Donnybrook.

Market Day in Denny brook Saturday
August 10th.
Not content with the success which
attended the great gathering of last
year Donnybrook is this year plan
ming the biggest event in the history
of that enterprising little city. When
it comes to pulling off any public en-
|, terprise it takes Donnybrook to dc
the thing right.
Profiting by the experience of last
exhibition on the 18th which will sur.
pass anything of the kind which has
ever been attempted in this part Of
the state.
The exhibits this year will be ar
ranged in such a manner that each
township will have it's exhibits in sep
arate booths. A fine display is conf
IDENTIFY expected as the crops in the
territory surrounding Donnybrook
are looking fine.
The Donnybrook band has been en-
gagged to render concerts throughout
the day.
The Ivanhoe and Coulee base ball
teams are scheduled for a lively con-
test on Market Day.
A big free dance will be given in
the opera house in the evening, with
music furnished by the Donnybrook
orchestra.
No individual in the western part
Of the state can afford to miss the in
SEPARATION to be gained by attending
Donnybrook's Market Day.
The Donnybrook Commercial club
has secured w. H. Killen, land and in
dustrial agent of the 500 railroad, to
address representative gathering Of
bankers, business men and real estate
men which is scheduled for the occas-
ion.
Strong efforts are being made to in
duce good live, progressive class Of
settlers. Heretofore great deal Of
the land has been in the hands of a
class of professional homesteaders.
Now comes the big campaign for
more permanent, home-loving, enter
prising settlers.
E. l. Carey, Donnybrook's pioneer
land man, is one of the moving spirits
in the arrangements for this years
Market Day. Mr.. Carey has been in
northern Wisconsin for q couple Of
years and has absorbed many ideas
that will be valuable in the planning
for this years big day.
Editor Parrot Of the Courier was
conspicuous by his absence. The
management Of two newspapers has
proved such a lucrative proposition
that he has taken his family on Wis
it to his boyhood home in Wisconsin,
hoping, we presume, to get rid Of q
suDerabundance of his worldly gain.
He left the Courier in the, hands Of
Al Hanson, a very capable journal
list.
Donnybrook is soon to have q new
postmaster, or to be more exact, a
postmistress. Mrs. w. S. Sherman
has received her commission and ex-
poets to assume the Office the first Of
August. The Office will be moved in
to the Sherman building. Many Of the
old patrons Of the Office will miss the
smiling face Of John King, so long the
genial and obliging representative Of
Uncle Sam.
Mr.. King, upon retiring, expects to
locate some where in the province Of
Alberta, Canada, and engage in the
real estate business. He already has
9 long list Of prospective clients, pro-
vided he can find q location that will
meet their requirements in the way

ssE p. and w. Galehouse have one Of
the largest hardware and furniture
stores along the 500. The E. Gale
