Fred had one of the most valuable claims in this vicinity and the Herald-Review is pleased to re- cord that he made a very good sale. Henry Tuller came down from Deer River Friday to look after some business affairs here. He says the company’s new store at the terminal town is about completed, and busi- ness will be commenced therein early next week. Says the Aitkm Age: “Wilhe Marr} of Grand Rapids, arnved last Satur- day evening ona visit to his uncle, Wm. Burns Marr. Young William came unaccompanied from Carlton, and feels that he is is of some import- ance after that achievment.” J. A. Quigg came down from Deer River this morning. He had just re- turned from a ‘visit to the St. Louis county fair, and unhesitatingly de- clares that the exhibits of farm pro- ducts in that county did not begin to compare with the showing that Itasca } makes once a year. !-- Commissioner A. E. Wilder was in from the Prairie river district today. He reports that work on the county roads in that direction is about com- pleted for this year.

He brought up.acrew of men to work at Deer River and another for the camps on Swan river. Mr. Sims says that wages are considerably increased over the scale that prevailed during the past two years. Inthe woods wages will average from twenty to twenty-six dollars a month. D. W. Doran, president of the Agricultural association, requests the Herald- Review to call the attention | of the committee on arrangements for the coming fair to the necessity of taking immediate action in the matter of ‘selecting a plece for holding the same. It is his opinion that the old pavilion on the south side could be cheaply put in shape to accommodate the exhibits this year, anc that it would be much more desirable for the purpose than the Knox warehouse. Jeweler Will Nisbett returned from Duluth on Wednesday, where he had been before the district court in ‘the prosecution .of his suit for damages against the Chicago concern that farm for more than five years without | Itasca county witnesses in the case just closed at Munneapolis—in which the Pine Tree Logging company de- fended against the claims of the gov-. ernment—have been arriving home all week, quite a number coming last evening. George _Lydick, C. H. Seelye and George Gilbraith were among the late arrivals: The case went to the jury yesterday. The opinion 1s expressed among those who gave testimony that a verdict will be returned in favor of the de- | fendants. James McCormick, a brother of J. #., who recently left Grand Rapids for the Seine River gold district, in- forms the Herald-Review that Frank has written concerning his gold claim, and if what he avers is half in sight, the former drayman of Grand Rapids is hkely to return in a short time with a few hundred thousand dollars. The expert who explored the property in company with Mr. McCormick says it will sel!’ for a half a million dollars. If this figure 1s cut in two half a dozen times, he will still be in great luck. The Herald-Review most sincerely hopes that the reports already receiv- ed may not be exaggerated. If you see anything prowling about the country that has the appearance of a horseless carriage, and guided by George Moore of Cohassett, bossed by Dan Doran and attended by two.r three other well-known Itascans, don’t be- come alarmed. It’s tame and harm- less. The five-horse engine that Mr. Doran had im use for threshing on his farm was found insufficient to do the work and it was necessary to get more power. The sixteen-horse engine that George Cox used last winter at Cohassett was secured from Mr. Baumbach of the Itasca Mercantile company, and was taken to the Doran farm. ‘The Experimental thresher is being used. ‘There will be consider- able threshing to do in this county during the next month. On the Doran farm there will Le between six and seven hundred bushels of oats. ‘The average yield promises to be very satisfactory.

Of all love affairs in the world, none can surpass the love of a noble boy for his mother. Next to the love of a husband, nothing so crowns a woman’s life with honor as this devo- tion of a son to her. And I never yet knew a boy to turn out badly who truly loves his mother. Any man may fall in love with a fresh-faced girl, and the man who is ga!lant with the girl may cruelly neglect the worn and weary wife. But the boy who is a lover of his mother in her middle age is a true knight who will love his wife as much in the sere- leaved ausumn as he did is the daisy spring-time. —Selected.
