scandals and graft are said to have been made by outsiders. One of the many specific matters -| that will be considered is the White Earth timber sale. Some officials, it is said, will be investigated as to their connection with it. Charges have been made that Supt. Joseph Farr has gone further than the duties of his position warrant iu his connec- tion with logging operations. ' Just what Farr had to do with the much talked of sale is not clear, al- though it was remarked lately by a man who has been close to Farr that the superintendent was opposed to the present White Earth system and predicted that the department would EVERYTHING FOR HORSES at LitchKe’s Harness Store Many years of experience with the trade of pItasca county has taught me to know the wants of those who qse Harness and all kinds of Horse Fur- nishings.

The amusements und refreshments were put in charge of a committee of four ladies, who kept their plans entirely to themselves. The remainder of the club constituted themselves a com- mittee on decorations and attended to their duties most faithfully, as was evidenced by numerous jack 0’ lanterns, draped sheets bedecked with witches, black cats, bats, etc. At the request of the committee each lady and her husband came in mask cos tumes of characters in Mother Goose. ‘They were met at the door by witches and were entertained by them with a guessing contest on who each person represented; and then around the cauldron of the witches’ camp, where fortunes were brewed for each one; and lastly by a picture making cone test. ‘he interest of the evening was next centered on the dining room, where a most beautiful sight met the guests as the doors were thrown open. The lights had been turned off and served backward. Each course called forth wondering comment, as can be imagined when you know the menu as found on the cards was as follows: Spirits. Mice Patties. Develed Chicken. Horseshoe Rolls. Hobgoblin Salad. Cheese Pasties. Fairy Cream. Fortune Cake. Witches Brew. As the guests left the table and for home many were the. gratified re- marks heard on the success of {every thing connected with the evening’s entertainment.

MCARTHY TALKS ABOUT BOVEY “Bovey, the new mining town a few miles out from Grand Rapids, will be a village of 1,500 inhabitants by next spring,” said State Senator ©. C. Mc- Carthy, of Grand Rapids, toa Duluth Herald reporter. ‘Mining operations are in full swing there now, and the mines being opened up will mean a lot of work, “The payroll of the men at Bovey and of those hauling out supplies now amounts to $500 a day. One hundred tons of freight is being hauled from Grand Rapids to the town every day. This means an immense amount of work, as you can readily see, for teams have to be used in transport ing the stuff. This includes the coal for diamond drills and the engines. Eighty per cent of the freight un- loaded at Grand Rapids goes to Bovey. “The new town would soon becume a dangerous rival to Grand Rapids were it not for the fact that discov- eries of iron ore are being made in the vicinity of the latter place. There are now from 25 to 30 diamond drills working in the district, and explora- tions are meeting with great success. ‘The mines will be a fine thing for the town, and there will bea good deal more business there in future. All the land around there, practically, is optioned, and some of the options are pretty biy ones.” Senator McCarthy was on his way home from St. Paul, where he had! been to present arguments for a new trial in the Gardner case before the supreme court.

Don’t expect to get it all for $10.00, either. You can’t buy a hand- made suit for $10.00. . We can give you good values for $10.00, but for the real swell effects you must pay from $15.00 to $20,00. At that you cut the tailor’s bill in two. Are you interested in this question of style and quality? If you are we can hold your attention and win your admi- ration and custom with tnese splendid K. N. & F. suits. What you save on the suit you can put into an overcoat. If you dou’t need the overcoat, put it in your pocket. You save it either way you figure it out. Don’t pay too much. Don’t pay too little. Pay the right price. Buy the right make and we’ll all feel well satisfied.

Espe- cially warm was his reception at Richmond, the capital of the old con- federacy. He spoke from the steps of the capitol building, under the shadow of the Jefferson Davis statue. and the people went wild with en- thusiasm and excitement. Later he was entertained ata litt'e banquct, a purely social affair and distinctiv Virginian. “In every speech the president made he prefaced his remarks by tell- ing the southerners to hold to their noble traditions. “No people, he said. have nobler ones. Kgeping the fine, old traditions would in no manner in- terfere with loyalty to the Hag of their country, he said.
