C. and Ed. Thompson, A. Oliver, A. Hale, R. W. Schultz and C. O. Carlson of Fau Claire, Wis., formed a party of “Badger state” residents who have spent the last three or four days in the city looking over the surrounding country with a view to purchasing some farm lands. They were much pleased with the outlook here and will probably invest. Judge Marshall A. Spooner came home Saturday afternoon from Grand Rapids, where he has been holding a term of court for Itasca county. Most of the time of the court for the latter part of the week ‘was taken up with the consideration of a divorce case which was rich, rare and racey in the extreme, and the manner in which the family “skeleton” was raked from the closet and paraded to the view of an expectant crowd was exceedingly nauseating. The case was finally concluded, to the intense relief of the judge. A case from Deer River, involving a lien on the Mor- risy hotel property at that place, is now being considered by the court. That this is an important case is shown by the fact that no less than seven attorneys are engaged in the prosecution and defense of the case. The judge left this noon for Grand Rapids and expects to con- clude the term by Thursday of this week. Three hundred carnations at Lake Park Green house. $1.00 per dozen. Phone orders delivered.

Grand Rapids Independent: “Hank” Logan, who has been doing missionery work among the lumber jacks of the Bemidji territory for the hospitals of the Benedictine sisters was a visitor here this week, Mr. Logan went over to Hibbing and other range towns Tuesday where he is renewing acquaintances. D. W. Carter, postmaster at Quir- ing, came down this morning from his home. He was accompanied by his son, F. A. Carter,and his son-in- law, William Proctor, of Portland,N. D. The latter two gentlemen are returning to Portland after having visited at Quiring where they attended the funeral of the late Mrs. Carter. M. F. Willson (Bill) came in last night from Crookston, where he spent Sunday with a party of friends. He said that business at Crookston is rather on the standstill at pres- ent, which is usually the case at this time of the year in the Red River Valley. Mr. Willson will leave tonight for Shevlin, beginning his regular weekly visit among the mer- chants for a packing company which he represents. The girls’ and boys’ basketball teams of Bagley high school passed through the citv on Sunday morn- ings’ train returning to Bagley, after having played two games at Cass Lake against the girls’ and boys’ high school teams of that place. We did not get the exact scores,but the Bagley team won both games. The girls’ game was a very close one, but the game between the boys’ teams was Bagley all the way through. Claude Breneman, son of Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Beneman, lies at -St. Anthonv’s hospital in a critical condit /s aresult of an attack of app '« icitis. Claude had sub- mitted an operation for relief from ap pendicities but apparently attempted to get out before he had entirely recovered from the effects of the surgeon’s knife. His many friends, and also those of his parents, sincerely hope that his life will be spared as he is one of the most popu- lar and one of the best young men in the entire city. An over-heated stovepipe in Hak- kerup studio caused a fire this fore- noon which called out the fire departmeut, although but little dam- age was done by the flames. It appears that the fire got its start back of a stairway between the Hakkerup studio and Stewart’s con- fectionery and had it not been dis- covered and promptly extinguished by the firemen it undoubtedly would have caused a big loss as all of the buildings in that vicinity are frame and very inflamable. The damage as a result of the fire was mostly caused by water and does not amount to much. Time to Get Busy. “But life has no bright side!” walled the pessimist. “Then get busy and polish up the { dark side,” rejoined the optimist.—Chi- cago News. One of the most rare kinds of cour- age Is the courage to wait.—8t. Louls G'~be-Democrat. L 3 ; 2 Never a One Day President. The periodic assertion is made that on Sunday, March 4, 1849, Senator Da- vid Rice Atchison of Missouri, who was then president pro tem. of the senate, was president of the United States ‘“virtually.” He never was. “virtually” or otherwise. In 1793 congress enacted that in event of no president or vice president being ready to succeed the first office should devolve on the president of the senate and next on to the speaker of the house. The succession changed in 1886. Now, Zachary Tajy lor and Millard Fillmore were in Wash- ington on March 4, 1849. It being Sun- day, they permitted an interregnum to follow until the next day. Mr. Atchl- son took no oath as president, and without taking such he could not ex- ercise the office. Mr. Taylor could have taken the oath at any second subsequent to noon on March 4. No pompous Inauguration is demanded. The chief justice need not administer the oath. Arthur took it In New York before Judge Brady at 2 a. m. and Mr. Roosevelt in Buffalo before United States Judge Hazel. The “virtually” of Mr. Atchison Is visionary unless by some bolt from the blue the elected officials had been re- moved.—Pittsburg Post. Glory Everywhere. A Methodist minister was much an- noyed by one of his hearers frequently shouting out during the preaching, “Glory!” “Praise the Lord!” and the lke. Though often reproved, the hap- py member persisted in expressing himself. One day the minister invited him to tea and, to take his mind from thoughts of praise, handed him a scl- entific book, full of dry facts and fig: ures, to pass the time before tea. Presently the minister was startled by a sudden outburst of “Glory!” “Halleluiah!” and “Praise the Lord!” “What is the matter, man?”’ asked the minister. “Why, this book says the sea is five miles deep?” “Well, what of that?” “Why, the Bible says my sins have been cast Into the depths of the sea, and if it is that deep I need not be afrald of their ever coming up again. Glory!” The minister gave up hopes of re- forming him. A Daring Escape. The annals of Sing Sing are full of daring escapes. A typical case was that of Pallister and Rohlf, two con- victed murderers. By frequent appeals they had headed off the day of their execution, and at length decided on escape at any cost—even that of life itself. " Late one night Pallister called for a drink of milk, and as the official on duty opened the cell door to give it him he was seized, dragged in and overpowered. The desperado then locked the officer in the cell and, after securing his keys, released his com-|d rade Rohlf, when they in turn over- came and disarmed the second night watchman. This done, they offered re- lease to three more prisoners with whom they had made friends. These declined the doubtful benefit, however, whereupon the two murderers climbed the skylight, reached the boundary wall and dropped to liberty by the broad Hudson, which they crossed in a small boat.—New York Tribune. Up Two Stumps. Little Johnny was in the habit of wanting more victuals put upon his plate than he could eat. His papa de- cided to break him of the habit. One day as Johnny insisted upon being served until his plate was well filled his papa said, “Johnny, if I give you this you will have to eat every bit of it or I will punish you.” Johnny prom- ised that he would, and bravely did the little fellow try to do so, but in vain. It was too much for him. He would try again and again and then| look sorrowfully at his papa. Finally, laying down his fork, he said: “Papa, if you was me which would you rather do, get a licking or bust?” A Very maa wog. A little girl came running to tell about a mad dog she had seen. “We saw a mad dog!” she gasped, but the words seemed too tame to do justice to the situation. “Oh, he was mad, mad!” she added, frowning and pumping her fists. “He was furious!”—Harper's Waaklv PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to cure any case of Itching, Blind, Bleeding or Protruding Piles in 6 to 14 daysor money refunded. 50c HEALTH ORDINANCE.
