Thomas Kelly of Crookston was in town Monday and tells us that his brother William , who has been afflicted with erysipelas in his nose and face since two weeks ago , 'is recovering and out of danger now but he had a pretty bad spell of it. Thomas also says that Wil liam Cavanaugh , who was thrown from a buggy in a runaway some time ago , breaking his shoulder , is slowly recovering. S. G. Vj. Griswold , sporting editor of the World-Herald , is the special guest of Charlie Metz at his ranch and schooling and fish ing box in Cherry county. Mr. Metz took Mr. Griswold up Sat urday afternoon ostensibly to give him a week's rest , during which his broken ribs will have a chance to mend. Mr. Metz says that Sandy can ride around in a buggy and watch himself and the rest of the party make it interesting for the chickens , or lie in a hammock on the shore of Raccoon lake and watch them hustle the blue wing teal along. Of course the sport ing editor will make no attempt to do any shooting himself , but my , oh me , he won't do a thing to those golden ring perch up there. The other members of the party who accompanied Mr. Metz were Frank Parmelee , Billy Marsh and Louis Metz. World-Herald. Cluett Coat Shirts , Nobby and Neat.

Frank says that- his son Clarence has purchased a shop in Sturgis , S. D. , and that his wife is enjoy ing good health there HOW and they think they have permanently located. Ed Hagstrom , th e butcher era- ployed the past four months by Stetter Tobien , told around town last Friday and Saturday that he was going out hunting Sunday , to be gone a few days , and , on this pretext , managed to pull out of town without causing suspicion as to his real intention of skipping out for good. This man , it ap pears , has a wife an-1 child about five years old and they lived in the back part of the Efner build ing. When they came here he wanted credit at the lied Front to buy some household furniture and Jake Tobien agreed to stand good for the payment of the bill , but it seems that Hagstrom managed to draw his wages regularly on the pretext that he was applying a part of the same on the debt at the Red Front. Instead of this he continued to buy on credit and spent his wages elsewhere , ex cepting two small payments. Pre vious to leaving town ( Saturday ) Mrs. Hagstrom went to Dave Stinard's and said she wanted to surprise her husband and took home two Stetson hats for him to make a choice.
