Announcement.

l wish to publicly announce to my
friends in New Ulm and vicinity who
may not be informed that am not one
of the hypocrites of Hanska who talk
prohibition and are against the saloon
whea they are at home and tank up
almost invariably whenever they get
away from home to some place where
the sale of Liquor is not prohibited.
1 have always favored saloons for
Hanska and was one OF the first ones
to sign the petition for resubmission
OF this question at the last spring
election. 1 resent the application
"Hanska Indian" because 1 do not
belong to the tribe. l have lived in
Linden and Hanska for the past 80
years and have endeavored during all
that time to live an honest, upright
life and 1 am indebted to nobody.

CHAPTER XII.
~Introducinq Peter,


1t was a new country to ME that we
traversed, a rolling country, but moi
thickly settled, although the road ap
peared to be a w~ell-beaten track. The
gloom, coupled with the rapidity o.
u movements, prevented me from
seeing anything other than those din
objects close at hand, yet we were
east. | ~endeavored to enter into con
v~ersation with the two fellows riding
on either side of me, but neither one

Of the attempt. The night told me
they were both in the uniform of the
Queens Rangers, the one called Peter

bald-headed, his bare scalp shining
oddly when once he removed his
cooked hat; the other was an Older
man. with gray chin beard, and gilt

The movements of my horse caused
the ropes to lacerate my wrists and
ankles, the pain increasing SO that
once or twice | cried out. The fel-
lows guarding me did not even turn
their heads, but the lieutenant drew
up his horse so as to block us.
What is the trouble? Are you
hurt?"
These ropes are tearing into the

if they we're loosened a bit"

face with one hand, as he stared
toward me through the darkness. |
thought he drew a quick breath as
from surprise, and there was a mo-
ment's hesitancy.
Let out the ropes a trife, Peter"
came the final order.
The little b~ald-headed mar went at
it without a word, the lieutenant rein
ing back his horse slightly. and draw
ing his hat lower over his eyes. In
the silence one of the horses neighed,
and the boy seemed to straighten in
his saddle, glancing suspiciously about.

A Hunting Story.

All kinds of hunting stories are COM
ing out of the woods this fall but the
best one we have heard this fall is told
on bunch of lilo nimrods who spent
several days hunting the nimble deer in
the Slate Creek country. The crowd
was well equipped with supplies and
spent about as much time in camp as
on the trail One part Of the outfit
consisted of half grown hound and
this inquisitive animal got to shopping
around camp one morning, got its head
fast in can and proceeded to raise
all kinds of a commotion in the neigh
borhood. One of the brave hunters
heard the noise, grabbed his trusty rifle
and catching bead on the fleeing cou
gar Gas he thought proceeded to blow
it to kingdom come. The investigation
which followed disclosed the nature Of
the fierce animal and the story was so
rich the other members of the party
could not keep it to themselves.

Raised the Bridge.

When the piers for the Cottonwood
bridge were completed according to
the plans and specifications, it was no
ticed that the structure would not clear
the high water mark. n. B .Pettibone,
in his. capacity as county commission
err, inspected the work thus far COM
pleted, and quickly discovered the de-
feet and the probable disastrous results
the ravaging torrents which come down
the creek every spring would cause. He
therefore ordered the piers to be raised
two feet, making the bridge sufficient
ly high to clear any stage of water
that could possibly come down the
stream. This action on the part of
Mr.. Pettibone is to be highly commend
ed, inasmuch as it shows the use of
long headed judgment at the proper
time.

RipR Rap Dance February LIST.

dance to raise funds for the rip
rapping of the creek front through the
business part of town is planned for
Friday, February 1st. The committee
who have this work in charge are short
about 5000 on the cost and it is hoped
with the dance this will be at least cut
in half. There will be very little ex-
pense connected with the affair, if pres
ent plans carry, and good addition
to the fund should be made in this way.
1t is thought the Odd Fellows will do
nate the use of their hall to the com.
mite for that evening. The music
will be donated by the Nichols Frizzell
orchestra. And it is planned to have
the ladies of the town furnish and serve
the supper in the banquet room of the
hall. The committee in charge of the
rip-rap work-Chas. Wilson. Edw. G.

the incest mess of fish ever brought to

says the fish are very plentiful in the
river about six miles above Kooskia

surface. The salmon are procured with
spears, their eggs being used as bait
for catching the smaller fish.
