A party of five, three women and
two men, arrived here from Norway
Sunday evening and remained over
night, going on to Clark county Mon

They were about as tired and home
sick looking a bunch as we have ever

Most of the harvesting in this sec
ton will be completed by the end
OF the week or the first of next, al
though there has been considerable
delay on account of the wet weather
of this week. The crop is reported

ly wi eat and oats. Corn has been
doing remarkably well of late and is
reported at least ten days ahead of
last year.

R. P. Kelsey, formerly of Brookings,
was married last week at Clear Lake.
The Clear Lake Advocate says: "a
very surprising event and one that
has caused much comment and specu-
lation in this city, is the marriage of
r. p. Kelsey and Mrs. Major Misner,
Of Goodwin. The ceremony is said to
have taken place last Saturday and
from information at hand we Judge the
wedding was not of very lengthy antici-
patton by the principals of the affair.
However, the Advocate is inclined to
the notion that the union of these two
most amiable old people will be con-
ducive of much happiness and we
hasten to extend to them our congratu-
~lations and hope each may be a great
comfort and blessing to the other"
