7. Fay Cravens, of the Miiaca Times'' force, came down and helped the boys in this office in getting out a rush of work Friday and Saturday. Mr. Bender, in the south part of the village is reported to have traded his village property to Mr. Damon for the latter's farm on Battle Brook, Henry Horman Co.

opened their new clothing store on the east side of Main street, Wednesday. They have a good stock of goods at away down prices. Parties who desire to contribute to the relief of the fire sufferers can bring their donations to H. C. Head who will see that they are promptly sent to the needy ones.

M. C. Sausser reports the present summer as being a good one for trade in ice. The weather has been just the right kind to cause a strong demand for frozen products- J. Muzzy, chairman, G.

B. Walker, A. J. Barrett, A. C.

Anderson, E. Erickson and Collin Campbell are the relief committee at Miiaca. Send aid to them for sufferers. Chas. A.

Dickey and Deputy Sheriff McCuaig took a trip to Miiaca, Saturday, on legal business. They were detained at Foreston nearly four hours by the raging forest fires. Chas. Elder lost eight or ten tons of hay on Woodard Brook, Thursday night. It had been carefully protected by plowing, but in some unaccountable manner it took fire and went up in smoke.

A. Umbehocker, L. Sausser and Mahlen Ellenbaum came down from the big lake Monday, where they had been looking over the prospects for a cranberry crop. They report a scarcity of that fine berry. The dinner on the court house lawn, to be given by the Dorcas society, has been given up, owing to so many ofithe ladies being over-worked in gathering supplies for the sufferers from the fire SECRETARY.

Miss Sota McBain, of Minneapolis, is here for a few days as the guest of Miss Fannie Jones. The lady is spoken of as a talented elocutionist and may probably favor the Princeton public with a display of her attainments. Minnesota McBain, dramatic reader and impersonator, will give one of her popular entertainments at the Congregational church, Wednesday evening, Sept. 12th, under the auspices of the Y. P.

S. C. E. Music will be furnished by the best local talent. Mattie Vickers Sept.

7. Several young men from the Twin Cities were in town, Saturday, fitting up for a trip through the country to Mille Lacs lake. The fire delayed them for a day or two. Monday the road to the lake was passable and teams could travel without trouble. A.

N. Dare, the editor of the Elk River Star News, will make an intelligent representative from the 38th legislative district. He is a man well posted as to the people in the State, and his wide acquaintance with public men will be very useful to him in the halls of legislation.Monticello Times. H. E.

Craig represented Sherburne county in the last legislature creditably and well. He was loyal to his convictions, and to his party. If reelected we believe he will do the district credit. Wright county gave him a big vote in 1892, and we believe her record will not be lowered in 1894. Monticello Times.

Ten or twelve hunters came up from Minneapolis and St. Paul, Friday, to be in at the first day of the open season for the killing of prairie chickens. Chickens are here in goodly numbers, but the extremely dry weather makes it almost impossible for the dogs to find them. As a result no very large bags have been brought in. Miss Mattie Vickers and her popular company have just finished a very successful week at the Metropolitan opera house in St.

Paul, and the St. Paul papers speak very highly of her, and especially of her excellent support. Princeton people should not miss this of seeing one of the best plays that visits the Twin Cities. At the Sherburne county Democratic county convention held in Elk River, Monday. Delegates to the State convention are Chas.

Wheaton, Joe Libby, J. W. Coates and Henry Murphy. Congressional convention at St. Cloud, J.

W. Dingman, J. Coates, and JTrank Brown. Baldwin will get the delegation. No fusion goes with Sherburne county Democrats.

The entertainment last evening in the opera house by the Masonic Quartette was as expected a first-class one, and raised the famous singers higher than ever in the estimation of the Princeton public. Miss Zweitzer and Miss Bartholomew are noted specialists in their respective lines and were both roundly encored. It is a pleasure to have such an aggregation we city. ou lit- Restaurant and James Burke has opened up his restaurant and grocery in the Cowles building on Main stre'et. He carries a full line of groceries and will sell at as low figures as any other merchant in town.

Meals, good clean meals, served at all hours. C. H. Rines Co. are in the market to stay this fall and pay the highest market prices for good, ripe potatoes.

Early Rose and Early Ohios are what they want next Monday morning, Sept. 10th. Do not mistake the date but come in with yonr ripe potatoes, Monday next. School opened Monday with a good attendance. The teachers are G.

Miss Mattie Vickers, Sept. 7 E. D. Douglas, of Baldwin, killed an old bear and two cubs and captured a third cub, Thursday afternoon of last week, Chas. Nokes and Chas.

Harmon killed two large cubs about threequarters of a mile west of town, Saturday afternoon. Within the last fifteen days hunters have captured and killed twenty-two of the bear family all within five miles of town. The fierce forest fire north of town and the heavy crop of acorns on the jack oak timber has brought them down in this vicinity. Messrs. Soule and Wheeler and their wives returned Thursday from their trip to Mille Lacs lake.

They camped at the old Trading Post on their way up, also one night at South Harbor. From that point, they went to Chas. Rodgers' stopping place where they stayed until their return home. They saw bear, deer and moose in the way of big game, and hundreds of partridges and ducks, along the river and around the lakes. Mille Lacs lake is the place to visit for a few days' recreation.

The Circus Queen which Miss Vickers appears in Friday Sept. 7th, is not like most farce comedies "a one part but each character of Hurrah the Circus Manager is very strong and as portrayed by Eric Pollock keeps the audience in roars of laughter all the time. The same may be said of the part of Nicholas Brinks afterwards the clown as presented by Edwin Russell and in fact all of the members of the company have.comedy parts of equal merit. A special feature will be the singing of Miss Bessie Rosenzweig the Polish nighingale. Miss Winifred Kenely, who has been attending school at the St.

Cloud Normal school for two or: three past, has been a hard worker and has acquired a good education. Lately Miss Kenely wrote an analysis of a production by Denton J. Snyder. The teacher of literature in the Normal school sent the analysis to Miss Harrison, principal of the Chicago Kindergarten, who was so pleased with the analysis that she at once adopted the same as a model in her school. The author, Mr.

Snyder, was so pleased with Miss Kenely's analysis that he sent her a copy of his latest work. Pursuant to a call issued by Wm. Cordiner, chairman of the Democratic county committee, for the election of delegates to the Democratic State convention and the Sixth district congressional convention. A large and representative element of Mille Lacs county Democracy assembled in the village hall of Princeton, at 1. p.

Aug. 31st. On motion Wm. Cordiner. was elected chairman and G.

A. Eaton secretary. Frank Newton, Daniel Spaulding and Jacob Roos were chosen as delegates to the State convention, and Chas. Keith and Wm. Cordiner to the congressional convention.

A resolution was adopted favoring Judge Searle. Convention adjourned subject to call of chairman. Mattie Vickers will appear at the opera house in her new play of circus life, The Circus Queen, on Friday, Sept. 7th. This play was written chiefly to amuse the people and not to overtax the brain in the way of a plot.

It affords Miss Vickers and the other members of the company excellent opportunities to introduce the several specialites and the management claim all new and original features. A special scene illustrating the interior of a circus tent is comical for the second act and is yery realistic. One can almost smell the sawdust and taste the red lemonade, also the painted candies. In this act several new andwill pleasing novelties are introduced, including Miss Vickers in her famous German songs and dances. Mr.

Eric Pollock, Mr. Edwin Russell as the clown and Messrs. Avery and Anden. Miss Elma Latimore the Spanish dancer and Bessie Rosensweig the great Polish nightengale. Vf A Great Deal for Readers of this paper can obtain the St.

The selection is good, and if you and use it, you will find it will give you good satisfaction and improve your appearance. Court convened Tuesday afternoon with Judge Cadwell of the 8th judicial district on the bench. Judge Searle is sick and could not possibly get here. Judge Baxter was unavoidably detained at home for three or four days, and Judge Cadwell of LeSueur came to keep his legal eye on the proceedings until the arrival of Judge Baxter.

Judge Cadwell has created a very favorable impression among the members of the bar. Prompt and decisive in his rulings, business is disposed of with a dispatch that surely commends itself to the tax-payer. Excuses, unless well-grounded, are not countenanced by the court, and as a result, cases are well in hand when the appointed time comes for them. R. A.

Judgment, was rendered in all except two of the tax cases. Quite a number of the civil 'cases were continued, several were settled. In the case of Johnson Miller against C. P. Conger, judgment was rendered for plaintiff.

In the case of the State against Mattie Pierce, the same was dismissed. The jury was impaneled in the case of State against Thos. Pitmon, Tuesday, and the case was laid over until three o'clock Wednesday afternoon to await arrival of a witness, when it was brought on for trial. The jury in the Thos. Pitmon incest case were D.

The defendant was represented by W. Bruckart, who put up as strong a case as possible under the circumstances. County Attorney Ross waded into the case with an earnestness that showed that he meant business. The judge's charge was an impartial one but clearly explained the duties of the jurors. The case was given to the jury o'clock, and at 10:10 o'clock they brought in a verdict of guilty and the judge will probably pass sentence on Thos.

Pitmon this afternoon. Judge Baxter came in yesterday on the 3 P.M. train. F. P.

Lane looms up among the members of the bar, to-day. Stenographer Russell is on hand as usual. A little attention to some cases would facilitate business. JThe work of the grand jury has not been heavy up to date. They wilj probably get through to-morrow.

The other night, the bell tinkled with all its might and main. Springing up and seizing his ever ready shot he made for the edge of the garden, and espied, as he supposed, a man right in the center of the patch. His ire was up, and heC.

called out in thunder tones for the intruder to get out of that or get a dose of shot. The fellow did not seem disposed to travel, so approaching nearer, he again ordered the trespasser to move on saying as he advanced, "I count ten and if you don't git I'll shoot you." Five had been counted before the melon thief realized" his situation, then dropping down on all fours with a snort that made the melon vines tremble, he started for the woods at a mighty pace, while the defender of the melons went the other way forthirty-three the house at lightning speed. It was nothing more nor less than a big black bear that had-stood up on his hind feet to get a better view of the manhearing who was shouting at him.

Some years ago we were very much subject to severe spells of cholera morbus and now when we feel any of the symptoms that usually precede that ailment, such as sickness at the stomach, diarrhoea, we become scary. We have found Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy the very thing to straighten one out in such cases, and always keep it about. We are not writing this for a pay testimonial, but to let our readers know what is a good thimg to keep handy in the house. For sale by C. A.
