Mrs. John. son landed in New York Aug: 2 from the ship Kaiser Wilhelm Der Grosse, the same -zhip on which Mayor Gaynor lator nearly lost his life by an assassin’s bullet. From New York Mrs. Johnson pro- ceeded to Washington, D. C. where she is now staying the guest ofa friend. Mrs, Johnson will take up her resi- dence in the house which she and the governor planned to make their home before his death putan end to their plans. The strain of the governor’s illness and the worry while he was in office proved too much for Mrs. Johnson’s health and she was told by her physician that it would be necessary for her to seek health in travel. At that time Madam Fremstad, who was an intimate friend of the family, was singing in the- twin cities and asked Mrs. Johnson to join her on a trip through Europe. Mrs. Johnson accepted her offer and on May 4 they left St. Paul, May 11 they sailed from New York for Paris.

Blackduck, Aug, 26—(Special to the Pioneer)—Senator A, H-: Hanson, of Ada who is a candidate to succeed himself in the upper house of the state legislature, got “in bad” here and it cost him many votes, according to Mr, T. H. McAllister, proprieter of the Palace hotel. The cause of Mr. McAllister’s ire was the lack of a picture of the gentleman from Ada in his “Rogues’ Gallery.” A week ago, Albert Berg, Hanson’s apponent, G. W. Campbell, “Al” Hazen, and H. W. Alsop had placed their pictures in a special rack. - Ike Black of Bemidji dropped into the hotel to supply the host with cutlery and noticing the rack of pictures, assisted Mr. McAllister to print a neat sign, “Rogues’ Gallery,” which was tacked above ‘the hieads ot the prospective office holders. The guests at the hotel derived considerable merriment from the placard, which turned to" disgust at the lack of humor shown Monday by Mr. Hanson. - The senator ar- rived early, had breakfast. made a careéful observation of the ‘'Rogues’ Gallery,” and then carefully can- vassed the town, He left on the evening train without introducing himself to the landlord. “If he was afraid to place his picture beside that of his opponent, - Allierg Berg, whose face is the largest ome the gallery,” said McAllister, * he would make a poor loser. - T did not know either candidate personally, but this incident conyinces me that TEN CENTS PER WEEK.
