Death Claimed George A. Forester as
A Victim Saturday Evening.

Last Saturday evening, shortly
after the sun sank in the West, the
spirit OF George A. Forester took its
flight into the great beyond. The
announcement Of his death was
received with sadness by the friends
OF the young man in this city
The deceased came to this city
only last July, with his brother,
W.. j. Forester. They purchased
the Riverside flour mill, and it was
their intention to develop the
industry, the deceased being a
practical miller
Nearly two years ago lie had a
severe attack Of the grippe which.
with other complications, developed
into consumption. For the past
three months he has been almost
entirely unable to attend the business,
leaving it in the hands of his elder
brother. While his death was ex-
pected none of the family or friends
thought that the sad event would
happen SO soon.
Only lastSaturday his fatheriarrived
from Canada a few hours before his
death. He was conscious up to the
last, and recognized the members OF
the family.
George A. Forester was born at
Toronto, Canada, in 1853, and was
81 years of age. Some years ago he
went into the milling business at
Moorhcad where he remained until
coming to Little Falls last July.
The funeral was held this after
noon at 2 O'Clock from the residence
The Increment was in the Oakland
cemetary, Rev. William Moore, o
the congregational church preaching
the sermon.

WOOD IS SCARCE.
Dry Maple Selling for $3.50 Per
Cord. Prices for Other Kinds
In Proportion.

tfall Of about Il foot Of snow at
present time wonld DO more than
most anything else to make business
brisk. The farmers living at any
distance from the city are waiting
until the shedding is good before
coming to town to DO business.
This is particularly true Of those
having wood for sale.
Just at present there is y decided
scarcity of wood in the market, and
what there is. is selling at at,
unusually high price. It is all brought
to the city on wagons. The price
asked for dry maple is $3.50 Il load,
and as there is not over two thirds
OF a. cord to a load, it brings the
price up to about $3.50 pcr'cor;l.
Dry oak is selling at about the
same price. There is none to much
OF either kind for sale and those who
have failed tOput in q supply are
praying for snow in hopes that the
price will he little more reasonable.
The Polaniers, who have most of
the wood rsale, are perfectly aware
OF the situation ana are holding the
price Of the wood stiff at $3.50.

A Coed Job.

The idea has some preyalency that
the job of representative to the legis-
lature is not legitimately aprofitable
one, but Il little figuring will demon
strate that such a notion is erro-
neous; and it can also be proven that
at least some of the st. Paul estab-
lishments appreciate what is wanted.
Members elect have received an offer
from a firm that agrees to furnish
lodgings and baths for January, Feb
ruary and March for the sum of $15
payable in advance). The location
is central, and we learn it is on the
best free lunch route in the city. A
slight change in the proposition
would make it very alluring; the
right to baths could be relinquished
and in it's place the privilege
be given to lodge visiting friends OF
the statesman. In addition to this
Senator Buchanan suggests that some
arrangement be made by which said
visitors he provided with return tic
kets without expense to the member.
Whether this could he better done
through the landlord or the North
ern Pacific we are not quite sure, but
we are inclined to place good deal
of confidence in the Northern Pacific:
innocently, perhaps, but we trust
'em.
Thirteen cents a day for expenses
leaves a profit Of $4.S7, and after de-
Quoting the SCOT cost to place the
name on the ticket in the four coun-
ties, there is still a handsome balance
left to he added to the wealth of our
booming city. The prospect is thus
good that outside capital will con-
tinue to be brought to Little Falls in
considerable quantities.

Where Was Biela.

Last evening was decidedly cloudy
and foggy. On that account it was
impossible to see the promised dis
play of falling stars. A large num-
Der OF persons, however, remained up
until after ten O'Clock, in hopes of
seeing some signs of the comet Bella.
They were disappointed, as nothing
extraordinary happened to indicate
the presence of celestial visitor.
The fog cleared away shortly after
ten, but at that time, as far as could
be told none OF the stars in the heav-
ems had fallen or changed position.
Most persons went to bed well
satisfied that Biela had failed to put
in an appearance and run bump up
against old Mother Earth.

Benolkin's Tin Relieved of S. in the
Absence of the Bartender.

Yesterday afternoon young fellow
about nineteen years Of age went
into Benolkin's saloon on BroadN ay,
and wanted to write a letter. He
was given pen and paper, but did no
writing. Nothing was thought OF
the matter at the time, and in fact
but little attention was paid to him:
The bartender was called OUT of the
room for a moment and the fellow
took the opportunity to open the
till and help himself to five dollars.
He left before the theft was dis
covered.
When the money was missed Nick
Gross started on a search for him
He was found at the depot as he was
about to take the train. At first he
denied all knowledge of the matter,
but finally admitted his gnilt and
gave up the money. He was allowed
to leave town.
