the company in good shape for the
annual encampment at Lake City,

Some new towns that are to be
opened up on the extension of the Min
neapolls & st. Louis road in South

vestment of some money by people of
this city. There will be some of the

sized villages in a short time after

tiers from it and hurting them a great
distance. No other damage was done
except that some of the fuses of the
electric light connections were burned

/ The caucuses for the election of
delegates to the state republican con
4 vention are to be held on the I'd of
June at s O'Clock p. m. This is the
place where it is necessary for the peo-
pie to show their earnestness in politi-
cal affairs, and it is usually the place
that is neglected. The caucus is the
only place where the people have the
say. After the affairs Of the county
leave the caucus they are in the hands
of the delegates and the people have to
abide by the result. Ifyon have any
kick coming get busy on the evening
i of the I'd.
Friday afternoon the stock yards of
the Northwestern railroad caught fire,
it is thought from a spark out of a
locomotive, and came near being de-
stroyed. Only for the timely arrival
of the fire department vast amount
of damage would have followed. AS
it was the roof OF the yards burned
and the partitions in the lower end
were destroyed. None of the stock in
the pens suffered. A quantity of hay
about the place is supposed to have
4 furnished food for the sparks Of the
engine aud generated the fire. The de-
i partment is entitled to the thanks OF
i the railroad company for the good
work it did.
Three furnished rooms for rent at

/ By the first of June the sewer work
that has been in progress all winter
will have been completed. AS far as
1 it is able to be judged the work APP
1 pears to be first class and is of such a
nature as to last the city for all time
to come, unless the unexpected should
i happen and the city become many
times larger than it is. It was thought
when the old sewer was laid that it
would be sufficient for the city but time
soon showed that it was not large
.Ienough and the necessity ola complete
change was apparent. It looks now
as though the council had made ample
i preparation for the future as far as
the main sewer is concerned
