E. Brown, Prin., Amer. Nat. Bank, St. Paul. The Crookston sawmill shut down Saturday night and will remain idle till the first of September. The lack of logs here was the first reason, and supplementing that one is the demand | for men on the harvest fields. The harvest will be completed and thresh- ing started before September 1, and there will be plenty of men avail- able. For the next few weeks every man who can be impressed into ser- vice will be needed to help take care of the crops. There are plenty of logs up in the woods, but none have floated down the river of late, as there is not enough water to float anything larger than a toothpick. The flies are the worst at this sea- son of the year in the woods, and it is therefore very hard to get men | and teams to work loading logs dur- lng this month. The mill will start ain Sept and will run steadily till the river freezes up.—Crookston Times.

Tt appears that last Sunday | morning Chief Sullivan and Police- | man Gordon got into an altercation which was followed by a one-round, but red hot, fistic encounter between {the two, in which both were marked up. Chief Sullivan came to Bemidji |the same morning and Officer Gor- | don_turned in his star and swore out a warrant for Sullivan on a charge of assault and battery. Sullivan left Bemidji yesterday morning, was ar- rested and taken before Judge Sulli- van at Bast Grand Forks, where he entered a plea of not guilty and his hearing was set for August 11, at which time there promises to be a merry mixup unless a settlement is effected in the meantime. What makes the case more interesting is Ithe fact that there has been bad blood between Chiel Sullivan and Judge Sullivan for some time past, the lat- ter charging that the police force was turning men lopse, who had been without bringing them be- fore the court.

Drunken Indians are believed to have killed George Rahier, brother of a International Falls man and who was shot down in a blueberry patch near his homestead in the vicinity of Big Fork a few days ago. Color is lent to this theory because some were seen in the locality of the crime and so far as known the deceased had no enemies. Mr. Rahier, brother of the murdered man and cashier of the In- ternational Falls M. & 1. freight. of- fice, has returned to that place from Big Forks, where the body of his brother was buried. It was at first that the death of the de- ceased had been accidental, but clos- er investigation disclosed the fact that his body had been dragged some distance, which led to a post mortem examination and the discovery that he had been shot twice and with a gun of different caliber to the one which he was carrying. The dead man was a homesteader in that sec- tion and had a piece of land which he proved up on in the spring. He is not known to have had an énemy, and at the time of his death was but a short distance from his home look- ing for a blueberry patch. He was 36 years of age and is survived by a family consisting of his wife and four children, the youngest of whom is but a few weeks old. The authori- ties of Itasca county have promised a thorough investigation of the case |so that the party or parties guilty of the crime may be apprehended and punished. Bemidji, Minn., July 31, 1911.

Scrubbing brushes, when not in use, should be put in an airy place, bristles downward. Thus the water will drain out of them and they will quickly dry. If they are laid on their backs the water will soak into the wood , loosening the bristles, whether they are glued or wired.
