Bond Issue Carried The special election held last Tues day to authorize the issuance of 625,+ 000 of village bonds for the purpose of securing municipal ownership of at electric light plant for Grand Rapids, was carried by a vote of nearly two to one. That the bonds will readily sell at 5 per cent there is no doubt. It does not necessarily follow that the council will purchase the plant.owned by John Beckfelt, but is quite probable that they will do,s@. This seems to be the general v r4j of the people as expressed at the a uo Tuesday. As soon as the are disposed of the work of constrac> tion will be begun. Sheep in Northern Minnesota, The owner of an undeveloped fatm in northern Minnesota is confronted with the problem of how to utilizeias much of the resources at his com- mand as possible. The chief of these is the large expanse of wild brush pasture. Cattle will select the grass and pea vines and and will not brouse on leaves to any extent except when pasture is scant. But sheep will eat nearly all kinds of brush as well as weeds, and will do fairly well on such fecd, althoug for best results they should have some grass or other feed. The closer sheep are confined the more pronounced is the effect of their a baie upon brush. Sheep will no4 kill brush which stands tov high for them to reach, beat when this is slashed down, they will absolutely prevent its sprouting again. Sprouts around the base of stumps are kept down, wild growth as ferns, killed and in from two to four years’ tine depending on the closeness of the pasturing, such ground can be broken with almost as much ease as an old field. ‘The roots will be found fo have decayedvery fast, and stumps especially hard wood, can be removed much sooner and cheeper where sheep have worked around them for two or three years, than is ordinary the case. ‘The labor of caring for sheep is light work except during lambing, when the flock requires the closest attention. During the sum- mer it amounts to almost nothing. The profits from sheep accrue from sale of wool, and the increase of the flock, and from the fact that they nob only utilize feed which would other- wise be utterly wasted, but in so do- ing, do a great amount of work to- wards clearing up the land which would otherwise have to be done by human labor. The drawbacks are cost of fencing, possible losses from dogs or wild animals, and, with inex- perienced or careless persons, im- proper handling, especially in winter, resulting usually in the loss of the lambs. None of these objections are such as should deter any one from go- ing into sheep raising if he is pre pared to give them the attention necessery to success. Constant at- tention to the welfare of the sheep isas necessary as it is with any other class of live stock. HERMAN H. CHAPMAN.

A Qinetiod o@, Paying Saloon, Lysonses Warrants have bao dusued for the artést of the seven salounkeepers at Deer River and thereby much trouble is looked for in the near future, ‘There are two elements in our neigh- boring town that do not appear to harmonize 1 their conclusions of law and facts. Mesars. James Sullivan, Willis & Fulwood and C. W. Robia- son are tmembers of the present vil- igé tounct! and are also engaged in saloon business. W. J, Kelly, Geotge T. Robinson and Andy Mor- ftissy refused to pay their anoual iicenses into the village treasury on the ground that as-at present consti- tuted the village organization of Deer River has no legal existance. Wartants have been issued for their attest and a hearing set for Saturday July 2, before Justice Huson at Grand Rapids. Warrants have also ‘been issued for the arrest and prose- cution of Sullivan, Willis & Fulwood and C. W. Robinson for having sold liquor without a licence although it is said that they have paid the re- quired amounts into the treasury. Freight Train Collision: About 7:30 o'clock last evening there was a rear end collision of a logging and freight train at Wellers Spur. No 53 west bound local freight was standing at the spur unloading some freight when the logging train ap- proached from the rear. The oncom- ing log train could be seen fora dis- tance of two miles, but it came thundering alung, and half a dozen passengers on the local made their escape to terra firma just as it crash- ed into the standing caboose. ‘The only person injured was the engineer on the logging train, whose leg was broken. The cabuuse and five cars were ditched and badly wrecked. The sun was shining directly in the face of the approaching train. This is the only way the accident can be accounted fur. A wrecking ‘train went west to pick up the remuins of the demolisbed cars. Engineer Cole, the injured man, was taken to Cass Lake. Se rete <i “Will Be The Best. s A. C. Bossard, one of the principals in the company that is erecting the new paper mill at Grand Rapids, was in the city yesterday und took the firsttrain for St. Paul. Mr. Bosssard is an experienced paper manufacturer from the Fex River Valley and knows what 3 paper mill should be like. He declares that the Grand Rapids plant will be as fine in point equipments and modern improve- ments as any in the country. ‘Every thing is moving along well in con- nection with the construction work,” said Mr, Bossard tu a News Tribune retorter in Duluth. “The founda- tion work is all done and a consider- able portion of the walls are up. We made ample preparations last winter and that bas greatly facilitated our construction work. The building will be entirely of stone, brick and steel, and built for warmth as well as strength and permanence. The ther- mometor has a habit of crawling right down into the cellar in that locality.” Elks at Milwaukee. The Elke’ carnival decoraticns bave already begun © appear on Grand avenue, Wisconsin street and adjac- ent throughfares. The Elks’ colors, purple and white, so far predominate those of any others. The American flag appears as splashes and dots here and there. ‘Tbousandsof Elks’ de- signs are seen, surrouuded by Ameri- can flags. Electric lights will also form an important partof the de- corations, 2,000 of them covering one prominent building alone. One of the largé hotels on Grand avenue will have enormous antlers with a spread of forty feet over its portico. Three hundred electrict will gleam from these antlers, a panerama of purple aud white. ‘The street arches of elec- trict lights along the main streets are in place and the citv hall is to be ‘beautifully illuminated, Tne carni val committee expects to make a dis play un Grand avenue bridge to sur- | pass anything ever attempted in de- corating line in Milwaukee.—Milwau- kee Sentinel.

FUEL FROM CARBAGE Pek y Street One of the modern methods of €ie- posing of garbage is to burn it. Ig. “England experiments have been madq. fm the interest of economy, with the immediate utilisation of the heat thug produced. Steam engines and dyma- mos for electric lighting have been aa- soctated with garbage “destructors.” Lord Kelvin evinced great enthusi- asm over and confidence in this prope Osition three or four years ago. The latest development of the idea hag Possibly been suggested by the present high price of coal in Europe. At amy rate, a new form of fuel has just made its appearance in London, and it is composed chiefly of street sweapiags and Thames mud. This material ig subjected: to chemical treatmeat the tensive industry in substance like pitch is employed to bind the solid or semi-solid particles together. The compound is subjected to high pressure and a temperature of 300 or 400. degrees Fahrenheit. When burned the fuel yields @ may amount of powdery residue. The blocks produced by this process are called “fuelettes” and are sold for thre farthings each. One is said to be sufficient to cook a light breakfast. something in his pocket: “Ob, sir, { feel that providence must have sent mp to you!” And the reply came with o twinkle in his benefactor’s eye: us hope, however, that providence wi} not acquire a habit of doing so.” eviminal so many months in jail she is sent, no matter how terrible is her record, to one or other of the convents devoted for the purpose and there kept auring the tite for which she is sen- senced.
