Abouta month OVER AT BOVEY Sheriff Heolihan was notified Wednesday night that a man had been shot and killed in a house of il] repute at Bovey. He immediately responded to the call and found the | information nearly correct. The | sheeting took place in a house ! operated by Wm. Brown and a woman known as Pearl Brown. It appears | that the Brown woman became jealous of the Brown man, with whom she | was living, and ina fit of anger drew i a revolver and shot at the object of her rage. The ball went wide of its | mark and struck a man named Mc- Grain in the face. The ball lodged in the back of his head. It was at first thought that the wound would prove fatal, but the patient was taken {| to a Duluth hospital for treatment, where be is said to be recovering. The Brown woman was arrested and lodged in jail where she is held to await the result oi her target practice, McGrain is said to be a married man with a wife and two children living at Akeley. He was a frequenter of the Brown resort,.and when he felt that the end of life was near he sent for Sheriff, Hoolihan and willed two rings and) a watch, all his earthly possessions, to a woman inmate of the house in which he was woundeo. Brown and several women who were | in the house when the shooting took place are being held in the county jail as witnesses” OFFICERS FOR » NEW COUNTY Notwithstandirg the contest filed against the division of Itasca in pur- suance of the vote cast at the late election, the commissioners oamed for Koochiching county in the or- Iginal petition filed have proceeded to formally organize by naming the fol- lowing officers: Auditor, R.

THE FARMERS HOLD MEETING pues 4 i * In response to a call published in the last issue of the Herald-Review for a meeting of the Itasca County Agricultural association, there was a small gathering of farmers, two busi- hess men and a couple of newspaper reporters at the office of Village Re- corder Graffam Thursday afternoon. Grand Rapids business men are cer- tainly establishing an unenviablo reputation when it comes to attend- ing to matters of public concern. The newspapers may announce a meeting of public interest under big lines on the first page, distribute bills about town on the day of the meets ing, and then, by personal solicita- tion. it is possible to get a half dozen men to turn out. At the meeting ‘Thursday afternoon there should have been a very liberal attendance of Grand Rapids business men, but nae NEW TAILORING 1 FIRM Notice to the Public @e firm of ROECKER BROS., -“Merchant Tailors, has been formed.

A. J. McGuire of the State farm. A. M. Sisler of Laprairie, and J. S. Gole of Grand Rapids were named as the representatives to attend the state meeting from Itasca county. Some other matters of interest to agricultural affairs were discussed by those presen A committee consist- ing of Messrs. McGuire, Buell and Goie was appointed to consider and report on the matter of fair grounds for the county. This subject is one of vital importance if the agricultur- al association sfully maintained. Last summer there was considerable money expended in fit- ting up grotfnds fora ball park west of town. This location does not ap- pear to be satisfactory to everyone in- terested, and the tract of land on the north side now owned by the county will again be considered wita a yiew to the erection of suitable buildings and the making of a race track. The committee named will confer with the county commissioners. A com- mnittee was also appointed, con- sisting of Messrs. Buell, McGuire and Gole, to revise ‘the consti- tution and by-laws of the county | fuir association, and report the sape for consideration at the an- nual meeting to be held on February ; 23. At the annual meeting to be held on that date the officers of the association will be chosen for the en- j suing year. The It a County Farm tion, which was organized pring, | was represented at the meeting on Thursday, and what has been accom- plished by that organization was brietiy discussed. Mr.°A. J. McGujre who is the secretary, reported that he had given attention only tothe mat- ter of ascertaining the number of cows kept in this vicinity that might be available as contributors to a creamery at this place. He said that there are now about 300 within a; radius of eight miles, and that in his opinion a good sized creamery could be maintuined. He had brought up he subject at a meeting of the Grand apids Commercial club, and a num- ver of prominent business men ex- pressed themselves as being willing to take stock in the enterprise to get it started. Mr. McGuire stated that 1t would require about $3,000 to start a small creamery. Resolutions.

There is no question kut that it will save fudl every day it runs instead of using more as it gets older, and if properly installed and of the right size it will last a lifetime.
