Every one has a will and a mind to think for himself, yet many will go about hacking aud coughing until a friend recommends Dr. Bull's Cough Svrup for that cough. - X Senator Peterson is chairman of the committee on Tree Culture. He is also on the committees of Agriculture, Rail- roads and Indian Affairs. No man knows what a ministering an- gel his wife is until he comes home one clay, suffering with a dreadful cold and she happens to have a bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup in the house. H. H. Young, State .immigration a- gent, who has returned from the New Orleans Exposition, pronounces it a suc- cess, and claims that visitors will have no difficulty in securing board at rea- sonable rates. « Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is recommend- ed by physicians of the greatest eminence on both sides of the Atlantic, as the most reliable remedy for colds and coughs, and all pulmonary disorder. It affords prompt relief in every case. No family should ever be without it. The new county otliceis a&auiiieu their official duties last Wednesday.' - •• John Neumann has fresh fish for sale, caught in the Mississippi near Winona.

Admis^on only 25 cts including the social hop. During Marshal Gommel's illness our young folks are having lots of fun coast- ing down Centre street. When the Marshal is around the coasters sudden- ly disappear. W. A. Hubbard succeeds John Grimmer as b>ok keeper in Mr. &. D. Petei son's office Mr. Hubbaid is a pleasant gentleman, and not unknown to Mr. Peterson's many customers. The St Peter Herald tells of a man who never took a paper in his life. He lives twelve miles from St. Peter, is 65 Years old, has seven dogs and thirteen children, and thinks that General Jack- son is still president. 'the Musen Scehne will give a con- cert and hop in Union Hall next Sun- day evening. This society has been before the public on several occasions and needs no intioduction at our hands. The coming enteitainment will be first-class in every particular. See the programme in anothej col- umn. Frank L. Randall of this city was the Democratic caucus nominee for post- master of the House of Representatives. As 24Demociats can't outvote 79 Re- publicans, Frank didn't succeed in get- ting there, but, to his credit be it said, he received more votes in the House than any of the other Democratic nom- inees. Theo. Clone has leceived a large stock of lur coats, fur caps and over- coats, all kinds and styles of men's clothing, underwear, ladies dress goods cloaks, dollmans, etc., etc. Having bought in eastern maikets. lor CASH, lie is in .i position to offer his goods at the very lowest prices. Anyone looking for bai gains should not fail to coll on Mr. Crone. His motto is quick sale and small profits. O./ii i luigel me tua&queraue at JLurn- er Hall one week from Saturday. It is the first of the season and should be well attended. Wild geese were seen in the vicinity of W. H. Morgan's cornfield,, near Tracy, on Monday of last week. They must have been frozen stiff, like the blaze of Todd's candle. Sunday evening, while danciug, at Mr. Dietz's house in Milford, John Steinmetz fell, breaking his leg about three inches above the ankle. Dr. Ber- ry reduced the fracture and reports the patient doing well. «. Ex. Vice President Schuyler Colfax died at Mankato, in the Union De- pot at 10.35 a. m yesterday, while wait- ing for the train to v start for Omaha. Schuyler Colfax was the seventeenth Vice-President of the United States un- der Ulysses L. Grant. In diawing lots for seats in the House of Representatives Mr. Woi. bkuiner, ot "Sleepy Eye," secured first choice. He selected the third seat back on the first row to the right of the aisle. John G, Baasen of Ramsey county, brother of Col. Francis Baasen of this city, was complim ented by the Democrats of the House of Represen- tatives with their votes for Sergeant- at-arms. John would have made a good officer, but his politics were against him. MARRIED—At the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Newhart, in this city, Thurs- day, January 8, 1885, by Rev. Mr. Mowery, Mr. H. Ross and Miss Ruth M. Parker. The bride is a sister of Mrs. Newhart and the bridegroom is Mr. C. H. Ross' father. Only relatives of the contracting parties witnessed the mar- ruge ceremony. The happy couple started for New Orleans the same even. in g- Next Ftiday the editors of South- western Minnesota will meet in this city tor the put pose ol forming a per- manent organization and feathering th> interests of the crafts in geneial. It is sinceiely hoped that the meeting will be better attended than the one recently held at Tracy. The Tracy Trumpet learns that a portion of a window in Van Dusen's elevator at Walnut Grove was sawed out during the night, and next morn- ing the manager of the concern, Elias Bedal, found himself short over one hundred dollar's worth of fur and skin. Miss Levi of Mankato, who commit- ted suicide on the night of Jan. 3rd, was no doubt known to many of our Sleepy E\e reader», as she lived in that village during the winter of 1882-3. Miss Levi is the girl whom Carl Winterer at- tempted to shoot, nearly two years ago, on account of the refusal of her parents to allow her to man y him, and the sui- cide was no doubt the result of des- pondency over that love affair. The ingredients entering into compo- sition of Mishler's Herb Bitters include the purest and most wholesome herbs, from which the medicine derives its name, and which are compounded after the best scientific methods. Dr. Joseph G. Lane, a Chicago physician of high standing, after thoroughly testing the Bitters, writes that he intends using it regularly in hi3 practice, having tried it with the most gratifying results in dis- eases of the kidnevs. The election of officers of Co. A, held Dec. 17, has been declared void by Judge Advocate General Hicks, on the ground that two members of the com- pany did not receive preliminary notice of the company meeting. Another elec- tion has been called for Wednesday e- vening, 21st inst. ^ Health is impossible when the blood is impure, thick, and sluggish, or when it is thin and impoverished. Under such conditions, boils, pimples, head- aches, neuralgia, rheumatism, and one disease after another is developed. Take Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and it will make the blood pure, rich, warm, and vita- lizing. Services at the Congregational church everySunday at 10} a. m. and at 7} p. m., the latter is usually a lec- ture. Subject of lecture next Sunday evening—Fire Arms—Sunday school at 2} p. m. Mrs. C. H. Ross, Superin- tendent. All are welcome. C. MOWERY, Pastor. The following is one of Postmaster General Hatton's latest orders to post- masters: "Unclaimed letters, enclosed in en- velopes upon which hotel cards are printed should not be returned to the mailing office unless such letters have written or printed thereon the "Return to" in additiou to the hotel card. The- proprietors of hotels should omit the usual return requests and the guests us- ing such envelopes should be careful to designate what disposition should be made of the letters sent in them in case hey cannot be delivered. When the weather is fair, farmers coming to this city with their teams find considerable difficulty in passing through our streats without having their sleighs captured by a lot of young ur- chins, who are bent on stealing a ride. The little chaps occasionally cluster a- round a sleigh in such numbers that "hanging on" room is at a premium. In the scramble to catch on accidents are not unfrequent, though so far noth- ing serious has occured. Last Friday a boy named Paul Friederich was thrown under a sieigh and dragged nearly a block before the team could be stopped, but, strange to say, escaped with a few slight bruises. Boys, stop this practice before some of you get maimed for life. We see by an exchange that Lieut. O. S. Ch de of the late K company 2nd Regiment M. N. G., of Little Falls, will petition the legislature to appro- priate something for his relief on ac- count of injuries leceived at the New Ulm sham battle in 1883, whereby he lost the sight of his right eye. Lieut. Clyde is a veteran of the late Avar. Our New Ulm boys-located in Tracy are coming to the front in grand style. W. O. Musscr was last week elected president of the board of the village council, and H. F. Seiter was elected one of the trustees. John Lloyd, a former resident of Butternut Valley, was elect- ed one of the justices. All this goes to show that our boys are treading the p ith of nghtiousness. Tiacy Ti umpet:—Mr. Ftank Burg, Jr., of New Ulm, entered this office Wednesday and diopped a box of "Blizzaid" cigais with the compli- ments of his father. The cigars smart under the odium of a misnomer for unlike the dreaded pandemonium of air and snow, from which they take their nanif, they are mild fla- grant and enjoyable. Thanks, Mr. Uurg and may the "Blizzards" of your pioduction never diminish. At a meeting of the Silver Cornet Band held last Monday evening the fol- lowing officers were elected for the en- suing year: Leader, Jos. Galles. Assistant Leader, Otto Seiter. President, Tory Oleson. Secretary, Wm. Seiter. Treasurer, Gust. Fischer. Company A, 2nu Regt. M. N. G., held its annual meeting on Tuesday evening, 6th inst. The following of- ficers were elected for the ensuing year: C. G. Holmberg, President, W. A, Hubbaid, Vice President. Louis Krook, Secretary. Max J. Rosskoph, Treasurer. Sergt. Major Frank L. Randall, Sergt. Max J Rosskopf, and Corp'l. C. G. Holmberg were elected dele- gates to the Minn. National Guard Association convention, which meets at Minneapolis to-day. —Aiiorney General Haun, in reply to an inquiry from Superintendent Kiehle, holds that there is but one le- gal holiday recognized by the legisla- ture, and that one is Washington's birthday. A runaway team made things lively in lower part of town, last Saturday evening. The cutter was completely wrecked in front of Pfenninger's resi- dence and the occupants were unceri- momously landed on the sidewalk. The driver was considerably injured about the head and face. Eucklen 8 Arnioa Salvo The best salve in the world for Cuts, Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt Rheum, Fever Sores, Tetter, chapped Hands, Chilblains, Corns, and all Skin Erup- tions, and positively cures Files, or no pay required. It is guaranteed to give perfect satisfaction, or money refund- ed. Price 25 cents per box. Sold by C. L. Boos. For Diphtheria, To give publicity to what is supposed to be an excellent preventive, and also a eure for diphtheria, is now in order. Sulphur, which is acknowledged to be a reliable" agent in destroying disease geims of auy kind, on man, beast or vegetation, is fused exclusively, and a- lone, in English hospitals, in the treat- ment of all kinds of diphtheretic attacks. It is also prescribed now by the leading physicians of; the United States, with great success, and during the prevalence of the scourge in this country, it should be strongly recommended for use in guarding against the disease as also in the treatmeant of all who are stricken down. Dissolve in water, and use as a gargle, it will afford great, ' and al- most instant relief. If the patient is too young to be able to'gargle, the sulphur should be blown into the throat, [through a hollow]*tube.fj A common straw, or glass, will answer the purpose/admir- ably. It has accomplished a a cure in 99 cases, put of 100, Two hundred and ninety-four votes were cast at the recent village election in Sleepy Eye. Low and high license were the issues, and low license carried the day. The following ticket was elected: J. P. Bertrand, President of the council. William Hill, Hans Magenson, William Miller, F. Koehne. John Black, I. Gallagher, The park proposition vote of 94 to 59. The Trumpet thus notices the election of H. F. Seiter, a former New Ulm boy, as a trustee of the- village of Tracy: "H. F. Seiter ia a barber, who assures us that the excitement over the report, that he would try to have his shop made the official shop, and making it a fineable offense for people to shave el- sewhere, is useless, as the report is false. Ho is ready to pledge himself against any attempt at legislation in favor of his own shop or raisins the price of shaving. He only insists that people shant kick if they get lather in their mouths or an ear hacked off." What a Mississippi Pilot Says. Capt. D. M. Riggs, who is well known at New Orleans and along the Mississippi river, says, "I have been suffering from dyspepsia for the past five years, and from broken rest, by se- vere pains irrrhe bowels and kidneys. I tried every medicine recommended for these diseases, without success. At last I used a bottle of Brown's Iron Bitters, which proved a perfect success in my case." It cures all liver, kidney and malarial diseases. Singular Fatality. Lyon County News: Last Saturday the little son of Mr. and Mrs. James Mills died, at the age of one year and three months. On the Saturday morning previous the little fellow fell from a chair to the floor, and bit his tongue very slightly. The wound continued to bleed slowly, des- pite the mother's efforts to stop it, and on Monday the pareuts took the child to town, and Dr. Parsons attended it, but could not succeed in stopping' per- manently the flow of blood, owing to the difficulty of one so young being con- trolled. On Wednesday the child ap- peared to have lost nearly all its blood, and everything presented to the stomach was immediately expelled. From this time it sank quietly and without a struggle passed away in just a week from the time of the injury. The wound was no larger than the head of a pin, and the bleeding was slow. Grading WheaS Northwestern Miller: "There is a great amount of smut in wheat this j ear,"said Chief Inspec- tor Maxfiield. "There seems to be no effort by the farmers to avoid sowing smutty wheat, or to kill the smut, which they can easily do by soaking the seed in a vitriol solution. The remedy is cheap, harmless and certain, yet they will not employ it. The result you can see by following our inspec- tors for a da) r . As soon as they open a car they snuff vigorously. A very lit- tle smut will give off a plain scent after the car has been closed a few days, and if there is the least odor, the inspec- tor says: *We must look for smut in this car.' He finds it with ease, and wheat which, if not diseased, would grade No 1 or No. 2 hard, instantly goes on record as 'rejected' or condem- ned,'according to the amount of smut in it, and must be sold by sample. It cannot grade higher than rejected, yet when sold it mav bring a price equal to good No. 1 or No. 2 soft, though if we graded it that high we should soon find our official heads in the basket. I think as much hard wheat was raised this year as last, but the increase in acreage was nearly sown to soft wheat, hence the large percentage of grain that grades below 2 hard.

Mr. S. Child, Manager of the West-End 'Bus. Company, Aukland, New Zealand, states in the Daily Herald of that city, as follows: We have much pleasure in bearing testimony to efficacy of St. Jacobs Oil. Its success has been partic- ularly marked in one case of lameness, that of very valuable horse suffering from severe sprain of the back sinews, so severe as to defy the usual remedies. Other remedies having failed, we were induced to try St. Jacobs Oil and after using it for a few days, the lameness, which was ^almost chronic, entirely disappeared, and the horse has since stood constant work. We have also nsed the Oil most successfully for bruis- es. It is a remedy that should be at hand in every stable. >ct » We must have been on good terms with the weather clerk last week, wea- ther was really mild but things have changed since on Sunday nigtit mercu- ry was again forced down to 24 degrees below zero. We learn that Mrs. J. J. Meighan, a prominent and successful teacher of this town was suddenly taken ill, medical aid was summoned and latter reports state that she is convales- cing. We wish her a speedy recovery. The supervisors of this town contem- plate building another bridge on the New Ulm and Redwood road near Mr. F. Essig's place. The material of said bridge will be of Redstone stone, which are already, on the ground. In buil- ding stone bridges the supervisors take a right step in the right direction. Mr. Eduard Hensel will build a new house on his farm in Milford next spring, material is partly on the ground. Mr. Hensel is a well to do farmer and the house he will put up will no doubt be a costly one. ^Building operations have been carried on quite lively during the past. two years, and our town shows up, quite a number of costly buildings. Mr. C.« Hansmg values his house and barn at $3.2,00; Mr. Geo. Baker estimates the cost of his house at $2,000; Mr. Leh- man at $1,600; Mr. Geske at $800; etc. In spite of low wheat price our town seems to prosper. Mr. Carl Lamser, had the misfortune of losing a valuable horse in the latter part of last week, it is indeed a bad thing for him to overcome, as his fin- ancial circumstances are somewhat limited. A stranger of the feminine gender took board and lodgings at Mr. J. Krieser ot this town on the 2d inst. John says she behaves so well that has already become fond of her and is glad to say >that all is well. s - Hay seems to be no scarce 'article.

Wheat is still on the rise. Mrs. Dr. Hitchcock was the recipient of a beautiful gold watch on Christmas. Mr. H. H. Thompkinsleft on Wednes- day last for Northfield, Minn., where he will again attend college. A watchmaker and jeweler has tem- porarily located at this place. Now is the time 4 to have your "turnips" put in running order. The Altermatt boys have erected a new building to be used by them for a feed-mill. " Miss Mira Sanford of Bashaw spent a few days last week with relatives in this town. Adolph Altermatt left last week for Mankato where he will take a course of studies in book-keeping. Dr. Hitchcock informs us that the son of Mr. Isaacson whose leg was broken a short time ago is improvino p very fast Our tax-payera ought not to forget that the county treasurer will be at this place Friday and Saturday. The recently elected members of our village council entered upon their duties last Wednesday. The Springfield Cleveland band will give a concert and ball at Gamble's hall on the evening of the 16th inst. Ad- mission 25ek>. ^ ^^^ NOTICE OF ASSIGNMENT. - ^ At a meeting of the village council held on Wednesday last the liquor license for the ensuing year was fixed at one hundred and fifty dollars. The "January thaw" has rendered good sleighing a thing of the past Rev. Kidder has been'spending a week at Sleepy Eye, co-operating with Rev. J. Watson. The next meeting of Phillip Cntland Post No. 109 G. A. R. will be'held on the Friday preceding;the day on which their meeting was to be held. This change was occasioned by the comman- der in order to make it more conveni- ent for those who wish to engage in the hop, in the evening. Rev. W. A. Ticknor and wife are spending a few days with friends in the vicinity of Lamberton. Mr. N. E. Allen returned on Friday afternoon, from his holiday ramble in the eastern part ofJ the state. Here- ports "everything lovely" in the vicin- ity of Goodhue county. Miss Lena Henle of Milford and Mrs. Louisa Moes of Sleepy Eye will assist the Springfield Cleveland band with vocal and instrumental music, at the concert on the 16th inst. Don't fail to attend. Mr. A. Roberts and Mr. F. Black-*, man of Selma, Cottonwood Co. were in town last week. Mr. M. Huiras was taken suddenly ill on Thursday of last week, and for Several hours his recovery seemed very doubtful. Drs. Sullivan and Hitchcock of this place, and Dr. Well- come of Sleepy Eye were called for con- sultation. On Friday morning his con- dition was reported much better, and we are pleased to note that he is fast improving, and will, we hope, in a few days be up and out again. The new councilmen at a meeting held last week expressed in language that certainly cannot be misunderstood, their determination to have the village ordinances complied with. Our Vil lage Marshal was instructed to make complaint, at once, against any person or persons who fail to comply with such ordinances; and he was assured that his prompt action in such cases, would re- ceive the support of the entire council. This action of thecouncilmen is certainly commendable, and will, without doubt, meet the approval of every citizen in the village. The Springfield villago.election was held on the 9th inst The contest for officers was remarkably exciting, there being three candidates for the office of President of the council, and twelve candidates for village trustees. The ballots being found to bo one in excess of the number of voters the judges pro- ceeded, by the method prescribed by law, to draw one from the ballot-box. which resulted in a tie between Mr. C Warneke and Mr. J- J. Ray for village president. The following is a list of the officers elected : President of the coun- cil, J. J. Ray; Trustees' P. P. Alter- matt, H. Knudson, P. Mc. Keever; Re- corder. M. C. Robertson; Treasurer, Peter Sist; Justices, M. Huiras and T. A. Wilson. J W1LU NDT CARRY W OTHEr^ Smart Business Man: "No sir; no watch but the Water bury for me I claim to know a good thing when I get hold of't, I do. I would have been in the poor house long ago if my own judgment of the \nlueof things hadn't carried me triumphantly around a good many sharp cor ners I never let big names or big prices for an} thing fool mc a bit as to their real value I know this Waterbury keeps just as good time as the $500 Jorgcneon my partner cairies, so that ends the matter. The only thing I carry a watch lor is to keep time. This does it just as well as the best natch made, and lam consequently $490 ahead of my ,»artnei That's business— that's mc, e\erytime. We have made arrangements with the manufacturers which enable us to offer the celebrated Waterbury watch as a premium for subscribers. For some time past publishers of the large dailies and weeklies in the metropoli tan cities have been offering these- watches with great success. The watch, although cheap, has the repu-' tation of being a good time keeper. Several gentlemen in this city have earned these watches for a number of years, and assure us tl.at they keep correct time. Any person who pa5 r s us $4,00 can have the REVIEW one year and one of these watches and a handsome nickel-piated chain with charm. For $5.25 we will send two copies of the REVIEW to anj address desired and a watch; for S6.35 we will supply three subscribers and a watch; for $7.00 we will supply four subscrib- ers and a watch; for $7,50 we will supply five subscribers and a watch. The last offer ena- bles anybody to get a watch free by securing five subscribers at the regu- lar price. Here i3an opportunity to get a good timekeeper cheap.

Frank L. Randall of this city was the Democratic caucus nominee for post­master of the House of Representatives. As 24Demociats can't outvote 79 Re­publicans, Frank didn't succeed in get­ting there, but, to his credit be it said, he received more votes in the House than any of the other Democratic nom­inees.

The bride is a sister of Mrs. Newhart and the bridegroom is Mr. C. H. Ross' father. Only relatives of the contracting parties witnessed the mar-ruge ceremony. The happy couple started for New Orleans the same even. i ng-

Next Ftiday the editors of South­western Minnesota will meet in this city tor the put pose ol forming a per-manent organization and feathering th> interests of the crafts in geneial. It is sinceiely hoped that the meeting will be better attended than the one recently held at Tracy.

The Tracy Trumpet learns that a portion of a window in Van Dusen's elevator at Walnut Grove was sawed out during the night, and next morn­ing the manager of the concern, Elias Bedal, found himself short over one hundred dollar's worth of fur and skin. •

Miss Levi of Mankato, who commit­ted suicide on the night of Jan. 3rd, was no doubt known to many of our Sleepy E\e reader», as she lived in that village during the winter of 1882-3. Miss Levi is the girl whom Carl Winterer at­tempted to shoot, nearly two years ago, on account of the refusal of her parents to allow her to man y him, and the sui­cide was no doubt the result of des­pondency over that love affair.

The ingredients entering into compo­sition of Mishler's Herb Bitters include the purest and most wholesome herbs, from which the medicine derives its name, and which are compounded after the best scientific methods. Dr. Joseph G. Lane, a Chicago physician of high standing, after thoroughly testing the Bitters, writes that he intends using it regularly in hi3 practice, having tried it with the most gratifying results in dis­eases of the kidnevs.

The election of officers of Co. A, held Dec. 17, has been declared void by Judge Advocate General Hicks, on the ground that two members of the com­pany did not receive preliminary notice of the company meeting. Another elec­tion has been called for Wednesday e-vening, 21st inst. ^

Health is impossible when the blood is impure, thick, and sluggish, or when it is thin and impoverished. Under such conditions, boils, pimples, head­aches, neuralgia, rheumatism, and one disease after another is developed. Take Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and it will make the blood pure, rich, warm, and vita­lizing.

Services at the Congregational church everySunday at 10} a. m. and at 7} p. m., the latter is usually a lec­ture. Subject of lecture next Sunday evening—Fire Arms—Sunday school at 2} p. m. Mrs. C. H. Ross, Superin­tendent. All are welcome.

C. MOWERY, Pastor.

The following is one of Postmaster General Hatton's latest orders to post­masters:

"Unclaimed letters, enclosed in en­velopes upon which hotel cards are printed should not be returned to the mailing office unless such letters have written or printed thereon the "Return to" in additiou to the hotel card. The-proprietors of hotels should omit the usual return requests and the guests us­ing such envelopes should be careful to designate what disposition should be made of the letters sent in them in case hey cannot be delivered.

When the weather is fair, farmers coming to this city with their teams find considerable difficulty in passing through our streats without having their sleighs captured by a lot of young ur­chins, who are bent on stealing a ride. The little chaps occasionally cluster a-round a sleigh in such numbers that "hanging on" room is at a premium. In the scramble to catch on accidents are not unfrequent, though so far noth­ing serious has occured. Last Friday a boy named Paul Friederich was thrown under a sieigh and dragged nearly a block before the team could be stopped, but, strange to say, escaped with a few slight bruises. Boys, stop this practice before some of you get maimed for life.

We see by an exchange that Lieut. O. S. Ch de of the late K company 2nd Regiment M. N. G., of Little Falls, will petition the legislature to appro­priate something for his relief on ac­count of injuries leceived at the New Ulm sham battle in 1883, whereby he lost the sight of his right eye. Lieut. Clyde is a veteran of the late Avar.

Our New Ulm boys-located in Tracy are coming to the front in grand style. W. O. Musscr was last week elected president of the board of the village council, and H. F. Seiter was elected one of the trustees. John Lloyd, a former resident of Butternut Valley, was elect­ed one of the justices. All this goes to show that our boys are treading the p ith of nghtiousness.

• Tiacy Ti umpet:—Mr. Ftank Burg,

J r . , of New Ulm, entered this office Wednesday and diopped a box of "Blizzaid" cigais with the compli­ments of his father. The cigars smart under the odium of a misnomer for unlike the dreaded pandemonium of air and snow, from which they take their nanif, they are mild fla­grant and enjoyable. Thanks, Mr. Uurg and may the "Blizzards" of your pioduction never diminish.

For Diphtheria,

To give publicity to what is supposed to be an excellent preventive, and also a eure for diphtheria, is now in order. Sulphur, which is acknowledged to be a reliable" agent in destroying disease geims of auy kind, on man, beast or vegetation, is fused exclusively, and a-lone, in English hospitals, in the treat­ment of all kinds of diphtheretic attacks. It is also prescribed now by the leading physicians of; the United States, with great success, and during the prevalence of the scourge in this country, it should be strongly recommended for use in guarding against the disease as also in the treatmeant of all who are stricken down. Dissolve in water, and use as a gargle, it will afford great, ' and al­most instant relief. If the patient is too young to be able to'gargle, the sulphur should be blown into the throat, [through a hollow]*tube.fj A common straw, or glass, will answer the purpose/admir­ably. I t has accomplished aacure in 99 cases, put of 100,

Two hundred and ninety-four votes were cast at the recent village election in Sleepy Eye. Low and high license were the issues, and low license carried the day. The following ticket was elected:

J. P. Bertrand, President of the council. William Hill, Hans Magenson, William Miller, F. Koehne. John Black, I. Gallagher,

The park proposition vote of 94 to 59.

The Trumpet thus notices the election of H. F. Seiter, a former New Ulm boy, as a trustee of the- village of Tracy: "H. F. Seiter ia a barber, who assures us that the excitement over the report, that he would try to have his shop made the official shop, and making it a fineable offense for people to shave el­sewhere, is useless, as the report is false. Ho is ready to pledge himself against any attempt at legislation in favor of his own shop or raisins the price of shaving. He only insists that people shant kick if they get lather in their mouths or an ear hacked off."

What a Mississippi Pilot Says.

Capt. D. M. Riggs, who is well known at New Orleans and along the Mississippi river, says, " I have been suffering from dyspepsia for the past five years, and from broken rest, by se­vere pains irrrhe bowels and kidneys. I tried every medicine recommended for these diseases, without success. At last I used a bottle of Brown's Iron Bitters, which proved a perfect success in my case." It cures all liver, kidney and malarial diseases.

Singular Fatality.

Lyon County News:

Last Saturday the little son of Mr. and Mrs. James Mills died, at the age of one year and three months. On the Saturday morning previous the little fellow fell from a chair to the floor, and bit his tongue very slightly. The wound continued to bleed slowly, des­pite the mother's efforts to stop it, and on Monday the pareuts took the child to town, and Dr. Parsons attended it, but could not succeed in stopping' per­manently the flow of blood, owing to the difficulty of one so young being con­trolled. On Wednesday the child ap­peared to have lost nearly all its blood, and everything presented to the stomach was immediately expelled. From this time it sank quietly and without a struggle passed away in just a week from the time of the injury. The wound was no larger than the head of a pin, and the bleeding was slow.

Grading WheaS

Northwestern Miller:

"There is a great amount of smut in wheat this j ear,"said Chief Inspec­tor Maxfiield. "There seems to be no effort by the farmers to avoid sowing smutty wheat, or to kill the smut, which they can easily do by soaking the seed in a vitriol solution. The remedy is cheap, harmless and certain, yet they will not employ it. The result you can see by following our inspec­tors for a da)r. As soon as they open a car they snuff vigorously. A very lit­tle smut will give off a plain scent after the car has been closed a few days, and if there is the least odor, the inspec­tor says: *We must look for smut in this car.' He finds it with ease, and wheat which, if not diseased, would grade No 1 or No. 2 hard, instantly goes on record as 'rejected' or condem­ned,'according to the amount of smut in it, and must be sold by sample. It cannot grade higher than rejected, yet when sold it mav bring a price equal to good No. 1 or No. 2 soft, though if we graded it that high we should soon find our official heads in the basket. I think as much hard wheat was raised this year as last, but the increase in acreage was nearly sown to soft wheat, hence the large percentage of grain that grades below 2 hard.

The following bills were passed on and partially allowed on the recom­mendation ot the county attorney as follows:

The Graat *• est-End 'Bus Company.

Mr. S. Child, Manager of the West-End 'Bus. Company, Aukland, New Zealand, states in the Daily Herald of that city, as follows: We have much pleasure in bearing testimony to efficacy of St. Jacobs Oil. Its success has been partic­ularly marked in one case of lameness, that of very valuable horse suffering from severe sprain of the back sinews, so severe as to defy the usual remedies. Other remedies having failed, we were induced to try St. Jacobs Oil and after using it for a few days, the lameness, which was ^almost chronic, entirely disappeared, and the horse has since stood constant work. We have also nsed the Oil most successfully for bruis­es. It is a remedy that should be at hand in every stable. >ct»

We must have been on good terms with the weather clerk last week, wea­ther was really mild but things have changed since on Sunday nigtit mercu­ry was again forced down to 24 degrees below zero.

We learn that Mrs. J . J. Meighan, a prominent and successful teacher of this town was suddenly taken ill, medical aid was summoned and latter reports state that she is convales­cing. We wish her a speedy recovery.

The supervisors of this town contem­plate building another bridge on the New Ulm and Redwood road near Mr. F. Essig's place. The material of said bridge will be of Redstone stone, which are already, on the ground. In buil­ding stone bridges the supervisors take a right step in the right direction.

Mr. Eduard Hensel will build a new house on his farm in Milford next spring, material is partly on the ground. Mr. Hensel is a well to do farmer and the house he will put up will no doubt be a costly one.

^Building operations have been carried on quite lively during the p a s t . two years, and our town shows up, quite a number of costly buildings. Mr. C.« Hansmg values his house and barn at $3.2,00; Mr. Geo. Baker estimates the cost of his house at $2,000; Mr. Leh­man at $1,600; Mr. Geske at $800; etc. In spite of low wheat price our town seems to prosper.

Mr. Carl Lamser, had the misfortune of losing a valuable horse in the latter part of last week, it is indeed a bad thing for him to overcome, as his fin­ancial circumstances are somewhat limited.

A stranger of the feminine gender took board and lodgings at Mr. J . Krieser ot this town on the 2d inst. John says she behaves so well that has already become fond of her and is glad to say >that all is well. s -

Mr. M. Huiras was taken suddenly ill on Thursday of last week, and for Several hours his recovery seemed very doubtful. Drs. Sullivan and Hitchcock of this place, and Dr. Well­come of Sleepy Eye were called for con­sultation. On Friday morning his con­dition was reported much better, and we are pleased to note that he is fast improving, and will, we hope, in a few days be up and out again.

The new councilmen at a meeting held last week expressed in language that certainly cannot be misunderstood, their determination to have the village ordinances complied with. Our Vil lage Marshal was instructed to make complaint, at once, against any person or persons who fail to comply with such ordinances; and he was assured that his prompt action in such cases, would re­ceive the support of the entire council. This action of thecouncilmen is certainly commendable, and will, without doubt, meet the approval of every citizen in the village.

The Springfield villago.election was held on the 9th inst The contest for officers was remarkably exciting, there being three candidates for the office of President of the council, and twelve candidates for village trustees. The ballots being found to bo one in excess of the number of voters the judges pro­ceeded, by the method prescribed by law, to draw one from the ballot-box. which resulted in a tie between Mr. C Warneke and Mr. J- J. Ray for village president. The following is a list of the officers elected : President of the coun­cil, J. J. Ray; Trustees' P. P. Alter­matt, H. Knudson, P. Mc. Keever; Re­corder. M. C. Robertson; Treasurer, Peter Sist; Justices, M. Huiras and T. A. Wilson.

but the Water bury for me I claim to know a good thing when I get hold of't, I do. I would have been in the poor house long ago if my own judgment of the \nlueof things hadn't carried me triumphantly around a good many sharp cor ners I never let big names or big prices for an} thing fool mc a bit as to their real value I know this Waterbury keeps just as good time as the $500 Jorgcneon my partner cairies, so that ends the matter. The only thing I carry a watch lor is to keep time. This does it just as well as the best natch made, and l a m consequently $490 ahead of my ,»artnei That's business— that's mc, e\erytime.

We have made arrangements with the manufacturers which enable us to offer the celebrated Waterbury watch as a premium for subscribers. For some time past publishers of the large dailies and weeklies in the metropoli tan cities have been offering these-watches with great success. The watch, although cheap, has the repu- ' tation of being a good time keeper. Several gentlemen in this city have earned these watches for a number of years, and assure us tl .at they keep correct time. Any person who pa5rs us $4,00 can have the R E V I E W one year and one of these watches and a handsome nickel-piated chain with charm. For $5.25 we will send two copies of the REVIEW to anj address desired and a watch; for S6.35 we will supply three subscribers and a watch; for $7.00 we will supply four subscrib­ers and a watch; for $7,50 we will supply five subscribers and a watch. The last offer ena­bles anybody to get a watch free by securing five subscribers a t the regu­lar price. Here i3an opportunity to get a good timekeeper cheap. See the display ad. in another column for a full description of the Waterbury watch.
