Acivil case from Deer River was tried before a jury in Justice Bailey’s court yesterday, The htigants were Mrs. Julia Gallant vs. Mrs. Sarah E. Romans, ‘he latter is the renter of the New Home hotel, which is owned by the former. A lease for a period of one year with the privilege of two years, was given by Mrs. Gallant to Mrs. Romans. The owner of the properity desired to break the lease, but the jury found in favor of Mrs. Romans. Some time ago a Great Northern detective caused the arrest of several school children of Deer River on a charge of maliciously breaking win- dows in the depot at that place. The parents of the children offered to_set- tle the alleged damage: but the detec- tive wanted to.make himself famous and insisted on getting his case into court. The young sons df Percy Brooks, Wm. Hurlburt and M. Mc- Guire were selected as the victims to do penaarce, and the case was brought on trial before Justice Bailey of Grand Rapids. Frank F. Price was retained to defend the boys and Geo. Spear was supposed to prosecute, but he was not present after two adjourn- ments and the cases was thrown out of court, on refusal of the detective to furnish bonds for the costs. It was found upon investigation that two of the boys, Brooks and Hurlburt, were not in‘Deer Rwer when the alleged damage was done. THE TELEPHONE’S TERRIBLE TALK During the past week everybody was hearing about everybody else’s business, whether they wanted tu or not. The telephone. trolleys were badly mixed as a result of the wet storm that weighted the wires until many of them broke and al! seemed to be crossed. Dr. Costello got-in* di- rect communication with the Herald- Review whenever he was called up and as a result we have reason to bee lieve that be is the busiest man in Grand Rapids... Manager Dalcour and his crew finally got the strings un- tangled and matters are again as- suming safe and sane conditions.

A Delicious Beverage. Since becoming distributing agent for the Fitger Brewing company of Duluth, W. C. Tyndall has been most agreeably surprised with the rapid in- crease in the demand for this delicious beverage. When he took the agency there were very few dealers here abo handled Fitger’s,as there had previous- ly been no regular agency established in Grand Rapids. It did not take long, however, to create a demand for it among most of the dealers and today it is easily the most popular beer in Grand Rapids. The bottled brew of the Fitger company is not excellet by any brewery in the world. It is the most popular case beer now on the Grand Rapids’ market for family juse. It’s absolute purity guar- anteed by the makers. Order a case sent to your home. The Trout Lake Road. Editor Herald-Review: Through the columns of your paper I desire to tell my side of the trouble that has been caused among the residents of Trout Lake town- ship about the road that runs through may farm. In the first place L wish to state that Ido not blame my neigh bors so much for the trouble that has been caused as Ido County Attorney Spear. When the matter was taken into court and decided in my- favor and an order of the court ed pro- hibiting anyone from driving across my farm or to in any manner inter- fere with my fences or gates, it was Mr. Spear who told several citizens of Trout Lake township that they did not have to obey the order issued by. Judge McClenahan and that {they could tear down my fences and drive over my land and that if I interfered with them doing so, to provoke me until I should assault them, and then come to him and make complaint and he would have me arrested and put in jail. aging been told to do this by the coun’ ¥ attorney my neighbors thought they had a. right to} 20, 80, | and it was this criminal advise that @& caused all the trouble in the past. Now an effort is being made to get the county commissioners to expend money on this ‘road, hoping thereby to make.it.a legal higbway. I do not want the road to run through my farm, and there isno reason why it should, I have tried to be reasonable and just. I gave leaSe of my land for road purposes in order to give the township and county time to build a road on the quarter line. This lease will expire on the 29th day of next July. After that Gate I propose to to stop all travel over my farm, and 1 hereby serve notice to that effect on all parties interested. The county board should establish a road where they have aright to put it and not , have any more trouble. L. A. WILLMANN. Trout Lake Nov. 30, 1906. People who write things which they would like to see printed in a news- paper, should bear in mind that what they write as their persoral opinon should be fathered by them, and when they write stuff that is not fit for them to attach their names to it should never be printed. Remember, the rule of all decent newspapers and you ‘will never ‘have occasion to put on the | | ‘shoe. is is the rule-which we give urall kindness. Never ask a news- paper to do anything you are ashamed to do yoursel. A small Kansas boy was once call. edinto view his new born baby brother. He looked it over with dissatisfaction, and finally asked: “Mama, where did this thing come from?” “An angel brough it, Jimmie” “Wuz you awake when he came?” “Certainly.” “Well, then, mam- ma, all that I have got to say, is that you are Geadeasy.

TO DETECT LEAK IN GAS pire. tek Sales a Lather. of Soap Much Better Than Using a Match. ‘ The.folly of hunting for‘a leak in ‘a “gas pipe with a lighted match is not {30 much because of the danger of aa explosion as of other damege, as ia shown by the experience of a West Philadelphia householder last week. One or two small leaks were detected by going over ail the pipes and hold- ing a lighted match to them. The smell of gas ceased, but was replaced a few hours later by the smell of burning wood. Another visit to the cellar showed a charred floor joist«a little distance above a gas pipe. Theve was no apparent cause for this until R& very close examination discovered that a tiny jet of gas was issuing from the pipe beneath the beam. It was lighted, but was so small as to be blue in color and nearly invisible. It had been lighted by the match used in the first investigation, but had not been noticed. “If that leak had happened to be In a lead joint instead of an iron con- nection,” said a gas man, “there would probably have been work for the fire department. The smallest bossible jet of lighted gas issuing through lead will in time heat and melt the lead and make the leak larg- er, until a big flame is issuing. This may make a fire hours later, in the dead of night, or at a time when no one is in thelhouse. The only prop- er way to look for these very small leaks is to paint the suspected pipe with a smooth soap lather. Just as in the case of a bicycle tire, the tini- est leak will blow a bubble in the lather, and there you are.”—Philadel- phia Record. LAST BOURBON AT VERSAILLES. Orange Tree Has Survived Rule of French Dynasty. There is at Versailles an orange tree close upon 500 years old.. This tree, which was taken from Fontaine- bleau to Versailles on the completion of the Orangery, was already fa- mous under the title of the Grand Bourbon. According to tradition, the tree had been planted in 1421 by a Princess of Navarre, and, after sev- eral changes of owners, came into the possession of~Francois I., by whom it was placed at Fontainebleau. When it reached Versailles the King came to visit it, and two Grand Bour- bons were then face to face. The man passed, and even his bones, torn from their tomb at St. Denis and tossed in- ‘o a trench, have perished; not. a pinch of his dust remains.
