TWENTY-FIVE YEARS 400

The village schools closed last Fri
day for a vacation of three weeks.
Some loads of No. l hard brought
II cents on the streets yesterday.
Princeton still continues to be the
banner wheat market in this section
of the state.
Hen Webster reports. 100000 feet
OF logs banked at his camp on the
West Branch.
Major Fridley was in town this
week and raked in a goodly pile of
greenbacks for railroad lands.
Mrs. Abbey Stewart and Miss
Bertha Goss of Anoka are here on a
visit to their friend, Miss Belle
Goulding.
Miss Sadie Chadbourne left for St.
Paul on Wednesday morning, where
she will attend the teachers' institute
before resuming her duties in the Du-
luth schools.
The opposition wheat buyer, Mr..
Harris, is still in town and manages
to pick up few loads of wheat daily.
The farmers think a little competition
is good thing.
The Misses Zua and Leila Clough
OF Minneapolis stopped in town Mon
day evening while on their way to
visit their numerous friends and rela-
tiVes at Spencer Brook.
Ed Page and his bevy of fun-loving
Anoka school girls we're on the up
train on Monday evening. We hope
they will heed Bro. Eastman's advice
and call and see our good-looking
foreman.
A man was injured by a falling tree
at one of Page Bros. camps on Tues
day. The poor fellow was placed
aboard the train at Milaca and taken
to Anoka on Wednesday morning.
He cannot survive.
| Hon. T. Fl. Game passed away at
his home in Wyanett last evening.
He had been ailing for some time with
an affection of the lungs, but his
friends we're not aware of the fact that
he was dangerously i'll.
| Sheriff Howard has wisely con-
cluded to reappoint M. S. Cone as his
deputy at Bridgman. Nose under
stands his business and does very
we'll, and deputy could not be
chosen that would satisfy every ody.
The sheriff closed out Max Zimmer-
mans livery stable on Tuesday on
az attachment issued at the instance
of Charley Shatto of Minneapolis.
Princeton is growing fast and
improving rapidly, but there is no
room for more than one livery stable
yet, and Morehouse & Sons fill the
bill.
Things are fast getting into shape
at and around the depot. The water
tank and section house were CON-
pleted last week, the carpenters on the
st. Anthony & Dakota elevator have
also about completed their work and
have commenced on the building for
Cargill Bros. Depot Agent Chad
bourne and his bride are keeping
house in the depot building. The
railroad has effected quite a change
in that end of town.
Bridgman Correspondence To
play a prank upon one of our citizens
three young men on Friday evening
stole the sack of Christmas presents
be had bought for his children and
took it to saloon and pawned it for
drinks. He found out who the guilty
parties were and promptly got out
warrants for them. Justice Dunning
treated them to Christmas dinner in
the form of dollar fine and costs
each. He should have fined them
more.
There was gang of Indians in
town one day last week and they had
no trouble in getting all the frewater
they wanted to drink; besides, they
lugged Off several gallons with them.
OF course the Indians did not buy
direct from the saloonkeepers-they
secured the liquor through go-be-
tweens. There is trouble ahead for
some of these rum-dispensers. We
take occasion to reiterate what We
have often said befOre-the Mile Laos
Indians should be removed to White
Earth. One of these days there will
be trouble with some of the drunken
Indians and the government will he
compelled to remove them forcibly.
