GROUND BROKEN.—Ground has been
broken for the new Union Scboolhouse.
STARTID.—Gen. Barrett started his sur
veying crews for Devil's Lake on Tuesday.
He has a large contract there.
A S I O S a a
Smit from this place 3 4 0 0 0 rats
besides a large quantity of other furs.
IN BLOSSOM.—The apple trees in this vi
cinity are loaded with bloom. The sea
son has been very favorable, and a fine
yield may be expected.
CxoexxxY.—Mrs. Tilton has a lot offrom
crockery, all kinds, which will be sold
cheap.
H. B. FURS.—On Friday fifty bales,
weighing ten thousand pounds, of the Hud.
son Bay Company's fun were shipped from
this place to England.
RAM.—On Monday and Monday night
a fine warm rain fell, doing an untold
amount of good. More rain is falling to
day, and the weather is cloudy.
POP.—A pop manufactory has been
started in upper town. It is said to turn
out an article as good as any that has been
imported. Kraus & Zimmerman are theon
proprietors.
Dmo.—The St. Paul Pioneer, speaking
of some fat cattle, says they were "hard to
beat." We also find some occasionally
here that are hard to b'eat.
APPLES.—M. E. Nixon last week shipped
to St. Paul forty barrels more of nice
sound green apples. St. Cloud Is rapidly
becoming a wholesale point.
QUARTZ MILL—It is reported that Capt.
Newson, of St. Paul, is making arrange
ments to nse the power at Libby's saw mill,
Watab, to drive a quarts mill. We give
the rumor for what, it is worth, which is
probably not much.
No. 1.—The ladies say there is nothing
to be compared to the Royal Standard Al
pacas, for which Pickit & Abbott have the
agency in St. Cloud.
IMPROVING.—All kinds of business in
town are improving, notwithstanding that
this is the farmers' busy season. The
heavy amount of government and Hudson
Bay Company's transportation done adds
materially to the trade of the town. Build
ing operations are also being carried on
extensively.
BOOKS.—Parties wishing to order books
can do so by calling at Mrs. FarwelTs store.
Orders will be made out on Mondays
Catalogues of all the principal publishers
on hand, from which selections can besouring
made.
8ow PLOW.—We have seen the model
of anew snow plow, invented by Major
Murphy, H. T. Daendels and Dr. Schul
ten. They have filed on it for one year at
the Patent Once. The idea of the plow is
entirely new, and the invention bids fair
to be a success. A practical test will be
made next winter.
VANDALISM.—Some unprincipled scoun
drel has cut down a eouple of the grand
old pines which grow along the ravine.
They are worth more than money to thegaiters
place, and the wretch who wilfully cut
them down would steal if opportunity of
fered. A watch is being kept, and if the
offender is caught he will be made to suffer
severely.
GOOD LAUDS.—The tracts in Stearns and
Pope counties, advertised elsewhere, are
all first quality,lands, and offer good in
•*tments. To parties wishing to purchase
vhole lot a heavy reduction will be
HOTEL Bonus.—In this week's Issue will
be found the official advertisement of the
City Council asking proposals for building
the new hotel and taking the $12,600 bo
nus. Hers is a good chance for some cap
italist to invest his money to the very best
advantage. A first class hotel at St Cloud
would be crowded summer and winter.
There would be no lack of patronage—good
paying patronage. And besides the bonus
is an item well worth considering. We ex
pect the Council will have an abundance of
proposals from which to select.
RIAPSBS A Mownas.—Rosenberger
Bros, have just received a lot of the well
known McCormick reapers and mowers.
These machines need no commendation.
Their unparalleled success is ail the en
dorsement that could be asked for. Farm
ers who have tried them will use no oth
er. A largo ttock of stoves and general
also been received by the
hardware has
same firm.
RIMOVAI.—J. W. Metsroth has removed
his clothing store np opposite the Central
House. He will make suits in the latest
Paris and London styles—guaranteed to be
satisfactory.? itocn. of ready made
clothing and gent's famishing goods is
complete, and he would ask a call from
purchasers. See advertisement.

BOARD or TEAM.—On Friday eveaing
an adjourned meeting of the Board was
held. Col. Kerr and Wm. Powell, from
the Committees appointed to looate the
road to Kling's, reported that they had
thoroughly examined the ground over
which it was to pass, and found the most
feasible crossing of the marsh to be on the
line surveyed for a State Road by Messrs.
Garrison, Campbell and Hicks, and from
the bluff beyond the marsh by the town
ship Hue to the corner of Kling's fence.
The distance actoss the marsh was 495
yard*, which would require about 1,000
cubio yards of road to be made. Th* e»nl»
necessary to be taken from .the bluff would
be sufficient to make the road. After get
ting down about a foot in the marsh the
bottom is hard pave. With a ditch on ei
ther side, an excellent road could be made.
A committee consisting of H. C. Wait,
W. Powell and J. E. Hayward was appoint
edto definitely looate the road, procure
the right of way, and make an accurate es
timate of expenses. They were authorised
to incur such expenses as might be neces
sary, including the employment of a civil
engineer, and were required to report at
the next meeting.
On motion of Mr. Bridgman it was re
solved that the City Counoil be requested
to appropriate the necessary amount for
the construction of the roai, and the Sec
retary was directed to communicate this
resolution to that body.
The Committee on Manufactures was in
creased by the addition of L. A. Evans, J.
E. Hayward and Wm. Powell.
The Beard then adjourned until next
Tuesday evening, when they will meet at
their rooms over Pickit & Abbott's store.
ARRESTED FOR MCRDKR.—A man named
Uzeb Perine was arrested last week st Al
bon, in Wright county, on the charge of
having murdered his wife's child. It seems
that the child died suddenly on the night
of the 10th, and was buried by Perine
alone. Suspicions were aroused, and
about ten days afterwards the body was
disinterred, and a coroner's jury return
ed a verdict that the child came to its
death from strangulation at the hands of
Perine. He was arrested and confined in
the jail at Montcello to await trial at the
June term of the District Court. The foro
goiag foots we learn from Hon. H. L. Gor
don, of this city, who returned from Mon
cello this week, having been engaged to
defend Perine.
PSRSOVAL. —On Tuesday we had a call
Warren Adley, the proprietor of the
Lake House, at Osakis, one of the best
houses in the upper country.
Mr. L. Kelles, of Sauk Centre, returned
yesterday from a trip eastward.
Gov. McTavish, of the Red River Settle
ment, passed up en Friday.
Jos. Goyette arrived home a few days
aince
from an extended tour through sever
al of the Western States.
We had a call from Mr. E. H. Atwood, of
Maine Prairie, who reports the crops in
that section as looking very well. A great
er breadth of ground, by at least one
quarter, than last year has been sown.
M.D. Cambell, of Maywood, was in town
Tuesday. He says the saw mill recent
ly destroyed there will be re-built.
Among the arrivals at the Central House
this week we note: W. L. Hardesty and
W. J. Christie, wife and servants, Hudson
Bay Territory J. B. Atkinson, Forest

A E S A A S Mr
Eira Briggs, of Little Falls, we learn that
the quantity of maple sugar manufactured
in the Upper Mississippi country this sea
son was very large—at least one-third more
than last year. The quality, in general,
it not quite so good as usual. The sugar
there is mostly made by Indians and half
breeds, who granulate and pack it in birch
bark cases. They never make syrup from
anv but the "last run" of sap, which is
not good for sugar, unless upon a special
order. Mr. Briggs says that last year they
sold at their store six tons of maple sug r,
almost all for consumption in that part of
the country. Speaking of maple syrup
during the warm weather, Mr.
says that if left for six months or so after

Mr. McKinney and wife were both absent, .made. —.=
and when he came in sight of the building
at noon it was all in a blaze. Nothing be
yond a eouple of trunks was saved. The
origin of the fire is unknown. The build
ing was anew one. Loss about $1,600
partially insured.
when first Th fermentation seems
to rid it of all impurities, and it comes from
the barrel like "golden drip." This has
been tried for a number of years with per
fect success. The information will be of
benefit to many.
SASH, DOORS, &C—F. H. Dam calls the
attention of the people of the upper coun
try to his facilities for manufacturing doors,
I blinds, sash, mouldings, casings, &c. His
factory is provided with all the best,, latest
and most improved machinery, enabling him
to do the best work at low rates. Price
lists sent on application.
Boors ASD SHOES CHEAP.—M. E. Nixon
has a very large stock of men's and boys',
and women's and misses' boots, shoes and

CHICAGO POST.—We would call attention
*o the notice of the further enlargement of
this enterprising sheet. The Pott has add*
ed column after column until it has now
ten to each page. It is an able, spicy,
readable sheet.
—To persons living in the counties to
the south and south-west of this, who have
need of legal services, we would commend
Cbas. B. Howell, Esq., of Geeenleaf. Mr.
H. is especially well qualified to take
oharge of land matters, as he was for a
number of years engaged in the General
Land Office at Washington. He will be
found prompt and reliable.
ALL THI Tins.—Think over it in your
waking moments, make it the subject of
your dreams, that Pickit & Abbott sell all
kinds of dress goods, clothing, boots,
I shoes, etc., cheaper than the cheapest.
This advice is for your own benefit.
ROUHD TABU.—Attention is called to
the advertisement of the Round Table, one
of the best literary papers in the country
Its book reviews alone are worth the price
of subscription.
—C. W. West has opened in the Post
Office building a confectionery and fruit
stand, where he keeps the nicest of every
thing in that line.
—C. M. Doughty has stuffed the skin of
a bull snake, seven feet and tea inehes
long, killed on the east side of the river,
by W. Chambers. He has also stuffed
swan which measures six feet across the
wings.
—On Sabbath next Rev. Noah Lathrop,
of Paynesville, will preach at the M. E.
church.
—Call at Mrs. Tilton's and examine fur«

Combined Reapers and Mowers, ctto.
Grovenor & Co. are receiving now-a-days
a large amount of reapers, mowers, horse*'
rakes, &c. for the ooming harvest. Amougst
them they have the Hubbard Combined
Reaper and Mower, mauufttoturcd by
Younglove & Massey, Cleveland, Ohio,'
which is gotten up on an entirely new
principle, something that has always seen
needed to make a perfect combined reaper.
It has a fast motion for mowing and a slow
motion for reaping it is double geared, so
ihut whea on* pm-t is at work the other is
not, and can be changed by the driver
by just shifting a lever. It must be seen
to be appreciated, and all the farmers that
look at it say it is "the" machine.
All of the Hubbard Mowers are made
with that gear this year, so that farmers
who do not have grain to cut this year can
get the mower, and then get the reaping
attachment next year.
For a single light mower they have the
Meadow King, formerly Theyer's Iron
Mowwr, which is all steel and iron exoept
the tongue and trhiffletrees, and is so con
structed that the pitman is always on line
with the sickle, no matter how far the cut
ter bar is raised or lowered. The sim
plicity and durability of it commends it
self to every one. It took the first premi
um at the Slate Fair at Minneapolis last
fall, as also did the Hollingsworth Sulky
Rake which they have for sale. They pro
pose to farmers to put them in competition
with any other mower and rake made in
the Cnitfd States, and keep the one that
does the best work.
The New Yorker Self Rake Reaper has
its usual Urge number of salts this year
with this firm. There are more of them sold
through the Sauk Valley than of any other
reaper in the market.
The combined Self Rake Kirby Reaper
was introduced by the firm through this
section last year, and comes well recom
mended by all who have ever seen it used
as the "Little Kirby" which is light strong
and very durable.
The Little Champion Hand and Self Ra
king Reaper with a separate jointed bar
mowing attachment, is the lightest draft
machine in the world, cuts six feel in reap
ing, (our feet four inches in mowing, and
is very simple and handy in raising or low
ering ihe cutter bar in grass and grain.
They have the J. I. Case Sweepstake
Separators with Woodbury Mounted Power,
Climax Power nnd Pitts or Carey Power
manufactured at Racine, Wis. This
thresher has more sales by many hundreds
each year than any other machine made
in the United States, because it will do
more and better work, thus making it a
desirable and profitable one for the farm
ers and also for the man who owns the
machine. This thresher with Woodbury
power also took the first premium at the
State Fair last fall.
This firm has the largest supply of ex
tras for all of their machinery that is kept
in Northern Minnesota, ascan be seen by
going in and looking on their shelves and
through the house. It is best far the
farmer to buy a machine where he can got
repairs and extras for it when needed.
The business of the firm is doubling it
self each year, having been started three
years ago, until now it is acknowledg
ed to be the leading bouse in the agiicul
tural business of Upper Minnesota. Their
large warehouse is crowded now with ma
chines ordered by the farmers for this
year, and as they never get on an over
stock of the standard machines, orders
should be given at. once, so as to secure
them to be delivered in time for use.

At Clear Lake, Sherborne Co., Minn.,
on the 18th last., of consumption, Mrs.
MAST GATES, wife of Alonso Gates, aged
85 years.
The deceased was a native of Ashtabula
county, in the State of Ohio, and had been
a resident of this State for the past thir
teen years. She was a member ot the
Methodist Episoopal church, and died as
she had lived, a devoted Christian. The
funeral services were conducted by theThey
Rev. Mr. Rork, of Clearwater, and herIrregularites,
body was then taken to Winona, where she
formerly resided, for burial. In the death
of Mrs. Gates the oommunity suffers a rare
loss, and those who knew her beet feel It
most. Her life was a oareful compilation
of those virtues largely peculiar to wo|
man's sphere, and she never made exhibit
of them save in the distance of domestic
retirement. Always true-hearted and af
fectionate, she lived in the midst of friends
who will long cherish her memory. When
the Great Father oalled at her frontier
home to summon her to Himself, He found
her ready and waiting to obey the sum
mons. Her faith equaled the occasion.
She could say in the language of another
