She reports a most delightful time, good fishing and some bird shooting. The whole party moved up the lake and enjoyed camp life in tents, and Miss Katherine was loath to return to her dull duties as clerk for her tather in the probate office. Mrs. W. P. Nisbett was a passenger to Duluth last Thursday afternoon. She intended to take her husband on the trip, but he ran away to shoot ducks and did not get home until the next day.

From the great amount of preparatory work the ladies are doing the carnival will be an elaborate affair. Supt. H. C, Dudley of the iron properties of the Oliver Iron Mining company at Calumet, was in town Thursday. Supt. Dudley © was in- terested in seeing that certain iron lands were not included in the pro- posed new village. He said there was no objection to the organization of a village provided it did not include lands that had been drilled and found to contain large bodies of ore. Fritz Danilson, 34 years of age, a Swede, who has a hometead and smail saw mill in the town of Ardenhurst, was committed to the insane asylum at Fergus Falls in Judge of Probate Huson’s court on Monday. Danilson imagined that he was being pursued for wrecking a train in North Dakota, and also for the murder of a school teacher. H. R. King, John Beckfelt, E. A. Kremer, Walt Fuller, F. A. McVicar and George F. Kremer composed a party of duck hunters that went up to Winmbigoshish dam last Saturday. Messrs. King and Fuller returned yesterday afternoon and report ducks very scarce in that vicinity. The other gentlemen will remain until sometime next week, County Auditor M. A. Spang and Capt. Tim Mahon, spent a few days up river in Mr. Spang’s launch in quest of ducks of which they bagged quite a goodly number—so it’s reported—but we have no positive evidence as none of the birds were displayed in this presence. In any event they had a good time and are feel- ing better for having taken the outing. James A. Quigg of Deer River, was a visitorin Grand Rapids Monday. While out cruising some time ago Mr. Quigg ran onto a rare specimen of porcupine, and captured it. The ani- mal was snow white—a genuine Albino “porky”, it might be called. He skinned it out and brought the hide to Weitzel’s taxidermy shop and. had it mounted. It is indeed a curiosity, and there are none im this vicinity who have ever seen anything like it before. Mr. and Mrs. W, E.White of Long- ton, Kansas, who have spent the summer at their beautiful cottage home on the north shore of Deer lake, received word by wire last week that Mrs. White’s mother was very low, and not expected to live. The tele- gram was a week old when delivered, but Mrs. White left at once for Long- Review is done right. ton. Mr. White temained to arrange the household furniture, etc., for the winter. He will leave the iast of this week for Kansas. It was the inten- tion of Mr. and Mrs. White to remain at the lake as long as the weather would permit, but the sad news re- ceived disarranged their plans. They will return in the early summer to re- main throughout the season next year. Thomas Murphy,of the Swan River Logging company, will devote his time unt 1t freezes up to hauling logs from the vicinity of Cass Lake to the landing just below Grand Rapids, where the logs are dumped into the Mississippi. The Swan River com- pany has a contract with the Standard Lumber company to haul their logs by rail from Cass Lake to Grand Rapids. Ed. N. Howe, formerly the popular drug clerk at the Itasca store, now holding a similar position in North Dakota, was a Thursday arrival in Grand Rapids. He will assist at the big store a week or two during the absence of Manager Dickinson at Chicago. Mr. Howe has many friends in Grand Rapids who were pleased to greet him upon his return. He says North Dakota 1s all right from a bus- iness view point but will not compare with this section and especially Grand Rapids. Victor L. Power of Hibbing, one of the brilliant young attorneys of north- ern Minnesota, was here Thursday and appeared before the board of county commissioners in the interests of the parties who own the Calumet townsite. Mr. Power is_ personally interested in the property and very naturally desires to see a village organ- ized. While the commissioners failed to act at this time Mr. Power says a village will soon be essablished and it will be one of the most flourishing | on the Western Missabe. Charles Kauppi of West Duluth, one of the commissioners of St. Louis county and a prominent merchant, and Oscar Kuitu, a merchant of Cloquet. and Victor L. Gran, an at- torney of Duluth. were arrivals in Grand Rapids last Saturday. The party drove out to the home of Her- man Gran, father of Victor, in Trout lake township. They were supplied with shot guns and expected to bag some ducks before returning to their respective homes. F.W. Magnuson of Bergville, in- dependent candidate for county com- missioner in district No. 1 wasin town during the week. He says the vote up in the section where he lives will go strong for him, and he looks hope- fully ahead to the 3rd of November when he expects to be elected. Mr. Magnuson’s reason for feeling that he will be the choice of the voters in his district 1s wholly based on the fact that there are two candidates from Deer River who will split up the big vote of that village and vicinity. Mr. Magnuson isa Democrat in politics. County Commissioner Morris O’Bnen of Cohassst returned last week from Foley, N. D., where he had spent two weeks with his aged mother, who, for afew days was not expected to live. After Mr. O’Brien’s arrival, however, she steadily improved and when he lett she appeared to be entirely out ot immediate danger. Mrs. O’Brien is 68 years of age, and is the mother of eleven children, all living, and on Sunday, two weeks ago, the six sons and five daughters sat down to dinner together in their mothers’s home. That was indeed a sight to revive the waning vitahty and raise the hopes and thrill the heart of any dear old mother. Tne Rapids Boys Won. The Grand Rapids football team went to Remidji last Sunday and added anotner victory to their long list by a score of 5 too. It was a hard-fought game, every inch of which was battled for and honorably won. Goodland News Notes One of the Matthiesen little girls is dangerously ill with cholera infanum.

Bither of Bovey, was in town theother day, having been up to Deer River and other points in the interests of his candidacy for the office of county attorney. Mr. Bither says he considers his changes for election very favorable, but he is not sure of the outcome on November 3rd. Thus far he has had a big ad- vantage over his opponent, Frank F. Price, in the matter of making a_per- sonal canvas. Mr. Price has been attending to the interest of his chents in district court every day for some time past and has been unable to get out among the voters. On the other hand Mr. Bither has no law practice to look ofter and is thus enabled to give the campaign his entire attention. Lucky Mr. Bither, Good Printing—Herald-Review. _ ‘MISSING FINN FOUND HANGING While walking along the shore of Trout lake near Coleraine afew days ago Wm. Wilson and Fred Habercourt found the decomposed body of a man hanging toatree. Papers upon the person, notably a letter in Finninsh in which he gave family troubles as the reason for his self arranged exit from life, showed that the man was a Fino by the name of Elj and had a family consisting of a wife and several children living in Bovey, and he had hanged himself. He had been missing six weeks. Send in your subscription now for |the Herald-Review.
