No one who is interested in the ma
terial prosperity of our city will fail
to seo the advantages to be derived
from the establishment in our midst
of the proposed military and educa
tional institution and do all in his
power to promote the enterprise.
Such an institution would at once in
crease the value of property, stimu
late business, put monev Into circula
tion, give a new impi ,e to the cause
of education, bring to our city a de
sirable class of young men and moral
ly uplift the community. A paper is
in circulation to raise a sufficient
bonus. We understand that the man
agers are favorable to River F'alls as
the place of location, but this alone is
not sufficient to secure the institution.
Our citizens must show by their inter
est a desire for ii and this can only be
done by liberal subscriptions.

Of the highest importance and
interest are the chapters of the Lin

Mission. A thrilling episode is de
scribed in Kennan’s Siberan paper for

Free Command at tire Mines of Kara.”
and a description is given of Kennan’s
night visit to the political exiles at
the cottage of Miss Armfeidt.

for the institution by the Episcopal
authorities. A committee of the citi
zens has been appointed to raise a
bonus and to work to secure a location
of the school at River Falls.— (Sale* -

The National Educations' Association
will hold its annual met dug at Nash
ville, Tenn., July Bth to 20th, 1989, in
clusive. To accommodate the teach
ers, and the public generally, “The
Northwestern Line,” Chicago, St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha R’y—will
sell excursion tickets from all princi
pal stations on its lines to Nashville
and return, at one lowest first-class
fare for the round trip, with $2 added
for membership fee. Tickets will be
on sale from July Ist to 15tb, inclusive,
and will be made good for return pas
sage on or before Sept. 10th, 1889, but
in no case will they be honored for
return passage from Nashville before
July 16tli. Tickets must be signed by
purchasers and witnessed by agents of
terminal lines at Nashville before good
for return passage.
Special parties of 20, or more, will
find it to their advantage to charter
special sleeping cars fo*. the trip.
Regular sleeping car rater are as fol
lows: Double her* a, St. Paul or Min
neapolis to Chicago, $2.00; Chicago to
Nashville, $2.50.
Arrangements have been made witli
the lines leading from Nashville for
very low excursion rates for side trips.
No one should think of visiting Nash
ville without “going further,” and
enjoying the beauties of Chattanooga
and its interesting surroundings: Look
out Mountain. Walden’s Ridge, Chicka
mauga. Missionary Ridge, etc. A short
trip down the Tennessee River to the
Suck and Shell Mound will more than
repay the most exacting.
The round trip, Nashville to Chatta
nooga. can be made for $3.00, and for
$2.80 additional Atlanta may he visit
ed. The line between Chattanooga
and Atlanta was the scene of more
battles during the great Civil War
than any other railway In America.
‘•The Northwestern Line,” with its
connections, via Chicago, is known far
and wide as the Great Short Line. It
points with pride to its motto, “Always
on Time.” It is well known to the
traveler, that because the distance is
shorter between the Twin Cities and
Chicago via this line, than via its com
petitors, the speed of its trains for the
entire distance is uniform. No un
usual speed is required at one place to
make up for lost time at another.
It is magnificently equipped with
vestibuled trains, consisting of Pull
man and Wagner sleeping cars, with
the finest dining cars in the world,
catering to the wants of the traveling
public in every particular.
Knowing that educators are dis
criminating in their tastes, we do not
hesitate to ask you to give us a trial.
The result will be all that you could
desire.
Connections will be made at Chicago
with all lines diverging i > the South.
