The canning factory of Arlington
is ready for business and will com
: mence canning corn the latter par
of July.
The new mill in Sacred Hear
will commence operations some time
!. in July. The machinery is nearly
all in place. The proprietor pro
poses lighting Sacred Heart by the
electric system and the council is
considering the proposition.
| The only Touring mill in Hender-
son was recently destroyed by fire,
the origin of which is unknown.
Mrs. A. G. Heinrichs, wife of the
well-known Minneapolis brewer,
was the owner of the property.
which was fully covered by insur-
ance.
The Vesta telephone exchange
has been connected with the long
distance lines of the Minnesota Gen.
trail Telephone Co., and the people
of that town can now talk north or
south or east or west. The talk is
not so cheap as it might be, how
ever. The price paid for it will
buy whisky.
Fred Ellington of Morgan has
purchased half interest in the
pharmacy of his brother, D. E.
Ellington of Wabasso, the partner
ship to commence on July 1st. The
firm will be known as Ellington
Bros. Fred has disposed of his
Morgan property to Emil Fenske,

Hully jiggersl Who'd thought
that Jim Larson of Walnut Grove
and Wabasso could play ball? And
yet the Tribune of the former city
remarks that one day last week the
fat team and the second team went
oat on the diamond for contest.
Jim Larson decorated the center
and pitched the best game of ball he
has pitched for 20 years, with the
result that the fat men won by a
score of 20 to 5. We still have our
doubts on the pitching. Jim must
have paid the second miners to make
a bluff and miss the balls so that he
could be credited with strike-outs
and the winning of the game.
Frank and Joe Mathiowitz of Eden
township, Brown county, have been
held to the grand jury OF that coun-
ty on the charge of assault upon
Herman Dittbenner, a neighbor.
The Morgan Messenger states that
the queer feature about the case is
that Joe Mathiowitz is carrying one
OF his arms in sling, it having
been broken while the scrap was
going on. How the accident &C.
Cured can not be stated positively,
but it was thought that be was hit
by his brother in his endeavor to
get at Dittbenner. How Mr.. Dit
benner escaped being killed is al
most miracle, as the weapon used
to strike the blow was a gas pipe
ABOUT three feet long and weighing
about four pounds.
The Granite Journal states that a
young man named Carlson, resid-
ing at minnesota Falls, while stand
ing on the new dam under course
of erection at that point. lost his
hat, and in STOPPING to pick it up
he lost his balance and fell head
first into the water directly above
the opening of two small arches
erected at that particular point.
Carlson disappeared from sight.
but those who stood there turned
an instant later and looked at the
water below the dam only to see the
young man on the madly rushing
waters, and being thrown about
as though he were a straw
Farther down the stream, where
the water ceases some of it's
fury, the young man was able to
control himself and reached the
bank in safety. He was shaking as
though he had the ague, and it was
not from cold water, but simply
with fright. The Journal SAYS that
his trip was one THAT not even a
