New Ulm, lost pocket book con-
tanning $105. but found it after

Morgan Messenger: Morgan did
herself proud in swelling the at
tendance at the Redwood county
fair On Thursday, the second day
of the fair, Agent Ellison reports
the sale of 1870 tickets the largest
number ever sold here in any one
day for a like occasion.
Mortified News: This isn't a
waiting age and the man or commu-
nifty that is long on waiting invaria-
bly, gets left. If he should finally
get what is left over it wouldn't pay
for the long wait. The old saying
should be revised. 1t should read
"All things come to him who goes
after them"
Tracy Herald: A. w. Hizer of
Rochelle, H.. is in the city, looking
after fine quarter section farm he
owns few miles northeast Of here
in Redwood county. Mr.. H. owns
considerable Illinois land that he says

seen in southern Minnesota.

mighty clear idea Of the rapid adj

some.

nearly deserted last Wednesday
when our citizens and farmers hied
themselves off to the Redwood coun-

and more attractive than ever and
Horton people who attended praise
the management in the attractive
manner Of entertainment. The rae
ing course was the star feature on
the program and when Redwood
Falls doesn't get up attractive adj
yertising for their city it is because
the project is not worth it.
Sleepy Her aid: Last Friday after
noon an automobile driven by Badly
Aftermath of Springfield struc k
Malvin Clausen, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hans Clausen and knocked the little
fellow down and one of the wheels
run over his foot. The machine
was going at high speed and the
driver did not stop to see whether
the boy was killed or mot but got
out IF town as fast as possible. The
boy was taken to a doctor but no
bones were found to have been
broken. An arrest or two would
have a wholesome effect on fool
auto drivers.
