He says that the Beltrami county seat is just more than booming —buildings going up all over, public improvements being made and real estate away up. The new Markhem hotel is, according to the senator a dandy. It has steam heat, electric hghts, baths, and all the conveniences of a first-class place. It was just com- pleted a week or so ago, and three days after the opening it was crowded to its utmost capacity. If any one wishes to stop at Joe Markham’s house they want to fly when. they get off the -train and have: their room as- signed or they will get left. Senator McCarthy thinks that Bemidji has a great future if the town is not over- boomed. Something Extra Fine. Mr. Frank Finch, ormerly of Omaha and Somx City, is now in the employ of ). .F. Metzger. Mr. Finch is an expert sausage maker and is second to none 1n his profession. Metzger’s sausages have always been considered excellent, but now it would! be simply impossible to beat ‘them. Goods such as compressed pig’s feet, \that have never before been made in |this town, can now ‘be found, and of the very best, at Metzger’s. But sausages are not the only good things tobe found at this popular store. 2:50 p.m.,and!‘The very choicest cuts of beef, mut- ton, veal and pork are always to be had there. An extra fine line of poultry. Vegetables of ail kinds that are at present on the market. What- ever you want that can be found in any first-class meat market, Metz- ger is sure to have it. Fi Very Poor Show. ‘The grand pywotechnic display that was scheduled to take place souseume between Monday might and Thursday morning, was but another of those ex- tensively advertised fakes that fail to materialize. A large number of our citizens sat up tili long after midnight for two or three nights this week hop- ‘ing that the promised metoric shower would take place, and were rewarded for ther vigilence by catching sight of one or two dim sky-voyagersfor a few seconds. ‘These meteors were only what careful ob- servation would reveal on almost arty clear night, and the watchers went to bed disgusted. When the next show of the same character is expected, which will be sixty-six years hence, very few of those who sat up this week will pay any attention to it. Draft: Merses For sale. FF. Seamans_ has_ just returued from a trip to South Dakota where he purchased two car loads o! fine draft horses for sale here and at Deer River. One car load will be sold here andthe other at Deer River. These are all large animals selected especially for work in the woods and will no douot be readily taken by lumbermen. Things Worth Mentioning J. D. Powers’ store improves in ap- pearance as it takes on age, The stock is constantly increasing and what is still more gratifying trade 1s improving right along. He hi fine line of German socks, mackinaw jeans, coats, duck suits, overalls, pants, mittens, gloves, rubbers, ing shoes, and boots, ladies, and u rubbers and arti Prices are 1 ght on all these goods. A Wenderful Dispizy. About this ume every year Will Nisbett begins to rec-1ve his holiday good, and ‘these are always magnifi- cent. “his year, however, he has put in 2 stock that easily eclipses all his Is- this former displays. especially true concerning watches. 1s full of them, the show ¢ and boxes filled with timepieces are scattered around —prormiscuously, There are watches that run eight days with one winding; watches that tell the time of day, the day of the week and the date; watches that strike every minute if you wish them to; automatic watches that record the hour and minute without ton hole; blind men’s watches; watch- es as round as a ball and watches as thin as a dollar, About the only thing in the watch line that Nisbett can’t show is one that will run for- ever without being wound or one that will tell a person’s age and the day of his birth. Mr. Nisbett has bought these watches tor the purpose of sell- ing them, and in order to do this he everybody. But there is not much use of our trying to tell you about these goods and prices. You will have to see them in order to appre- ciate them. Powers’ Budget. Booth’s populae brands of cigars are sold by J. D. Powers. He also carries many other famous brands and and chewing. For woolen underwear of all kinds go to J. D. Powers’ general store. blankets. If you are in need of comforters or or bed spreads go to J. D. Powers’ store. J. D.

Wages will be paid in cash every Saturday night. House for Rent ” The Fred Lawrence house 1s for rent. Eight dollars per month. Ap- ply to George Vient. Stood Death Of. E B. Munday, a lawyer of Henri- etta, Tex., once fooled a grave-digger. He says: ‘*My brother was very low with malarial fever and jaundice. I persuaded him to try Electric Bitters and he was soon much better, but continued their use until he was wholly cured. I am sure Electric Bitvers saved his life.” This remedy expels malaria; kills disease germs and purifles the blood; aids digestion, regulates liver, kidneys and bowels, cures constipation, dyspepsia, nerv- ous troubles, female complaints; ives perfect health.
