Stillwater, Fergus Falls, Ked Wing, Winona and Mankato all Send Their Weekly Quota. SOCIETY IN THE IUIEE CITY- AQniet\Veek,But Numerous Small Social Events. Taken as a whoie society inMinneapolis last week was quietly disposed. It has been frequently said of late that the season began too early and started off too bril- liantly to hold out long and that those ladies who usually contributed to the winter's social merriment had already com- pleted their series. There is something in this and a glance over the weekly resume in the Globe will show the early months of the current campaign to have been unusually and wonderfully brilliant. However, the gay world has not had a surfeit and the sweets of society have not palled upon it. LEADIXG EVEXTS.

Graceville is one of those beautiful little villages in Western Minnesota that are fast growing into prominence without attracting any great attention by the sounding of trumpets. It is but a few years old, and has more than doubled in population this year, and now numbers about seven hundred souls. It is at the crossing of the Fargo Southern division of the Milwaukee road and the Brown's Valley division of the Manitoba road. Is beautifully located on the banks of Tokna lake, in the heart of one of the finest farming districts in Minnesota. The lake is of beautiful, clear water, filled with fish, and its banks are covered with a splendid growth of native oak. The city has three fine elevators, with a storage capacity of 100,000 bushels. Has one of the finest flour- ing mills in the state, the original cost being $52,000. The mill is standing idle at the pres- ent, but it is hoped will be in operation be- fore many months. The stores are all doing a fine business and the merchants are happy. Graceville has that of which most towns can- not brag, a good hotel. It is owned and run by an old commercial traveler, Al Stewart, more favorably known throughout the North- west as "Farmer Stewart" or "O. K. Salara- tus." "Al" has eaten in so ma ly hotels he knows how to run a hotel to please tho com- mercial travelers. His hotel is a large, two- story frame, with large, elegant rooms, neatly furnished and the best of ventilation. His office is neat as wax and contains two oleander trees about five feet hijrh, which will be in full bloom in the dead of winter. The parlor is a perfect bandbox, and his dining-room is a place where the hungry can always be fed. Mrs. Stewart is a lady of refinement and good taste, and always keeps an eye out to see that nothing goes wrong, but the jolliest person in tbe whole house is John, the clerk, and what John and AI can't think of to amuse the guests no one need try.

SOCIETY IN THE IUIEECITY-

AQniet\Veek,But Numerous Small

Social Events.Taken as a whoie society inMinneapolis

last week was quietly disposed. It has

been frequently said of late that the seasonbegan too early and started off too bril-liantly to hold out long and that thoseladies who usually contributed to the

winter's social merriment had already com-pleted their series. There is something in

this and a glance over the weekly resume in

the Globe will show the early months ofthe current campaign to have been unusually

and wonderfully brilliant. However, the

gay world has not had a surfeit and thesweets of society have not palled upon it.

LEADIXG EVEXTS.
