.
The cycle whirl by the Schaars
is certainly phenomenal, thrilling
and must be regarded as the great
est bicycle act yet produced.
In the menagerie there was a
good exhibition, and one or two an
imals entirely new here were on ex
hibition. The elephant showed ex-
cellent training, and aside he was a
monster of his class.

S45 PER ACRE.
Senator SOmerville Sells His Land to Den.
nistOun Brothers.

The half section OF land located in
Paxton township and owned by
Senator George W. Somerville of
Sleepy Eye was sold by Mr.. Somer-
Vile one day last week to Malcolm
aud Alex. NJ Dennlstoun of that
township, the consideration being
nearly $40 per acre.
This land was originally a portion
of the large farm of 0. B. Turrell
During the Citizens Bank insol-
vency this tract, together with the
half section tract east of the road,
was sold to the late DR. ". D.
Finn and Mr.. Somerville in con-
junction. the sale being made after
bids had been advertised for 1t is
understood that the two gentlemen
paid about s15 per acre for the
tract.
After DR.. Finn passed away Sen
ator Somerville proposed division
of the tract, and after he proposed a
basis of division, give or take, Mrs
Finn accepted the proposition and
took the half section east of the
road, on which there were no i'm
provements. Mr.. Somerviile, there
fore, was left the old home tract,
and this is the piece which he has
sold to the Dennistoun brothers.

A KICK FROM NEW AVON.

To THE EDITOR: | note in the last
issue Of your contemporary that the
present incumbent of the county
treasurer S office, W. P. Tenney,
announces his retirement and takes
decided stand for his deputy, W.
B. King
The writer is friend of both Mr.
Tenney and Mr.. King, but must
state that Mr.. Tenney is decidedly
unfair in taking position in which
he attempts to dictate the nomina-
tion OF MIR King Mr. Tenney has
been honored bv two nominations
and elections at the hands of the Re-
publican party of Redwood county,
and it would seem that in Justice to
his Republican brethren. when be
announced his retirement, be should
have also announced that it was a
duty that he owed the party and
the several candidates to stand en-
tirely aloof from the fight for the
position which be now holds.
There is fairness in politics, as
we'll as in religion, and if Mr.. Ten
ney desires to be fair be would not
attempt to interfere in behalf of an
excellent man. whose hrotheris now
postmaster at Redwood Falls.

SELLS-DOWNS' DAN CUPID.
Throws His Arrows and Mr.. HarWick and
Miss Hunt are United.

The Sells-Downs circus carries a
Dan Cupid with it. The little fel-
low is not in a cage; neither is he
on the hotel list of the big circus,
but he hovers around the players
ladies and gentlemen-and occa-
sionally sends his shafts deep into
their hearts.
The Dan Cupid Of the Sells Downs
circus will long be remembered in
Redwood Falls, for here the little
fellow brought to a climax love
affair of many months standing, and
after a great amount of billing and
cooing on the part OF the two doves
he witnessed their unity in the
holy bonds of wedlock in the parlors
of Hotel Francois last Sunday even
ing. Messrs- Sells and Downs both
admitted that it was a happy cul-
mination of Dan S work, and when
the final words were spoken the two
big circus owners. accompanied by
their amiable press impressario,
COL C. H. Thompson. stepped for
ward and solemnly announced
"Bless YOU, my children, bless
you.
The principals Of the affair we're
Major R. E. Harwick, connected
with the privileges of the circus:
and son of Hon. NJ. B. Harwick OF
Northampton county, Pa, and Miss
Bertha Hunt. daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. G. W. Hunt of North Branch,
Minn.
The couple have known each
other for many years: and while
they carried on correspondence at
random, and Dan Cupid had seen to
it that the proper endearing words
had been inserted in the CORE
spondence on either side, the bride
had no idea that the climax was so
near at hand. She has just finished
a term of school near North Branch.
Last Thursday Mr.. Harwick wired
Miss Hunt to meet him in Redwood
Falls She arrived here Friday
evening. Major Harwick told her
that he had been pierced by
Cupid and Miss Hunt confessed hav-
ing experienced similar feeling.
A marriage was agreed to at once,
and was set for the parlors of the
hotel Sunday evening, the Witness
es present to be the proprletors aud
principals of the big circus.
At the appointed hour Rev. E. A.
Orr of the Christian church made
his appearance, and Richard B.
Smith, the ticket seller and bally-
hoo man of the circus, and Miss
Broman, who is the Lady Genita of
the big show, appeared as witness
es. The bride was attired in
handsome gown of black silk, with
chiffon trimmings. In a few mo-
ments the minister pronounced the
words that made the couple man
and wife, and the Sells-Downs Dan
Cupid merrily chalked up another
victory
Many congratulations from the
principals and attaches of the cir
Gus were showered upon the couple
Coils. Sells, Downs and Thompson
all declared that it was the hap
piest Sunday they had spent for
many day.
Mr. and Mrs. Harwick will con-
tinue to travel with the circus, and
Mrs. Harwick will undoubtedly be
pointed to as the first bride made
by the Sells-Downs Dan Cupid. She
is a charming girl and will undoubt-
edly be popular with the attaches.
