—David Cleveland and wife were re
minded that last Saturday evening was
the twenty-fifth anniversary of their
marriage—their silver wedding. A large
concourse of friends assembled to do
honor to the occasion. The ladies of the
relief corps of the grand army presented
Mrs. Cleveland with a lieautiful silver
and crystal fruit basket, and there were
a number of other very beautiful gifts.
The evening was heartily enjoyed by all
present, the completeness of the surprise
adding zest,
Burglars did a neat piece of profes
sional work for Wash McNeicc at Little
Sauk on Monday night. They entered
the mill office, wheeled the safe out into
the mdl, drilledit, and applied dynamite.
The explosion not only tore off the door,
but drove it against a post in the build
ing with sufficient force to knock it
down,‘wreck a partition and threw the
door clean out of the mill. There was
no money in the safe, but the theives
carried away some notes and papers of
no value to them.
—A gentleman stepped into the ticket
office of the Great Northern road a few
days since, and questioned Agent Norris
very closely relativeto tickets to various
points, and finally remarked, “Haven’t
I seen you somewhere before? Didn’t
you formerly’ live in Milwaukee?” Then
ic was that Mr. Norris recognized in his
questioner, a brother whom he had not
seen for sixteen years—Mathew Norris,
who lives in Rapid City, S. D. He had
been to the world’s fair, and came up
here on a visit for a few days.
—An alarm of fire about two o’clock
Tuesday morning brought the fire de
partment out in force with considerable
promptness. Fire was discovered in the
old Apfeld barn in the center of the block
bounded by Third, Main, Fourth and
Oak-sts., in the very heart of the busi
ness portion of the city. There is con
s'derable loose hay and some in bales in
the old tinder box, and it is supposed
the fire was the result of the careless use
of matches by tramps who were sleeping
in the barn. The promptness ot the de
partment and its well directed efforts
alone saved the city from a serious con
flagration.
The remains of Miss Ethel Coons, who
died at Austin, this state, of consump
tion, arrived here Tuesday for interment.
Miss Ethel Coons, aged 16 years, is a
daughter of Mrs. lane B. Coons, a
former resident of Osakis, and is a sister
of Mrs. 0. 0. Johnson of this township.
Funeral services were held from the M.
E. church on Tuesday at 2 P. M., Rev. F.
W. Hart, pastor of the M. E. church at
Sauk Centre, officiating. Interment was
made in the Reinhart cemetery by the'
side of the father and a brother of the
deceased. The relatives of the departed
have the condolences of a host of Osakis
and Sauk Centre friehds.—[Review,
—T. W. Mann and wife had been mar
ried ten years on Wednesday last, and
their numerous friends reminded them of
it most pleasantly. It was one of those
surprises which is complete enough to
take the breath away. About nine
o’clock fifty or more made a descent
upon their home and took possession.
The party looked as though they were
just returning from a looted tinshop—
bringing with them a stock that for
utility was beyond criticism. .Music,
games an 1 conversation were the pleas
ant features of the evening. Refresh
ments were brought by the invaders,
and everything went as merry as the
marriage bells of ten years ago. It was
a pretty compliment worthily bestowed.
The Northern Pacific railroad has just
put into effect a series of low round trip
rates to Pacific coast points. These
California tickets are good until April
30th, 1894, and are good for stopover
under certain conditions. These rates
will enable those desiring to do so to
spend the winter in southern California
or to visit the mid-winter fair to be held
at San Francisco. This latter event will
undoubtedly be second only to the
world’s fair just closed, and will repay
a visit, as it will exhibit the resources
and capabilities of California. St. Paul,
Minneapolis and Duluth to North Pacific
coast points und return, $65.50; to San
Francisco and return to Missouri river,
$80.20; to Los Angeles and return to

A Threatening Fire.
One of the most dangerous and threat
ening fires which ever occurred in this
city broke out about four o’clock this,
Thursday morning, in the old livery
barn owned by R. 0. Hall and occupied
by Kerneghan & Meigs, of the city
omnibus and dray line. About four
o’clock the alarm was sounded, and even
then the barn was enwrapped in flames,
beyond all hope of salvation, but the
gallant firemen, who responded with the
utmost promptness, bent,every energy to
.laving the adjacent property. The barn
was an enormous structure, 48x60 feet
with an addition 16x85 feet, extending
backward into the very heart of the
block in the rear of and close to the
business houses on Main-st. The build
ing was erected twenty-five years ago,
add was originally used as a stage barn.
Its frame was ot heavy sound timbers,
and it was just the food tor flames to
fatten on. The heat was intense, and
the air was filled with great sparks and
blazing fragments of shingles and siding.
Fortunately there was no’wind, and the
sparks were not carried to any distance.
The origin of the fire was incendiary
beyond question, and the matter will be
investigated to the bottom, and it is
believed that there is substantial founda
tion to work upon. There is a set
determination not to let the matter rest
until every clue is worked out to the end.
William Meigs, one of the proprietors
of the omnibus line slept in the office of
the stable, and was awakened by the
breaking of glass by the heat, and when
he opened the door into the barn the
structure was full of fire. He managed
to save the omnibus and one wagon,
but was driven out before he could reach
the stables were the horses were. The
firm had five horses in the stables, and
Geo. R. Whitney had four horses and a
team of mules which he was keeping in
the barn, all of which were burned. In
addition to the five horses, Kerneghan
& Meigs lose two drays, three sets of
harness, ten tons of hay, a quantity of
feed, blankets, etc., valued at $650 at a
conservative estimate, upon which there
was insurance of about $250. Mr.
Whitney estimates his losses, part of
which is borne by the Standard Bank of
Minneapolis for which he is doing busi
ness, at SBOO upon which there is no
insurance.
The building was insured for S2OOO, as
follows:
Milwaukee Mechanics SIOOO
Security of New Haven 500
Fireman's Fund 500
That this exceeds the loss is admitted.
Mr. Hall recently put on SSOO insurance
under the misapprehension that there
was but SIOOO on it. He had mislaid
one policy for SSOO, and in looking over
his insurance thought he had but the
one policy in force.
A barn belonging to Louis Kroessin in
the rear of his shop, was partially de
stroyed. His three horses weie gotten
out without injury. He had no insur
ance, although holding a policy in a
defunct company.
The remains of the horses burned to
death in the fire presented a horrible
appearance. They should be removed
as soon as possible in the interest of
health.
This fire following so closely upon the
one in the old Apfeld byrn not only leads
color to the suspiscion of incendiarism,
but giyes additional light to the subject.
A subscription paper circulated for the
benefit of Kerneghan & Meigs has met
with generous response, and it is prob
able that S3OO will be given. They are
worthy, industrious and accommodating
voung men, and deserving of this con
sideration.
R. O. Hall, the owner of the building,
is visiting friends in St. Paul, his wife
being with him.
A Knightly Gathering.
Fidelity Lodge No. 120, Knights of
Pythias, held a delightful reception on
Monday evening last in honor of the
official visit of the Grand Chancellor of
the State, Fred Wheaton of St. Paul.
Members of the order and their friends,
both ladies and gentlemen, to the num
ber of more thana hundred assembled
at Pythian hall, and while no elaborate
program had been prepared, yet an
enjoyable evening was passed.
Alter a ‘Song of Welcome’ by the Male
Quartette, the grand chancellor was
introduced by Chancellor Commander
Miner in a few well chosen words, to
which a pleasant response was made.
He briefly reviewed rhe remarkable
growth and progress of the order, and
paid an exalted compliment to Fidelity
lodge, congratulating it upon its enthu
siasm and prosperity. It was a pleasure
for him to visit so active and united a
body of brethren in his official capacity.
He gallantly referred to the ladies pres
ent, and assured the Knights that it was
one of the special knightly duties and
privileges to cultivate thejr good will
and co-operation. Success lay along
such course of action. In conclusion he
thanked the lodge for its cordial recep
tion of him, but incidentally remarked
that he was of the opinion that the com
pliment was really intended for Acting
Grand Master at Arms Charles Dixon,
whom, he observed, was present.
Rev. F. W. Hart, in behalf of the lodge,
responded to the grand chancellor. It
gave him pleasuee to welcome the grand
officer upon this occasion. Personally
he was not only proud of his own
Knighthood, but proud of Fidelity
lodge. The order was doing a grand
work, and its principles were of an
exalted character,
Charles Dixon was called for, and in
arising remarked that he was not there
to divide the honors with the Grand
Chancellor, for whom this reception was
given—he was there merely to take care
of that officer, and while he would be
only too glad to feel that he shared in
in this cordial reception, yet he disa
vowed any proprietary interest. He
took great pleasure in meeting with
Fidelity lodge, proud of its members,
and took as much interest in the welfare
of this lodge as though he was one of its
He said the Knights of
Pythias was a strong fraternal organi
zation, displaying to the world a shield
upon which was inscribed the motto
'‘Friendship, Charity and Benevolence,”
and thus banded together they were
doing a uoble work in aiding and pro
tecting each other. Nor was tbeir work
confined to the wearers of the shield, hut
i’ts protecting shadow covered every
wife, mother, daughter and sister of
every wearer of the shield. Its beneficent
work was most apparent, perhaps, in
■ the dark days of distress—then it is that
its shield and its motto had the deepest
; meaning.
Rev. J F. Hamilton, who was present
as a guest, was called for and paid a
high compliment to the order. He was
glad to be present and bear testimony
to the beneficent acts and influence of
the great benevolent orders. The
Knights of Pythias were doing their
share in the great field of ameliorating
suffering, working for the good of hu
manity at large. He said that these
eiders were even more active than the
churches in this matter of practical
charity. That the fraternal feeling was,
as a rule, stronger than among members
of church organizations, and they gave
even more freely for alleviating suffering
and distress. It would be well if the
religious bodies would emulate the spirit
of fraternity and mutual assistance dis
played by these brotherhoods. The
world at large has no conception of the
vast amount of good accomplished by
these orders, and if a tenth part were
known he was sure that the shield of the
Knights of Pythias, the three links of
the Odd Fellows and the square and
compasses of the Masons would be
esteemed as badges of honor and recom
mendations ot character to every true
member who wears them.
The male quartette rendered a fine
selection, and music by the Kinnamon
orchestra was interspersed throughout
the program. Refreshments were served,
to which ample justice was done by the
assembled Knights and their guests.
The reception room was cleared and
dancing to excellent music was indulged
in for a couple of hours, Burke DeGroat
acting as prompter. The occasion was
one long to be remembered by all who
were present as one of the pleasantest
social events of the season. **
Pythian hall is in the Smith building,
corner Main and Third-sts., and beside
the lodge room proper has an ante room
and large reception room, all beautifully
furnished, decorated and carpeted. It is
thoroughly equipped, and the members
of the lodge have abundant reason to be
proud of their fraternal home. Although
young, the lodge is prospering and is
rapidly increasing in desirable member
ship.

University Extension.
Prof. Woodley, president of the liter
ary association, has taken rFdeep inter
est in procuring a Course oi lectures in
this city this winter, and he met with
encouraging success. Already nearly
enough course tickets liavC been sub
scribed for to assure success. The lec
tures will be of a high order, instructive
and interesting—six in the course—and
no one can afford to miss them. As the
lectures will be held at intervals of two
weeks, it is suggested that the liter
ary association meet on the alternate
weeks for the purpose of discussing the
topics suggested by the pn ceding lecture.
In this way it is felt that the best results
can be accomplished. Such discussions
would be-fruitful of great good to all—
those who participate and those Who
listen. A meeting of the association will
be called soon to take this and other
l matters under advisement. Meantime,
do not fail to secure tickets for the
lectures. “•
