Secure Search Warrant.

Late yesterday afternoon, Norman
A. Pearson appeared before Justice
Chamberlin and applied for search
warrant for the premises of H. J. a.
Clair who has a ranch at Sunnyside,
alleging that LaClair held heifer
which belonged to him and had re-
fused to give it up or TO allow Pear
son to recover the animal, ordering
him away from the ranch with
threats of violence. The warrant was
Issued.
1t appears that some time ago Pear
son lost a two year old heifer, which
be claims strayed away form his
ranch. The heifer Was found by Nick
LaFrance, who turned it over to La
Clair whom he believed to be the
owner. Pearson advertised for the
animal for some time and at last
heard that it was at the LaClair
raoch. On visiting the ranch he wa
ordered away and told to keep ava!
If he would avoid trouble, and Pear
son secured the search warrant.

Steamer Wallace Sold.

A. Backlund and Frank Pipgras,
owners of the steamer Wal ace which
was launched at the johnson Boat
works this spring, have disposed of
their property to the Stack
Gibbs Lumber company at toe price
of $1,000. The company will use

the machinery having been ordered.
The new boat will be built on the
same lines as the Wallace, but will bS
much larger and more powerful, hav'

pared for the new boat which will b.
built by Mr.. p. w. johnson, of thu

Modern Business Economies

The Lake Steamer Pierpont Morpan was laden with l1,50O tons iron ore at the Mesaba docks Monday in three and one-half hours. Allowing for two shifts made to distribute the load, the ore must have come aboard at the rate of n ton and quarter every second. all by machinery. To load, haul one mile and unload ll,50O tons of fine ore wonld take man with horse tip-cart and scoop-shovel ten years.
 The huge size of the boats. the econ omy of fuel in running them, the entire disuse of handlabor, from scoopinc up the ore to casting the billet of steel. carry economy of production to the highest perfection yet achieved. One further step is to be taken by the erect. ion of steel-making city, Gary, on the shore of Lake Michigan, to avoid rail transportation of ore.
 Machine making of steel is only typ teal of American shrewdness in cheap ening other processes. The Standard Oil Company makes over one hundred articles of use and sale out of the once discarded refuse of petroleum refining. The cyanide process of gold extraction makes it profitable to work over the crushed quartz "tailings" of wasteful old mines. Electrical transmission of power to shops that need no longer maintain separate engines is practical cooperation of the most valuable kind to the community.

JuDez<kNEw THE VOICE.
Speaker Neatly Turned
Laugh on Interrupter.

The last big rally of Bay state Re-
publicans is generally held in Lynn,
Mass, the day before the election.
Senator Lodge is always looked for
that night and never fails to appear.
The Lynn theater was packed to
ioverfiowing, and when the witty Judge
got up to introduce the speaker, he
was cheered to the echo.
But the gathering was not without
some Democratic enthusiasts, who had
come there to make their preference
known, and in the middle of one of
the judges most eloquent periods one
of them called for three cheers for
the Democrats.
The judge looked inquiringly in the
direction of the interrupter, and in the
attitude of man who suddenly re-
calls something said
II have heard that voice before, but
/ didn't know his time was cup"
The spontaneous roar and applause
of the vast audience was evidence
enough of appreciation of the joke,
and the voice of the interrupter was
hushed.

Didn't Like His tombstone.

w. w. Mayes of near Thompson,
who is in his eighty-eighth year, has
sued his daughter, Mrs. Eliza Owens,
for $3.50, which he claims he loaned
her, to be returned when he requested
it, says the Columbia Herald.
Mrs. Givens acknowledges that the
money was paid to her to purchase a
tombstone and to meet her fathers
funeral expenses at his death. The
money was given to Mrs. Owens years
ago, and it was in gold. Recently Mrs.
Givens bought monument for her
father for use when he should die,
paying $50 for it, and her father saw it
and approved of the bargain. But
lately he changed his mind about the
matter, and the action was recently
taken into court. The jury awarded
plaintiff judgment in the amount of
$50, defendant to pay the costs.
