Yesterday afternoon A. P. Mcln tyre sold his farm of 160 acres to Andrew Johnson ofHancock Mich., for $3,000 cash. We are going to have a boss fourth of July celebration, fire works and dance,, and all the neigh bors are invited to attend. A sort of earthquake was felt by the settlers to the north-east of town and the shocks were distinct ly felt at Mr. Bullis' place. Mr. F. Kruger of Manitowoc, is looking the ground over, in person, with a view to establishing a much needed grist and flouring mill. Elsewhere we publish a card of Ed. Slee regarding the placing of nets, dams and other obstructions in the river, thereby impeding the fish from ascending the stream. This is against the law and we are much surprised that such a man as Mr. Palmer should maintain an ob struction of this kind, and we areand still more surprised to hear from reliable sources that he refuses to allow people the privilege of fish ing on his place. ^n^ Maj. Buchannan has left the rail road employ, and is now throwing hay-seed &\\ over himself. Tije SHEAF hopes that Dan will do well. Earnest Walker and wife, of Ed na son-in-law and daughter of J. P. Nelson are visiting their relatives and friends in this place. The gen tleman is manager of the famous Lockhardt farm near Edna. An employe of Mr. Palmer's was seriously mangled and hurt by a harrow yesterday. It seems from the man's description that jj-is team ran away and dragged the harrow over him. AJ. Nelson found him and took him to Mr. Palmer's where he is receiving th best attention. The various farms outlying near this place the Pembina, Painter, Woodward, March & Spaulding, Elmwood, and lots of others, whose names we do not know, areGordially invited to send in a delegation to attend the meeting on Saturday next at 7:30 p.m. in Judge Nelson's office, to make arrangements for the Calithumpian parade on the fourth of July. B. Sykes of London, England is one of the latest comers. He hassuch bought a number of sections (9 or 10 in all) and will divide his whole purchase inpo 160 acre farms, with a house on each quarter section. Mr. A. P. Mclntyre is the superin tendent and is now engaged with a large number of tgams in breaking 60 acres on each 160. These farms will bo more valuable to Warren and the county, than a large farm, because Mr. Sykes will have an ac tual settler on each quarter section. The second meeting of the fourth of July folks was held last evening in Judge Nelson's office and was largely attended. The reports of the subscription and programme committees were received. A num ber of other committees were ap pointed and R. Mentzer was elected President of the day, Eugene Dady marshal. The full list of committees will be published next week, and al house th f}ne programmew whichrhas been arranged. Suffice it fo the present, too haye a QrerJ- an say that we are going to tinie an body in the county to come and enjoy the day with us. here TTlie Minneapolis Fair. This exhibition will be held in Minneapolis, Sept. 5, 6, T, 8 and 9, a period of five days, and like its predecessors will be under the able management of W. S. King, or "Bill King" as the average Minne sotian familiarly calls him. The premium list is out, and of itself is like everything that comes from the Minneapolis Tribune officea first class -affair. The list of premi um is much larger than last year and has been revised and corrected the attractions are more varied, numerous and better than hereto fore and the big show, which has been patronized by thousands in past years, is to be bigger and bet ter than ever before. We shall from time to time publish some of the special attractions which will appear at this greatest of wes tern fairs. Chas. H. Clarke is the secretary of the association and he will furnish all necessary informa tion from the secretary's office in Minneapolis. Chas. A. Davis, the Crookston "multum in parvo" man, is constantly adding to his stock of fruits, confectionery, flowers, sewing ma chine's, organs, stationery, magazines, etc., he means to make hie place of businesfethe most attractive in town. Besides when you get off from the cars ,it is but a few steps to his store and when there you can get a drink of his ice cold soda, which is warranted to "'cool" in hottest weather. WARREN, MABSHML COUNTY, MINNESOTA", JUNE 15, 1831. $2.00 tER YEAB, People who travel between St. Paul, Minneapolis and Chicago and wis'h for every comfort and con venience should purchase their tickets over the St. Paul and Chicago Through line. It is a first-class line in every partic ular, and is the only line between St. 'Paul, Minneapolis and Chicago that runs these celebrated Pullman palace /sleeping cars. Jt is the on ly line between St. Paul, MJnnapo-. lis, and Chicago that has a smok ing compartment in sleeping cars especially for the accommodation of sleeping car passengers, thus avoiding the disagreeable changes frp|a one car to-another, that per sons indulging in the habit of smok ing1 meet with in traveling over other lines. It is also the only line to and from Chicago running in connection with the Northern Pa cific, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Man itolja, and St. Paul & Duluth Rail ways that uses the same depot in St. -Paul, and by which passengers from the Great North-West going to Chicago and the east avoi4 om mbjis transfer at St. Paul, all of whi'dh facts are worth remember ing! arid if you wish to travel over the? popular line, purchase only tickets as take over the St. Paul Chicago through line, com posed of th# Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Omaha and Chicago & Nort]i-Western Railways. The Pioneer Press has the following re garding the new and eleg&at palace sleeping coaches lately put in ser-ple vice "TJie title of'palaces on wheels' fitly char acterizes-the new sleeping coaches just finish ed by the Pullman Palace Car Company for the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Rail wayJ-^There are to be five of these elegant 'sl?e^^%^clil*"olii"tliTline' ""aTuttwri of'Them arc already in service between St. Paul and Chicago, having arrived in St. Pnul during the past week. They will all be similar in general design, and marvels of substantial construc tion and elegance of finish. President Pull man, of the famous company which bears his name, told the officers of the Chicago, St, Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Railway some months ago that he intended to furnish them the finest "sleepers ever seen on any road, East or West. That his promises have been more than fulfilled was easily to be seen on examin ation of the first two. They are called the Dunlap and the Stanwood, and have challenged the admiration of all who have beheld them. The first noticeable novel feature about the cars is their unusual length, being seventy-two feet long, or about twelve feet longer than the sleepers now in general use, giving them, with their exterior dark finish and elaborate ornamentation in gilt, a decidedly regal appear ance. Mr. R. A. Whitney of Tamarac, is the "Mac both" of Marshall county that is, he seems to bear a charmed life. A short time ago his team ran away with him while returning home and mixed him up with a sulky plow and a lot of groceries in a promiscuous style. After se curing the team he proceeded home and at tempted to un-harness them, and while stoop ing to pick up one of the "tugs" was kicked, by one of the horses, in the region devoted to commissary receipts, otherwise known as the stomach. For a time the injury was eonsk ered serious, but he is now out of danger. Heport of SiOnisa. ScSaaol at Arsryle, for IWonfili Entiling- JTuse *J 1881. Number of scholars enrolled, 2(5.

It seems as if fishing was prohib ited at Warren. Men build dams below the town and then order peo off their land when they go down as far as fish can ascend. The laws of Minnesota forbid the erecting of dams or putting in of fish traps to prevent fish from as cending a stream, and all offending against'sii^Ir" provisSions will be dealt with to the extent of the law.
