RAPS LENO RR HNL, EEDA: EO SPECIAL SCHOOL | MEETING. The Auditing Committee Reports That Treasurer's Books Are All Right, At the spectal school meeting held on Saturday evening the committee appointed to examine the books of ‘freasurer Kremer reported that they had found everything absolutely cor- rect and the books kept in the best possible condition. The committee also reported that in their opinjen the district was to be congratulated on the make-up of its school, board, was evident that the body was and economically ad- ministering its affairs. The gentle- men appointed to ai s an advisory committee in the pureh: of a fence for the school grounds reported that. they had not been able to get a meet- ing, but advised that Inds be adyer- tised for. This has been done, and the committee and the board will mest on Monday to decide the matter. The report of the auditing committee is highly gratity- ingas it completely refutes the in-* sinuation that irregularities @xisted in the financial department .of the There does not scem conscientiously school board. to have been the slightest excuse for st sing that-the treasurer,s books were not absolutely corr but inas- much as one member of the board raised the question, Mr, Kremer courted the investigation, and the re- sult must be decidedly satisfactory. The people will remember this, and uso the individual who made the charges. THEY COULD NOT COME, Discovery of a Case of Small Pox at Hibbing Prevents Excursion Last Sunday. Last Saturday noon word was re- ceived here that a case of small pox had distovered at Hibbing. The information came from a source tbat left no doubt as to its authen- been ticity. Dr. H. M. Brack of the state board of health, arrived from the iron town and informeds our health officer, Dr. Russell, of the con- ! dition existing at the neighboring town, and advised that the excursien ! arranged to take place on Sunday be postponed. There was no cour: epen but to comply and Dr. Russ immediately telegraphed the man- ager of the ba!l club, under whose auspices the excursion was given, that public safety demanded that the affair should not take place. ‘This was highly disappointing both to the people here and at Hibbing. Gur citizens had made. all arrangements for the reception and entertainment of the visitors, and these, in turn, had made all arrangements to come. It isto be hoped, however, that the matter will again be taken up and made a success of. The local ball club is trying to bave the excursion take place as soon as the danger from contagion is over, which we all hope will be soon. The business men of the village donated liberally toward the club’s purse, and should the af- fair fall through entirely this money will be returned. THE BO. BLOOMERS. Champion Base Ball Club Will be Here on Tuesday Next. Ladies’ One of the most exciting and inter- esting games of the season will take place in this city on Tuesday, Aug. 7, hetween the Ladies’ Champion Base all club of Boston, and the Grand Rapids team. The Boston Bloomers is ihe usual title given this famous Jadies’ base ball club. They are justly entitled to the same, as they always appear upon the field to bat- tle for supremecy, dressed in the twenticth century garb—the bloom- eis. This organization of female ball players is the only ladies’ bal! club in America. The team was first crgan- ized in 1893. This is their seventh annual tour. Dheclub is under the management of Mr. W. P. Needham, and they travel in their own palace car. During the past six years this organization has traveled extensively and visited all the large cities in America and both provinces of Canada. The club has been strengthened from year to year, each member selected for her ability to execute and fill her particular position in a man- ner satisfactory and becoming a member of this, the champion ladies’ base ball club of the world.

The doctor informs us that the danger from this dread dis- e is more than imaginary. . He ys that we should not be surprised more cases were found to exist in this vicinity. Winter is coming on and with the influx of woodsmen and the daily visitations from unsanitary camps, the danger is greatly aug- mented. He advises all. to get vac- cinated who have not already done so. He has a supply of vacine points and anyone wishing to apply the preyent- ative cau be accommodated. He Was Not Crazy. The authorities over at Hibbing last week sent word that they hada crazy man belonging to us. We had not lost any crazy man that anyone knew of, but Deputy Sheriff Keorney brought him here as it was claimed he was a resident of Itasca county. He wa adjudged insane on Monday by Judge Brady, but County Attorney Donohue filed a protest saying that the chap had simply imbibed too j much Hibbing whiskey, and instead ofsending him to Fergus Falls, or- dered him to the county hospital, where Superintendent McHugh will try to bleach him out. Dr. Gilbert says that the county attorney dis- covered that the man was a Demo- crat and did not wish to send a voter out of the county until after election. This, howevér, is uot generally be- lieved. Feasted His Friends. On Tuesday evening last the bache- lor quarters of Th.

On Wednesday, August Jdth, the school board of district No. 1 will sell to the highest bidder the old school building which now stands in the school yard. This action on the part of the board will meet with gen- eral approwal, as the building is of no use to ihe district and practically no revenue is derived fram it as it stands. It cost considerable money to put the building up, and it will probably be sold at a Sacrifice, but even this is better than that it shouid become a total loss either through fire og other agencies.
