Quite number of the sporting fra
ternity of Princeton we're down last
Friday night to witness wrestling
match between Ben Hass and Ed
Kreasel of Stanford. The boys
struggled about an hour when Hass
received an injury in the back that
compelled him to quit. The gate re-
ceipts of thirty dollars could have
been spent to better advantage. Law
renee Clough was referee. It looks
as though the next colossal fad will be
wrestling.
It looks as though the legislators
will quarrel over the Rowe bill until
the Armour plant goes to some other
state. It is of vital Importance to the
cattle raisers and all the people of the
northwest that the plant be located at
New Brighton or some other place of
equal railroad facilities. The only
objection seems to be the stencil ema-
mating from such business. If the
people of st. Paul, living five miles
away, cannot stand it what will be-
come of the employees that will prob
ably live within one half mile of the
plant?
Mrs. Andrew Blomquist, who has
been i'll for some time, passed away

Soleron, Sweden. Her maiden name
was Carrie Peterson and she was sixty
nine years of age. She leaves a hus-
band, one son and two sisters, all
residents of Spencer Brook. Funeral
was held at the house Tuesday after
noon, Rev. Hall preached the sermon,
and the interment was in the Clough
cemetery.
