Vincent Dombovy, the blacksmith,
is preparing to build fine new shop.
The location is just east of the site of
the old furniture factory that burned
some years ago. The structure will
be "a X 40 and will be fitted with the
latest improvements. Mr.. Dombovy
will begin work on the building as
soon as the frost is out of the ground.
He has been in Sauk Centre about a
year and has made good in every way.
In the beginning God created the
heavens and the earth, then the edi-
tor, then the liberal advertiser-which
was all good. The next day it showed
and he created the man who does not
believe in advertising; another who
does not take his home paper-and
then he rested. And then the devil
got into the moulding room and Gre
ated the man who takes the paper for
several years and fails to pay for it.
After he had completed that sorry Job,
and having few Jumps left, he Gre
ated the excuse of man who settles
his subscription by informing the post
master to mark his paper refused. !"

buried in Oakland cemetery, St. Paul.
Speaking of the death the Merriam
Park papers says, among other things:
Mrs. Ralph Baldwin was born in
Blanchard, Iowa, but removed at an
early age with her parents to Sauk
Centre, where her life was spent pre-
vious to coming to Merriam Park about
ten years ago. Her sweet disposition
had won for her many warm friends
who will sincerely sympathize with
the husband and parents in the loss
of dear wife and daughter"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is infiamed
ing, and when 1t is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result. and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever:
nine cases out OF ten are caused by Catarrh,
which Is nothing but an infamed condition OF
thf mucous surface.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case or Deafness lcaused by catarrh) that cam

Saturday afternoon dog belonging
to Albert Bucher and bull dog own
ed by j. J. Costello got into fight in
front of Bucher's butcher shop. A
crowd soon gathered. Bucher took a
hand and stabbed the bull dog and
then "sicked' his dog on to the
wounded animal. Finally the two
dogs were separated and the wounded
bull dog staggered across the street,
from one side of the walk to the 9TH
er, trail of blood marking his pro-
gress. When in front of the postoffice
the animal fell and lay for some time
in a pool of blood. Later it's owner
took it home. 1t will probably recov-
er. John Friedman was telling Chief
Costello about the affair when Bucher
stepped up and dealt him a blow in
the back of the neck. The chief then
arrested Bucher and took him to the
municipal court where he was fined
for assault on Friedman, the amount
being S4.35 including costs. Tuesday
morning Bucher was again arraigned
before Judge Morse, the charge being
cruelty to animals, the state being the
prosecutor. Bucher pleaded guilty
and was fined $500 which he paid.
Judge Morse. warned him that if he
was arrested again on similar charge
he would be sent to Jail, and gave him
some good advice. Bucher admitted
that he was in the. wrong and prom
ised to try to. avoid any such occur
rences in the future. The affair Gre
ated much excitement in town.
