Mr. Mc: | The Itasca Guu Club. ‘A theeting of our local sportsmen held last Tuesday evening at the Herald-Review office and a gun club was organized with a membership of twenty sure shots. D. W. Doran was elected president; W. P. Brown. secre- tary; E. A. Kremer, treasurer and H. D. Powers, eaptala.f he name by which the new orgSnization will be known is the Itasca Guo Club. Two dollars admission fee will be charged, and those who desire to enjoy the privileges of the club at any shoot will be charged 50 cents. ‘The Ameri- can Association shooting rules were unanimously adopted for the govern- ment of the club. The first shooting of the season was had on Thursday. The wind was bad and consequently the score was low. Grand Rapids has some good shots and the newclub will makea record before tbe season closes. It was decided to meet regularly every ‘Thursday afternoon at 2 o’clock. At Village Hall.

Heroic in size, locally prominent for ability, well known society people of Grand Rapids are billed to appear on Mon- day evening, April 26, at the village hall. Rey.

One hundred and thirty exquisite views of hunting, fishing, mountain- eering, ranching and Indian adven- tures are linked togetuer by a golden thread of descriptive eloquence, the rememberance of which is a joy forever. WILL THE D., S.'& W.-BUILD? That Is the Interesting Question at This End of the Line. bin of the D., S. & W., denies that he cas stated to the ‘Deer River newslet inf Bout, the only anaicstion. that there the road would be extended this sum mer, “provided sufficient funds could be raised.” A denial was un necessary. Henry Hughs will visit fnends in Illinois and Wisconsin for three or four weeks leaving next Wednesday. Charles Dickenson will act as deputy treasurer during Mr. Hughes absence. It 1s authoratively reported that A. G. Bernard has at last decided to shake the dust of Itasca county from his hoofs and establish himself in the newspaper business at Wallker in Cass county. Fortunate——Fitsea——poor The ladies of the Episcopal Guild met at the old-school house, Saturday April r7th., 1897, and the following officers elected for the ensuing year Mrs. C. M. Storch, president; Mrs. F. A. King,, vice president; Grace Pellow, secretary; Lou Nisbett, treasurer. It 1s yet too early in the season to make an_ interesting news report of what the Grand Rapids station will do during the comming summer in the way of new’ developments, but it is the intention of the Herald-Review to keep the public posted from time to time upon the workings of this im- portant agency in the progress of northern Minnesota. It appears to be in order just now to organize companies for gold pros- | pecting in the Rainy Lake district, and beyond to the Canadian harvest fields of the precious metals. Why not a few of us Grand Rapigs capital- ists get together and “cop oft” a few million shiners to add to our vast ac- cumulations. They. say the gold’s there. Sammie Mareno, the Deer River y whose forehead was pierced by a nail, died yesterday at the Ehle & Russell hospital. It appears ihat while playing with the nail’ in his hand he fell upon its sharp point and injured the brain.) Mr. and Mrs. George Mareno. will take the remains to their former home at Cumberland, Wis., for interment. MZ Rev. and Mrs. D. D. McKay of Brainerd, arrived last evening, and to- morrow Mr. McKay will conduct services at the Presbyterian church. Mr. and Mrs. McKay will be warmly welcomed by their large circle of friends: here. Mr. McKay was paster of the Presbyterian church here more than a year and was very popular ayong all classes. Our old-time frt€nd C. C. Kelly ar- 4 rived from Aitkin Friday evening, and he willremain during the season as ‘representative of the Minneapolis Boom company to prevent L. F, Knox from stealiug stray logs for his saw mill. This may sound a little severe, but it should not be taken that Mr. Knox is in the habit of pilfering saw logs, because he is not. It is a part of the business of the boom company to keep a lookout wherever a mull is in operation and of course no. except- 1on is made. Mr. Kelly is a valuable member of society, a true sportsman, | a genial gentleman, a newspaper con- tributor of rare ability, and the Her- ald-Review extends to him a cordial weléome, be any railroad building in this immediate vicinity during the coming summer 1s the dead calm that now ex- ists over the official horizon of the D., S. & W., and the persistency with which all in authority proclaim an entire lack of any knowledge as to what may be done‘ Without ex- ception railroad build€fs are very re- ticent as to their proposed movements until actual operations are begun. Yet, there are those who do not hesi- tate tosay that the D. S. & W. will be extended westward during 1897, but no one in a_ position to know has a word to say. ‘I'he Deer River paper prints an alleged quotation from Gen- eral Manager Philbin to the effect that road building would begin west- ward irom Deer River at once, if money could be raised for that pur- pose, and in his opinion the required capital would be forthcoming. But Mr. Philbin didn’t say anything of the kind. Menin his position are not imparting information of such im- portance to the Deer River journalist ahead of time. Itis to be hoped, however, that-the terminal town sage guessed correctly what Mr. Philbin might have truthfully said. Concerning: a proposed air line direct from Duluth to the Twin Cities, the Duluth Herald of Wednesday says: John Grant, the railroad contractor, of Faribault, was in the city today. Mr. Grant is interested in the project to build an independent air liue rail- road from Duluth-to the Twin Cities, which has been hanging fire for some time. It has been rumored recently that his brother Donald Grant and a syndicate of capitalists had taken hold of the enterprise and that they had succeeded in obtaining all the capital required to build and equip the road and that they were only waiting fora favorable turn. in the general business situation to warrant them in beginning the actual work of construction. While here today Mr. Grant was non-communicative con- cerning the plans of the company, but said positively that before the summer was far advanced the dirt would begin to tly on the grade. This railroad enterprise was a few years ago given a great deal of atten- tion in railroad circles. Its project- ors, among whom were Donald Grant, W. H. Fisher, Moses Clapp; A-'S. and K. D. Chase. claimed that a‘ line could: be constructed between Duluth and St. Paul and Minneapolis “that would be shorter than any in exist- ence, that it would haveeasier grades and could he built at.such a compara- tive small cost that it would not only be able to make a great reduction in rates, but would make much better time than is possible for either the Eastern Minnesota or the St.Paul & Duluth. The road- would. pass through a large body of pine timber that could be brought to the Duluth market and would of itself‘furnish a large amount of business. “As Mr. Grant is very conservative on all mat- ters pertaining to railroad construc- tion his statement that work would commence on this line this year is significant. Notice to Water Consumers. Grand Rapids,-Apr. 18,.1897. Notice 1s hereby given that-the vil- lage council at.a meeting held on April 17th, 1897, adopted a resolution instructing the Village. ‘Recorder to. notify delinquent water consumers that if water rents are not~paid-by May ist next, water will be shut off from their premises. nears Frep A. Kine, rdson & Stevens handle wall Village Recorder: ‘and Collecter of # } Water eres Ot" barrell in the wagon, told Kingston and the others where to put it, but claimed that he had no knowledge of what it contained, where it came from, or why the party had gone out at that unseemly hour. He had asked no questions and claimed to be en- tirely innocent. Prosecuting Attorney McCarthy concluded that his testi- mony sounded more like a fish story than corned beef evidence and a war- rant for his arrest followed. All three’ of the accused stoutly maintained their innocense, but evidence adduced was pretty strong. Bonds have not yet been furmshed, but the prisoners hope to be out on bail in a few days. Mr. Surprise was permitted to go on his own recognizance, THE SUGAR BEET QUESTION. Seeds May be Had by Making Application at the Herald-Review. A number of farmers in this vicinity have determined to plant trial plots of sugar beets for the purpose ot testing the adaptability of the soil of Itasca county, and the Herald-Review will aid them in every way- possible to ob- tain the desired results. Any farmer who will leave his address at the of- fice will be prompaly . supphed -with the best improved seed, or application may be made for the same through Superintendent Pendergast of the Ex- perimental farm. .. Press bulletins is- sued by the University Experiment Station at St. Anthony Park, giving full directions for the “planting and cultivation of sugar beets will also be supplied to those who desire them. A test plot should be, cultivated in Itasca county by a large number of farmers and gardeners. . This can be done on a small scale with compara- tively little expense, and. the result will demonstrate beyond any doubt whether this portion of Minnesota can produce sugur beets profitably or not. A Case of Cruelty. A dispatch from Little Ealls, Minn.. to a Minneapolis paper says: “A large amount of comment 1s going on over the acts of the posoffice officials of this city. In the windows of the office in which people are in the habit of sitting while waiting for their mail, a contrivance has been placed so that by pulling a string in the of- fice, pins will come up between the cracks 1n the boards, causing the peo- ple much pain.” Here's an idea for Postmaster .Coselberg. He should adopt the scheme or something simi- larly effectual to operate on the young hoodlums -who visit the postoffice every evening with a regularity that has never yet been known to fail. ‘These youngsters are an intolerable nuisance about the postoffice ¢orridor, with their noise and playtul “scrap- ping.” It is the duty of the village It is a Faet Itasea Tailoring Gompany; recently located here from Duluth, is turning out goods at a reduction of nearly 50 per cent below prices formerly charged in Grand Rap- ids, and we will tell you why: Lacraihrn | aa ieee) y with SECOND—All we ask isa Lega the largest wholesale houses able margin on our work an in the United States, and buy goods, and we find that this for cash, and they have the advantage of Hace years ex- can be obtained by selling suits from perience in the business.
