N. & St. L. Affords Good Service.

An interesting feature in connection
with the recent convention here is the
train service that was afforded by the
MINNEAPOLIS and st. Louis railway.
The excursion trains from the various
points brought in over 1000 visitors
and during the evening three special
excursions departed from this city
within five minutes of each other. One
bound for Winthrop and the west with
seven coaches attached left here at
s O'Clock, another at sos with thirteen
coaches to Minneapolis and the last
one at $40 for st. Paul with 10 coaches
making total of thirty coaches with
in fifteen minutes. Trainmaster M. j.
Gould accompanied them in order to
insure absolute safety. Very few if
any railroads handle their passengers
in manner to compare with the above

CARPENTERS RECEIVE INJURIES
ScaffOld Breaks Beneath Weight

While engaged in work on the roof
of the new barn on George Eckstein's

severest injuries, the former breaking
two ribs and the latter splitting the
flesh on his nose. Both men are
under the care of doctor and at the
present writing were recovering
rapidly.
Later it was discovered that the

weather many were prevented from 60
ing and the hostesses were compelled
to hastily arrange the large house for
the occasion. Therooms were prettily
decorated with roses, and after the
guests had assembled and participated
in numerous games, such as guessing
contests and cards, they were supplied
with individual lunch baskets decor
ated in colors corresponding with the
colors in which their table was
decorated.
This afforded any amount of amuse-
ments as the colors in many instances
bore great similarity which confused
the guests in seeking for their re-
spective tables and at times unexpect-

Cold Bold Strikes Barn.

During the severe electrical storm
that passed over this vicinity early
Thursday morning, cold bolt of
lightning struck the large barn of
Joseph Brandt, prominent farmer in
Lafayette township. Hearing the
crash as the bolt struck the roof of the
building, Mr.. Brandt ran with haste
to the barn and discovered that two
of his valuable horses had been killed
by the lightning besides damaging the
barn slightly The course of the cold
bolt was very peculiar. Coming
from a point in the roof diagonally
toward the team of horses, the bolt
passed between an adjoining stall OF
horses without injuring the animals in
the least then seemingly changing its
course and striking the unfortunate
horses. Mr.. Brandt estimates his loss
at about $3.50.

RISE OF JAPANESE NATION SURE
Rev. Geo. AIbrecht Speaks Of the
War in the East.

In place of the regular sermon at the
Congregations church Sunday even
ing, Rev. Geo. Albrecht, who was
supplying the pulpit, consented to tell
Of the war that is being waged in the
east and of the causes and results as
he was able to see them. He is but
recently from that country having
spent the past seventeen years as a
missionary in the Island of Japan.
He talked for nearly an hour of the
early history and superstitions that
were interviewer in the national char.
acter of the Japanese people and that
went to build up the nation as a unit
and make it the power it has so recent
ly shown itself to be.
The most striking point he brought
out in his discourse is the fact of the
lack of Notwithstanding teaching
that each is for each other and all are
for the welfare of the whole, the in
terest being communal This teaching
is interviewer into the entire fabric of
the national life and explains the
tenacity with which they appear to
cling to those things that appeal to
national pride. They are all the
children of the sun goddess and she is
the nation and when they fight for any
thing they fight for their religion, and
n alton fighting for it's religion is a
desperate and a dangerous foe.
The discourse was interesting from
beginning to end and was full of in:
formation and instruction and should
have had large hearing. Mr.. AL
brecht believes that Japan is destined
to become the teacher of China, as
| China was once the instructor o.
Japan.

CELEBRATION AT OLD FORT HILL
People Of Lake Hanska Ready to
Celebrate 9TH.

Hanska has one of the best and most
appropriate places for Fourth of
July celebration in the county and the
little village has made elaborate pre-
parations for. the observance of the
day at Fort Hill on the banks of the
beautiful lake that is situated about
three miles from the village.

technics that he will be able to fire at
the people there is to be all the other
demonstrations that go to make up a
first-class celebration.

on the pavilion and there will be no
lack of music during the entire day.
There are some gasoline launches on

There is no fort there but at one
time there was a stockade which was

ASSOCIATION PLANS FOR FAIR.
Agricultural Association Takes on
New Life.
Plan Three-Day's Show With At
tractive Features.
Sunday Will be Included in Days
to be Celebrated.

For some time the secretary and
president of the Brown County Agri-
cultural association have been en-
deavoring to get enough members
present at a meeting SO that business
could betransa acted and officers elected,
but it was not until Friday night, when
the stock holders had been informed
that there was a move on foot to dis
pose of the property. This had the
desired effect and the meeting resulted
in the election of Ferd. Crone, presi-
dent; j. Klossner, vice president;
Adolph Burmeister, secretary and F..
II. Behnke, treasurer.
Itwas decided that there would be a
fair and that an attempt would be made
to make itwhatitshould be. Mr.. Crone,
who has been one of the most active
members of the association and has
deprecated all the past attempts to
palm off pumpkin show for the real
thing, has decided that if he stays with
the association it must give the people
value received, and so has signifed
his intention to use his best efforts to
have a real fair this year.
The meeting was heartily in favor OF
continuing the association and making
at attempt to get some attractions here
that would pay the people to come and
see and it was left with the board OF
directors to manage the affairs. There
will be three days beginning on Fri
day and continuing over Sunday and
during the time there will be horse
races, if it is possible to so arrange
| it.
VIM. Pfaender, who has been secre-
tary for the two years resigned and his
place is filled by the election of Adolph
Burmeister and any information de.
sired by people who will want to take
part in the fair in any manner may be
secured from him.
There is no reason why the county
should not have a very fine fair this
year. There is every encouragement
for it, and the farmers and others
should figure on entering some of theil
products and keeping this in min6
should watch their fields with view
to securing the best they have and ex
hibiting it at the fair.
There is no doubt but that there viii
be a spirit in the enterprise this yea1
that has been lacking in many of the
more recent fairs. The grounds are
to be fixed up, the race track improved
and the whole thing put in excellen
shape. r
| Many cities in the state would b.
Iglad to have the grounds and the op
portunity that is offered to this place
to have fair and would fill the plac
every year and this city should b.
alive to the opportunity that is Offered
and not only help with their money
they always do that but arrange t,
attend and have their families attend
1t is one of the best of the many thing
that are presented for the instruction
and entertainment of the people ant
should be given the most possible en-
enlargement.

ONE SCORE and FIVE YEARS
Quarter Century Mark Established
by Springfield,
Celebration of Event Attracts Large
Number of People.
Sham Battle Results in Unfortu-
nate Injury to one Man.

Not even the rain that was pouring
down on the earth and all its inhabi-
tants Thursday morning was sufficient
to dampen the enthusiasm of the people
of the progressive village of Spring
field. It was the event of the 18th
anniversary of the adoption of the
charter that gave them them the dignity
of being called village, and they were
proud of it. ..
Springfield was born under the name
of-Burns, being named after one OF the
first settlers in that section Of the
county but when she was welded to her
charter she changed her name to
Springfield, more prepossessing
name and one that has many dupll-
Gates in the United States.
In 1872 M. II. Gamble put up the
first business house and was appointed
postmaster the following year and
held the Office successfully about as
long as he wanted to- The railroad
passing by his place gave opportunity
to establish village and the company
had the town of Burns surveyed and
for three years the mail that came to
that place came under that direction,
then came the change and J. S. Colony
was elected president Of the town
board, A. E. Aarnas and II. Warnke,
trustees; L. A. Larson, recorder; M.
Fl. Gamble, treas; G. Fl. Bamcord,
justice and Thos. Arnold, constable.
This was the circumstance that the
people of that city were called together
to celebrate and they showed that they
were as we'll able to do it as if they
had been twice twenty-five Or more
years old. For the event there was
an elaborate program Of music and
other attractions, principal of which
was the sham battle that was fought
by the two battalions of Co. A of this
city with the Springfield contingent.
The campaign was under the manage
ment of Capt. Pfaender and he manipu
lated his men well. There was but
one unfortunate accident, which was
the shooting of Private Fox. The
accidental discharge of the rifle Of one
of the attacking party struck him in
the eye and it is probable that he will
lose the sight of it.
There was a splendid game of ball
between Lamberton and Springfield the
former winning in d score of to in
their favor. The Second Regiment
band and the Springfield band kept
the air surcharged with music during
entire day and there were vendors of
badges and buttons with other numer-
Gus articles to make the place appear
to have part of the state fair on it's
hands.
A large number Of people from this
place were present but returned on the
evening train SO that the evening
entertainment was missed but if it was
as good as that of the afternoon the
day closed upon very successful
event-one worthy of the enterprise of
the village.

News comes from Johannes burg that the largest diamond ever found has been taken out of the Premier mine. 1t weighs 3,032 carats in the rough. A few years ago large black dia- mond was found in Brazil, which was somewhat larger. This gem was of no ornamental use, how ever, and was eventually cut up and used in making diamond drills. Except for this, the gem just found is three times larger than any hitherto discovered. The stone weighs about a pound and a half. In cutting it from forty to sixty percent will be lost.

Arizona expended on her pub- lie school system during the year 1904 the sum of $457, 7,529.97. pretty near half a million dollars. Can any state in the Union show a better record than that? And this with less than 100000 pop ulation, including Indians not taxed. The large sums paid by the people for the education of the children of Arizona is a most eloquent tribute to our people and their earnestneSS in the buSi- ness of education. Arizona Star.
