DR.. Fulton was summoned and after
working q short time he left both
very much better aud entirely out of
danger The only solution which
Mr.. and Mrs. Asphalt can give of
their illness Is that it was something
eaten at breakfast, probably the cof-
fee. DR.. fulton said there was a
slight irritation of the alimentary
canal as in case of poisoning and that
a small amount of poison had prob
ably gotten into the food some way,
but he was not certain whether it
wos the milk or coffee. 1t was an
unfortunate experience but might
easily have been more serious.

DR.. johnson Sells to Lenhart.

As stated in these columns some
time ago, Mr.. Lenhart, who recently
located at LaHarpe, is trader from
Wayback. He began trading in an
early day and snapped teething rings
with another baby at the age of six
months to such good advantage that
he has kept up the trick ever since
Hence it is that when he approached
DR.. johnson, who has the new drug,
store on the north side, and painted
in glowing terms the financial, physi-
cal and intellectual advantages to the
doctor were he to move to Wellsville,
Kan. the doctor coIld not withstand
the siren and the trade was consul
mated. Mr.. Lenhart has just put in
a stock of hardware at LaHarpe,
moved from Leavenworth to their
new building, and today he hauled
the drug stock and fixtures there
also. DR.. Johnson and his family
have been here too short time to
get much acquainted, but those who
have met the DOCTORS family are very
sorry indeed to lose them so soon.
They expect to leave for their new
home ABOUT the middle of next week
and the sincere good wishes of the
REGISTER follow them.

BIG MINING DEAL.

Large Group to h Turned Over to the
Oliver People.
MINNEAPOLIS, April Ga special to
The Journal says: What will be the
largest transaction in the Mesaba range
iron mines that has been made since
the speculative boom which attended
it's early development collapsed, is now
being negotiated by the Oliver Mining
company. In fact, it is more than
probable that the deal has already been
closed and that Franklin, Bessemer and
Virginia mines, which compose what il
known as the Franklin group; the Du.
luth mine, q steam shovel property at
Biwabik, and the Pillsbury, q new
mine opened during the past winter by
the Consolidated, will be turned over
to the Oliver people within q few days.
The franklin group on the 1esaba
range is the property Of Rockefeller
and Corrigan. The first shipment from
this property was made in 1898, since
which time its actual output has been
81, 853 tons. Conditions were such last
year that little was done with 1t, only
80,l28 tons being shipped. Its owners
have been very much discouraged be.
cause Of their inability to operate at q
profit and have complained bitterly be.
cause Of the high freight rates which
they have claimed have destroyed the
value Of their investment. The sale Of
the mine relieves Franklin Rockefeller
Of all Of his holdings in the Minnesota
ranges and removes him as q possible
plaintiff in ore freight rate litigation.
