CHART Err
MEMBER OF DAMON LODGE AND
OLD CITIZEN OF LARAMIE
DEAD IN WISCONSIN.
Telegram Received Bringing lnforma-
ton of the Demise Of William
Ounning at Waukesha, Wisconsin,,
on saturday-Mrs. Simpson Learns
Of Death Of Her Mother.

William Cunning, an old and highly
respected citizen of this city. died at
Waukesha. Wis, late Saturday after
noon, as was learned that afternoon
by a telegram received by Amos Tefft,
master of finance of Damon lodge No.
). No further particulars of the death
OF Mr.. Dunning or the date of his
burial were contained in the message.
MI. Dunning was a member Of Damon
lodge, one of the signers of the appli-
cation for a charter, in fact, and at the
time of his death was a member in
good standing. P. NJ. Fish, keeper of
records and seal Of the lodge at Wau-
kesha, signed the message informing
the local lodge of the demise of Mr..
Cunning.
William Dunning for a long number
of years was a resident of this city,
owning considerable property and be.
ing in the oil and dairy business here
for some time. He was of a bright,
sunshiDy disposition, and never failed
to have a crowd about him when he
was in the midst of his pranks. About

fractured some of his ribs. He and
his wife went to California, spending
the fall INT winter in that state. re.
turning to Laramie about two years
ago and going thence to New York
and from there to Wisconsin, in both
which places he had resided.
Mrs. Dunning is an honored member
of the Sixty club in this city, and on
a recent meeting of that organization
a letter from her was read detailing
some of the experiences of herself and
husband, and no doubt many of the
older subscribers of the paper have
preserved it in their scrap books.
1t is believed here that Mr.. Dunning
will be buried either at Waukesha or
the remains taken to the old home in
New York state. The Cummings have
no relatives here at present. and no
reason exists why the remains should
be brought to Laramie for interment.
However. nothing has been heard
from Mrs. Dunning on the subject.
Mrs. Chase and Prof. Leo Chase of
Rawlins are the only known relatives
in this part of the country.

Nic0llet County Fair.

The Nicollet County Agricultural
Society has chosen Sept. 6, 7 and s,
as the dates for it's fair of 1904. These
dates fall on Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday Of the week following
the State Fair. The officers are now
corresponding with the Fort Smelling
regimental bond, and hope to be able
to secure this attraction for the Coun-
ty Fair and Street Carnival again this
year. The officers are also figuring
on an electrical illumination of the
streets, with view of making the fair
of 1904, the biggest and the most at
tractive ever held in the city of ST.
Peter.
They have added to the usual liber-
al premiums, two sweepstakes-on of
which will be of especial interest to
the farmers of Nicollet and LIE Sueur
counties. The sweepstake is a 1875. 90
prize, given to the townships road
fund of either Nicollet or LIE Sueur
counties. that makes the largest ex-
hibit of live stock at the county fair.
All of this stock must be entered in
the regular classes and compete for
the regular premiums. So each farm
er will receive his usual premium, and
in addition his township will receive
1926 for their road and bridge fund.

Laying the Foundation.

G. w. Barnes and O. J. Duane of
this city left last Sunday for Spooner,
Wis. and from there will go to their
claims which have been located some
thirty miles from the above village.
1t is their intention at this time to
erect a dwelling and to start improve
ments on the property in compliance
with the homestead law. Barnes is to
act as chef for the party and Duane
will be master mechanic and superin-
tendent of construction. They will
employ only union labor and will
observe the 8-hour law. The main
purpose of their invasion into the
woods of Wisconsin will be to kill as
many mosquitoes as possible, live on
blue berries and fish, cultivate the ac-
quaintance of their possessions and a
few potatoes and see that no sooner
has jumped their claim while they were
absent making an honest living. They
have taken with them a good appetite,
a few dollars, pack of cards, clean
shirt each and a cob pipe, being in a
prohibition settlement they will have
to drink river water but they hope to
neutralize this by a liberal supply of
stomach bitters which they have taken
along to ward off an attack of malaria.
Their friends in this city expect them
to thoroughly equipped to discourse
the most successful manner of avoid
ing work on the farm

CROP CONDITIONS GOOD
Rain Has Not Destroyed Hopes of
Brown Co. Farmers.

This is the time of the year when the
crop estimator gets busy and there is
to be found in all the papers some es-
innate Of the crop of grain that is to
make or unmake this part of the coun-
try. At the present time the reports
have been very favorable, but the re-
cent rise in the price of wheat to the
dollar mark indicates that the rains
that have fallen continuously for the
F asst week have had depressing effect
on the shorts and there is fear that
the crops will be injured.
The fields of grain in this county,
with the exception of low land, are
looking excellent, in fact it would be
hard to find a section of the country
where they are better, but this does
not indicate that they will continue
the same. There has been too much
rain and the ground is saturated be-
You'd the possibility of holding more.
Hot weather may generate rust and
destroy the hopes of good crop in a
short time, but if the conditions con-
tinue as favorable as they are at this
time there is every reason to believe
that this county will harvest a large
wheat crop.
The wheather has not been very IA
vorable to corn. Rain has prevented
the farmers from getting into the fields
to cultivate it and the weeds have
made great head way while the corn,
retarded by the cool weather has adj
vanced but little, still there is time for
it to gather itself and make up for the
cool days. Iowa corn looks but little
better. Fields as far south as Ft.
Dodge are but little better than those
around this city and there is the same
complaint of too much water. A face
tious paper remarks that the farmers
of Kansas are advertising for divers
to harvest their grain, so it will be
seen that the people of Minnesota are
not in the worst condition.

OPENING ATTRACTS MANY SET COUNTY FAIR DATES
Kosebud Indian Reservation Scene of
Unusual Activity.

lhe eyes of spectators in Land are
turned at this time to the advantages
oHered by the opening of the Rosebud
Indian reservation. 1t is, no doubt,
Inc best land that has been thrown
open for settlement for many wears
and the fact has drawn to it thousands
OF men and women who are anxious to
secure a homestead. 1t is estimated
tnat ~, 1000 people will register for
chance to locate a claim, and that out
OF the $500 farms that will be open for
homesteading all but six hundred of
them are worth not less than $1,000 as
they stand and some of them are worth
several times that amount, depending
on their location in relation to the
cities that are adjacent to the reser-
walton.
Ii is the purpose of the government
to give these farms to those who will
make them their home, and to none
other. The terms as specified in the
proclamation, require a payment of
81 an acre when the claim is located
and payment every year until the
sum of 81 an acre is paid. The chance
to locate claim cannot be sold or
transferred in any way and the re-
strictions are such that it is practically
impossible for the man who locates to
hold his land except by actual occu-
patton. 1t is a wise provision for the
land is good farming land, wellwatered
and productive, and it is right that it
should go to those who will make the
best use of it.
A number of people from this coun-
ty will register, but because of the
large number who will have chance
at the drawing, if there is no in
tention of holding the property after
it is located, they will be money ahead
if they do not register, for the proper
ty will be closely watched and the
claim confscated on the least provo
cation. In the end the land is not
what would be called cheap even at
the price the government is holding it.

NEARY GETS HIS REWARD
Friends of the Federation President
Remember Him.

While the Federation of Labor was
in session in this city during the early
part of June Kangaroo court was
held and from the fines it was expected
present would be bought for the
retiring president. A recent issue of
the Minneapolis Journal gives the
result of the work of the committee
which is as follows:
M. E. Neary, ex-president of the
Minnesota State Federation of Labor,
was this week the recipient of hand
some diamond-studded locket and
gold chain, the gift of host of friends
and admirers among the delegates to
the recent convention at New Ulm.
The money to purchase the gift was
collected during the convention, and a
committee consisting of Otto Sturms
Of Duluth, J. E. Wilson Of st. Paul,
John 0. Watson and George Harvey
OF Minneapolis, appointed to look
after the selection and presentation of
the same.
The locket bears the following in
scription: Presented to M. E. Neary

September 18th to 18th Are Dates
Chosen.
Association Will Provide Superior
Attractions.
Early Date Will Assure Success of
Association Plans.

The Directors of the Brown County
Agricultural Association held a meet
ing Monday night and determined
upon Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
Sept. 18th, 10th and 18th as the dates
for holding the regular annual agri-
cultural exhibit of the association.
These dates were selected for two
reasons but principally to avoid con-
fiicting with the meeting of the Roman
Catholic Aid Society which is to meet
in this city on the 18th of Sept.
In the preparation of the attractions
and the exhibits of the fair this year
the secretary, VIM. Pfaender, Jr., is
attempting to give the people of the
county and all others who may attend,
a fair of more than usual import
ance. The association is anxious to
have the fair placed upon a better
footing than it has been and for that
reason an attempt will be made to Sc
cure attractions that will be drawing
cards and the premium list will be so
liberal that the farmers and others
will feel interested in placing their ex-
hibits before the people.
Unless the plans are changed the
exhibits will be shown at the fair
grounds and all the attractions will
be there, and it is expected, with the
good crops that are promised at this
time, the farmers will have something
in the line of grains, vegetables and
fruits that will be worth seeing. Last
year, because of the partial destruction
of the property on the grounds OF the
association the fair had to be held at
the opera house in this city, but not
withstanding this there was All exhib-
it that any county could be proud of.
Those who know anything of the
management of the fair know that it is
thankless Job and that it is an end
less amount of work to arrange all the
detail, and we suggest that to help the
association out, if there is any one
who has some thing to offer that will
be of interest to the public that they
let the secretary know in time SO that
he may be able to secure it. A little
public interest in the fair would give
Brown county one of the best attrac-
tons in the state, and would be pleas
ing to the secretary as we'll as to all

HEADQUART ERS At ST. CLOUD
Important Meeting of Minnesota
Central Held.
Promoters Say All that is Needed
is to Have People Buy.
Road to be Completed to Litchfield
Before Snow Flies.

From all indications the promoters
of the Minnesota Central railway are
getting down to business and attempt
ing to push matters in the direction of
the construction of the road with the
end in view of having the line finished
as far as Litchfeld from st. Cloud by
fall. This would indicate that the
construction of the road will begin at
the north and that ST. Cloud and not
Mankato will be headquarters after
the road is completed.
An important meeting was held in
St. Cloud last Friday at which time
the matter was fully discussed. Mr..
Yarnall explained that they would be
enabled to secure the building of the
road, provided people along the line
would exhibit their faith in the pro-
ject by advancing money to an average
OF about $4,000 per mile, for which
they would receive certificates. They
say that this amount pledged, they
could contract with an eastern COM
pany which is engaged in the building
of railroads and which would build
the road and equip its terminals. This
done, bonds could be issued upon the
road and sold and the holders of
certificates would be reimbursed for
the advances made
|, 1t was brought out at the meeting
that the projectors of the road were
desirious of beginning operations this
fall and completing the line as far as
Litchfield. It was suggested that St.
Cloud be made the headquarters for
| the line. It is estimated that the cost
of building the line as far as Litchfeld
would be $780, 900. In it's write-up OF
the meeting the st. Cloud Journal
Press says:
That the citizens of ST. Cloud almost
unanimously want north and south
line which by connection at it's south
ern terminus will give St. Cloud an6
this region direct outlet to Chicago
and the east other than by way of the
twin cities and the merger line.
| That there is a good possibility O
the required amount of bonds beins
taken by the st. Cloud people, on tn.
basis of the completion of the line tt
M ankato and it's definite connection
with one of the trunk lines to the east
| That there is far less chance of thes,
bonds being taken on the proposition
of payment when the construction
reaches Litchfeld.
That knowledge of definite alliance
| between the Minnesota Central ant

preferably the Illinois Central woult
increase the favor in which the genera
proposition is held, and improve the
chances of the required amount O

There is a fear that totally indie
pendent line, especially if it stopped

quate guarantee of its immediate con
tinuation to Mankato. night eventually
be gobbled up by the merger lines ant
thus fail to fulfill he purpose O
affording a competing line and al
outlet independent of the merger lines
All these points, however, are such
as no doubt can be adjusted to the
mutual satisfaction of all parties con
cerned, and the undercurrent of faith
in and favor toward the proposed line
is very strong.
