As we were passing through town
a few days ago we witnessed 4 lady
glazing windows and putting on storm
windows. our first exclamation was
;,las the poor widow; but on closer
view we found that she was no widow
ut all. Comment is unnecessary.

- The l--ver has commenced ~ d..
rive for the new depot. We tried to
persuade them that brick building
would be far better and safer, but the
railroad company seemed to think
they knew their own business best.
We have almost given up trying 10
make railroad company do anything
only Just what they like.
The public is hereby notified that
the North Star entertalDment COM
lany will postpone their engagements
at Morris indefinitely, on account of
mistake made by the Twin City
Calcium Light Company" at Mime
apolls, in sending empty gas cylinders
instead of charged ones. To repay
the people Of Norris for their dis
appointment, they will show at Morris
some time in the spring producing
Il much more attractive musical and
illustrated programme.
a change of agents has taken place
at the Manitoba depot here. Mr.. l..
A. Hamblin takes the place of Mr..
Rogers. Mr.. Rogers has been very
popular here, giving entire satisfac-
tiOn to all having dealings with him,
and the people of Morris regret to see
him leave. Mr.. Hamblin has been
agent ut Hancock, his promotion
proves that he is capable of filling the
bill. He bears an excellent reputa-
tion in his former home. We bid
himself and family hearty welcome
to Morris.
1t is reported that DR.. Heenan is On
his way from Oddessa, Russia; he
having resigned his position as U. s.
consul there. We may again have
him located among us here. Such
has been the tenor of some of his
letters to friends here, and there are
MANY in Stevens county who hope
that it may be so. The presence of
the always happy doctor would in-
spife new life in political and social
circles hereabouts. He was always
the soul of wit and good humor, quail
tiles which 1T is probable that his res.
idence abroad has not affected.
Pennsylvania hard coal Is delivered
at Duluth for 1915 per ton, the
freight being but Is cents per ton
from Erie to Duluth, all Summer.
If the projected railroad from Cham
berlain, s. D., via Ortonville and
Morris should make direct route to
Duluth, we ought to get coal at a lit
tie less than $500 per ton. $500 for
freight and handling ofless than $500
worth OF goods would almost make a
patient farmer groan. This road
might help US on other freight as we'll
as coal, and if so, the sooner it comes
the better, provided it don't pool
with other roads.
