f { | FELL HEIR T0 $150,000 Report Current to Effect That P. H. McGarry Possesses oz Large Fortune. AUNT DIED IN WISCONSIN AND LEFT HIM MONEY. i Story Emanated From Black- duck Andlis Generally Be- lieyed to be True. A report emanating from Blackduck is to the effect that lastweek P. H. McGarry of Walker fell heir to the large fortune of $150,000 through the death of an aunt who lived in Wisconsin. The story, while it is not vouched for, is said to be generally be lieyed at Blackduck and is taken as reliable, asitis known that Mr. McGarry had wealthy rela- tives in the Badger state, in thé event of whose death he would be the possessor of a large amount of money. Mr. MaGarry has not been ap- proached regarding the matter, but there is no doubt that he has heard of the rumor and as yet he has neither made a denial nor at firmed the story. It is hoped by his many friends throughout northern Minnesota that the reportis true, as Mr. McGarry is one of the most en- terprising men in this section of the state. With the capital which this would give him he would engage in a number of in- dustries besides those in which heis now interested and Bemidji would undoubtedly receive the bulkof his investments. At the present time he owns and operates two hotels, the Pa- meda at Walker and the Teepee- tonka at Blackduck and is at the head of the Walker Hospital and Sanitarium association. He has had his eye on this city as a fay- orable location for a large hotel on the order of the one at Black- duck and should it be true that he has fallen heir tothe large fortune which it 1s reported he has the venture will undoubted- 1y be made. Mrs. Kirsch Dead. Mrs. M. E. Kirsch of Crooks- ton died at her home yesterday morning after anhour’s illness, heart failure being the cause of her sudden taking off. Mrs. Kirsch was the mother of John and Adolph, mail clerks on the Duluth line of the Great North- ern and of Arthur Kirsch, form- erly agsistant postmaster here. Mrs. Kirsch was born in Luxem- burg, Germany and was 54 years old. Announcement. Beginning Oct. 3rd.

LOGGERS PREPARING About Twenty Camps Will Operate on North Line the Coming Winter. CAMPS BEING BUILT AND- LOG- GING OUTFITS INSTALLED. Season's Cut Will Be Somewhat Lighter Than Last Year— Cedar a Factor. During the coming logging season there will be m the neigh- borhood of twenty logging camps operating on the line of the M. & L north of Bemidji and already the contractors are busy build- ing camps, installing their outfits and preparing for the season’s work. The cut next winter will be somewhat lighter than last sea- son, but fully as many if not more men will be employed, as the cedar business is coming to the front in a remarkable man- ner and a large number of labor- ers will be required for this work. Kirk & Smith will operate a large camp near Mud lake and their contract aggregates about 5,000,000 feet. ~Amnother camp located near Mud lake will be operate by John Durant, who has contracted to land 2,000,000 feet in Mud lake. The Beltrami Tim- ber company have a tract which it is estimated will cut 7,000,000 feet, but as yet the contract for logging this has not yet been let and it is not known whether it will be logged during the coming season. One camp will be in operation south of Mallard lake for the Walker & Akeley com- pany, the amount to be cut be- ing 8,000,000 feet. John Moberg of this city has taken a contract to putin 3,000,000 feet and has started the erection of his camps and his outfit passed through the the city this morning enroute to the camp near Gull lake. Irwin & O’Brien own considerable tim- ber in the yicinity of Blackduck and Tenstrike, but they have not decided whether it will be cut next winter, although they will probably operate two or three camps on old cuftings. The J. A. Irvine company will have six camps, five of them be- ing tributary to Blackduck and the other located on Pine Island. While the Crookston Lumber company’s cut of pine willexceed that of last winter, they will also engage heavily in.the cedar busi- ness and will have a number of cedar camps in the vicinity of Dexterville. The S. C. Jackson company, who operated a num- berof cedar camps last winter, will also cuta large number of posts and poles. Blakely & Far- ley will do most of their work on the reservation, but three camps wili be operated tributary to Far- ley and they will land approxi- mately 10,000,000 feet. 1t can be seen by theabove es- timates that the logging busi- ness during the coming winter will be nearly as large as last, and, although Walker & Akeley who were serhaps the heaviest owners of pine in northern Min- nesota, ‘have practically finished in this section. the number of men employed in the woods will be fullyas large if not larger than last season.
