WORK ON ORE LANDS INTEREST LOCAL FOLK Cohasset is taking keen interest i the preliminary work on the devel- opment of iron properties between the Mississippi river and Pokegama lake. The land is situated about midway between this village and Grand Rapids, and it is realized that the working of mines there | better class. will add greatly to the prosperity of both. There are many iron prospects in close proximity to Cohasset and it is believed that work once start- ed, these are bound to altract capi- tal. | The country hereabout, particular | ly across the river, has been pros- | pected in a general way and en- |) couraging indications of mineral de! posits found at half a score’ of places. A FARMERS’ PHONE COMPANY PROBABLE Settlers along the Mis ippi riv- er west of the village are planning the organization of a co-operative telephone company to serve the district, which is thickly populated, and without wire communication with the outside world or between the farm houses. A meeting will be called within a week or ten days to. discuss the project and it is believed that stock sfficient to build the line can be sold without serious effort. It is proposed to give telephone service to a district twenty miles long by about two miles across. It contains a population of several hundred.

They are going into dairying and general farming, and have purehas- ed tracts running from 40 to 160 acres. A great many families from the vicinity of Mason City, lowa, located here last year, and are sol! well pleased with the country that ‘they have induced some of their neighbors to follow their example. The district is one of the best in this section, and the homes of set- tuers are going up in every direc- tion. Woodjacks a Nice Set. Woodsmen just returned from their winter in the forests of the north are leaving considerable money with the Grand Rapids mer- chants. There are several scores of them in the viltage. For the most part they are an orderly lot of men, and have not been much in| evidence in an alcoholic way. The woodsmen who stop in the north- ern villages with the intention of getting to work just as soon as spring opens up, either on the rail- roads or on the drive, are of the They are spending their money for clothing and saving it for liv- ing expenses, or sending it home to persons dependent upon them. Only two arrests have so far been made among them . Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst. was not able to talk at a meeting in London the other night. But her good right arm is still able to hurl a rock. And at that Emmeline is one of the very nicest women in England. | Dry Goods Millinery Fancy Goods Mrs. MW. W.

Caught Many Fur Beasts. Yrappers in Itasca and nearby counties are reported to have} earned about $100,000 by their eatch of furs this season. Individ-| ual dealers and agents have paid out as high as $10,000 each to thee men engaged in trapping or middle men to whom they sold hteir pelts. Middlemen handle much of the fur of this country, practically every business house that deals with the hunters getting its share. Muskrats, mink, weasels, and skunks supply the best of the furs in this section. Two or three sil- ver grey foxes, of a quality below the best, were caught, and many skins of wolves and common foxes were in the bag. The agents who make this coun- try represent houses in the Twin Cities, New York, Chicago and oth- er fbig centers. Curing a Suffragette. London, March 25.—Miss Lillian Lenton, the suffragist who was re- leased from Holloway prison after having been refused bail by a magistrate, has made a statement as to her experiences, following up- on her hunger strike. It will be remembered that Miss Lenton was eharged on suspicion with the burning down of Kewtea pavilion. She} saysq “On Saturday last I was forcibly fed in Holloway prison. There wer two doctors and about seven ward- resses. I struggled with the ward- resses, but was overpowered and tied in a chair. But I went on struggling the whole time after that. They pulled my head :back- ward across the back of the chair by my hair, which I resisted by wriggling my head about. “Finally, one doctor got the nas- al tube partly down, but I managed to get it up out of the nose be- fore they poured anything down. Then it was introduced again, a soup forced down my throat. When I was released I fainted.
