UNI, Sweden and Australia. These Will
contest in the preliminary tourna-
ment, and the winner Of this prelimt-
nary series will meet the English
holders of the trophy. From develop
ments iii this country and abroad, it
is evident that the interest in the in
ternational competitions of this year
s~urnasses that of last season. Last
year Australia, Belgium, Germany,
France and Sweden were represented
in the tournament. While they did
not carry off the trophy, still il shows
what Widespread enthusiasm The
game of tennis is awakening. The
Davis trophy is now held by the Do
herty brothers of England, but will
return again to America il the COM
bined efforts of the star players OF this
country can accomplish their desire.
This is the first year the cup has not
been held by an American team.
With all the competitors, the chances
of the American teams again regain
ing the cup are brighter than before.
Comparatively speaking, lawn tennis
is a new sport. The first appearance
of the game in any degree of perfec-

The name "%whiskers' is applied 10
feathery crystals which gather upon
the outside of the wrapping of frozen
dynamite. The "whiskers" are more

case is on record where sticks of dyna-

and the can of hot water in which il
was done left in the blacksmith shor
without being emptied of the residual
scum of grease and whiskers. This

off the whiskers by conclusion. The

Gudmund Skartvedt was up at
Northfield, Minnesota, last week,
visiting his daughter, Miss Lajla, and
Peter, who is teaching school at
Blooming Prairie, came down to
Mortified for a brief visit with his
father. Peter likes teaching and is
getting along nicely with his work.
Miss Skartvedt has charge of the
music department in St. Olaf college
and is giving splendid satisfaction.
In discussing good roads the other
day with Messrs. Cuppett, Wendt,
Straw and Collins, we learned that the
dian Asylum is in a horrible condi-
ton, one of the worst in the county.
Why can't something be done to
make this road decent. There is
plenty Of gravel handy and the road
tax ought to be used for the benefit
of the people along that road. Good
roads are a blessing. A bad road is
anything you r amind to %callit, pro-
vided no one is near when you express
an honest opinion.
Many people who have driven over
that bit of good road north of town
SO nicely smoothed by Gudmund
~Skartyedt's road machine, are loud in
praise of the enterprise and progress
sive spirit that prompted the work.
If the farmers along that line from
Paul Bankson's to town would put in
two or three hours each, once in a
while, they might have a road fit to
trot over all the way. We presume
Mr.. Skartvedt would be willing to
loan his machine, or the township
could make one, and the work OF
keeping the road smooth in front OF
each farm would take but little time.
Surely every farmer could afford to
keep the road smooth in front of his
own farm for his own convenience,
and by uniting the work three OF
four miles a day could be fixed. 1t
would be a good idea if the supervis-
ors looked into this matter.
Taken as directed, it becomes the
~greatesJ curative agent for the relief
of suffering humanity ever devised.
