There were a number of wit- nesses who prmoptly proved Mr. Jones innocent. A jury case was tried before Justice Huson last Thursday. It appears that A.

He was accom- panied by Mr. F. L. Harris of New- berry, Mich. an old friend of the afflicted conductor. Many friends in this section will be pleased to hear of Mr. Shore’s rapid recovery and to again see him on the caboose.

Day,a brother Elk, who has been confined at St. Benedict’s hospi- tal with an attack of pnenmonia. The two men were made members of the Manistique, Mich., lodge of Elks, No. 632, on the same night.

Charles Wood, an old-time logger in this section, and a veteran of the civil war, will leave Monday next for Minneapolis where he will enter the soldier’s home for the winter. Mr. Wood, like all who battled in the dark days from ‘61 to ‘65, has long since passed over the menidian of life and can no longer withstand the hard knocks to which work among the pines subjects a man in this rigorous climate. Naturally of a rugged con-} stitution and a man of industrious habits ali his hfe, he was loath to sur- render, buta year ago a friend in- duced him to visit the Home. He found there a hospitality and _condi- apparent and Mr. Finnegan went to/| Duluth to consult Dr. Bagley.

As a re- sult he spent last winter at the good Home and speaks of it in the highest terms ot praise.

The last published statement of the condition of the First State bank of Bovey shows that institution to be in a very prosperous position among the banking houses of this section, and itis also an unfailing index of the prosperity that prevails in that} iron metropolis of Itasca county. A! short time ago Mr. L. M. Bolter, of the First.State bank of Grand Rapids, purchased the entire interest of F. P. Shelden in the Bovey bank. Mr. Bolter is highly pleased with the showing made in the rapidly incréas- ing business of the bank at Bovey and has great confidence in the future of that town.
