ARCTURUS OPTION AT $50000 Three-Quarters of a Million Dollars to Be Paid For the Property—The Buckeye Promises Well—Ex- ploring on Sec. 1 in 60-24. There is no Jonger any doubt in the minds of those who have noted the explorations for iron ore on this end of the Mesaba range, which have been in progress during the past year, that valuable Mines in this yicinity. will soon be among the shippers. The Great Northern railway company commened investigation some time ago, and the showing made by expert mining men who were sent out by the company, was evidently satisfac- tory. The Great Northern immedi. ately begaa to take optivus and buy up everything available on the range, and as a result that company has ac- quired title to thousands of acres of land. Northern has hada crew of men at work on section 1 township 60, range 24. Twodrills have been in opera- tion and itis reported this week that day and night crews will be kept busy from now on. Several Grand Rapids men own land in line with the Great Northern property and they began to feel that there may be fortunes in store forthem. . Capt. M. L. Fay and C. E. Fay of Virginia were here this week looking over the work now in progress on the Buckeye. Captain Fay is the principal owner of this property, and it would appear that he is entirely satisfied with the developments thus far made. It is rather a difficult matter to learn just what mining men do think of tbe showing made by their preliminary work, but itis generally safe to guess that operators ofexperience, such as Capt. Fay, do not. sink money in the ground unless they areconvinced tha what they seek will be found in- ebundance. P. A. Coffey and John Costin of Virginia are the principal owners of the option on the Holman property inIrun Range township, for which they are to pay $30,000 about the first of April, the time the option expires. ‘The money is in readiness and will be paid fur the fee, as the gentlemen in- terested are convinced that they have a good thing and do not propose to allow it to slip through their hands. About two weeks ago $50,000 was paid fur one year’s option on the Arc- turus property. Seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars is the consider- ation if thedeal is closed for the fee within a vear. P. L. Kimberly of Sharron, Pa., is the buyer, and St. Cloud and Minneapolis parties are the present owners. A. E. Kribs and L., H. Ickler have been putting down some test pits on sections 19 and 20, township 53, range 25 from which they haveetaken some fine specimens of ore. They will shortly putin drills and fully deter- mine the extent of the deposit on their land. THE COMMISSIONER’S DOINGS Fee of Poor Farm For $25,000 on Year’s Op. tion—Ferry Across Pokegama Lake The two days’ meeting of the board of county commissioners held last week resulted in the passage ofa number of bills, the referring of others to committees, some consideration of a number of wants and protests, the making of two or three appropriations For several months the Great erald-Mex* %, 7 Qn zg Two Dotuars a YEAR. igor. and $50 was given to aid in ‘construction of a bridge from the 4 aa land to Crawford's island in -26, ADDITIONAL SUHOOL ROOM The Rising Generation of Grand Rapids Has ~~ Outgrown School Accommodations ~The question of additional public School room for the accommodation the rapidly increasing number of prot isone that 1s just now giving @ board of district No. 1 no little concern. While the eight rooms of Central school building have a seat- ing capacity of four hundred it is already crowded beyond the point of comfort and some of the rovms are Overtaxed to a degree that renders the best results impossible. When the present building was constructed in 1894 it was thought that room had been provided for many years to come. ‘In fact there were those who declared that the town did not need.so large or expensive a building. Very few thought at that time that Grand Rapids would so soon outgrow the handsome and commodious school Structure that was then provided. It is evident that addional room must be had at once, the only question be- ing: Where shall we build? There are some who argue that a site separ- ate from that of Central schoul should selected for the reason that it Would add another handsome build- ing to the village and at the same time be located for the convenient ac- commodation of a large number of pupils. There are others who see Many advantages in building an ad- dition to Central. 1t is set forth ‘that there is ample room on the north side tu increase the size of the present building sufficiently to meet the present needs. It is also pointed ‘out that while Central building is ad- mirably adapted for grade work it is not fitted for high school purposes. Toall high schools of Minnesota the state contributes one thousand dol- lars yearly, In order to receive this amount, however, certain require- ments must be complied with, such us lahoratories, etc. This our pres- ent school does not posses. An as- sembly room is also necessary in modern schools, and could be provid- ced. for with Central. The matter of econo- my is another important considera- tion that is urged by many who have given the subject thought. The same heat, water and number of em- ployes would -do the same ser- vice for the enlarged building that is required at present. By con- centrating the school work much bet- ter discipline prevails and greater satisfaction to both pupils and parents follows. Perhaps the most difficult feature of the problem would bein the selection of a site-that would give satisfaction to any con- siderable number of citizens. ITASCA ROAD AGAIN. Report ‘Has It That The Extension Is Sure to Be Made North to Koochiching. Furrher confirmation of the report that the Itasca Lumber company’s road is to be extended to the Cana- dian boundry has been obtained from reliable sources, asys the Duluth News Tribune. The road is to be pushed through to Keochiching withcut any unnec- essary delay. W. T. Joyce of Chicago is the moving spirit, and it is claimed that the completion of the line from Dees River to Rainy river is only a part of the plan of this gentleman and his associates. Mr. Joyce propos- es to build south from Deer River to the Twin cities. In other words it would be adirect north and south line from the Twin cities to Kooch- iching. . Itis reported that J.J. Hillis in- terested in this proposition, and in and the acceptance of an offer to sell the mineral right of the poor farm tor $25,000° to B. C: Finnegan, et al., the buyers to have one year in which to close the deal and pay up if the property suits them after investigation. Should a valuable mine be developed on the property the helders of the fee have certainly made a good deal. It was decided by the board to put a ferry boat at Huff's arm across Pokegama lake, about five miles south of town, for the accommodation ot Hill City people and others who are making homes on the other side of Pokegama. ‘The total.cost of putting in the ferry will not exceed $400. The advisability of putting in a bridge was considered, but the board felt that the county could not well afford to expend $5,000 or $6,000 for that purpose at this time. Two hundred and fifty dollars was appropriated to aid in the construc- tion of a bridge across Popple river in ECTIVE PAGE the same connection it is reported that he previously tried to get con- trol of the Duluth, Virginia & Rainy Lake road, but the owners refused a very flattering offer. The proposed line of the road south of Deer River is through Nille Lacs county, and striking the east shore of Mille Lace lake. This would bring the new line to a connection with the Easterp Minnesota near Groundhouse and itis possible the road will use that line from there, or some point in’ the vicinity, into the Twin cities. If, as supposed, J. J. Hill is interest- ed, itis expected that this arrange- ment will be made. The new line will cross the Northern Pacific near Kimberly. A nucleus of the proposed road from the Twin cities to, the Rainy River is found in the 30 miles of track already constructed by the Itasca Lumber company, by building in connection | Dry Goods > For Spring and Summe Are new and tresh at HUGHES & C0, Suits, Skirts, Goats #2cez the fashion makers have outdone themselves in their prepara- tious for this year’s Easter costumes for women. ‘The styles are particulary graceful and attractive, the fabrics. are un uasually rich and varied in Jexturefand:colorings, in our store] at least, the assortment is the largest ever shown. ete than ever, Our Shoe Department «3 are proud of it because we feel that our patrons will find just what will please thom in style and give excellent satisfaction, Next week we will make a more detailed announcement of the many g00d things to be found in the several departments HENRY HUGHES & CO.
