The ladies of the Episcopal Guild had advertised a supper to be given at the Village hall the 31st. Inst., but have decided to postpone it until a Tater date. The ladies Monday Whist club, that have their meeting each Tuesday afternoon, were entertained by Mrs. xraffam this week and Mrs. Gunn will do the honors next week, Chas. McCord, an old-time resi- dent, has been spending the past week with his brother-in-law, W. C Gilbert. Cha:ley hails from Mexico and the world seems to be using him well.

Madsen & Anderson have purchased the tailoring business of Chas. Ham- mer and will continue in the same rooms. Mr. Madsen has been cutter for A. Johnson for the past year and is well known to our best dress rs to be well up in the trade. Stephen Jarabek, who has waited on the public in the postoffice so long and faithtully, has resigned his position to take effect February 1st. He will be succeeded by Otto Radke. ‘ Doc” is well known and will no doubt make a worthy successor to “Steve.” A. J. McGuire returned trom the state meeting of the Dairymens As- sociation at Owatonna yesterday He says that they had the best meeting in the history of the association and that he was able to get in some telling hits for northern Minnesota. The Tyndall for case of the state vs. Albert the having of deer hides in his possession came on for hearing ‘Tuesday of this week at Bovey and proved to be shorter and sweeter than the majority of that class of trials in this part of the country. Attorney Price, for the defendant, proved to the ‘“‘court” that he was not qualified to do business at any stage of the game and the case went bump and the deputy game warden hiked for home. An unusual condition, as regards fuel, preyatls here this winter. Either on account of the depth of snow in the woods or that more money can be made in logging and cutting cedar. ‘There 1s no wood being brought to town and it seems to be an 1mpossibil- ity for our sealers to get any soft coal and the result 1s a great scrambling after fuel. However we can congrate ulate ourselves that conditions are far from being what they are in the praine country, Millions for State “U.” State Auditor Samuel G. Iverson says that within the next generation Minnesota will have the best en- The Bluebells gave one of ther { dowed state university ia the country. According to his estimates, from fifteen to twenty millions of dollars will come to the university as a permanent endowment fund from royalties on the state ore Ceposits. He says this estimate is conservative and that it is more than likely to ex- ceed than to come below his figures, If the rate of the royalties is in creased, the permanent endowment fund will reach even larger pros portions, Only five forty-acre tracts have been explored so far and ore deposits have been found which will bring to the state school fund, part of which 1s for the university, over twenty millions of dollars. The other 495 of the 500 tracts need not prove to be a twentieth as valuable as the first five to bring the university’s share up to what Mr. Iverson predicts. This permanent endowment, it is estimated, will bring in an annual income of about $750,000. In ad- dition to this there will be the regular income from fees and other sources (exclusive of state appropri- ations) which{will make a total of an even million a year.—Minneapolis Journai. : Colonial Saxophone Quartette. aitkhe:-Midlana Lyceum bureau has the folluwing to say in regard to the Colonial Saxophone quartette which will be at the Village hall Tuesday evening, January 29th, under the auspices of the Grand Rapids Lyceum bureau. We offer, the Colonial Saxophone quartette as the greatest example of variety, to be offered in one company of four, to be found on the platform. They were brought from all quarters, but we found people who could come up to the requirements, and we take pleasure in launching this well trained company. The boys are not new to the, platform. Indeed, all have done more or less of road work. The combination, while new, is not amateurish and we know you will be delighted. In this company are four singers, four saxophones and three salo cornetists. ‘lhe combination is irresistible. Try them.

Miquez and Mouchet have de- vised a new filter for impure or sus- pected waters from lakes, rivers and springs. The water is directed over a layer of fine sand, a meter thick, with gravel underneath. The solid particles and bacteria in the water are filtered out by the upper layers of the fine sand, and the water escapes freely from the gravel underneath. The authors consider it well suited for the supply of pure alimentary water. ~—London Globe. More Stoical Than Red Indians. No rea Indians were ever more cal- lous to pain that the aborigines of Australia. In their tribal fights, which still occur frequently, the severest wounds are treated with indifference. Old Australian settlers are fond of telling a famous story of a tribal chief who walked sixty miles with a spear sticking clear through his body before he could gat help to pull it out. They insist tna’ the stozy is true. STILL WSTGH FOR MONTEZUMA, | Notice off Application for Liquor License, Priests Tend Sacred Fire and Await Return of King. Taos stands unique and distinct from all the other pueblos, and is unusually interesting to the student of ethnology. It is there that the eter. nal fire is said to be kept burning in the cestufa, or underground temple, and “here the priests climb daily to the Lousetops and gaze toward the ris- ing sun, hoping to see the returning Montezuma sailing toward them on his eagle. The fire, it is said, was removed to this village from Pecos in the early part of the last century, when the latter was abandoned. Ac- cording to rumor it is kept in a sa- cred temple built in the bowels of the earth and coanected with the sur- face by hidden es and laby- tinths. The pri id ‘the sacred fire carefully, and, adition is to be believed, it has not been extinguished since Montezuma left the earth for his heavenly home. Taos was also the home of Kit Carson, the famous scout who led Gen. Fremont through the wilds and whose name has been sung in many tongues. He lived and died in ihe little village, loved and respect ed by all the Workman. TRUE STATEMENT OF COUNSEL. All in Courtroom Witnesses of the Judge’s Reversal. “tI once attended some legal pro- ceedings in Nevada,” says a Philadel- phia lawyer, “which were unconven- tionai, to say the least. fhe judge presiding made up what he lacked in legal lore by a certain entertainingly joviality. The case before Aim was windy and long drawn out, and it was olainly ts be seen that he was tired and uninterested. To one of his de- cisions counsel for the defendant promptly took exception and his hon- or nodded carelessly and settled down in his ample chair. For a moment or two he guietly dropped off to sleep, nis chair tilted back against the wall. Suddenly he fell over backward, and, scrambling to his dignity and his seat, he sought to cloak his mishap by ex- claiming abruptly and irrelevantly: “No, counselor, I must adhere to my decision of a moment ago.’ “Counsel for the defense arose, and, with a s21ious bow, said: ‘Ah, but your honor has just reversed himself most conclusively.’’”’—Harper’s Week- ly. Nirvana of Buddhism. The Buddhist forbears to slaugh- ter animals, be it for food, sport or scientific purposes; he discredits the theory that they have been created for the use of man, and that he has any right over them. The Buddha sat and taught that every human be- ing, high or low, animal or human, while transmigrating in any of the ma- terial, semi-material or nonmaterial worlds, is subject to alternate misery and illusive happiness, and that last- ing bliss is found only in Nirvana. He saw that the will to live to enjoy was the cause of transmigration with its miseries, and that when through enlightenment this will ceases. Nir- vana is attained and transmigration or incarnation in earthly bodies ceases. Picturesque California Woimen. The women grape-pickers of Cali- fornia are picturesque. There is just a dash of Indian to give color to the cheek a touch of Spanish, and just a suspicion of the old blood that built the wonderful cities ages ago in lower Mexico, making a combination attrac- tive to the lover of the picturesque. Dark hair, flashing black eyes, intelli- gent faces, perfect courtesy, intelli- gence that but needs suggestion to lead to higher grades, indeed, one could not look at those pickers, these cholos, as the tenderfoot called them, picking grapes, to see that it required but clothes and environment to make a remarkable change.

While emery is used for polishing tools, pol ishing paper for stone and glass, Ox- ide of iron for fine glassware and lime for metals, pumice stone is employed for polishing softer articles.

A teacher in a public school of Bos- ton once had great difficulty in im- parting to a boy pupil of 10 certain elementary principles of grammar. In class one day the instructor experi- enced more than the usual amount of trouble with the lad. In desperation the teaeher finally blurted out the question: “At least, you can tell me why we study grammar.” “Yes, ma’am,” returned the pupil; “we study grammar so that we can laugh at the mistakes of others.”— Warper's Weekly. Pays to Watch Small Things. No matter what the general magni- tude of a business may be, it is well worth the while to look out for its minor affairs. This may be an age of large things in general, but it is, after all, from the handling of smaller deals that the greatest profits are de rived. Small leakages are sure toslip by unncticed unless the business is so organized that every detail, no matter of how little apparent significance, can be properly ethecked. : DEFECTIVE PAGE Ff Indians.—Southerr | PRU NO ror ee ONS UNUNO RUM OKOURUN ONO CROM e ce Ore rete _, County of Itasca, Village of Grand Rapids.
