After putting in ten months time in the woods, Burt Price came down this week and went to Minneapolis to get another glimpse of civilization. Hon. D. M. Gunn returned from his trip to the coast last week. He re- ports that conditions West are not as encouraging as they are right here in Itasca county, Dave Huson and Ora Harry re- turned from Walker this week, and re- port nothing there except Bernard’s paper and lots of room to grow.

He will move his stock and livery apparatus to that place next week, Sheriff Toole made a trip to Still- water last Saturday with John Bon- ville, Gid Raymond and Pat O’Neil, each sentenced to six months in the| penitentiary. Mrs. J. P. O’Donnell has been con- fined to her room at the Rosser hos- pital for several days, and it was feared by the. physician that typhoid fever was approaching, but she is‘now rapidly recovering and is out of dan-} at thie me. ger. Misses Lena C. Paul and Adeline Beatrice Chisholm, of Grand Rapids, who assisted at the Catholic fair, re-' |turned home Wednesday morning. The young ladies made many friends during their stay in Hibbing and Tom says they expect to return soon.— Hibbing News. Sam Heller came up from Duluth on Tuesday evening prepared to float Harry Rowe’s coal mine, but being unable to find the captain he returned a sadder put wiser and much “joshed” man. Editor Freeman E. Krech of the Aitkin Age will please accept the Herald-Review’s congratulations on his recent election as cashier of the Aitkin County bank. Mrs. Carrie M. Woodruff is in Minneapolis this week attending the g | grand lodge, I. O. O. F. as representa- tive ot the local lodge of the Rebekahs. Mr. J. S. Bernie is the delegate from Grand Rapids lodge I. O. O. F. President Gilbert of the First bank received word from his father in-law, Hon. Myron H. McCord, assuring him that there was no doubt of the latter’s confirmation by the senate as governor of Arizona. County Auditor Holden of St. Louis county came up Tuesday eve- ning to do some fishing, but the weather was so disagreeable yesterday that he could not get out. He re- turned home this morning. Capt. Roberts of Crystal Falls, Mich, and Henry C., Foote of Chica- go, were here this week and drove out to examine the Arcturus mine, It is beheved that operations will be- gin on that property in a few days. With about eighty bicyclists in Grand Rapids a club should be formed by the riders and the enjoyment of wheeling would be thus much in- creased. There are some very good paths in and around the village. The St. Cloud Journal Press truth- fully remarks that one of the things that no man, woman or child has ever been able to understand, is why the last day of school is called “the com- mencement.” Manager E. J. Farrell of the Hotel Gladstone, who went as a delegate to represent Pokegama Tent No. 33, K. O. T. M., at the state convention held at Minneapolis last week, was honored by his election as Sergeant of the state organization, Attorney T. F. Brady went to Du- luth Saturday, returning Monday ac- companied by Miss Haben, who re- cently returned froma trip to Passe- dena, Cal. Miss Haben says that al- though California 1s a beautiful coun- try and climate, she is glad to get back to Minnesota again.—Hibbing News, “Judge Stilson and his assistant, Ex- Postmaster Caselberg, moved the post- office furniture and _ fixtures into the |new building on Wednesday, and Grand Rapids has one of the neatest !and most conveniently arranged post- offices in the state. The local lodge of the I. O. O. F. wil hold memorial services at the cemetry next Sunday, in honor of the departed members who have crossed the great divide during the past year. This is one of the customs of the or- der observed throughout the country. As the school term closes tomorrow the severat teachers are preparing to leave for their homes or to visit friends. Prof. Baskerville and Mr. Murphy will go to Duluth, Miss Cleveland will visit in Milwaukee dur- ing vacation; Miss Gibson will return to her home at Brainerd; Miss King goes to Cloquet; Miss McCarthy likes Grand Rapids and will remain here; Mass Allen will attend summer school in Minneapolis. Dr. M. H. Manson took the early train Monday morning for Minneapo- lis to attend the Memerial Day services first, and last, but by no means least, {to spend the balance of the week with his talented wife and grown-up _ child- ren at the family residence, says the Hibbing Sentinel. If there is anyone in Itasca county who doesn’t know all about the fish of Minnesota he should send ro cents to Henry F. Nachtrieb, university of Minnesota, Minneapolis and receive a report of the “Fishes of Minnesota.” Mr. Nachtrieb_ is state zoologist and his report is official. It would b2a mighty handy reference when you want to be dead: sure of the official | name of the fish that is before you on | the table. If the particular boarder at P. J. Sheehan’s Bodega restaurant has dis- covered a preponderance of salad in his megu this week the reason is easily related, says the Hibbing News. Pat’s good wife is taking a (for her) pro- tracted play spell with old friends. Mrs. Sheehan departed on Wednes- day for Grand Rapids, accompanied yy Rev. Fr. Gamache and the Misses Chisholm and Paul. John C. Murphy, who desires to be known to the world as the “Swan River Hermit” paid his respects to this office Tuesday, says the Hihbing News. He was armed with an in- stallment of spring poetry which he thought about the proper thing to scatter broadcast among the people But we informed him that although his poetry may bea good thing, the people had troubles enough of their own and are not in a mood to be trifled with. Fifteen monthsago, a carrier pigeon which had been raised in Cleveland, Ohio, was shipped to G. S. Barnes of Fargo, N. D. Recently its mate died and a few days later the mourning pigeon escaped from its cote and flew home to Cleveland. Instinct which enables a bird to find a path overa thousand miles which it had never seen before is marvellous and the pigeon’s unfailing longing for home is pathetic. A law has been passed which re- quires all barbers to register and pay a ‘fee of $1 within go days from and after the passage of the act, April 21. ‘Those who enter the business after that date must have three years ap- prenticeship with a practical barber and be able to stand examination by the state board, and pay a fee of $5. If the law is ngidly enforced it will do away with the schools which guaran- tee to turn out practical barbers in from six to eight weeks. THE FIREMEN’S DANCE. A Decided Social and Finanelal Success Last Friday Evening. As was meet and proper the at- tendance at the Firemen’s dance last Friday evening was large and those present spent one of the most pleasur- able evenings that the dance-loving people of Grand Rapids have ever en- joyed at Village hall. The patriotic spirit of our people asserted itself and the boys realized a handsome sum to assist in defraying the expense of sending delegates to the state tournament to be held at St. Cloud The ladies of the Episcopal Guild furnished refreshments and realized over $30. Ata meeting of the department held Monday evening last, Chief Ful- ler was chosen to represent the de- partment at large; M. McAlpine and John Metzger from the hook and lad- ler company; John McDonald and G. Lathrop to represent the hose com- pany at the state tournament. Mr. McDonald will not be able to attend, and R. S. Crandall may go in his place. 0. R. I. 0. Entertainment The literary society of the Central school gives its closing entertainment in Village hall tomorrow, Friday eve- ning. ‘The school has gained a reputation for giving strictly first-class concerts and since their motto is “Our Road Is Onward” the patronizing public may expect a greater treat than they have been given before. The proceeds of the entertainment are to be added to a piano fund for the pur- pose of purchasing an instrument for the school. ‘The children have been devoting considerable extra time and hard study to make this entertainment aclimax of their year’s work and Miss Clara Palmer, Duluth’s brilliant violinist, has kindly offered her serv- ices free of charge.

Come early if you want a good seat. Wise Conclusions, Mr. Graffam promises on behalf of the Magnet that the boys shall hence- forth have a care least the Herald- Review should conclude to occupy the field without acontemporary. Under the heading, ‘‘We May Have to Get,” Mr. Graffam, formerly editor of the Review, says in the last issue of the Magnet: “To guard against so dire a calamity will henceforth be our watchword, and we shall endeavor to so regulate our conduct as not to arouse the ire of this terrible censor.” On behalf of his unsophisticated | proteges the emergency editor reasons | wisely for the boys,and we are pleased to note that they understand and ac- cept the situation in a manner be- coming those who have been thrown quid of tobacco might stick if thrown against a master painting. Their calm submission to the friendly advice of a veteran is admirable to-a degree that challenges our admiration. Be good, boys, and be kind to Mr. Graffam and he'll help you out frequently with society notes,grass articles and bright little journalistic retorts calculated to jolly up the Herald-Review. District Court Doings. Business in Judge Holland’s court has progressed very slowly during the past week, owing to the fact that there was little to do on the civil calendar, and the attorneys were not ready to proceed with the criminal cases, until this.morning when the case of the state vs. James Albro, charged with robbery in the first degree, was called. As we go to press a jury 1s being em- panneled. Since the last issue the following actions have been disposed of: F. F. Price vs. C. H. Marr. Ver- dict by jury for plaintiff in the sum of $65. Nels E. Nelson vs. B. R. Lewis et al. To be submitted on briefs. Mi- randa Descent vs. W. F. Sims et al, same, Petitions for the adoption of Laura and Belle Maule we granted. C. H. Marr vs. Armstrong. Judg- ment for plaintiff. A divorce was granted to Lavina Kelly, which relieved her from the care and affections of Wm Kelly. A judgment for the defendants was granted in the case of A. A. Kremer vs W. P. Nisbett et al and a stay of sixty days given. Order over ruling demrrer in case of C. Taylor vs. H. E. Graffam. Timothy Burns vs. The Koochich- ing Co. ‘Taxation of cost of witness Thomas coming before court was dis- allowed. A verdict in favor of Itasca county was returned by the jury in the Porrier case. Millinery at Actual Cost. Mrs. K. C, Lent will place the price of every article in her millinery store at actual cost for the next 30 days. ‘The entire stock will be closed out at these prices. Those in need of anything in the line of millinery goods should call at once and they will be convinced that an opportunity is now oftered to buy goods not likely to be seen in Grand Rapids again for some time. Mks. K. C. Lent A New Fad. The latest fad is a pencil fitted with a tiny electric light, for the conven- ience of reporters. It does not require an electric light to discern the mark made upon the Northwest by the Saint Paul & Duluth Railroad, which for years and years has been the pop- ular route to and between St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, West Superior, Stillwater, Taylor’s Falls and other | points. It is always a favorite with the traveling and general public, which sticks by the Duluth Short | Line. Its modern equipment, fast trains, convenient schedules, smooth roadbed and generally modern and excellent service appeal to the busi- ness man and the tourist, and in con- sequence the people go via the Duluth Sbort Line. For information, maps, folders, circulars and descriptive mat- ter, apply to ticket agents, or wrive direct to C. E, Stone. General Pass Agent, St. Paul, Minn. IMPORTANT NOTICE.
