says that a daughter was born in his
family on the End of December. Mr..
Upton was editor of the Hanska Herald
for sometime, selling the same to Mr.
Haenze, and was also pastor of the
Baptist church at Sleepy Eye at one
time.
A new Office has been created in the
militia of the state, that of brigade
surgeon, and DR.. Bayley of Sleepy
Eye has been certified to this position,
rising from the rank of captain to that
of major. He has been looking for
the promotion for sometime and now
is able to put on a new uniform and
hobnob with the best of them.
The young people of the city have
not let the past good weather go to
waste, for the snow that covers the
ground, especially in the city has af-
forded an excellent opportunity for
sleigking and there has not been an
evening the past week when one or
more parties have not made the even
ing noticeable by their gaiety.
County Treasurer John Schneider
has decided that he will visit the vari-
Gus places where he has been in the
habit of collecting taxes and will re-
ceipt for the same at these places. He
will have to pay for this service out
of his own pocket as the public ex-
| aminer has ruled that the county
should not pay the expenses of col
lector of it's revenue.
A resident of this city who attended
the play Sunday evening was heard to
say that when the "Texas Steer" was
written it might have been thought to
| be overdrawn and a sort OF humor, but
at this time it was true to life and the
conditions as they exist in official cir
Giles and much of the comedy is lost in
the realization of an unfortunate con-
dition.
After having passed more than forty
years of their lives together as man
and wife, a divorce was granted to
Mrs. Peter j. CHASER from Peter J.
CHASER, both of Ft. Ridgely. The
woman in the case is past her 73d
year and her husband is nearly II.
The allegations of the woman are cruel
and inhuman treatment, which has benn
continued for a number of years.
Awards we're made of the prizes dis
tributed for the nearest correct guess
| on the number of beans contained in a
jar in the window of the furniture store
of Frank Kretsch. There were 1904
beans in the jar and Conrad Alex was
closest to it, his guess being 3065. He
was presented with an iron bed stead.
The second prize, an oak rocker went
| to J. A. Ochs.
The National cash register expert
who has been in the city for the past
week has succeeded in installing six
or seven systems in as many different
stores in the city. The register system
as provided by the National people is
something wonderful and comes as near
furnishing perfect control of business
as anything possibly can. The expert
who was in the city seems to have his
story always at his tongues end.
Lafayette is to be invaded by the J.
L. D. band and the acrobatic perform
ers, Otto and Frank The band will
furnish music between the stunts Of the
acrobats and will parade through the
principal streets of the city before the
performance. The residents of the vii
lage have not been apprised of what is
in store for them, but will be treated
to something that will be worth their
time and money.
Some people are of the opinion that
there is very little wood to be cut in
the vicinity of this city, but if the
amount Of green cord wood that is
brought into the city is any Indication
there is still a good supply somewhere
in the neighborhood of this place. II
seems that the shedding and the good
weather for cutting has opened up the
market and the supply is equal to the
demand.
Last Wednesday evening a number
of the friends of Mrs. Keiner surprised
her at her home and presented her with
a set of silver teaspoons. The party
was a sort of farewell reception as
| Mrs. Keiner left the following morning
for Kansas where she will join her
daughter and make her home there.
She was an active member of the ST.
Elizabeth society and will be missed
by all the members as we'll as large
circle of friends in the city.
August Windhorn may be candi-
date for the office of county treasurer
OF this county, at least he will try for
the nomination on the republican
ticket, if rumors to that effect are any
indication. When seen by reporter
