Pantzke & John have had a splendid trade ever since they have been in business, having bought out John Bill -stein's grocery stock in th9 spring of 19n4. They havs both received very flattering propositions in other lines and this is given as the only reason for their selling out. It is being whispered around that we sell the best shoes in this city. That is right, too, judging from the number of shoes we sell They certainly must be the best, as you can sell a man a bad article onoe but you won't sell him an other. We sell the same people for years and are getting New Customers Every Day We sell the best shoes in town, and we are safe in saying that we sell more shoes than any other store in town. If you buy our shoes you will understand why. We give our cus tomers the best shoes their money can buy anywhere on earth, keep our styles right up to the hour, give special and expert attention to fitting. Buy your shoes at our store and you will always wear good shoes. Fergus Falls, ran by John Klewel, and it la-* very probable that he will accept it.

The Mississippi river reached its highest head of water at Little Falls Saturday, when the 25 foot level was reco*de4, which was within a half a foot of being as large ahead as ever was recorded here. The main -sluice has been closed during the winter and flash boards had been placed on part of tbe dam, which held back a con siderable head of water. The three small rivers between here and Brain erd have been discharging a great deal of water and this together with tbe breaking of the ice was the cause of large head of water Saturday, as there has been very little increase in Brain erd. The ice formed a jam in some places, north of the upper bridge to the height of twenty feet and was jamed up for about a mile. At Mreen Prairie a large tract of land was flood ed with about our feet of water. The river fell about eight inches between Saturday and Monday morning, but started to rise again Tuesday, and thought to at the 25 ft. level tnlght be reached again. The force of2th9 water was so great that it tip ped the sluice bridge, against which tbe timbers are put to shut off tbe water from the sin ice. The "needles'' which had been placed in tbe sloice way last fall, having baen taken out, the river fell nntil it had reached the level of 24 feet Wednesday morning. The iee went oat early Wednesday morning, breaking a boom a short dis tance above the city, setting free a large number of logs, they being all nnsorted, bat none of them will be lost, however, as they are held in chcck in the upper bay above the saw mill.
