REVILLO
Item, July 90
w. 0. StOrlie, the pioneer mer
chant of Revillo, has sold his big
stock of general rchandise to T.. Fl.
Peever, one of the leading business
men of Sisseton, and large force of
clerks has been at work during the
week taking an invoice of the goods.
Mr.. Storlie began business here in the
year 1884, selling goods out of a box
car while building was being gotten
ready for occupancy by him, and from
that time to this he has been in the
business steadily, with the exception
of the years from "a to '97. Two
years ago he put up his present large
store, and it was hoped that he would
occupy it for as long a time as he
might care to stay in active business.
But on account of other varied in er-
ests requiring considerable of his time
away from here he concluded that it
would be best to sell out. By the sale
RevillO loses one of her most stable
and enterprising business men, which
fact every one realizes and very much
regrets. Mr.. Peever will ship the
stock of goods to SissetOn as soon as
the inventory is completed. AS to
| who the occupants of the building will
be after its vacation by Mr.. Storlie
we are unable to state at the present
| time.
| Rural Route Inspector Fl. Harland
was here the first half of the week
looking over the ground in prepara-
ton for the establishing of rural
free delivery route out from Revillo.
He spent parts of three days with Post
master Haarstad collecting memor-
anda with regard to the roads and the
distribution Of the population west
and southwest of town. Inspector
Harland will put in about two weeks
more in Grant county before making
his report to the post Office depart
ment, and it should not be great
while after that before the serviceis es-
tablished here.
At about $50 o'clock Tuesday morn
| ing a fire was discovered in Dan
| O'Leary's residence in Albee, The
cry of fire was promptly responded to
by nearly the entire population of the
town, and by the good use of fire ex-
tinguishers and water the blaze was
finally overcome. Mr.. O'Leary says
the loss will probably amount to
about $4,000 fully covered by insur
ance.

A party who is much interest

1.-THE trees, said he, "need spe.
cial atten ton just now. Some of
them are terribly crooked and a
little attentionnow will straighten
them up and add that much to
the beauty of the place.
Much interest is being mani
tested in project to better pic.
mic facilities at the dam. Quite q
number of picnic parties have
been out to this place lately and
all declare that a few dollars in
vested in boats, and clearing up
rubbish, also the addition of
few benches and rough tables,
would make the place an ideal
one.
The dam is becoming more
popular every day as place to
go and spend few pleasant
hours. A number Of Milbank
young ladies, the Misses, Kate
Thorndyke, Minnie Morley Laura
Anderson, May Elliot, Alma Hou-
gan and Adele Foss made up q
merry party who went out to
this place Monday evening, TAX
ing refreshments with them.
They are not at all loathe to say
that while the dam is not as
widely known as other resorts,
they had very fine time. And
still some people say there is
nothing in name.
