--Ed FORTUNE and family, of the Penokee country were callers at this office last Monday. Ed is one of the
Jewell County "boys" whom we have known for lo these many years and we'd have to prevaricate extensively to say anything bad about him. He was a resident of this county about 30 years ago at which time his father had a claim on Rock Creek but the family got discouraged and went "back east" while Ed was yet a wee kid. He has a good farm near Penokee and has, so he informs us, a regular Jewell County prospect for corn this year.

Main Street.

--A young couple was recently married and the bride sent an invitation to her aunt to attend the wedding. The cards were swell affairs and the corners bore the inscription, "Children not expected."

The three buildings were all small frame buildings and in the strong south wind which prevailed burned like tinder. Only the fact that the Dolton building presented a barrier in the way of the a high and heavy stone wall saved that store from the flames. The buildings were all owned by Mr. STOBER...
