Personal Mention and News Notes
From the AGENCY"

s"S S'SS'SJ'
A. H. Turrittin, whose bank at Rice
was robbed the other night, was princi-
pal of the st. Clair school for a couple
of years. Many friends of his in this
neighborhood are sympathizing with him
in his loss.
Rev. Father Sherlock visited his old
friend, Father Madden, at Fairmont this
week, returning to ST. Clair Friday.
Mrs. Scott and daughter, Edith, who
have been visiting Mrs. Street and fam
lily during the past two weeks, returned
to RUTLAND, Iowa, Friday morning.
John Linthrop has moved his house
hold goods into the Hokemeyer house.
His wife will soon arrive to take poses
sion of her new establishment
Mr.. and Mrs. John Eberhardt of Ches-
ter, Mont, were guests of the latter's
sister, Mrs. Asa Andrews over Sunday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Eberhardt were on their
way home from visit to the Worlds
Fair. Mrs. Eberhart used to live here
with her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. James
Wheeler, who now resides at Billings,
Mont, while her husbands people were
originally of Rapidan. So there is much
to bring both to Blue Earth county,
where there is great deal to interest
them.
Mrs. Mary Axtelle of Eagle Lake and
Linden Axtelle are the guests of Mr.. and
Mrs. Aymer Axtelle this week.
Robert AXtelle has gone to Foley,
where he will work with his brother,
Richard, in the woods during the coming
winter.

district, 3 mills for the county reve-
nue., l.23 for the state school tax, l.5 for
the state taxes aside from schools, i
for general school, for road and bridge
and 81 for poor.
The greater part of the increase is due
to the larger levy made by the city
council. The city taxes amount to l6.S
mills as compared with 1875 mills the
previous year. This increase in the rate
for the city is due to the fact that the
council levied 100000 of taxes for the
coming year, so as to have money to pay
the city's share of the expense of paving
streets. The amount levied for the pres
ent year was $4,000.
The levy made by the county for the
coming year was $4,000 as compared
with $4,000 for the present year.
