5 ' Hy j j | Joe O'Dey left Thursday for Min- neapolis where he will rusticate for a few days. W. A. Everton was down from Deer River “a couple of days this aweek. James Hughes, brother of Henry Hughes, will soon establish himself jn the ‘mercantile business at Nash- wauk. Mr, and Mrs. W. H. Prideaux, of Adnan Minn, are here on a visit to their daughter and family, Mrs. J. S. Gole. W. J. Coffron, the former Deer River hotel proprietor, was registered at the Pokegama Thursday, from De- froit, Michigan. Frank Newton of the firm of New- ton & Woods, returned yesterday from Chisholm. Mr, Newton is interested an iron property in that vicinity. W. B. Holman was an eastbound assenger to Virgiuta and Chisholm tu which places he went to look after some mining properties in which he is snterested. Let’s kick for a street sprinkler. Something must be done, or there'll be no pitch hot, Wouldn’t it be a good idea for the village to keep a team? Henry Cobb, editor of the Park Rapids Enterprise, was here Wednes- day, Mr, Cobb may become a resi- alent of Grand Rapids. He likes the jown, Ray Ferguson of Saginaw, Mich., nephew of County ‘lreasurer Miller, and Mrs, F. A. King, arrived here yesterday, He may conclude to re- main here permanently. Capt. J. H. Hasty was in the vil- lage a couple of days this week, The captain says his farm and garden promises well and are shooting up- wards with amazing rapidity. The Grand Rapids base ball team pas received an invitation to play at Bemidji. on the Fourth. It is likely powever. that the boys will be at home on the nation’s natal day. Hon, D. M. Gunn, Capt. H. D, Powers and Maj, E. A, Kremer start- ed for Big Trovt lake today. They were all equipped with abundant fish- ing tackle. We anxiously await re- turns. The famihar face of Al Powers was seen here yesterday. He is hustling these days to get his 72,000.000 feet of logs into the Mississippi. The drive on Prairie is up against a head wind, and has been so tor several days. There is some talk of removing the band stand from its present location opposite Hotel Pokegama to a vacant fot near Village hall, Many think the change would be a big improvement in many ways. The band boys say that the present stand is not suitable for open air concerts. J. E. Johnston of Cass Lake, our former townsman, was a visitor here this week. He says the people of his town are anxiously looking forward to the opening of the reservation when they hope to realize on the long wait they have had for something to turn HP. There’s no excuse to offer for un- shined shoes in Grand Rapids. Joe Craft has a stand atthe “Northern” Sample rooms of John O’Reilly, where you can get a first-class shine atany old time and it costs but ten cents. Try one of Joe’s shines and you'll not agaia wear soiled shoes, He does the best of work. Register of Deeds A. B. Clair and Auditor Farrell made a trip up to Big ‘Trout lake the first of the week for the express’purpose of angling tor trout. They were out of luck. When it didn’t rain the wind blew a hurricane across the lake that allowed of no trout catching on the big pond. Ina small lake near by, however, they might have landed about sixty black pass if it had not been out of season. Street Commissioner Williams is do- ing good work for the village in street repairing and the like. He 1s not atraid to work himself, and he sees that those employed on the streets do a fair day’s work for a fairday’s wage. Without intending to cast any reflec- tion upon former street commissioners, $e Herald-Review believes Harry illiams is the best man the village council of Grand Rapids’ has ever placed fn that position, A letter came to hand trom J. S. Leary of Fosston too late for publica- on this week. It will appear in full in the next issue. In the meantime the Herald-Review is pleased to an- nounce that Mr, Leary denies all knowledge of that muskie story as published broadcast throughout the northwest, and freely admits that the much adyertised muskellonge was caught in Pokegama Jake and shipped DE week. Go get a ticke for the ball game tomorrow, Duluth Eagles vs. Grand Rapids. Henry Gale recently returned from a trip to Mt. Clemens, Mich., where he received treatment for rhuematism. He is much improved. Dr. Geo. C,. Gilbert returned Sun- day from Aitkin where he was called as a witness in a_ district court case. He was absent about a week, The game between Duluth Eagles and Grand Rapids tomorrow prom- ises to be an interesting event in spor- ing circles. Everybody should buy one or more tickets, J. J: Decker and John Dolph will soon have the two story building at the corner of Second street and Kin- dred avenue completed. It will be occupied by W. L. Perrault asa saloon, At the Presbyterian manse on May twentieth, Clarence E. Barker and Grace E, Mundy were united in mar- rage by Rev. W. J. Palm, pastor. Both parties are residents of this county. William Hulbert, of Deer River, deputy sheriff for Itasca county, spent a couple of days here this week look- ing after ‘collections on personal pro- perty taxes and_ other business per- taining to his office.—Bnidgie News. Miss Myrtle Babbet of Forest City, Iowa, daughter of Fred Babbit, was a Tuesday arrival. Yesterday the young lady, accompanied by her father, started for the Big Fork coun- try where she will take a timber and stone claim. Mr. Lewris of Hill City, whose wife recently died at Hotel Gladstone, had the misfortune to cut his hand quite severely in a saw mill at that place the first of the week. Dr. Gilbert dressed the injured member, but it will besome time before he will be able to work. Hill City seems to be booming along in a very substantial manner, and her material growth appears to be ofthe kind that will remain. A,npew bank 1s soon to be established there. It will be financed, according to re- port, by the Hill City Land, Loan and Lumber company. W. C. McCullough, the popular chef in John G., Frazer & Co’s. lum- ber camp during the past logging season, returned this week from a tmp to Duluth and the Twin Cities where he familiarized himself with the ways of city life, after putting in several months among the tall pines. John Herman, aged about seventy years, died at the home of F.A Poepke in this village on Monday last. The cause of death was attributed to old age. Deceased was a former resident of St. Cloud where he lived for many years. Interment was made in Itasca cemetery on ‘Tnesday after- noon, W. P. Remer, the farmer-real estate man who received so much publicity in the Duluth papers because he hiked sixty miles to Grand Rapids to catch a train to Duluth for United States jury service, arrive home ‘Thursday. Court adjourned on Wednesday and W. P. was glad to return to the Reishus-Remer Land office to talk real estate. Our police officers should do a little detective work and: capture one or tore of the young rascals who amuse themselves by ringing the fire bell when there is no occasion for it. ‘lo ming the fire bell without cause is ap offense punishable by fine and ‘im- prisonment. An example should be made of the first offender caught in he act. Thomas Kelly returned from Mil- waukee last Sunday, where he had been fur several weeks receiving trezt- ment for his eyes. He was under the care of Dr. Snyder, one of the most eminent specialists in the United States. His eyes are not yet fully re- stored, but business matters made it necessary for him to leave the doc- tor’s treatment for the present, As a dealer in deer John Hepfel is certainly a pronounced _ success, Within the past few days four tawns have been added to his flock, making in all a herd of nine, seven of which were born in captivity. It is Mr. Hepfel’s intention to take his pets out to his Pokegama lake farm and be- queath to them a territory of about three acres in which they may enjoy the summer months somewhat alter the fashion of their untamed relatives of the boundless forest. At the M. E. church on Monday morning last at ten o’clock occurred the marriage of Mark M. Patterson of Carlton and Miss Alta Bowden of Grand Rapids, Rev. E. L. Jaquish performed theceremony. The young _ Since taking the agency for Fitger’s beer in Grand Rapids W. OC. Tyndall 1s gratified with the success with which he has met. At the head of the lakes this delicious beverage has long been in the leai of all beers on the market, The people of Grand Rapids who like a good glass of the amber fluid were not entireiy unac- quainted with its merits, and hence Mr. Tyndall bad but little trouble in introducing it ‘to tké people of this community. Fitger’s bottled and keg beverages are certainly among the best on the market today. Mr. Tyndall was the pioneer agent for beer in Grand Rapids and for four years he served the people of Itasca county as sheriff, so it follows that he needs no introduction to the people of this community. When you want a case of beer sent to your home call up Tyndall and order Fitger’s. You will find it just the thing for a re- freshing drink on a warm summer day. Give the Sick a Chance. Inasmuch as Providence has made no provision to eliminate sickness from the human family on Sundays more than than any other days, it follows that the services of doctors, powders, pills and portions areas nec- essary ou the Sabbath as at any other time. lt appears, however, that our druggists do not view the matter in this light, and it is only by chance that mediciue can be procured on the holy day no matter how urgent the case may be. Many and loud are the protests heard on this condition of affairs apothecary. A local physician suggested the other day that the two drug stores should come to a mutual understanding whereby each of them would keep open every other Sunday. In justice to the community Messrs. Dickinson and Bell should give this matter the consideration which it merits. A New Pest House. County Health Officer Dr. Gilbert has caused to be built a neat and com- fortable pest house about half way from the village to Lillie lake. This has been used, for diphtheria cases. Another building will be erected in the same locality for the aacommo- dation of smallpox patients. ‘The doctor has been energetic in his efforts to keep contageous diseases in this county as completely under con- trol as possible and it is gratifying to record that he has met with remark- able success. There is not a county in Northern Minnesota that can show a better recordin this respect than can Ltasca. Gun Club Elect Officers. At the regular annual meeting of the Itasca. County Gun Club held Wednesday evening, the following officers were elected to serve fur one year: H. D. Powers, president; John Beckfelt , vice-president; Wm. Dib- bert, treasurer; E. A. Kremer, sec- retary and A. B. Clair, field captain. The club now has a membership of 98, and from that number can be picked some of the best shots in Northern Minnesota. The first shoot of the season took place yesterday afternoon. The regular weekly shoots will be held each Friday after- noon at 3 o'clock. Greneli-Robinson Marriage. Mr. Wm. F. Grenell of Minneapolis, and Miss Sara J. Robinson of this village. were united in marriage at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Emil Litchke, in Grand Rapids, on Monday, May 18th, at 10 velock a. m. Both the contracting parties are well known in this village. ‘The groom was formerly an employe of the Lumberman’s bank. The bride has been a resident here for several years. Only the immediate members of the family were present at the ceremony,besides the best man, Albert Hashay,and the Misses Mabel, and Gertrude McAlpine, the latter be- ing vride’s maid. A wedding dinner was served at the family home and at 1:15 p. m., the happy couple departed for Minneapolis where they will reside hereafter. The best wishes of many friends go with them. Getting Sewer Grades Civil Engineer E. B. Banks, of Superior, has about completed his work of getting the grades for a sew- erage system on the principal streets of the village running north and south. His plat of the village is very complete and the council acted wise- ly in having the work done in a thor- ough manuer at this time.

Sims Said to Be Interested in Deposit That Promises Much. “The. Duluth News Tribune of Thursday is responsible for the fol- Fowing: _‘‘Rumors of valuable iron discoveries on what is described as the westera Vermilion range reached Duluth yesterday. The tinds are re- ported to have been made in the neighborhood of Grave’s Lake, north of Deer River and farfromany known iron deposit in the recognized iron country. J. P. Sims, the Minneapolis Jumberman, who was manager fora number of years for the Itasca Lum- ber comp? ny, is said to be interested in the explorations. ‘The place where the iron ore is said to have been found is said to not be on the western Vermilion proper, but on an offshoot from it.” Buys Iron Ore Property. W. B. Holman has secured a one- half interest in an icon ore claim lo- cated in 26-58-20, about three miles north-east of Hibbing. This claim is surrounded by properties that have already proven very valuable, aud there can be but little doubt that Mr. Holman’s latest purchase will develupe some fine ore. A diamond drill will be put to work at once. P. H. Martin a Duluth iron man, ‘s as- sociated with Mr. Holman in the deal. He Went Fishing. Fred Pabst of Minneapolis, the pop- ular representative of the wholesale liquor tirm of Rosentield Bros. & Co., Chicago, makes regular trips to Grand Rapids where he has a number of cus- tomers. When he arrived last week he was invited by a party of friends to join them at a trout feast prepared by Doc. Welsh of the Northern Cafe. Fred was so taken with the trout and other delicacies spread before him that he determined to laud a fewof the beauties on his own account. And so it happened that a trip tu Trout lake was made by Mr. Pabst, in company with John Rellis. and the two brought back a string of thirteen that averaged in weight four and three-quarter pounds. It was agreed that Fred should have them to take home, but about twelve o’clock that night the unlucky thirteen myster- iously disappeared. Being a piscator- ialist of the genuine brand our friend Pabst was nothing daunted and early next. morning he was again headed toward Trout lake. He was awarded for his labors with another catch of nine, and they were the envy ofall who saw them. Fred determined that no sneak thiet should Jay bands on this bunch of beauties, and he bad them securely packed, ready for ship- ment. Fora moment he left the box inarear room while he joined some friends at the refreshment counter. Imagine his chagrin and anger when John Beckielt. i he returned to find the box of fish had | disapppeared. Again he tore to the lake, but with poor luck, and after spending tive days, during which time he pulled in forty-seven trout, he was forced to leave town as troutless as he arrived. Fred was mad; he was mad all over, and if he were bigger be would have been madder. Between his teeth he uttered the following warning to those about him as he stood on the depot platform awaiting his train: Time atlast makes all things even, And if we do but wait the hour, There never yet waS human power That could evade, if unforgiven, ‘The constant search and vigil long _ Of he who treasures up a wrong. ROAD FROM THE TWIN CITIES The Minneapolis, Superior, St. Paul & Win- nipeg Will Pass Throngh Grand Rapids. If newspaper reports may be de- pended upon that long looked fer north andsouth road, extending from St. Paul and Minneapolis to the Can- adian border, will be an accomplished fact within two years. The new line will run from Minnea- polis, almust as the crow flies, to the head of the lakes and to Beaudette, a station on the Canadian Northern. The main line will be about 320 miles to Beaudette, the Superior division from Anoka will be 120 milesand sun- dry branch lines 60 miles, making the total mileage of the road 500. The capital stock authorized is $12,500,000 and the 5 per cent gold mortgage honds $12,500,000. The company will have independent docks at the head of the lakes and an independent line of lake freighters. Traffic arrangements to be made with the Canadian Northern will give the company outlet to the great northwest and ample provisions have been made for connections with east and south bound trunk lines at Min- neapolis. The. profile of the line shows low grades with overhead or under cros- sings of other railroads at Mora, Aikin and Grand Rapids. The lake terminals wi}! be approached without grade crossings, which insures rapi- dity of transportation. Theroad will tap a country in Northern Minnesota alwost without railway facilities, which is rich in timber, | productive svil and grazing lands. House Moving. Chas. S. Brock has a complete equipment for the moving of frame structures of any size. His outfit is calculated to baul any frame build- ing in Grand Rapids and he guaran- tees satisfaction in every case.
