Sparkling Spectacle Lake

Last Sunday, for the first time in a
score Of years, the writer visited
Spectacle lake, and together with his
better half and score of others were
entertained by Mr.. and
Mrs. S. S. Peterson. Spectacle lake,
ten miles east Of Princeton and few
rods south of the Cambridge road,
although one of the smallest is by all
odds the prettiest sheet of water in
this vicinity-it is a sparkling gem in
a setting of emerald green and it's
waters never drumlie. Two more
spacious and well-equipped summer
cottages than those of S. S. and J. F.
Peterson could not be desired. The
only drawback to Spectacle lake,
from Pincetonian's viewpoint, is the
stretches Of sandy road that must be
traversed to reach it. There is a
rank growth of weeds on both sides
of the road almost all the way from
Princeton to the lake. If those weeds
were moved down and forked into the
road it would help some.

The Christian Church Meeting.

Pursuant to announcement the
annual meeting of the Wyanett
Christian church was held last Sun.
day. It was glorious sunshiny day
and there was large gathering
-sixty-6ve from Princeton were
present. There were morning SER
vices and Rev. Mr.. Marshall preached
an eloquent sermon. A basket pic
mic was held in the grove Immediately
adjoining the church, and the tables
were loaded down with good things to
eat; everyone brought a full basket,
and some must have brought two, for
after all had Toasted there was enough
left to feed as many more. There
were services again in the afternoon.
The singing was under the direction
OF Mr.. Charles Kopp of Princeton
and was enjoyed by everyone present.
It was the best and most successful
annual meeting held since the church
was organized.

Col. Stone Eulogizes Mr.. Hill.

Why is it that the country press
says so many slurring, uncomplimen-
tary things about James J. Hillo To
him, more so than to any other single
individual is to be attributed the won
derful development and growth of our
state: The reward he has gathered in
his years of toll is but moiety COM
pared with the benefits he has be-
slowed. Every move he has made in
his busy life has been for the ultimate
benefit of the people the common poor
people. And he keeps going steadily
forward in his work of development,
opening up new opportunities for
labor and inspiring the confidence of
the capitalists of the whole world,
and still the kickers kick.
Not in the history Of the. world can
there be found man, who single
handed accomplished so much for the
human race as James J. Hill and
what fortune he has accumulated is
but very small percentage of the
benefits he has conferred. Rush City

There is no section of the country
adjacent to Princeton that has i'm
proved so much in recent years as
that part of our own and Isanti county
east and northeast of the village.
Neat-appearing farm residences and
yards, large roomy barns and stables,
we'll cultivated fields and herds of
butter making COWS all indicate thrift
and prosperity. The roads only are
vile. Straw or marsh hay, or even
the weeds that grow in such profusion
along the roadsides would help out
wonderfully if strewn over the sandy
stretches and especially on the sandy
hills. Won't the town authorities of
Princeton and Wyanett townships see
that liberal applications of straw, hay
or weeds are applied to the roads be-
fore the heavy hauling commences?

Fire at Estes Brook,

The store building at Estes Brook
occupied by Jacob Knutson was de-
stroyed by fire on Monday morning.
Mr.. Knutson had purchased the stock
of goods from Mr.. c.. S. Grow some
time ago, but the building was still
the property of the latter. Mr.. Grow
supposed he had an insurs nee of $500
on the building in one of the COM
panies represented by Guy Ewing of
this village, but Mr.. Ewing claims
that the policy had been cancelled by
the company two or three weeks ago.
Mr.. Knutson carried an insurance of
$4,000 on the stock of merchandise
and his household furniture, and
claims that his loss will exceed
$4,000. The fire broke out in the
rooms over the store, but how it
originated is unknown. The value Of
the salvage will amount to about $500.

Harvesting of Small Grain Completed.

Grain-stacking will be completed
in this vicinity this week.
The weather has been ideal for har-
vesting operations. Certainly there
ought not to be any damp grain this
year. Quite number. of farmers
have threshed from the shock. The
yield is about an average one-wheat
runs from IA to % bushels to the acre,
we have heard of one field of oats that
averaged 60 bushels to the acre. Po-
tatoes are looking fine but a little
moisture would not come amiss at
this time. There is every indication
of the best crop of corn for several
years past and this is a good corn
country, too. From all we can gather
there will be good average-not
mper-crops in the vicinity Of
Princeton.

FAIR SEPT. t6, II, IS
Street Fair Project Abandoned and
Exposition Will Be Held on
the Old Fair Grounds.
Special Premiums Which Will Insure
Good Exhibits in Farm Prod.
ucts Will Be Offered.

At well-attended meeting of the
business men of the village held in NJ.
S. Rutherford & Co.'s Office on Mon
day afternoon the question of holding
street fair in lieu of the regular
county fair was discussed, and a
majority of those present seemed to
be in favor of street fair. In view
of the fact that there would be no gate
receipts committee consisting of
Magnus Sjoblom, T. F. Scheen and
T. 81. Galley was appointed to find out
how much money could be raised to
defray the necessary expenses. The
committee made canvass of the
town Tuesday and speedily discover
ed that it would be impossible to Sc
cure the requisite amount to hold a
successful street fair. Some of the
business men were willing to make
liberal contributions but others would
not give anything. Therefore the
street fair project will be abandoned
and the regular county fair will be
held on the old grounds as usual.
There is no reason why an attractive
program cannot be prepared and
premiums offered that will bring out
a large attendance.
Special premiums, large enough to
secure good exhibits of garden truck,
root crops, grains, grasses, fruit and
live stock, should be offered.
1t is to be hoped that the fair asso-
citation will be in a position to secure
permanent grounds of its own before
another year rolls around. There is
no reason why we should not have
one Of the best county fairs in the
state here every year.

Garden OF Eden in a region thirty
miles remote from railroad prior to
last November? When the lake
region is developed it will be a veri-
table garden spot. There is no more
productive soil in Minnesota than in
the Mile Laos region. Apples and
grapes grown within sight Of the lake
have taken first premiums at the state
fair on several occasions. We have
seen cornfelds on the southeast shore
OF the lake where the stalks we're from
II to Is feet in heighth and the ears
we're from 10 to Is inches in length.
