The splendid month of June, rich
with leaf and blossom and balmy air,
is much favored season for the tying
of the strings which Cupid so artfully
twines around young hearts within his
spell, and SO on last Tuesday evening
one of the prettiest wedd ing events of
the season was celebrated at the home
OF the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
j. G. Wood, when Miss Edna Wood

No Sunday ExcursiOns

President A. J. Earling of the
G. M. & st. Paul R'y. company
has issued an order forbidding
Sunday excursions in the future.
It is said that president Earling
was moved to make this decision
by q spectacle in a South Dakota
town recently. Mr.. Earring was
observing the day quietly in his
private car. An excursion was
run to the city from Sioux City.
He was disturbed by drunken
shouts. Upon investigation, he
found that saloons and gam bling
houses were running wide open
and the excursionist were TAX
ing advantage of the opportunity
to indulge in a carousal. Re-
ports indicate that the situation
was similar in nearly all excur.
sion towns.
President Earling will be COM
mended by all right minded
people for his position on this
matter The Sunday excursion
is nearly always accompanied by
scenes of debauchery and drunk
ness, aud is promoter of vice.
The railroad company that fos-
ter these things is a breeder of
anarchy, and the Milwaukee is to
be commended if it has refused
to be a party to them.

There is one feature of the en-
campment celebration which could
have been dispensed with, with much
credit to the town as we'll as profit to
scores of the visitors, and that was
the gamblers and fakirs. There are
always plenty of men who think they
can beat these thieves at their own
game and they lose their money as
fast as they could hand it out. There
is no possible excuse for allowing
brace games of that sort to operate,
and the most of our citizens deeply
regret that it was done.
Albin Stoddard, who had been in
very poor health for some time past
was stricken with appoplexy Tuesday
and passed away Wednesday morning
at IL o'clock. The funeral was
held Sunday in the Williams schoo
house in Mazeppa Twp, and the in
terment will be made in the family
lot in the Mazeppa cemetery. Uncle
Stoddard was one of the earliest set
tiers in western Grant county, ant
was known and loved in wide circl'
of country for his kindly christian
virtues. Retiring from active worl
a few years ago he made Summit hi
home where the last days of his lit
were happily spent among old friend
and neighbors. Dying at ripe oil
age, he leaves q wife, five sons AM
three daughters, to mourn his los
and revere his memory.
