Here is another cyclone story. the
truth Of which We don't care to vouch
for. Down at Waconia a man rushed
into saloon and yelling: Fritz, q
cyclone is. coming and it Ia tearing
every building in town down. Quick,
come in the cellar. Fritz grabbed
screWdriver and went to work taking
off the door of the Ice box, while all
his customers rushed to the cellar.
Finally Fritz came banging down the
cellar stairs with the door of the Ice
box under his arm. :Poys,' he said.
don't let dot door get vet. IT. my
account book. The cellar was filed
with water before they were in there
ten minutes, and: many bad account
was wiped off from Fritz's slate
which otherwise probably never would
have been wiped of.-Lester Prairie

TENTED ALONE.
AIRvlEW EAMsTERS HAD Ex-
PERlENcEs OF MORE THAN
PASSING INTEREST.

Yesterday morning three loaded
teams from Fairview driven by Lew
Fluharty, his son, and a young man
whose name was not learned, came to
this. city and the two F'luhartys lost
no time in getting a load in their
stomachs instead of their wagons.
The other driver, knowing that.they
had long trip ahead, persisted IN
keeping reasonably sober. in order to
conduct the others safely home When
all was. ready the older Fluharty told
the Others to precede him to the Cath
Ole cemetery, and wait his coming.
After waiting a long time. his son
started on home, while the driver Of.
the third team remained, knowing
that. Lew would never in the world
make the trip alone. He remained
patiently on the hill until long after
dark and then came back to town to
hunt the missing man Not being
able to find him, he started back to
his wagons, stating that he would I'M
hitch and tie the horses to the fence.
while he would roll up in the blankets
and sleep in the wagon AS Fluharty
was very drunk it is probable that his
friend slept on the hill all night
