Dr Jones, a Vriga City visitor, and Frank Miller of Decorah won a $10 amateur photo contest by Leslie’s Weekly amid reports of a big pearl find near Prairie du Chien. The Pearl weighed 62 grains, found by Burns while fishing near Lynville, selling for $1000. Rudolph Muehlenthaler and wife arrived from Miles to start a drug business here, leasing the Becker building on Center street. Stockman return passes by railroads were deemed unconstitutional, withroads deciding to stop pre giving such privileges.
