Hero from San Francisco.

Edgar Green, late of San Francisco,
CAL, is here for several weeks visit
with his mother, Mrs. G. A. Green
and other relatives in the county.
Mr.. Green, has not been home for
several years and the re union with
his relatives and friends is naturally
a most enjoyable one. He arrived
here from Seattle, WASH, where he
had been visiting with his brothers
since the destruction of San Francisco
by the recent earthquake and fire.
Mr.. Green was among the residents of
Frisco who went thru the trying ex-
periences during the calamity and has
a very interesting account of those
times. He was employed at the Cali
fornia Electrical Works when the city
was visited by the catastrophe and
was stopping at one of the hotels that
was destroyed. He was fortunate in
escaping without being injured, but
lost all of his belongings except what
he wore at the time. Having been in
the hospital service On the battleship
Oregon for several years beforeco coming
to Frisco he was a valuable assistant
at one of the hospitals in the afflicted
city and had an opportunity to witness
much of the suffering experienced
Immediately after the terrible yisita-
tion. Mr.. Green was among the young
men who enlisted in Uncle Sam 8
service during the Spanish-American
war and had been stationed in China
a great part of the time. Among the
property he lost in San Francisco
were q number of relics and curios
gathered during his stay in foreign
lands and which he priced very highly.
Mr.. Green intends to return to the
coast and will take his mother with
him to Seattle, where she will enjoy a
visit with her sons.

Wisconsin Attracts Attention.

One of the largest land deals of the
Northwest was recently consummated
at Cumberland, Wis. Over two million
acres of best cut over timber. land of
Northwestern Wisconsin has been
acquired by the American Coloniza-
tion co. and is now being placed on
the market for the first time.
The close proximity of this land to
the twin cities, Duluth aud Superior,
should attract attention as there is no
section of the United States which can
offer such profitable inducements to
the man of moderate means, as this
section of Wisconsin.
The country is we'll adapted for the
raising OF wheat, corn, oats and clover
and a paradise for the diversified
farmer. -
On account of the location of this
land a ready market is always found.
Note the offer made in the ADVERTISE
ment in this paper and write them for
particulars. u

Willmar friends have received an
nouncements of the marriage Of Miss
Julia A. Dalager, who for the past
two years was member of the faculty
of the city schools. to Mr.. Toilet
Solverud, of Hayfield, MINI. The
wedding occurred on Wednesday,
June 20, at the home of the BRIDES
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. H. s. Dalager,
near Glenwood. The bridal pair will
be at home at Kenmare, N. D., Sept.
l, where we understand the groom
will engage in the drug store business.
The bride has many friends in Will
mar who will extend to the newly
married pair best wishes for happiness.
The following account of the wedding
is taken from the GIenwood Herald:
One of the prettiest home weddings
that has taken place in this vicinity
for some time was that which occurred
Oh last Wednesday at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Hans Dalager in the
town of Chippewa Falls. The con-
tracing parties were their daughter,
Miss Julia Aleta, and Mr.. Toilet
Solverud of Hayfield, Dodge, county,
MINI.
Miss Dalager is so we'll and favor
ably known to the people of this COM
munity that very little need be said
concerning her. Exceptionally, in
telligent, highly accomplished, amiable
cheerful and companionable are her
characteristics and her friends are
limited only by the circle of her
acquaintanceship When only about
sixteen years old she began teaching
in the rural schools. She saved her
earnings and paid her own expenses
while taking a course at the St. Cloud
Normal from which institution she
graduated with signal honors. Since
her gradu alton she has been employed
as teacher in the high schools at
various places, having lately been
employed in the schools of the city of
Wiilmar.
The young man who has won her
heart and hand is also abundantly
supplied with educational attainments,
being graduate of St. Olafs College
at Northtield, and lately he completed
q course in the pharmacy department
of the Valparaiso, Ind, Normal.
At Kenmare, N. D., the newly
married couple will make their future
home, but will spend some time before
going there in visiting among the
relatives and friends of the groom in
the southern part of the state. That
health, prosperity and happiness may
offend them in their newly assumed
relation is the earnest hope of their
many friends.
