Springfield Advance: THE RED
WOOD GAZETTE last week was an all
home print with twenty-four pages.
Every page was well filled with
large Christmas announcements on
the part of the merchants, besides
containing an abundance of good
wholesome reading matter. 1t was
a mastery effort on the part of
the proprietors, Messrs. Aiken &
Schmahl.
At 2 o'clock p. m. Christmas day
at the home Of Mr.. Richard in the
north part of town, DIR. Givler pre-
formed the marriage ceremony
uniting Mr.. J. Richard and Miss
Jennie Pirkel. Only few intimate
friends were present but a Christ
mas dinner was served and the
occasion was one of more than usual
interest. Mr.. Richard is young
business man of our city and they
have the good wishes Of our citizens
for domestic happiness and business
prosperity. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Rich
ard came from Mankato about three
months ago.
Blue Earth Post: A plug tobacco
factory is to be started at the Still
water prison, with a capacity suffi-
cient to supply the wants of the
inmates, who use about seven
hundred pounds per month. Why
not start right? Put in machinery
ample to supply the plug tobacco
demand of the state. One of the
most souless monopolies Of the pres
ent day is the great tobacco trust
and if we used the Juicy plug" we
would chew convict plug rather than
the plug made by the robbers out
side the prison walls.
Archdeacon Appleby of Duluth,
quite well-known among the Epis-
copal people of this city, was in
Wadena recently, and the Pioneer
Journal says that he was on his way
from the White Earth reservation to
visit the Indians of Bear Island,
Leach Lake. They are a heather
nation but applied to the Episcopal
church some few weeks ago for
instruction in the Christian religion
and the archdeacon was nominated
by the Bishop to help them. He
seems very much encouraged by
their earnestness and believes that
the whole tribe will become Chris
tians in short time.
E. A. Lyman, Sr. blew into town
last Tuesday. afternoon, after having
spent the last several months at
various places in the Pacific coast
states. Mr.. Lyman makes his home
with hisgdaughter, Mrs. C. ]. Cook,
at South St. Paul, but ever since
September, he has been travelling in
the west, and during all that time
he has seen everything everywhere
that he has been. Where ever he
could join a rural free delivery
route agent on his daily trip he took
advantage of the ride and sight
seeing trip, and he can probably tell
more about the country through
which he--traversed than any other
person who claims to have visited in
that region. Mr.. Lyman is not par
ticularly. enthusiastic over the west,
insistinga that all portions of it have
their drawbacks the same as in this
region, and that when all is said, he
prefers the Minnesota summer and
fall to anything yet experienced. A
flight to the south in cold weather
adds much to his enjoyment of life.
Vendors of patent medicines, which
contain alcohol, must pay license
fee of S25 a year after Dec. LIST,
according to. an order just issued by
the federal revenue department.
Not only druggists will be affected
by this order, but all who sell patent
medicines, and druggists will suffer
least, for they, for the most part,
have already been supplied with the
necessarya authority. The burden
