Grant Merits MrerattstReview By E. C, KILEY. City and Vicinity. NOTES OF NEWS AND PERSONAL. Dr. W. P. Brown, the dentist, has taken office rooms over Booth’s cigar shop. The funeral of Mrs. Mohl, who died on Wednesday mght at Deer River, took place yesterday afternoon. Interment was made in the Itasca cemetery. Chas. Lyuick left Tharsday morn- ing for Mora, Minn. He bought the Lee Cudney residence while here and expects to make Grand Rapids his fu- ture home. Services will be conducted tomor- row morning and evening inthe Presbyterian church by Rev.E H.Bull of Duluth. The public is cordially invited to attend. Miss Maggie Atherton returned on Saturday last from Grand Rapids, where she has been residing, for a few day’s visit with her parents. —Branard Tribune. Miss Maggie Atherton returned from a visit to her parents and friends at Brainerd this week, and resumed her duties behind the counter at Marr’s dry goods store. Mrs. S. McNaughton; of Staples, Minn., daughter of Mr. ¥. McNaugh- ton, was been here on a visit during the past week. She returned to her home Thursday moruing. Chas. A. Nutter is now at Wausau, Wis. He writes to have the Herald- Review sent to him at that place, and adds that he will return to Grand Rapids about the 15 of April. A.W. Wright of Hibbing, accom- panied by his brother from Duluth, who is one of the§ Wells-Stone mer- cantile representatives, were here last evening shaking hands with the Sagi- : naw boys. : “St. Patrick’s Willing Workers will meet with me next Wednesday,” said Mrs. George Lothrop to the Herald- Review this morning, “and just say that I request the members to bring their thimbles, and that I will have a nice little yellow ribbon to present to each one.” Now that Hon. W. R. Baumbach has decided to remain in Grand Rapids another year as trustee for the Itasca Mercantile Company, Mrs. Baumbach will reside here during the suinmer, a fact that will be received with much pleasure by those who are acquainted with that estimable lady. Shenff M, L. Toole and County Commissioner Henry Logan returned from Minneapolis last evening, where they gave testimony in the personal damage suit now being tried against the Power-Simpson company. Sheriff Toole says we don’t know what deep show is up here when the condition of Minneapolis is take into consider- ation. The people of Grand Rapids and Itasca county wanted to see an experimental farm, so they went at it and had one located here. Aitkin county people want to see one, but they must make a trip to St. Anthony Park. This a good illustration of the difference between the enterprise pf the two towns and counties. Grand Rapids people hold up their hands in holy horror when they read in the St. Paul papers,that gambling— poker and crap games—are carried on right in the heart of the city and under the very noses of the police authorities. How such things can be in this age of boasted morality is incomprehinsibly to the unsophistv- cated inhabitants whereaway. Mr. F. W. Schermerhorn, who proved up on a valuable claim in Itasca county about a year ago, is now a resident of Saginaw. In mak- ing a remittance to the Herald-Re- view the other day he remarked in- cidentally that he was awaiting the arrival of McKinley prosperity’ and hoped that it would strike him suf- ficiently hard to enable him to pay his subscription in advance hereafter. Rev. and Mrs. Chas. Campbell were south bound passengers on Wed- nesday morning’s train, having bid their friends good-bye in Grand Rapids, and started for their tuture home in Paola, Florida. Mr, and Mrs, Campbell will visit in Chicago a few days, and then proceed south- ward. They leave many warm friends here who will wish for them unbounded success and happiness jn their future lives. A representative of the German American Insurance company arrived here Tuesday evening and on ‘Wed- nesday settled in full with J. F. Mc- Cormick for the loss of ‘his home on Wednesday night. Mr. McCormick carried $1000 insurance on his house and furniture through F, P. Sheldon, the local agent of that company, ard disappeass, and took dinner with Mr. aed Mrs, A.E. Wilder. The roads are in good condition. Mrs. Leahy, says she enjoyed the dinner more than any meal she has eaten this winter, and declares that as a stop- ping place Wilder’s has no superior in Itasca county. Barring L. F.Knox, who was elected villiage trustee and township treas urer last ‘Tuesday, John Beckfelt is by all odds the happiest man in town. He, too, was elected to and office Tues- day—chairman of the township trustees—but this is not the source of his joy. He has the gmp, but that isnot the cause of his exultation, ‘The fact is, he became the father of a bouncing ro-pound boy on Thursday of this week, and.compared with this distinction all other honors pale into insignificance. John Beckfelt Jr. and his mother are getting along nicely, while Beckfelt Sr. defies. the deadly grippe and bears up heroically. ‘The Rev. Dr. Forbes of Duluth, chaplain of the state senate, will de liver, his famous lecture, “How Much _ is He Worth,” at the M. E. church, next Fnday even- ing, March 19. There will be special singing and recitations, and an ad- mission fee of 25 cents will be charged. Dr. Forbes is one ot the really great lecturers of the west, and Grand Rapids people who have listened to the reverend gentleman on former occas- ions will not fail to hear him on Fri- day evenmg next. ‘The little church will not serve to accommodate the audience that will seek to gain admis- sion on that evening. A party of lady friends of Mrs.| George Lothrop conspired together yesterday and in the evening called on her in a body and took complete possession of her home, and enjoyed themselves for three or four hours in a most satisfactory manner. The oc- casion for it all was Mrs, -Lothrop’s thirty-sixth birthday, and as a surprise patty 1t wasa most decided success. Mrs. Lothrop proved eqnal to the emergency, however, as hostess, and treated her guests to delicious reiresh- ments, and entertained charmingly until twelve o’clock, when they de- parted with kind wishes for many happy returnes of the day, and feeling most delighted with the success of their adventure. Mrs. Lothrop was pre- sented with a handsome tea set. The Temple Ladies’ Quartette of Duluth, composed of Misses Flora Louden, first soprano; Anna Farrell; second soprano; Justine Shannon, first contrlato; Miss Dora Swan, second contralto; contemplate visiting Grand Rapids in about two weeks. ‘The people of this viliage remember the splendid entertainment given at Village hall by the Ladies’ Quartette last tall, and will gladly welcome them upon any occasion that they may elect to visit Grand Rapips and favor our music-loving citizens with one of their delightful concerts. 1t has not been decided positively that the quartette will include Grand Rapids in the list of towns to be visited during the last two weeks of this month, but shouid they conclude to come, the date and program will be duly an- nounced in these columns, Will Serve Anotner Year. Trustee W. R. Baumbach of the Itasca Mercantile company, returned ‘Thursday from a business trip to Du- luth and St. Paul and a brief visit to his home at Wadena. At the two former cities he attended meetings of the creditors of the company which he represents as trustee and reported upon the progress thus far made. Mr. Baumbach assumed the management of the affairs of the Itasca company just about a year ago and he has suc- ceeded in making so satisfactory a showing that the creditors were unanimous in urging him to remezin another year, and the Herald-Review is ple sed to announce that he has finally yielded to their wishes and will continue to be a_ resident of Grand Rapids during 1897, at the end of which time we hope to retain him permanently. Of a total indebted- ness of $113,000 against the Itasca company when Mr. Baumbach too charge a year ago he has pald off $63,000, besides discounting every bill of gvods bought during tbat time. Considering the hard times that pre- vailed during 1896, and especially the apparent scarcity of mouev fh Itasca county, this is indeed a most remark - able record, that required unusual husiness ability and tact to accom- plish. It should be said. too, that the stocks of the several departments of the big store have been fully kept up and are today in a better condition than they were a year ago. SHOULD BE ENFORCED.

Between 10 and ,11 o'clock last | Saturday nigit fire was discovered in | the residence of J. F. McCormick on } Foley avenue, Mr, and Mrs. Mc- Cormick were awakened by the house dog. ‘The members of the family had barely time to escape from the burning building. ‘The firemen re- sponed promptly, but could not reach the fire from the nearest hydrant, and consequently were powerless to stay the flames. The fire originated from a defective chimney in the rear eud of the house. The Willing Workers’ | society demonstrated their usefulness and charitableness by meeting on Tuesday and preparing many neces- sary articles of wearing apparel for the little children who had lost their clothing. ‘The total loss 1s estimated at about $1,500; insurauce, $1000. Teachers Examination. The applicants for certificates to teach in the public schools of this county for the ensuing year have been busily engaged yesterday and today with Superintendent Mrs. O. H. Stilson in the preparation of their papers. There are twenty one in attendance at the examination, the largest number that has ever respond- ed to the call of the superintendent in this county. Itis gratifying to note that among those who are today | solving the problems necessary to receive certificates are many who have gone up through the several gades of Gand Rapids’ schools. The work begun yesterday morning and Mrs. Sulson hopes to get through this evening. Those in attendance are: Eliza King, Fannie Lester, Hattie Brooks, Charlie King, Edwin Freach, Mable Day, Mrs. J. A. Martin, Stephen J. Leahy, Blanch Jellison. M. A. Leahy, A. M. Wood- ruff, Mrs. M.C.Jondreu, M. A. Spang, Jas. Doran, W. T. McKeown. Hulda Bloomquist, Adelaide B. Chisholm, | Mable Brady, Bessie Brady, Hattie Allen, Alice Campbell. A Nut-Brawn Roast. In speaking of public affairs as conducted during the past year in the township of Deer River, the Itasca News throws down the gaunt- | let in the following lucid manner: “There are grumblers:—‘high taxes,’ ‘extravagant board,’ ‘better disorgan- ize,’ is the cry that has come from some. “The News wishes to state, for the benefit of all concerned, that the above is the correct statement as taken from the records, and if any one | doubts it who will interest himself enough to look into it, he is doing the board a favor. And we now re- mind him that the books are always open to inspection, and the clerk will be pleased at any time in business hours to assist such investigation, And, if there are any one particular officer has drawn too large a tee, we will be pleased to introduce him to the “fee fattended” officer, and he can have said officer’s town order for ten per And if hes | not satisfied and thinks that he could make the sheet balance more to the town’s profit by being in the “nng,” we cincerely hope that he will make it manifest to the board or clerk, and if he proves himself competent, we will gnarantee him any office on the list at his discretion, for the ensuing year.” STATE TEACHER’S INSTITUTE. An Institute for {tasea County will be Held at Grand Rapids, During the Week Commencing Monday, March 29, 1897. The institute will be under the su- pervision of the county superintendent, who will make all necessary arrange- ments for the convenience of teachers and the success of tie institute. In- structors thoroughly prepared for the work will be proyided They will be furnished with such professional books, apparatus and literature as will be of special service to teachers. Lectures and discussions will be ap- pointed for some of the evenings, and every thing possible be done to fill the week with valuable matter. Good teachers and those ambitious to improve, cannot afford to absent themselves. The school officers of the best dis tricts are noticing who take part in | the institutes, and those who never attend are not likely to gain promi- nence as enteprising teachers, or to deserve any hearty endorsement from the superintendent. Give the superintendent timely notice of your intention to be present and ask for a syllabus of the work to be done. Work wili begun promptly Monday morning and close Fnday evening. Be on hand at the begining. Plan to stay the entire week and let nothing prevent giving your undivided atten- uon to its duties. The above 1s a circular letter issued by | State Superintendent W. W. Pendergast, and the teachers of Itasca county will no doubt heed the advice which he offers. County Sup- erintendent Mrs. O. H. Stilson has been advised that Mrs. Jacques and Mrs. Gray will attend the session as Instructors. Mrs, T. J. Feeley Dead. Just as we go to press word was received that Mrs. T. J. Feeley, form- erly of Swan River, died today at Minneapolis. A Shining Light. When the Itasca News first ap- peared under the business and editori- al management of Mr. H. H, Lamp- man it was not looked upon as a possible permanency among __ the newspapers of Itasca county. With somg show of fact it was argued by the Grand Rapids publishers that Deer River could not support a paper and that the venture would be | short-lived. Following the confusion and excitement of the campaign Mr. Lampman retired, having sold the paper to Murray J. Taylor. Mr. Tay- lor’s experience as a journalist and printer was limited to a couple of month’s schooling under Mr. Lamp- man, but how thorough was the train- ing and apt the pupil is becoming more apparent with each succeeding issue of the News under the magic influence of the bright young editor’s powerful pen. Mr Taylor has plun- ged to the front rank of Minnesota jurnalists at a single bound and to- day is a shining member of the Fourth estate whose future career as a writer and moulder of public opinion cannot fail.to lend a new luster to the honorable profession with which | he has become identified. With an | originality, grace and piquancy he handles alike the story of a dog fight or the proposed policy of a new pres- ident. Politics, poetry, romance, science and the local newslet are all subdued in the sanctum of the News | and given out to an. appreciative public for the modest sum of one dollar per annum. Mr. Taylor can- | not do his budding genius justice in a hamlet the size of Deer River. He should come to the metropolis where an inviting field awaits him and where his deserving efforts would be better appreciated. In the meantime he has demonstrated that the terminal town can support a paper of the right sort. The Herald Review doffs its fedora to Brother Taylor and awaits further developments. WAND FROM WASHINGTON. Some Notes of Local Interest Concerning Minnesota Affairs. The headquarters of the Silver Republican party may be located in Duluth within a very short period = It is said that C. A. Towne has about decided to locate the headquarters of the organization, of which . he’ is the head in Duluth. He is of opinion that the wor can be conducted just 4s well from Duluth as Washington, | Chicago or any other point. The prospects are that - Senators Davis and Nelson are apt.to get -into a big row over the distribution. of Minnesota patronage. The first hitch between them is over ex-Governor Merriam. Davis, it it is said, does not think that Merriam deserves a fat officer. Nelson thinks otherwise. Whether Nelson or Davis will win out is a questiou that must be decided later. Anyhow, they will not be able to agree upon appointments, and the result will be a row which is sure to last through this administration. It looks: now, however, as though Davis would land just as many federal prizes as Nelson. Senator Wolcott of Colorado, called the other evening at the White House and remained some time with Presi- dent McKinley. The time was de- voted entirely to the subject of bi- metallism and Senator Wolcott told the president the main features of Ins trip abroad and informed him of the conditions which he found, It is understood that Mr. McKinley was an earnest listener and that he was much encouraged by the report that Senator Wolcott brought back, FIRST—They deal directly with the largest wholesale houses in the United States, and buy for cash, and they have the advantage of many years ex- perience in the business. .
