Father Beuchler of St. Jo- seph’s Catholic church, returned yes- terday from St. Paul, where he had | been to consult an eye specialist. For some time past he had been | troubled with his eyes, but the spe- cialist found the cause to be a cold that settled in the affected organs, and was not of a serious nature. While in the city the reverend gentle man visited ‘the great land show of the northwestern states, now in progress. He expressed disappoint- ment at not finding Itasca county rep, resented. “The show is great,” said Father Beuchler, “but it would have been still greater if Itasca county had put up such an exhibit as she might have done.
