Mrs. Lettau was 81 years old, and the mother of 13 children. She died Tuesday of congest ion of the lungs and bronchitis. Anne Lettau lived in Minnesota during one of the daraest periods in the history of the state, and of the country. She and her family were here during the terrible Indian massacre of August 1862.

Dated Januaiy i9th, 1901. JOHN CUTTING,

Co. Supt. of Schools.

He Was Cute. A few weeksago the Standard made

mention of the fact that Wabasso would have a local telephone exchange within a short time, the required number of phones having been subscribed for. But it would now appear the whole thing is off, as nothing has since been heard of the affair.

About four weeks ago a young man by the name of Oscar Sicard, palming himself off as being in the employ of the Southeran Electric Telephone Com­pany, made a thorough canvas of this village and in a short time had about twenty-four phones subscribed for. He left town promising that a crew would put iu the machines the following week.

He went to Seaforth, attempted a similar game and succeeded iu appro­priating some of the company's money to his own use, besides leaving several creditors in the lurch. The telephone company heard of the deal and at once sent out orders for his arrest, whicn, it is 'understood, * was accomplished a t Springfield. How much mon'er he se-cecured here is not known, but it is thought he did not receive any advance payments. The ompaDy claims he was in its employ at the time he solicited here, hence What encouragement he gave our citizens amounts to nothing/- ..*'" ^ H a w e v e r , the hopes of gett ing a local exchange has by no means vanished, as there is now a strong movement afoot among some of the business men to take matters in their own hands and m case the company can't be induced to pu t m the exchange, it will probably be put in by local parties. I t is a capital idea i n d all that is needed is to make a start ' and it is sure to be made a success. Other towns no larger than Wabasso have local exchanges, and they are made a success in every sense of the word, why could i t not be made a paying in­vestment here—Wabasso Standard.

J R H E tobaccos used iu the production of this cigar are of the finest se-1 lected stock. Critical smokers appreciate this fact, and derive more

genuine satisfaction out of one "NAN W I L K E S " cigar than out of two of any other brand on the market.

Wide-awake cigar dealers have learned to know that it pays to buy what their customers like best.

This ciffar suits the smoking public. They're sellers. A word to the wise is suiiicient.
