Their le: to the place expired on May ist and it was supposed that A, H. Powers was about to sell the same. ‘The deal did not develope as was ex- pected and arrangements were made whereby the place will remain in the hands ‘of McAlpmne & McDonald. ‘This news will .be received with a feelng of gladness by the many friends that Mr. and Mrs. McDonald have made dunng their residence in Hib- } and by the patrons of the house. gemal manager, J.

Chapman of | the experiment staticn has had a birthday party or two every day lately nd as a result the quantity of live stock at the farm has been increased by about twenty head of lambs. They are not through yet, either, and about iorty little pets of the kind Mary is reported to he had are expected to shortly arrive. This 1s the first brood of lambs bom at the farm and the management 1s much interested to see how they thrive. ‘The newcomers are half-blood Oxfords, and Mr. Chap- man thinks that they will be hardy and develop into excellent , mutton sheep. o ng Waiting For Lumber. Sidewalk building is not progressing over twice as fast asit might be, Street Commissioner McCormick in- forms us that the reason for this is that there is no lumber. It seems that there has been a break down at the Dunn & Marcia mill at Cohasset from which place the lumber will be brought. W, V. Fuller & Co., who will do the planing, have also Leen putting ,a new boiler into their plant, but are now im working order. It is likely that sidewald building will commence in good earnest next week. Pat Sexton Killed. Patrick Sexton, of the cigar manu- facturing firm of Sexton & Co,, St. Paul was killed at that city inthe storm of Sunday evening, Mr. Sex- ton was out driving with his four children when the storm overtook them.

More Railroad Business. 3 The Everleth Star says: The East- ern Minnesota has awarded a con- tract to A. Guthrie & Co., St. Paul to build a line from Stony Brock, on the Fosston ne to connect with its Hib- bing-Virginia ‘extension. Work will begin soon. “‘ihe new line will be about fifty miles in Jength and it will parallel the Missabe road from Moun- tar. Iron to Stony Brook, The new line will begin a mile west of Stony Brock on the Fosston branch and rin perth to the Hibbing-Virginia line. Missabe road. The line wili cut off a haul of about thirty miles om the ore handled by the company, and besides it’ will relieve the Foston line of con- siderable’ traffic and and ease matters so that gram may come more freely. It will not be used this year, however, as it will probably not be completed in time, Why He Couldn’t Pay. A story was. recently told of how a minis.er tested the effect of hard times upon his congregation. At the con- clusion of one of his sermon’s he said: “Let all in the house who pay their debts stand up.” Instantly every man, woman and child with one ex- ception rose to their feet, He seated the crowd and said: “Let every man who is not paying his debts stand up.” The exception noted, a care worn, | hungry individual, assumed a perpen- dicular position, leaning heavily upon the back cf the seat in front of him, “How is itmy friend, nquired the minister, that you are the only man in this large congregation who is un- able to meet his obligations?” ‘I pub- lish a newspaper,” he meekly replied, and my brethren here who have just stoot up are my subscribers and he “Let us pray,” said the minister.—Ex. Frank Murpny’s Comedians. The above named troup played “Shanty Town” here on Wednesday night, and “Hans Hanson” on Thurs- day. ‘The aggregation is not the worst in the world but it would make a great race for that honor. The plays are roaring wonders—that is, the actors do the roaring, while the audi- ence wonders what it is there for. “Shanty Town” is’ tolerable but the other is atrocious. RA Very Small Error. Occasionally a mistake occurs in a newspaper. Sometimes.such mistake, while small, may cause a lot ot trouble. It was so with the Herald- Review last week. In our article on the tax sale we stated that a check for $200 had been received and refused and that finally the full amount, “$17.74,” had been paid. That httle j period between the figures made all the difference in the world. It should have been $1774.” - Br. Forbes for Bishop. Dr. Robert Forbes, presiding elder of this district of the M. E. Church, 1s one of the prominent members of the conference of that denomination at Chicago, and his name has been promineatly mentioned for a place as bishop. Dr. Forbes has nothing but friends in this section, and they ali hope that he may receive the merited promotion. We Fre Not Frightened.
