Published Every Gru Ret Beacloce| MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS First’ Meeting of 1902 Council Was Held By E.C. KILEY & SON. Last Monday at Village Hall. TWO DOLLARS “A YEAR IN ADVANCE President D. M. Gunn of the village council, Trustees Rassmussen aud Decker and Recorder King met at the qntered ino the Postoffice at Grand Rapids Minnesotu, as Second-Class Matter Official Paper of Itasca County, Village of Grand Rapids and Deer River aud Town of Grand, Rapids. Important to Settlers The interior department has re- cently made a ruling that is very im- portant to settlers, and if its require- ments are not lived up to many will notonly lose their homesteads but their rights to file again for all time to come. The ruling is that all who have filed on land at any place outside of the district land office or out of the county where the Jand is located since June 1, 1901, are required to re- file at the district land office or be- fore the U. S. commissioner in the county where the land is located. All who do not refile within sixty days from the date of the letter sent by the department to the postoffice address given at the time they filed and on record, will not only lose their right to the land originally filed on, but their homestead right as well. It is understood that applicants will not be required to make a new application, but must make affidavit of citizenship, legality of age and that theland sought is for actual settle- ment and not for speculation; ‘‘non- saline” affidavit; that they have seen the land and acquainted with every legal subdivision thereof. The fact that any person who filed coutrary to the above requirements does not receive notice to retile will not be excused, for the notices have all been sent to the postotiice address given at the time the filing .was made. and His Libraries Book lover Andrew Carnegie had a “library day”. He signed checks for amounts‘running fron. $5,000 tu $175,. 000and planted libraries in thirty- eight towns and cities. 1t is natural jor alarge number of people to feel that they could spend his dollars more wisely than he does. They say there are books everywhere, millions of them. Nothing is cheaper than good literature, and there is a feeling that the very rich should use a part of their surplus wealth in putting an end to actual suffering; to help those whostarve and slave, victims of man’s inhumanity to his kind. Yes, a man starved to death in New York last week. He feil dead on the street, and hislast words were, “Oh, I am_so hungry!” A fewof the Carne- gie dollars—the price ofa book— would have saved a life, but remem- ber this: Since the beg inningof wealth practical charity bas been a problem. How to reach those who are really in need without benefiting thoes who will not help themselves has puzzled sociologists for years. Isn*t it possi- bie that the libraries are to helpin a way that the critics do not dream of now? When knowledge is general it isn’t hard to believe that there will be less'suffering and little poverty iu this world.—St. Paul News. Carnegie Card of Thanks, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Nolan desire to express ther heartfelt thanks for the generous and kindly aid and sym- pathy shown by their neighbors in ‘uheir late bereavement at the death of their daughter, Exelda Perreault, ‘The many kindnesses shown will ever be remembered with sincere ‘feelings of gratitude.

Ibis highly probably that Krit- zinger would have been convicted and shot like Scheepers, had not the British been shamed by the generous act of Delary.

Peeple waik leisurely about as if they had all day to reach their destination, or, rather, as if they had no destination in view. The contrast between the ‘clear the way there’ rush of New York, Chicago, St. Louis, and the other great business centers is most startling. Hypocritical Americans with a tendency toward anglo-mania complain that we have no leisure class in this country, but I believe the citi- zens of Washington come well under that head. If leisure begets; culture, as is claimed, Washington would be a cultured city.

By ® New Pieu of Bank swindling By Duplicate Draft. Boston Special Chicago Tribune: A mew scheme to defraud the banking houses of this community has been die covered through the officials of the Massachusetts National bank. The of- ficiats are assisting the police in this country and those of the Scotland Yard force in unraveling the matter. The manner in which it is worked is as fol- lows: A man enters a bank and pur- chases a draft, at the same time tell- ing the cashier that he is going abroad and would like to have a duplicate drawn, He takes beth of the drafts away, and the original is cither taken or sent to Europe by the swindier, Some benk in London eashes the crigi- nal draft, and the duplicate is cashed on the continent by some unsuspectin 3 person. In this way the swindlers double their money. Paper issued by the Massachusetts National bank w73 Ueed by one cf the swindlers to secure $2,000 from a bank in Sw'tzerland. Tho man who had the transaction with tha local bank told the cashier that he was going abroad and that he wou!d like to have the drafts in two parts. He pur- chased two drafts cf $1,600 ea These were drawn on a London ‘bau. Re- eently word was received from London that one of the drafty marked duph- cate had been cashed there. A few days ago a letter was rec from a banking house in switzerland, stating that it hsd cashed the oviqizal draft for the party to whem Miller had in- dorsed it. The cashier of the Massachu- setts National bank wrote to a baak- ing house in Troy, N. ¥., and asked that institution to look up a man giv- ing the name of J. P. Miller, who had bought the draft in March. The bank- ing house replied thai it found three peopte of that rame, all reputable bus- iness men. No one of the three an- swered tl-> description of the Mill who bought the drafis. The Switzer- land bank will be the loscr in ths ecse, as the person who cashed the dvaft should have demanded the dup! tate as well as the original be ing it. An Interesting Discovery. An interesting discovery has reward- ed the researches of officials at Hamp- ton Court palace, London. There haa always lurked a sw-picion that the walls of the fzmous Queen Anne’3 drawing room, which is in the center vf the east wing of Wren’s famous building, contained mere than the sec ond rate portraits of the Ccorges. Never however, was it si d than an im- portent work by thet once famous dec- orative artist, Verrio, had sealed from the pudiic ere since 1785. owing to a stupendous act of vandar- ism, which, it ts prez d we cary ried out dy Queon Caroline in 1735, probably to prevent the spothesis of Queen Anne from mesting ter eyes Ip her drawing room ‘when she became queen. The date is known by the ez- traordinary act ci the paper h-rger of that timne, who, in co ing up Verrio's work, scretcked on his name and the date of the peper hanging. In taking down some of the portraits cf the Georges, which were intended for Ken- sington palace, it w: voticed by an official that the t bend corner closed to the ceilizs seemed 2bruptly eut off from the gensra’ scheme of the ceautiful ceiling, which ever yeen and admired, and which vented Queen Anre in the cb Justice, dressed in nurple lined with ermine. Over rer head is a crown. aeld by Neptune and Britannia, white surrounding ana ficating in the clouds are various aile: cal figures repre senting Peace anc Pienty, etc. The: d'scovery now m shows that the whele of the walls were originally sainted by Verrio in the same manner, Queen Anne’s en of the Sea in the quarters of the globe, treeeed ngs un An extraordinary story is :eported om Komern, in Hunga The ofi- capital attracts men of wealth whe have retired from business and are only seeking a desirable city in which to make their homes.

If I had nevei visited Washington in the ,winter and seen that the same conditions then exist, I might be led to suppose it was the extreme heat that made your citizens so loath to moving with haste, but my observation is that the habits of the people are about the same the year round, and that deiiberateness is one of the distinctive features of the capital. .Ward McAllister is quoted as having said that haste is vulgar. vond to be signed by the president of said village and countersigued by the recorder of said village and sealed with the cor-! porate seal of said village. and the inter- | est coupons hereto attached to be signed {f he was right, Washingten is de- eidedly not a vnlgar city.’”—Washing; ‘als of the municipali < Moesa, in he Komorn Comitst, are accused of ng applied torture to persons iga- risoaed on suspicion cf theft.
