Warberg, living west of Cohasset died early this morning.

Chris Warberg was 20 years of age and has been the driver of the Cohasset-Grand Rapids school bus this year. The funearl arrange- ments have not yet been made, but it will probably be Friday or Saturday this iweek. The County Sunday School conven- tion held at the Methodist church last Friday afternoon and evening was well attended and was voted a suc- e in every way. At the evening | session A. T. Powell, state worker, of St. Paul, gave on interesting ad- dre his subject being “The Or- ganized Adult Bible Class.” There were nineteen out-of-town delegates, present.

Houghton, Mich., Jan. 27.—A motion to quash the conspiracy indictments against copper mine strikers and offi- cials of the Western Federation of Miners was filed by attorneys for the accused men when the men were ar- raigned for trial in the Houghton circuit court. tered until the motion has been heard and passed on. The grand jury was illegally summoned and conduct- er, it is contended. A. W. Kerr, for the defendants, said that later he would apply for a change of venue in the strike cases.

LATTER DENIES CHARGE Accused of Submitting Recent State- | ment on California Alien Land Act | to Secretary Bryan Before Reading It to Nippon Legislators. Tokio, Jan. 27.—Attacks made on the Japanese government by the op- position in connection with the Cali- fornia land ownership legislation and the recently disclosed Japanese naval contract scandals were continued dur- ing the discussion of the budget in! the house of representatives. Saburo Shimada, one of the opposi- tion leaders, declared that the Japa- nese government had shown Foreign Secretary Baron Nobuaki Makino’s speech to the American government before its delivery to the Japanese parliament. | He said this information had come} from special correspondents in the| | United States, and. if true, it was in- | jurious to Japan’s national dignity. Baron Makino, in reply, denied hav- | ing submitted his speech to Washing- | ton. He added that Japan was mak- jing her best efforts to reach a solu- tion of the California question. Referring to the naval scandal, inj which the name of Vice Admiral Ki chi Fujii, former Japanese naval at- tache in Berlin, had been mentioned | as having been offered commissions on contracts obtained by a German electrical concern, Bzron Makino said he had requested a report on the sub- ject from the Japanese ambassador | to Germany. SAY IT’S TIME TO GO AHEAD Chicago Men Find Business Condi- tions Improved. Chicago, Jan. 27.--Business condi- tions in Chicago and throughout the| ; country are decidedly better than | they were a short time ago. The pres- ent looks like a good time to “go ahead.” That, in brief, is a summary | of the views expressed by a number | |of bankers, manufacturers and mer- | chants. | Since Jan. 1 several thousand men who were laid off late in 1913 have | been put back to work in various in-| 1 | dustries. | | Among the points advanced as indi- ' cating an active business year are: | The seeming certainty that the rail. | roads will be granted an advance of 5| | per cent in freight rates; more plen-| | tiful supply of money and lower rates | of interest; coming inauguration of j the new system of regional reserve | banks, which is counted on “to make | panics impossible,” and better under- | standing between business men and the administration. |PLAN HITS AT PATRONAGE Senator Works Would Have Com- mission Fill Vacancies. Washington, Jan. 27.—Federal ap- pointments was the subject of a speech in the senate by Senator Works of California on his bill to provide for a committee appointed by the president to receive and pass upon all applications and recom- | mendations for appointment to fed- eral office. The measure would forbid members of congress to recommend applicants or aid in obtaining positions. Senator Works explained that his bill was intended to relieve the presi- dent and members of congress from the burdens of recommending and ap- pointing the thousands of officers throughout the country; to bring about the appointment of more com- petent men and women. The time taken up by the president and members of congress in consider- ing matters of patronage, he said, was enormous, and should be devoted to more important public service. : ORDER FLOWERS Thru local dealers or Agents when possible, but insist on DULUTH FLORAL CO. goods and service—the best in Duluth without argu- ment, when it comes to Wedding Boquets or Emblems for Funerals. \o WAY. ~ OF JAP MINISTER | whenever he wants it by a crafty ruse. | it meets the water. ® OOOO-OO- $ THE HOUSE ACROSS THE : Th is a house across the last year childish shouts were heard, But all is silent there today Save for the sadly whispered word.

But not a child is sliding now, And all is sadly still today. & A shadow seems to rest somehow Upon the house across the way. No child peers from the window there To see the postman come and pass. No toys are piled in corners where The doors last year were locked, alas! Within the house across the way No pleasing, festive signs appear. They speak in whispers there today And have no thought of Christ- mas cheer. —S. E. Kiser in Chicago Record- Herald. OOOO OOOOOOO, Panama Canal. It is more than probable that the building of the Panama canal would never have been possible but for the discovery by Dr. Jesse Lazear of the United States army. who, by the way. sacrificed his life while making the ex- | periments leading to the iscovery, that yellow fever was transmitted by the bite of the deadly stegomia mos- quito.. But for that wonderful and timely discovery the mortality and at- tendant misery of the fever would have been a handicap too great to have been borne.—New York American. One Way to Make a Living. In the vicinity of the London docks there is a man who makes money He fills an old port wine bottle nearly up to the neck with water, then he pushes an old cork down the neck until The small space above is filled with good port wine at a cost of about sixpence, and a cork is gently placed in the top. He soon finds on the streets who after sam- pling the wine is willing to forfeit a few shillings for the bottle. whereupon the sharper speedily vanishes before the deception is discovered.—Shefiield Telegraph. Dr. Larson She ... Optometrist IS AT THE POKEGAMA HOTEL THE ISTH AND 16TH EVERY MONTH LONDON’S QUEER MARKET. All Its Wares Are Strewn Upon the Cobbled Pavements. There are many queer markets scat- tered over the face of the globe, but London, among its many other unique features, is the proud possessor of what is perhaps the strangest and most extragrdinary of them all. At the Caledonia market, Islington, whence the great metropolis draws a large proportion of its meat supply, the cobbled pavements, with their count- less rows of white fenced pens, are usually given up to the display of fat stock, but Fridays “a change comes o'er the spirit of the dream.” The cobbled pavements are there, the white pens stil! break up the wide expanse, but no cattle or sheep are to be seen. On that day the great market is giv- en over to a throng of miscellaneous traders, whose wares provide the most amazing contrasts imaginable. There is nothing in the whole gamut of hu- man devices and needs which one may not come across displayed in some odd collection set forth on the cobblestones. The traders use few counters or stalls. Each of them, whether he has a stock worth three or four hundred pounds or a few rusty old bolts and spindles which one might reasonably expect to purchase for a shilling or two, dumps his wares on the pavement of the mar- ket. Moreover, at this remarkable place there are markets within mar- kets, each taking its regular turn and place duri: ; the day and then packing up and yiuishing. The market was opened by Prince Albert, Queen Victo- ria’s conso:t, about sixty years ago.— Wide World Magazine. “Dear me, Tom, you eat a good deal for a little fellow,” remarked Uncle John to his nephew. “T s’pect I aren’t so little inside as I look outside,” was Tom’s ingenious IK tl \ | \\ a | | \ aX = Good Roads For Telephone Talk The goed roads movement has not been confined to ghways. Everywhere the Bell Telephone has covered the country with ‘‘good roads’? for tele- the hi phone talk. There are 13 million miles of these ‘‘good tele- ] | phone roads”’ in the Bell System, running hundreds and thousands of miles, connecting industrial and commercial centers everywhere.

A Scottish naturalist in Edinburgh has recently given to the world some interesting facts which go to show how animals as well as human beings re- spond to the lure of the sea and how they will travel sometimes for hun- dreds of miles to answer its call and then push on into its waters to their own destruction. The most curious example ofthis tendency is found in the seaward mi- gration of the small brown, molelike lemmings. These animals will at cer- tain times leave the highlands of Scan- dinavia and march in vast hordes to- ward the lowlands; moving only by night and following the general trend of the valleys. They hold tenaciously to the general direction in which they set out and are diverted neither by streams nor by moderately sized lakes. Eventually, after a march lasting from one to three years, the army, devastat- ed, of course. by many foes. reaches the sea, but not for its own good, for, queerly enough, the end of the journey is not attained. and many of the little animals push on into the waters, ful- filling to their own destruction the un- accountable impulse to push forward. Other creatures likewise are known to fall under the spell of the sea. Itis rather commonly known how the Eu- ropean reindeer will spend the hard weather of winter on the highlands of Scandinavia and Russia and feed spar- ingly on snow covered moss and li- Phens and then in summer, in spite of the fact that food has become more plentiful inland, wil! forsake these haunts for the seaccast. — Chicago Tribune. All Hail the Child! By DAVID H. GREER, Protestant Episcopal Bishop of the Diocese of New York. Christmas is the day of the child both in sentiment and doctrine. It is the day when the child is on the throne and when he reigns supreme. Willing- ly and gladly, with our gifts and pres- ents, we pay our tribute to him. For this one day in the year at least the heart rules the head, and we learn therefrom the lesson which it is the ultimate aim of all theological doctrine to enforce—that we must as little chil- dren enter the kingdom of heaven. Before and After, They say it comes but once a year And when it comes it brings good cheer, But what it leaves along its trail I try to write, but always fail.
