li. C. JJerg wants to see all his
friends again needing wood.
Capt. Cope came in from his farm
Tuesday and passed on to Fargo on
business.
Married, by Rev. J. F. Ilill, July
25, 1887, Mr. Charles Stoneburg and
Miss Amanda Youngsburg, both of
Herman, Minnesota.
The band will give asocial hop at
Seely's opera house, Wednesday
evening next. Tickets 50 cents.
Let everybody turn out and have a
good time and aid the band.
Receiver Sibley is in St. Paul this
week, and before going promised
to try and get some ball players,
but at last accounts it seemed a
iliflicult matter to get good unem
ployed players.
That correspondent who sent
to the Pioneer Press the notice of
the death of the showman's wife,
should send one more and then go
off and hate himself to death There
was not a single particle of truth
in any part of the report.
A street car driver in Minne
apolis, named Thos. Tallefson, was
shot and killed Tuesday evening
and his money box carried away.
No clue to the theives. The deed
wat done at the turn table, corner
Lake street and Cedar avenue.
J. C. Raymo says THE TIMES may
call attention to the fact that Dr.
Wheeler, veterinary surgeon, per
formed a remarkable cure in the
case of one of his horses. The horse
had about been given up as lost,
but Dr. Wheeler was called and
straightened him out.
Fargo defeated Fergus, Tuesday,
six to three, and Grand Forks de
feated Fergus, Wednesday, fourteen
to seven. In latter game it is
noticed that Munsell of the Forks
struck out sixteen, while Davis of
Fergus struck out two. The Forks
is undoubtedly boss of the walk at
present.
Call Vault/, living three miles
south of Ilankinson, on the 14th
inst. lost his barn and granary, four
horses, a colt, hay and some grain
ij, from lightning. This is the same
night the depot was burned at
Wahpeton, the elevator get on fire
at Wyndniere and the drug store
struck at Breckinridge.
'tir Argus, 28: Captain Cope, clerk of
court at Wahpeton, favored the Ar
gus with a pleasant call yesterday.
X, He has been out on his farm for a
•y few weeks, and is looking link and
hearty. The captain is a little mod
est about that farm, but from other
sources it was learned that the
natural advantages can hardly be
surpassed in the valley, and the
owner is making it a veritable gar
den spot.
An Abercrqmbie correspondent to
The Argus mentions a storm at that
place Monday evening which un
roofed the -barn and demolished the
granary and machine shed belonging
to E. M. Ilackett also the granary
of Clark Scoville and that of Olans
Bakken.and says that a day or two
prior thereto lightning burned 100
tons of hay belonging to Charley
Miller on the Minnesota side of the
river.
Mrs. Edward Cross, whose hus
band is treasurer of and special de
tective with Barrett's circus, died
very suddenly here Monday evening,
from the effect of an over dose of
medicine. The lady took the medi
cine not far from ten o'clock, then
eating lier supper, repaired to the
dressing room preparatory to rctir
log where she seems to have dropped
pp upon the floor and died—or was very
nearly dead when found. She was
jm exceedingly pretty woman, nine
years of age, and was the life
pet of the show people, though

FROM LIDGERWOOD.
To the Editor of Tlie Times.
The late rains make the machine
men smile as well as the farmers
crops are looking up splendidly in
this locality.
We are enjoying more quietude
than we have for the past six weeks.
Undoubtedly the loss of Elliott &
Dougherty's livery has not a little
to do with the quietude. The fire
broke out about five o'clock last
Friday morning and in a few min
utes the barn and contents were
past redemption, except one mare,
which, when the door was broken In,
came bounding out of the flames so
badly burned that she can hardly
survive. There were three hones
burned to death, besides several bug
gies, harness, etc. It no doubt was
the work of an idle miscreant who
was sleeping in the barn during the
night. KOKOMO.
Lidgerwood, July 13,1887.
A WEEK LATER.
Crops are reported looking fine,
18 to 25 bushels being the expected
yield.
Anton Zatocill's boot and shoe
store is about half done. He will
probaby begin business next week.
Elder Movius is rushing work on
his residence. He is perching on
the roof with a pail of paint and a
brush to-day.
Geo. I. Lidgerwood, the M. & P.
railway man and father of our thriv
ing Jown is with us. He is going to
stock up the hardware store next
week.
11. N. Ink made us a short visit
last week. He says Lidgerwood
will knock Wahpeton "out of the
box" in two years. A big county
seat fight expected.
Mr. A. B. Ililliard, foreman on
the Cleveland farm, is here to-day
with two four-horse teams, after
brick for the foundation of the large
residence to be built on the farm
this summer. KOKOMO.
Lidgerwood, July 20, 1887.
ANOTHER FROM LIDGERWOOD.
To the Editor or The Times:
The three lumber yards do a nice
business at this place.
The new shoe store is about fin
ished and ready for business.
Crops are looking well hereabouts
and harvest will be in full blast in
a few days.
We have one of the nicest drug
stores in the comity owned and con
ducted by Dr. Weller.
The Minneapolis & Pacific rail
road has moved the division from
this place to Foreman.
We would like to have the editor
of THE TIMES come out and hunt a
few days with us at the lakes this
fall.
Smyth & Dorsey got two car loads
of binders and ttvine this week.
They are also looking for two car
loads of Minnesota Chief threshers.
OCCASIONAL.
FROM BARRH2~
To the Editor ot The Times:
Mr. Pinnell has just eloped a suc
cessful term of school in sub district
No. 2.
In their new uniforms the Barrie
base ball nine m^ke an imposing
picture.
Porter Smith, with the assistance
of that patent haystacker is putting
up that valuable article at a 2:40
gait.
The town roads are getting in nice
driving order under the able super
vision of our roadmaster, and makes
driving a pleasuie.
Any person passing through the
northern part of the county can by
passing through this township be
shown as nice fields of wheat as any
in the Red River valley, notwith
standing the heavy winds and frost
of early spring.
That controversy over the hay on
the Sawyer farm was quite amusiug.
We understand it was a case of who
got there first had the hay. It was
not "get there Eli," but get there
Levi, and he failed to respond. In
the meantime our friend Doty was
there with both feet, and made hay
while the sun shone. Wno.

Empty bottles, broken windows and
torn maps were scattered about in
profusion.
The boys feel somewhat concerned
in regard to the game of ball they
are to play with the Fairmount nine

and exciting one.

by chopping away the burning part
they succeeded in saving the ele
vator, which was half full of wheat.
Owing to the heavy rain that fell
after the bolt the fire must have
smoldered for a long time, as when
discovered it had just broken through
the roof. It was also fortunate that
it located only in the roof and was
not carried any further down into
the body of the building, as in that
case it would have been impossible
to save it. Mr. R. N. Peters, agent
for the N. P. Elevator company, who
was sleeping in the engne room at
the time extends sincere thanks in
behalf of his employers to the citi
zens of Wyndniere for their timely
assistance, which unquestionably
saved the building and contents.
Wyndniere, July 14, 1887.
FROM WALCOTT.
To the
of Tiie Times:
Gilbertson A Grant are busy put
ting np binders.
F. E. Davis made a flying trip to
Wahpeton last Monday.
A hailstorm on the 25th done con
siderable damage to the grain in
tnis neighborhood.
Mr. S. Hilling has made a trip to
Fargo and returned with a pair of
spotted Indian ponies. Yery fine.
Mr. Fremont, a colored gentle
man, gave a very interesting lecture
last Friday evening on the subject,
"The Sunny South." K. G. H.
Walcott, July 27, 1887.
The city is full of tramps and the
police court is kept busy.
Mrs. M. P. Propper returned from
her eastern visit this morning, Mr.
Propper having gone down to meet
her at St. Paul.
Treasurer Ulsaker and family are
at their farm this week on the roar
ing Sheyenne. It is pleasant to get
out in the open air and look over
the green fields such days as these.
The Enterprise, published at Shel
don, on the Sheyenne river, repro
duced the oration delivered there
the Fourth by Capt. R. J. Mitchell
of Power, .this county, and the
same is a model in patriotism and
ability. The fact that Wahpeton
does not contain all that is good
and great and desirable in the
county we admit, and think that
the captain might drop down here
occasionally and make the acquaint
ance of the boys. We believe the
captain is a lawyer recently of
Washington, and is putting in a
little time with the Messrs. Power,
or something of that sort. Is doing
Dakota, at any rate. But then the
oration O, yes, it was solid and
all right.
